Great food, beautiful atmosphere, very nice attentive service. I would definitely come back!

Art Lunch is absolutely a delightful place to go to. The cafe is clean and organized. It has chill vibes. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. They have a wide selection of food, drinks and desserts. The menu includes daily specials, breakfast specials, omelettes, quesadillas, burritos, pancakes, sandwiches and rolls , French toast, grilled toast sandwiches, lunch signature, lunch main course, pasta, salads, soups, desserts and more. Everything looks tempting and irresistible. We ordered the following: - Salmon Croissant 5/5 The croissant was flaky and buttery enriched with the smoky flavor of salmon and the creaminess of ranch - Ciabatta Caprese 5/5 It had fresh mozzarella with juicy tomato , pesto sauce, and fresh basil. My goodness! It was a piece of art! - Pistachio Baklava 5/5 Rich, nutty, flaky and had perfect sweetness. - Chocolate Cake 5/5 Moist, chocolatey, fluffy and decadent. The staff were very welcoming and genuinely warm. The service was excellent. We had such a great experience at Art Lunch. Definitely, I will be back more times. read more

Stopped by here for lunch after checking out Olive Young. It was a quick walk there, but the blazing sun during the heat wave got us stressing lol. Thank god there's AC inside because it made the vibe a whole lot better. My girl got a veggie cheese sandwich and I got some pancakes. The food was good. The pancakes was thick and fluffy. It's an extra dollar for Maple Syrup. The sandwich tastes very refreshing and clean. You can tell they use fresh ingredients in their food. Gotta come back next time to try more food! read more

Really did not enjoy my experience at Art Lunch today. - no air conditioning - limited seating for parties larger than 2 - limited restrooms - my pancakes were raw in the middle - maple syrup is an added $2 - eggs were dry and rubbery I came with a party of 4 and it was very hot and uncomfortable inside. They don't have air conditioning and leave the door open in the hot summer. We each got an entree that was about $24.99 each. Maple syrup for the pancakes is an additional $2. But the pancakes without the syrup would have been difficult to eat. If you ask for syrup after you ordered, they give you table syrup. Berries did not seemed washed. You have to ask for ketchup, cutlery, water, pretty much everything. Servers are slow and not very friendly/warm. Portions are large but it's not good so that doesn't make up for much. read more

This place is basically our canteen! We come every day, the menu is very good and has plenty of choice. We eat outside on their cute terrace. Lovely place. Thanks read more

Art Lunch - BBQ Chicken Salad - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

The food is great, and the service friendly and fast. I really like the ambiance: fresh and homey at the same time.

Very pleasant ambience, welcoming staff, the coffee was very good as was the breakfast we ordered.

It just got better and better as I walked in and ordered then eat and paid. All five star experience. I walked it a small beautiful and clean cafe in Pasadena . Fist impression it might be pricey. BUT ! Lunch specials and other plated even less pricy than most places I have been. Quality of food was homemade . Usually I don't use this term loosely. But here you can actually see the chef and she is making it fresh. I checked . Music was spot on for this type of Cafe . Service was out of this world and the guys working there very kind and knowledgeable. It's downtown Pasadena and parking is on you. All these for under 18$ ?????? HOW ??? Highly recommend for lunch or date . One of top tear places that deserves 6 star read more

Visited art lunch today and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food and service. The menu has variety of options, it's diverse and inclusive. They also serve plenty of healthy options. People who work there are sweet and attentive, costumer service is on a different level. We were also treated with complimentary watermelon and blueberries. We ordered English breakfast and Armenian breakfast and both were exceptional. Highly recommend to stop for brunch or simply for tea or coffee since they have a wide range of dessert options. Will definitely be back! read more

Slightly underwhelming. The visit didn't start off on a great foot. I arrived at 7 when they opened and I stood at the front waiting, there were 2 workers in the back that saw me and didn't say anything. 7 minutes later someone comes up to the front door and unlocks it. I gather the staff that was already in the building are not front of house but seeing as how they saw me it would have been courteous to acknowledge me and let me know the opener should be arriving shortly. I was picking up a Too Good To Go bag which was a good value, I received a sandwich, croissant, and one other pastry. Since I was there I ordered a hot matcha tea. I was disappointed to see him merely pour hot water into a paper cup and add matcha without the traditional whisking. That resulted in a not very smooth matcha. I will say they have a really cute space and what looks like some other really good items on their menu so it's a toss up if I would come back. The focaccia was not to my liking, the bread was ok. But the olives had a strange taste to them and while I like spice there was a strange spiciness to it that didn't pair well with the flavors. The sandwich I got was decent, it reminded me of a school lunch which was kind of nostalgic. I beefed it up with a few home ingredients which made it better but I will say I really loved the ciabatta they use. Overall they are average, if in the area I might stop in but wouldn't go out of my way read more

Such a cool find! We were initially going for lunch but they had a breakfast burrito special that was too hard to resist! Their American Breakfast was absolutely stacked to the max with protein, eggs, and it even came with pancakes! I tried their bacon burrito and it wasn't greasy at all. The cheese blend worked very well with the eggs and potato and balanced out the bacon. The staff were really nice and patient with us. Definitely my next visit when I come back! read more

Randomly decided to go into this place when we needed a quick snack and it was such a good new find. Would so go again and get a latte and work there. Anyways their matcha puff was very yummy! It wasn't too flaky, but it was airy and not overly sweetened so I really did like it. Would go back and try their actual meals that are on the menu. read more

Art Lunch - Honey Cake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

Got a sandwich to go last weekend, with a side. The first thing I would have to say is the bread is very fresh I would have to assume they make it fresh on site. The way the bread cracks on the onside and softness on the inside, you know that it's fresh. The fillings, pretty typical of a deli sandwich. I got a turkey sandwich. The sandwich is a nice size at a good price. I got a greek salad on the side. This had really nice big chunks of tomato's, feta, cucumber, onion capers etc. it was very tasty. Since this place is located in old Pasadena, parking is going to be in garage and you'll will have to walk there. This place seems more popular for breakfast, so that is what I will be trying next. read more

We were actually going to go grab some ice cream in downtown Pasadena after hanging out at the convention center for Cat Con but after walking past by, we saw that they had a pretty decent lunch special deal and we wanted to grab it within the last 30-40 or so minutes before they closed. Yay for spontaneous adventures! Service was friendly and they were accommodating to people even if they were entering in the last 5 minutes. As this place also doubles as a bakery though, just know that some things are sold out towards the end of the day or cannot be feasibly concocted for you for take out without disgustingly extending their hours. But that's just common sense though, right? Hopefully. Either way, the restaurant is quite cute and has a little bit of fancy flair to it. I can see it being a great place to grab a coffee and pastry or to have a fancy brunch to catch up with someone. Or if you just want to sit back and relax or catch up on some work or studying. It's refreshing mix of wood, brick, and greenery. For the lunch special that drew us in, we got the: Armenian Breakfast. Pretty unique as you can get either the standard American breakfast, or you can be more adventurous and get French, English (complete with baked beans), or the Armenian like we did. The Armenian Breakfast we got included: a choice of 2 eggs (we got over easy, feta cheese, Armenian gata (an Armenian sweet bread pastry), their homemade bread, green salad with vinaigrette, potato wedges, and a coffee. Boyfriend got the iced coffee no sugar and it helped him wake up from the midafternoon sleepies. Pretty sizeable dish and easily shareable if you want to eat something else in downtown a bit later. Bread was delicious and went great dipping into the egg yolk. The gata was a bit dry, but I'm sure you're supposed to enjoy this with the coffee. I'm a sucker for potatoes so I just snacked on these throughout the entire meal. You can never go wrong with breakfast and you can't go wrong with eating it here. read more

Wow, this is my dream restaurant! Healthy, yummy fresh food, friendly staff and beautiful interior. They have incredible baked goods, salad sandwiches, and even gluten-free cupcakes! Great vibes. I'll be back. read more

We found this place by chance by seeing an instagram advertisement by a YouTuber, the cafe is on Colorado street. Very clean and trendy. The food quality does not disappoint. We tried the Armenian omelette and omg it was awesome! Highly recommended! The drinks were great, the drip coffee was high quality. They have a good variety of pastries, macaroons and baklava. The Best part was the service provided by the two kind young gentlemen, Aro and Vahag. They were very professional and attentive, even it was busy and it was only two of them there. Loved this place and definitely will come back... read more

Art Lunch is my go-to spot in Pasadena for a solid, healthy meal. Their menu is full of fresh vegetables and delicious lean protein options, and when I'm craving something sweet, their pastries are AMAZING. What makes Art Lunch special, though, is the people. Hakob, the owner, runs his business with genuine care and consideration for his customers--he always greets me when I walk in and takes the time to recognize familiar faces. Aro at the register is just as wonderful: always kind, welcoming, and a pleasure to catch up with. It really feels like a family here, and you sense it the moment you walk through the door. read more

Walked in and Nelly Furtado was playing, immediately knew I loved this place! The employee working was very kind, card declined and they let me pay in cash. The service was above and beyond my expectations! The seating is wonderful, you can see the lovely outdoors from any table! The food was absolutely amazing, the fruit was fresh and zesty, the pancakes were soft yet crisped, and the chorizo burrito had real chorizo and was absolutely delicious! The strawberries were topped with a strawberry syrup, and overall the food was excellent. Will definitely be coming back soon and recommending this gem to friends read more

On a recent visit to Los Angeles and specifically Pasadena, I found this gem of a cafe. I travel a lot for work and always like to find a good quality breakfast burrito. This place has lots of options for breakfast burritos. The barista was also able to make a specific coffee for me that wasn't on the menu. Staff were friendly and attentive. I even scored a complimentary cinnamon bun which was delicious. The salads looked good too. Will definitely be back. Relaxing vibe, light colours and fresh decor. If you are looking for a breakfast/lunch spot, check out Art Lunch in Pasadena. Definitely worth it! read more

Honestly, not very impressed with this place. First things first let's talk about the welcoming I received from the young guy working....not a hello how are you nothing and no acknowledgment from the other lady that was working It was straight up What do you need? I had mentioned that I had two, too good to go orders to pick up. Immediately He had them bagged which had me a little red flagged because was the stuff just sitting there? Indeed the stuff was just sitting there. I ordered two different boxes, a lunchbox and a sandwich box and I will say the best thing out of both of my boxes was the cinnamon roll. Damn good cinnamon roll must I say but let's talk about the salads. They gave me two salads one in each box of the same kind however one had absolutely no feta cheese and one had like a piece and half they were very very stingy with the feta. They gave me an Italian sandwich for the sandwich box, but for the other box, they gave me half of a super soggy veggie wrap and when I say veggie wrap I mean literally all lettuce and some tomatoes. It was very disappointing. No sauce on the side or anything. I'm just curious how a business like this is supposed to attract more customers when they offer items like that to people that have never even truly heard of their restaurant. Most customers on too good to go to genuinely trying new restaurants and not being cheap and getting a cheaper meal. We just want to try a new places so it was a little bit disappointing that they cut corners this bad to the people genuinely inquiring about the food here. read more
