Small cute coffee shop in Pasadena. It's pretty small on the inside but has some indoor and outdoor seating. There's a small attached parking lot but if it's full, hard to find parking. The ube foam cold brew is so good and the ube complements the coffee perfectly. The pandan latte is so balanced and is so good. Will definitely be back! read more

Came in to do some work and it is a cute little spot. They have their own parking lot so that was a plus. They have tables and seats inside and outside. You could order from a kiosk or the cashier. I got the pandan cookie and the butterfly pea fizz. The cookie was pretty good. It was crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle. The drink was also good. I wasn't feeling a coffee but I still needed a pick me up and this was a good choice. It was sweet and a little sour. Both items were very tasty! read more

Such a great cafe! Food: 10/10! Tried the seasonal matcha latte with strawberry cold foam... and I chugged it lol! Matcha latte had a very strong matcha flavor and the strawberry cold foam was amazing! It didn't overpower anything and it was incredible! I was recommended the Ube cornflake caramel brownie and it's something I've never had before! So yummy and would come back and crave it! Service: 10/10! Kind employees who took my siblings' order and whoever expedited my order was fantastic :) Ambiance: 10/10! Cute interior and place was packed with people studying/working. Overall, my siblings and I loved it and we will definitely be coming back! (Maybe next week since we have a weekly sibling hangout lol read more

I was in the Pasadena area and wanted an Einspanner latte. I did a quick search and Dash came up. There's a small parking lot connected which is great, especially in Pasadena. Upon entering the barista was very welcoming and kind. My drink was quickly made and while good it wasn't quite an Einspanner. There were about four small tables inside and really cool speciality snacks. read more

This place is adorable! I was in the area and came across Dash, and if you are nearby you should come visit! Tiny parking lot but there seemed to be some street parking nearby. I got the Pandan Latte w/ oatmilk half sweet and it was delicious! I love that they make their Pandan syrup in house there are also a few outlets and cute bench seating if you need to lock in and get some work done. Will def be back to try some of their food options/pastries too! Their staff was helpful and sweet. read more

Stumbled across this coffee spot after lunch. Overall cute with different types of drinks. Only downside is the parking. Parking lot is very small and so we had to circle around to find street parking. Inside is small but they do have a few tables. Staff greeted us and was friendly. I got the dirty Thai tea and it was interesting but in a good way. I also tried the matcha and it had a nice strong flavor. I'm interested to come back to try other things off the menu. read more

DISAPPOINTED. I walked into the store at 9:20 am on a Wednesday and no greeting from two girls working there. Only when my friend told them we're here for a pickup, then they said it's behind the counter and tell them our name. No smile expression. I'm not sure. Drink has no sweetness? Or has it always been minimal. Pandan matcha (hot) does not have pandan flavor Matcha einspanner has good cream that doesn't mix with the drink (I only mixed it because the drink wasn't sweet, I usually don't mix and drink it from the lid). read more

The staff here were all really nice and welcoming, which made the visit pleasant from the start. Place was also clean! As for the drinks, they were just okay overall. I tried the pandan matcha -- the pandan flavor was strong and really tasty, but it definitely overpowered the matcha. If you're a big pandan fan, you'll probably enjoy it, but I was hoping for more balance. I also ordered the matcha einspanner. The cream top was delicious and I appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet. Unfortunately, the matcha underneath tasted pretty light and a bit watery, so the flavor didn't come through as much as I would've liked. Overall, a nice spot with friendly staff -- I just wish the matcha flavor was a little stronger! read more

I really enjoyed the matcha. I ordered a hot matcha. I was surprised it wasn't sweet at all? Maybe the iced one is sweet but the hot isn't? Either way I love the strong flavor. Still super good! Kinda small inside but has some outdoor seating. Saw people working on laptops but I feel like this is a nicer place to just sit and enjoy coffee rather than work. read more

A cute little cafe in a small plaza! There's both indoor and outdoor seating, and I can see it being perfect for studying or working. The staff were friendly. The matcha latte was $7 and pretty good. I had to ask for an extra cup of syrup since the standard sweetness wasn't very sweet, but the matcha flavor itself was tasty. My friend got a spam sandwich and said it was delicious. I could definitely see myself coming back here. read more

Delicious matcha and super cute coffee shop! I ordered the hot matcha latte with the default whole milk and the matcha taste was both very strong and smooth, definitely a high quality latte. They also have a bunch of flavors that look interesting like the ube, jasmine, and pandan! Only con is that the parking lot is extremely small and fills up very quickly. read more

Heard a lot of good things about this place, and I was finally in the area to give this place a try. Cashier is very friendly and helpful. I ordered a Jasmine matcha latte. They use ceremonial grade matcha, and they are very generous of it. The taste of matcha is strong in the drink, which is what I like. I can taste a hint of jasmine too. It is very difficult to find coffee shops with strong matcha latte these day. I will come back again if I am in the area. Small parking lot outside of the store, but street parking is available. read more

The Pandan Latte was unfortunately a bit of a letdown. The pandan flavor was so subtle it tasted more like a slightly sweetened iced coffee. That said, the service is great and the interior is lovely. Dash is tucked away from the busy Lake Ave and Colorado Blvd, making it a nice, chill spot to read a book or get some work done. read more

Been here too many times to count. I don't drink coffee anymore, but I am obsessed with their new matcha series. The matcha cloud & jasmine matcha latte are worth the $! Baristas are friendly & they also have yummy pastries & baked goods for sale. They have a small free parking lot out front or street parking is quite easy (and also free) in this area. read more

Drinks are 10/10. Staff are always helpful. They actually have a lot of unique items such as exotic chip flavors and beers from Japan. You can order online and they always have it ready upon arrival. You can totally chill and do work or study here. Parking can be difficult although there is a lot. Love this spot. read more

We got the matcha einspanner with whole milk. First sip was great (typical creamtop), quite thick and a lot of it as well (good). Matcha itself was pretty light in taste, color was just okay, overall taste was just okay. Generally if you wanted a quick matcha fix, this is the place to go; however if you want a super star matcha I'd suggest just going to ktown! Service was chill and quick. Inside is cute with lots of Asian snacks, some desks to do work, and a nice outside area. read more

was super excited to try this place, however, we were slightly disappointed. our drinks were very light in matcha flavor and the color was not as dark green as the pictures. for a drink that's almost $8, you would expect a much stronger matcha flavor. the jasmine syrup was great though! not the worst place ever, but it was super average ordered: jasmine matcha latte matcha latte with cold foam read more

My friend and I were craving some matcha in Pasadena, and wanted to try somewhere new. This placed looked like it had a lot of good reviews so I came in with some high expectations. There are many other places in south pas that has better matchas. Got the ube matcha, subbed with oat milk and the drink was more or less $10 which was the most expensive matcha I've had. The drink only tasted like ube, not ube AND matcha which was very disappointing. The parking lot was smaller than expected but there are outdoor and indoor seating here. read more

Cool little coffee shop in Pasadena. I tried the Pandan latte. I thought it was pretty good, but my wife didn't like it so much. Tip: Parking is sort of tight here. You may need to park on the street. read more

Finally making our way through the Pasadena Coffee Passport and Dash was our first stop! Our friends separately recommended this spot for snagging some snacks and tasty flavored coffee. We walked over but there is a small lot for parking as well as some street spots. There was limited indoor seating and several on the patio. You can order at the kiosk or with the team. I'm on the quest for the best dirty matcha--this one did not disappoint! I got it with vanilla and oat milk; it was a great balance of flavor and gave a kick of caffeine without being over the top. My boyfriend got the pandan latte; he said it was one of the best flavored lattes he's had! We got a butter croissant and chocolate croissant. My chocolate croissant was tasty but a little dry, he rated his croissant a 6/10. read more

Parking: I parked on the street (the parking lane was in the middle of the one way street). I saw that there is a very small parking lot, but I read that most of the stalls are reserved for other businesses. Ambiance: the coffee shop had ample indoor seating and outdoor seating. The shop was very nicely decorated. Service: the service was ok, not the friendliest I've experienced. I walked up to the register and awkwardly stood there while two baristas were conversing amongst each other until a third barista came up to take my order. Drink: Pandan matcha latte (6/10)- the Pandan flavor definitely shined through and the level of sweetness was great. The matcha itself was alright, not my favorite selection. It wasn't very matcha-y, but also wasn't very creamy either. Also, the drink was $9, which is very expensive for a regular flavored matcha latte Ube Toffee Crunch cookie (10/10)- I really enjoyed the cookie! It's so flavorful and I love the soft chewy center. Unique flavor and creation! Would definitely purchase directly from cookie chaos! read more

Im not kidding when i say dash literally got me through college. Dash was the friend I made along the way... Looking back i'm so glad to have lived close by enough to walk here all the time. I got the same thing everytime -Einspanner was the one that changed me from a highschooler obsessed with milk tea to a college girl that needed tasteful caffeine all the time. Its so good. They got the textures of the cream just right and the taste hits the spot between a sweet whip and a bitter coffee. The service was always warm and quick. I love everyone that worked there yall are so cool and chill I lost my APPLE PENCIL HERE LOL and they looked for it and saved it until my next visit. so nice I had a cheesy chicken sandwich here that was godly on a autumn afternoon paired with , yes, an einspanner. Thank you dash ur the best Ps. get chim! thai food next door before or after for a PERFECT DAY!!! wifi? yes outlets? yes bathrooms? yes parking? yes in front of store and all over the streets read more

Dash coffee bar is a cool spot for local Pasadena vibes. The parking lot is tiny but there can be street parking near by. Pros: a really good matcha latte (one of the creamiest I've ever had & the perfect amount of sweetness). Minimal social interaction if that's your vibe and you order at the kiosk. Get a cool snack like a bag of chips from Thailand or another snack with a flavor you may haven't had before. Cons: not personable bc it seemed encouraged to order at the kiosk. On the pricier side for a drink. For oat milk, sweetener (it doesn't come sweetened as is), and a cold foam, it cost $11. That is wildly overpriced in my honest opinion. Not enough seating. 4 pairs of people can sit inside. Overall, I can see why people would like this place, but it's not my cup of tea. I can't afford to come to this place on a regular basis. read more

I was really looking forward to a vibrant, ceremonial grade matcha latte based on other Yelp photos, but my first drink was a letdown - it was overly milky and barely had any matcha color or taste. (Note: it comes unsweetened). Thankfully, the barista was incredibly accommodating. She readily adjusted my latte by using 75% of the milk (by my request), which made a huge difference in bringing out the matcha's flavor. She also recommended switching my cream foam to their matcha foam, which was subtly sweet and had a wonderful, authentic matcha taste. That was a game-changer! Having experienced truly high-quality matcha by making my own directly from Japan, I confess I'm quite particular. While this matcha is labeled ceremonial grade, it didn't quite match the depth of flavor I'm accustomed to. That said, with a quick chat with the barista and some minor tweaks, you can absolutely customize your drink to be excellent. Don't miss their other unique offerings! The iced coffee milk with coffee jelly is a standout - perfectly creamy, lightly sweet, and so enjoyable. We ordered this half sweet. read more

I definitely found my new favorite spot!! My sister found this place on Yelp so we decided to check it out and we were not disappointed at all!! I got the strawberry matcha (was good), my sister got the coconut matcha (was soo yummy & reminded me of a drink I had in Asia), and my friend got the biscoff latte (WHICH WAS TASTYYY & our fav)! They also sell Thai snacks/chips which I had to grab a few of. Service here was great! The ladies were so nice and quick with our drinks. There is an outdoor area and limited indoor tables to study/chill at. Will definitely be back!! read more

I came last weekend with my girl friends because we were craving matcha. At first glance, this place didn't look like much. But it's another case of don't judge a book by its cover because the inside was very cute and cozy. There was plenty of seating with pillows, making our yap sesh so enjoyable. I got the Iced Matcha Strawberry Latte ($7.50) and was kind of surprised to see how small the drink was when I got it. But again, don't judge a book by its cover. I think the drink was pretty good. The strawberry tasted fresh and the proportion of strawberry to matcha was perfect. BUT after 30 min to an hour, my stomach started to hurt, and not just mine.. but my other friends' stomachs started hurting too. We're thinking it could be the milk being left out for too long (2 of use got whole milk and 1 got almond). I'm not sure if I'd come back because the matcha here didn't really stick out to me compared to other places and it wasn't worth the stomach ache. read more

Oh where do I begin? The strawberry matcha latte is by far one of my favorite drinks ever. It's creamy while also having a strong matcha flavor. I have to hold myself back from drinking it all in 5 minutes. You can order on the kiosk or with a worker. The kiosk is much faster since the employees are usually busy making drinks. Service has always been good and every drink comes out delicious. The yuzu lemon refresher is tart yet incredibly refreshing. The shop itself is pretty small and seating inside is very minimal. They have clean bathrooms which is great. There's some seating right outside. Parking can be a bit of an issue because the parking lot is tiny and it's a one way street. Sometimes you have to loop around the whole block if you don't find parking or pass a spot. The matcha is worth the parking struggle. 10/10 I come every time I'm in the area. read more

I have been on the hunt for the best pandan matcha in the general LA area and this is it! Not overly sweet but you can still appreciate the subtle pandan flavor with the matcha. The hojicha latte was unfortunately just okay, be sure to get it slightly sweetened even if you aren't a sweets person as it was kind of milky. Decent amount of outdoor and indoor seating. Friendly staff. Parking can be tricky because they share a small lot with other businesses. I say grab a drink here and walk a couple blocks to the popular barkery just a few mins away for a perfect snack or breakfast. read more

I've had manyyy strawberry matcha lattes and this is by far one of my favs. The real strawberry puree on the bottom added a perfect level of sweetness that complimented the matcha well. Typically syrups give an unnatural sweetened flavor but their, what seemed homemade strawberry puree, perfectly matched the taste of the matcha and sweetened it well. It was delicious and creamy. My boyfriend got the matcha latte with espresso which I thought was not good, as it was not sweetened so both the matcha and espresso left a bitter taste but he enjoyed it as he doesn't love sweetened drinks. Their matcha is great quality. The only downside is the location is not ideal and parking is very bad. The inside was also very small and busy so it was hard to find somewhere to stand as it took awhile for the drinks to be made. They also forgot the espresso in my boyfriends drink and just made a matcha latte so I would just be careful in checking orders since I knew he paid extra for the espresso and luckily we were able to get it fixed easily. read more

Parking: very small parking lot shared with another business. Street parking can also be hard Interior: very limited seating inside. Some seating outside. Wait Time: none to order, about 5-10min to make drink Items Order: 7.5/10 Matcha Latte w/ Ube Cream $8 - first sip was very delicious with the ube cream being strong and sweet to balance out the matcha and plain milk. After mixing, the ube flavor becomes very light and the drink overall was about 10% sweetness. Had to ask for then I make it sweeter by adding more ube syrup. Matcha flavor died out after mixing. 7.5/10 Pandan Matcha Latte w/ Matcha Cream $8.75 - similar pattern with the first sip being amazing, strong Pandan flavor and mixed well with the matcha cream but after mixing it died down overall in both sweetness to a 30% and flavor. Overall very pricy drinks that were a bit better than ok. Good to try but can definitely find better elsewhere. read more

3/29/25 Thanks, Sam B for your patronage, review that highlights DASH Bar, no wonder it gets the star rating as one of your favorites! Loved my pandan latte! Sandwiched between Chim Thai Restaurant & Eddie's Edition (hair salon), this small but popular cafe dishes out some tasty beverages & treats. The staff here move in perfect harmony as they maneuver & navigate around each other to craft brews & tasty snacks! It's fascinating watching them work like busy bees to crank out orders w/o missing a beat. The ambiance is chill, music is not too loud. Patrons sit & enjoy their caffeine & treats, or study. Wi-fi password is posted. The decor doubles as merch, cool lighting. There is indoor & outdoor seating (about 8-10 persons indoor, possibly the same outdoors, covered canopy. Parking? Honestly, I don't know where these customers parked lol. There may have been a a stall or two while Hubby just stopped by to drop me off. Tried the almond croissant which was toasted, it was mediocre. Also purchased the pandan/mango cookie which I was planning to pair w/ my pandan latte but the warmed croissant won. Will likely return to try the ube latte read more

Came around 9:45AM on a Sunday and secured the last parking spot in their lot. We ordered the matcha einspanner, double matcha, biscoff latte, ham and cheese croissant, and orange and cranberry muffin. Unfortunately both matchas were very disappointing, barely any flavor and sweetness at all. I'm not sure what was up since I saw good reviews previously :( I'm not usually a coffee fan but the Biscoff latte was sweet and not too strong! The ham and cheese croissant was crispy and had lots of ham, and I liked that it came with a salad since it was a little salty. My parents enjoyed the muffin and our items came out pretty quickly. Service was decent but I definitely won't be coming back for their matcha sadly read more

Dash Coffee Bar is a speciality coffee shop that focuses on Asian-inspired flavored lattes. They serve coffee beans from Unity Sourcing & Roasting. [Parking]: A very small free private parking lot as the lot is shared with two other businesses - Chim! (Thai restaurant) and Eddie's Edition (barber shop). Luckily someone was leaving as I was about to drive in or else I will be circling around and looking for metered parking. [Atmosphere]: For ordering, they have a self-ordering kiosk. However most customers just ordered their drinks at the cashier counter. Cute interior decor with various Lay's Chinese Potato Chips on the shelves. All tables inside of the cafe were all filled by customers with laptop. They also have an outdoor seating area, but don't expect any fancy outdoor vibe. [Menu]: The top three drinks are Pandan Latte, Ube Latte, and ceremonial Matcha Latte. If you are on a hunt for regular or matcha einspanner then yes they have those drinks. They also sell sandwiches here. *** Pandan Latte (homemade pandan infused syrup, espresso, milk - $6.75): Sweetness was on the point with irresistible aroma - a solid 4.5-star. *** S-tier pandan syrup, but this is not exactly an ideal spot to meet friends or have a date due to poor parking situation and constantly crowded indoor seats. read more
