I stopped by The Boy & The Bear and had the vanilla latte along with the avo toast. Both were…read morereally good--the latte was smooth and the avocado toast was fresh and satisfying. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the café itself is beautiful with a spacious, thoughtfully designed interior that's perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. I'm not sure if they have their own parking lot. I ended up finding street parking, but since it's Pasadena, there are also several public parking structures nearby that charge a small fee, so parking wasn't too much of an issue. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and would definitely come back to try more of their menu.

Ever since I had Stumptown coffee in Portland, Oregon 7 years ago, I had wished this coffee chain…read morewould open a shop near me. My wish came true a couple of years ago, and I finally got a chance to visit this location in Pasadena. The inside is modern with two large tables that can seat four and three small tables for 2. There is also seating outside and a parking lot in the back. I got the iced oatmilk latte and it was delicious. They don't charge extra for non-diary milk which I greatly appreciate! There is free WI-FI. The coffee was good but I do wish they had more food and pastry options: like pistachio croissant or coffee cake, bagels and a few breakfast items. The almond croissant I got was just ok.

I always appreciate a good coffee shop that also has an excellent selection of iced teas. I came…read morehere to work on a hot summer afternoon and was very happy with the hibiscus iced tea and apple pastry. They were refreshing and absolutely delectable. Service was extremely friendly and the vibes were cozy. I just wish they had more indoor seating as the person behind me in line wound up nabbing the last table. I wound up sitting outside, but the refreshing iced tea made it all bearable.

Love this place but the music is SO LOUD - like criminally loud (and usually BAD), like my tinnitus…read moreis flaring up loud. Trying to work with whatever station on is rough. It's so loud that AirPods can't even drown it out. I don't know how anyone working here can stand it. It's atrocious. That said, everyone who works here is chill as hell. The vibes are otherwise great. I stick to the teas as the coffee is too bright and acidic for my taste. The ice cream is great.

I didn't run into any problems. The staff communicated clearly, and the overall process was smooth.read more

If your looking for the best family owned and operated Coffee in Pasadena, you've found it…read more Our family switched over to Sailors Brew Coffee about a year ago. They really have amazing blends. Best part for myself is the blends consistency, flavor is always spot on. This place is located by the little machine shop in Pasadena on Washington and Lincoln with a nice big parking lot. Crows Nest Blend is really amazing!

I was looking for a local roaster so I can have some freshly roasted beans to grind in the morning…read more Freshly roasted? The bag I purchased had been roasted that morning, so yes. They are a small family business so I can understand if the hours posted on Yelp are not always accurate. They also will not have a large variety of roasted beans on hand on any given day, but will fill orders. This is an old school business, so just call ahead before you go.

Came here on a Wednesday at 11:11am. Door is locked and no notice outside saying it is not opened…read more It looks like the hours are incorrect on Yelp.

I kept hearing Bevel in Altadena had great coffee and as I'm a self proclaimed coffee aficionado I…read morehad to go. Well everyone is spot on. I had a dreamy Queen Bee latte( espresso, local honey, vanilla extract and almond milk) I would love it more if they had coconut milk as it's better for you and the environment than oat or almond milk. Took home a salt bagel and pistachio croissant. Made a Canadian bacon and egg on half the bagel at home at it was delicious. I'm also a bagel snob as I lived in NY for 8 years. This was a good bagel. Saving the croissant for tomorrow so I'll update later but it's huge and looks flaky and yummy. The place is darling, definitely not your typical private equity coffee spot. The staff was super friendly and when I couldn't decide which pastry to get, the young man asked if I wanted sweet or savory. Love a place with great customer service There is the added bonus aid being across from the Armenian market and Prime Pizza, all places you need to go in Altadena.

Barista was kind and pleasant to talk to, and there's five tables out for outdoor seating or a long bench with laptop stands inside. I got the Queen Bee with oat milk, and it was a great drink! I enjoyed the sweetness and would definitely revisit whenever I'm in the area!
