05/16/26 Saturday A friend brought assorted drinks and bagels to share for breakfast so I can only speak to the food but not the service or ambiance. 8.5/10 Matcha strawberry latte. Hard to mix the strawberry jam which settled to the bottom so the bottom was pretty sweet. Overall a good drink still. The matcha blended well with the strawberry. 7.5/10 Black sesame latte. Unsure if there's caffeine as I tasted no coffee. Black sesame flavor was strong but a little gritty with the sesame constantly settling to the bottom. Hard to mix as well. All the bagels were fresh. They were springy without being tough. 9/10 Strawberry Shortcake bagel - Tasted like a strawberry shortcake/birthday cake. Bagel was fresh. A little messy because the cream and toppings wouldn't stay on completely. 9/10 Roasted Tomato Herb & Cheddar bagel - very tasty with the tomato salsa and pesto on savory cream cheese. Didn't really taste the cheddar. Fresh. Kinda messy with the salsa and cheese falling off when pulling a piece of bagel off. 8/10 Matcha Crumble bagel - the matcha paste isn't creamy so it's not my cup of tea, but I loved the bagel portion. I think I need something creamy to balance the sweetness. read more

If you're a bagel lover, this place absolutely deserves a visit. The variety of flavors alone is impressive, and they aren't just unique for the sake of it. I ordered the garlic bread bagel, and it was easily one of the best bagels I've ever had. It was perfectly savory with a rich garlic flavor that wasn't overpowering. If you're a garlic enthusiast, this one is a must-order. The staff was genuinely warm and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The shop itself is small but aesthetically pleasing. One thing to keep in mind: get there early. It gets busy fast, and the line can stretch out the door. That said, the quality more than justifies the wait. As for the drinks, they were good, but the bagels are definitely the star of the show!! read more

Miopane - Butter Garlic Bagel - Bakeries Near Me - Pasadena, California

Went on Sunday around 1p, only 15 min wait, appreciate the system of having someone at the door let us know when we can go inside. All servers were very friendly. Awkward waiting for drink though b/c space is small and packed. Now the bagels. I got just savory ones: green onion, tomato, Mexican street corn. Gah I hate to say it but they're just fine? Fun combos and w/ lots of the toppings but the bagel itself for all three were just okay. Which was disappointing. Almost rather get a yummier bagel and just put the toppings on myself. Also I wish the toppings were more boldly Asian - salted egg or something like that. Got the Hojicha pillow latte and that was pretty good. Wasn't even that long of a wait but more than I'd like for a whatever bagel and a pretty good latte that I could get somewhere else with no wait and way less crowded. Wouldn't wait in line again for this. read more

My friend and I had dinner right next door and decided to stop by afterwards and to our surprise, there wasn't any line! The spot is pretty cramped, even inside although there is a bench on the window seating and a table, it's a really tight knit spot. Parking would also be if you're lucky for street parking or parking structures in the surrounding area. My friend and I got their Matcha Pillow which was by far my favorite matcha! It does not have that milky base overload taste even thought it's made with milk. It's very refreshing! I also got their pastries to try and they were to die for. Their cookies are humongous! I got their tiramisu cookie and we loved it. read more

Delicious bakery that specializes in creative bagels in the Pasadena area! I visited this bakery with a friend on a Sunday morning and it was packed, but the line moved relatively quickly. We probably waited about 20 minutes in line. My friend and I shared the following pastries: - Mexican Street Corn Bagel: My friend's and my favorite pastry. The bagel texture was soft and chewy and we enjoyed the creamy and spicy cream cheese. The roasted corn was also tasty. I would get this again. - Maple Glaze Green Onion: Unique croissant! I enjoyed the combination of the savory green onions and sweet maple glaze. The croissant was also flaky which I liked. - Strawberry Shortcake Bagel: Tasty and sweet bagel. I enjoyed the strawberry jam and crumbled cakes bits inside the bagel. It would even be better with some sort of cream cheese. - French Onion Bagel: My least favorite pastry out of what we got, but it wasn't bad. I would've liked this one better if it were more savory. Everything was great, but feel like it would've been better if they were warmed up instead of room temperature. I'm not sure if that's possible with the cream-based items, but I would have definitely enjoyed the croissant better if it was warmed up. The crowd control was pretty good and it was easy to select the items you want and pay for them. The interior isn't the biggest and there are limited tables and seats to sit and eat at. They also have a roomy private bathroom available. Overall, a good experience here. I would come back and try the items and drinks. read more

Taiwanese owner, asian-inspired flavored bagels. There's always a line, but it moves fast. Our favorite: Cream cheese & Onion, Everything Bagel, Garlic & Cream cheese, Mexican corn, and Milk crumble. Everything is made fresh in house everyday, they also help you warm up the bagels if you eat right away. read more

Miopane - Bakeries Near Me - Pasadena, California

If you are hunting for an ultimate breakfast pastry or honestly anytime dessert/snack pick me up, check this place out. Located in Old Town Pasadena, it is the first US location for the popular Taiwanese bakery China. This place brings an incredible Asian diasporic twist to classic laminated dough and stuffed bagels. They have a pretty wide selection of different flavor stuffed bagels, sweet and savory. A great savory choice is Garlic butter and whipped cream cheese. For a slightly sweeter option, the black sesame cream cheese is one of my favorite out of the two visits I made. Their drinks are great as well. My top recommendation is Houjicha latte with cream top, ugh. The ambiance of the shop is pretty aesthetic. But it is packed as heck on weekends. Since the seatings are pretty limited and are almost always occupied, a lot of people are huddled around while waiting for their orders. It can get somewhat cramped. I would say have a back plan of just getting it to go and enjoy it later or go to the alley where iPic theater is! Plenty of seats. The line can get somewhat long. On both visits, I've waited for nearly 30 minutes, which isn't all that bad. I don't know if it's the same on weekdays though. read more

Easily my favorite bakery in Pasadena! If you're a bagel enthusiast, Miopane needs to be on your radar right now. Such a great spot! There is a parking structure on Union St and there's street parking. The line moves relatively fast. There is a line because they don't want to overcrowd the inside which makes sense but the staff keeps it moving. Staff is very helpful and friendly. I've been to my fair share of bakeries, but the texture and bold flavors here are in a league of their own. The bagels are elite. You get that perfect, snappy chew on the outside, opening up to an insanely soft, pillowy inside. I also think it's a big plus they go heavy on the fillings. The matcha crumble and the jalapeno sharp cheddar need to be on your list for your first time. read more

Mexican Street Corn Bagel - the lime squeezed on top of the sweet and savory corn with creamy cotija + jalapeño cheese... it's hard to describe just how wonderful my first bite was. you've got to try this out for yourself please. this is tangy and mouthwatering. eat this when you get it! since it's overly loaded, it got really soft and harder to eat with each bite Whipped Cream Cheese Garlic Butter Bagel - recommend this if you LOVE garlic. i'm a huge fan but this made me rethink because woah is it garlicky. and woah do i need this again and again and again! the bagel itself is addicting and warm, the crust is shell-like but not too airy or firm, the whipped cream cheese is a delight! picking this apart is great, biting into it is too, this is great Everything Bagel w/ Smoked Gouda - what can i say besides plushy, pillowy... the smoked gouda filling. take me there. another top favorite for sure. she is so good. this being one of their more "basic" bagels on the menu, this genuinely could be my #1 favorite out of them all. it's that good. Tiramisu Croissant - wow this felt like biting into Christmas evening, for some reason, for me. the espresso was alright, yummy mascarpone filling. the crust on this + blueberry croissant is crackling and delicately flaky, wonderful + Blueberry Croissant (unpictured) - filling perfectly sweet, but not overly. this is in our top favorites!!! All of this with a coffee on the side? That was my mistake and what I recommend to do. Do yourself a favor Line lengthy so lengthy, we came about an hour after opening, but moves quick once you're inside! Definitely worth the wait read more

I don't know what's the hype about this place because I think it is very ordinary or even below the normal standard. I asked the staff for recommendations and I got the Roasted Tomato with Herbs & Cheddar and an Everything & Egg Breakfast croissant. I genuinely love pastries but the ones I got were so meh, I didn't even want to finish them. I don't think this place was worthy of waiting in line for. read more

Yeah this bagel was legendary. I ate it after a few hours of sitting in the car and it was still super duper gas. Great texture and I loved the black sesame filling. Really good for munching. Fire. read more

Met a friend for brunch and finally got to try the coveted Miopane!! You can smell the goodness down the block. Overall, everything was yum but the showstopper was the egg boat croissant. I highly recommend getting it toasted. But it was a perfect balance of flavors. All the other items were good but nothing spectacular. Einspanner latte was delicious but I wish it came in a larger size. The inside is small With one community table and a few bar stools. Keep that in mind if you plan on dining in. read more

It was definitely overhyped. We queued for 15 mins which wasn't so bad. The bakery is very tight inside even with a good crowd control outside. I wish they have a better system on where to pick up the drinks and lining up to order pastries. I ordered the Mexican Street Corn. The bagel was not soft enough and didn't taste anything. The corn mixture was good, it's spicier than expected. My group ordered other sweet and savory bagels, I liked the Strawberry Shortcake, it's probably the best. I also tried Cream Cheese and Garlic Butter, it was very heavy and didn't taste like garlicky enough. Overall, I just don't find the bagel fresh or delicious that I'll be willing to queue again. It was expensive for what its worth honestly. read more

I have been wanting to try Miopane for a while now after seeing videos all over Instagram and TikTok, it is worth the hype!!!! I came on a Friday morning and the line roped outside; however, it went by quickly. Upon entering, it smells so good! Everything is fresh and you can see the employees making fresh pastries in the back. I ordered the Garlic and Butter and the Hojicha latte. The Garlic and Butter was delicious. They are so generous with their fillings and it has a strong garlic flavor. The bread is crispy and soft on the inside. Baked perfectly!! Although I only tried this, there are so many unique flavors and many options for all kinds of taste palates. The Hojicha was smooth with good flavor. Will definitely be coming again, and this is definitely a place I would recommend! read more

I pass by this place every time I'm parking in old town pasadena and got an opportunity to try the pastries while the line was short one day. I got a garlic cream bread and a scallion bread (I don't remember their exact names). My wife also snuck in a hojicha drink that she thought was great. I didn't directly ask her but she had a satisfied look while sipping on it as we walked around. The garlic cream bread and scallion bread were very much on the savory side, which I prefer. The garlic taste was very strong and I loved the pungent-ness. The bread had a mochi like bounce to it on every bite, unexpected but a very welcoming texture. The scallion bread was even better. Very strong salty scallion taste with the same bounciness in the bread. The exterior of the bread was very crispy too. Each bite was the perfect flavor and texture. If I imagined a scallion bread, this would be it. Overall, pretty darn good bread. I don't remember how much I paid individually but my two breads and a drink came out to around $24 after tax. Is it worth it? I'd say so for the scallion bread. Can't say much about the others as my wife finished them before I could have more. read more

Got here on a Saturday afternoon and there's a line that took about 10-15 mins. I got the French onion bagel and the toasted tomato with herbs bagel to go. I really like the French onion bagel - lots of cream inside so it's pretty filling and the French onions on top are cooked perfectly (soft and savory). The toasted tomato bagel is a bit more plain - wish there's more cheese inside! They also have a drinks menu. If you're only getting drinks you can skip the line and go to the register. Not sure if the tipping culture has gone too far but I was not really expecting to pay tips at the iPad kiosk for some bagels... There's a large table and some seating by the window but don't expect to find a seat when it's peak times. read more

The pastries are tasty! I like that they offer to heat any of the pastries up which I recommend, because they do taste better that way. Large variety, but unique flavors! We got 4 pastries and one drink. Maple green onion croissant - loved it, really tasty and savory and crispy edges with a slight sweetness with the maple Mango cream bagel - the most 'traditional' bagel we had in the bunch and it was fluffy with a slight sweetness but not too sweet. The bagel with the least amount of cream inside we got, but had little chunks of mango in there too. French Onion - loved it, very cream cheese-y which I like and the carmelized onions were good and plentiful to be in every bite. Whipped tomato pesto, with fresh tomatoes on top. I love tomatoes so this was a winner for me too! For drinks we got the black sesame einspanner, which the staff told us does not have espresso in it?!? Maybe I'm not educated but I thought einspanners always have caffeine in it, but maybe it only refers to the cream top? I was so confused and you have to pay extra to put espresso in it, when the drink is already over $8 (with a milk substitute) so we added an espresso shot at home since we live so close. My only quarrel is their ordering/line situation. Maybe they intentionally make it slow to make sure the staff is not overwhelmed, but it feels inefficient and as someone who has decision fatigue and a people pleaser, I feel awkward making staff wait and just stare at you while you're trying to make a decision. You have to wait in line outside the establishment (which is why there always looks to be a line) and then they call you to come in and that's only when you can see the display of what's available. One suggestion could be to have a menu outside or today's pastries listed and say (as available) outside so people can get an idea ahead of time and come with a plan. Prices are. a little hard to read as well. All the staff were friendly and there is some bar seating along the window-wall and one large communal table. read more

I came on a weekend, so there was a bit of a wait. The employees were very efficient at moving people along, so I did not wait more than 10 minutes to order and receive my items. There is also ample paid street parking available, but it is usually a hit-or-miss with Old Town Pasadena. I ordered the Matcha Crumble Bagel and Elote Bagel. The Matcha Crumble Bagel did not have much of a matcha taste to it, so it is a skip to me. The Elote Bagel made up for the experience! The roasted corn mixture on top of the bagel complimented the savory-sweet cream cheese filling. Not pictured, but I also tried Garlic Butter Bagel. If you enjoy biting into straight garlic, then this is for you. Otherwise, I would skip it, but hopefully Miopane works on fixing their recipe or maybe the team making it made a bit of an oopsie that day. Their items are hit-or-misses, so I would read the reviews carefully! Only giving this place a 4 star because of how much I like the Elote Bagel. read more

Miopane - Matcha crumble bagel & elote bagel - Bakeries Near Me - Pasadena, California

Overall, the pastries at Miopane were yummy but nothing mind blowing. I ordered the earl grey scone, garlic cream cheese bagel, mango bagel and my friend got the maple scallion croissant. The earl grey scone was yummy! It had a bit too much orange peels for my liking though. The earl grey flavor was pleasant and the chocolate chips weren't too sweet. The mango bagel was decent as well! It didn't have a strong mango flavor and I wish it had more cream cheese, and as you can see in the photo it is on the drier end. The scallion maple croissant tasted alright, it tasted like another pastry I would get from 85 degrees or 99 ranch. Neat concept but mediocre execution. The garlic bagel was probably my favorite! The garlic flavor is super strong and has so many garlic bits in the cream cheese that it was a bit spicy! Service was excellent! The workers there are all kind and helpful. There is some seating inside the store but it is small. Parking can be a bit difficult since it's in old town Pasadena. We parked in a parking structure near by. Would return to try their other pastries and for the garlic bagel. read more

Miopane is a Taiwanese bagel chain and this cafe is Miopane's first U.S. location. There was a lot of hype surrounding the cafe when it first opened in late December 2025 and there was still a waiting line when our party visited a month ago. I haven't seen this kind of craze on a Taiwanese bakery chain since 85°C Bakery opened its first location in Irvine in September 2008. [Parking]: There's a public parking lot 3 blocks away from the shop (where Amara Cafe & Restaurant is located) and the rate is $1 for two hours. [Amenity]: The cafe is relatively small with just one table and few window seats. Utensils are available across from the cashier counter. There is one restroom inside the cafe. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted baked goods are the Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish and Strawberry Shortcake Bagel. Other notable bagel flavors include Garlic Butter Bagel and Jalapeno Cheddar Bagel. Our party was hoping to try the Mango Cream Cheese Bagel, but it was not available on the day of our visit. The cafe also sells matcha and hojicha drinks. *** Black Sesame Cream Cheese Bagel ($6.50): In a sense, this bagel tasted a bit like an Oreo except the cream cheese filling made it more like bagel. The bagel itself was a bit dry. Matcha Crumble ($7.50): It reminded me of a Chinese pineapple bun (bolo bao) but with matcha instead. Upside down Sticky Buns ($8.75): The sticky buns from Cream Pan is much better. The sugar glaze was on the pecans rather than the bun which I wasn't a fan of. *** While I appreciate that their pastries are not something you would typically find at a traditional donut shop or Taiwanese bakery, the results of combining the two were surprisingly underwhelming. Unique bakery creations, but a bit overhyped in my book. read more

Popular bagel shop located in Pasadena. They're popular for their cream cheese stuffed bagels with lots of different interesting flavor combinations. You should also know this is a Taiwanese bakery. So don't come here expecting a traditional (bagel) shop he might find on the west side. I tried coming to this place earlier around the time they were opening, but the lines were crazy long. I finally found myself in the area on an afternoon during the weekday so when I drove by, there was zero to little line. Thought it was the perfect time to go and grab stuff. The inside is clean and chill. Especially when there's no crazy line waiting to get inside. People were actually sitting and enjoying their food. I got their popular garlic cream cheese, stuffed bagel, and I got something a little bit more experimental, which was their 'Mexican street corn' bagel. I really enjoyed each of them, especially with one of their Matcha Einspanners to wash everything down. As I was sitting there, enjoying my food, one of the people working there allowed me to taste one of their experimental combinations they were working on as well. So fun! Definitely a great treat to enjoy specially if there's little to no line. Personally I'm not sure if I could wait during the busy times. read more

Pastries galore! I had the matcha crumble and this is hands down my fave thing I've had here. The taste was great and not too aggressive and the texture of the bread was spot on and fluffy. The inside and outer top crumble were yummy and not overly sweet or anything. The French onion soup bagel was interesting! I guess you can't go wrong with an onion bagel but this thing was stacked w onion! It was good but def not something I could finish in a sitting. The corn bagel was our fave! My husband and I enjoyed it together and thought it had a nice kick. I love that the bagels are semi cut in a manner that it's divisible into six parts w cream cheese in between. It makes it fun and easy to share. :) read more

We arrived before the café opened at 8:00 a.m., and there was already a long line stretching outside. It was impressive to see so many people waiting that early, but after finally trying it, I didn't think the experience justified the wait. The service was okay, and I did appreciate one thoughtful touch--they handed out umbrellas to customers waiting in the California sun, which made standing outside much more comfortable. That small gesture definitely stood out. As for the food and coffee, both were just average. Nothing tasted bad, but nothing was memorable either. With so many excellent cafés nearby offering similar menus without the long wait, I'd rather spend my time elsewhere. If you're curious, give it a try once, but personally, I don't think the food or coffee is worth lining up before opening. read more

I knew Miopane was popular with long lines so I waited 6 months after their opening to try it, and it seems like the hype is still going strong. Was it worth the wait? Not really. The main reason being I thought the bagels, especially the savory ones, were way too salty for my liking. We got the Everything, Garlic Butter and the Tomato and Pesto. Not only did I think they were too salty, but the cream in the bagels is overwhelmingly thick. These bagels are not light, which was what I was expecting given how many people rave about this place. On the bright side, their chewy texture that you'd expect from bagels is on point. However, I don't think I'd repurchase these three. They are beautiful bagels without a doubt, but I found Miopane to be a bit overhyped after my first visit. Maybe that will change after I've tried their other flavors. I did enjoy the Black Sesame bagel. This one was still a bit salty too, but it paired well with the sweetness from the black sesame paste. I'd definitely repurchase this on a future visit. I got the matcha strawberry latte as well, and it's one of the most solid ones I've had, mainly because the strawberry layer isn't overwhelmingly sour, sweet or artificial tasting. The matcha latte itself was perfectly smooth and earthy, and not overly sweetened. read more

Miopane is a bakery that specializes in artisanal, beautiful bagels. These bagels all have very light and chewy texture, the exterior is not thick like most bagel places, likely baked rather than boiled. Additionally, there is usually something cooked into the center of the bagel. The price is expensive, $7 or 8 per bagel. On any day they have a dozen or more bagel flavors, so you should be able to find an appealing flavor. Of the three I tried I most enjoyed the Roasted Tomato with herbs and cheddar. It had sundried tomatoes inside and some fresh tomatoes included too with basil as the herb. Very light and chewy, very fragrant, I would get it again. Jalapeno sharp cheddar was solid, but I don't care for jalapeno spice and this bagel had copies pieces inside. I think if the jalapenos were removed then it would have been a solid cheddar bagel which had cream cheese baked into the center. Lastly the Mexican Street Corn was a bagel with some crema baked inside, and then corn added on top. This one could not be heated up since it would get soggy, and felt the heaviest in my stomach (a major contrast to the other light bagels). read more

I saw this on my social media feed for awhile and finally had the time to check it out. Supposedly it has longer wait times from my friend's experience but I got lucky. I came on a Sunday around 2-3pm and the line had a few people out the door but the wait wasn't more than 20ish minutes. Inside there's a few tables for seating but it was packed when I came so I got my things to go. I tried the garlic cream, the matcha crumble and the sour cream & onion cream cheese bagels. Overall I think the matcha crumble was the stand out. It was their sweeter option but it wasn't too sweet and had good matcha flavor. Kinda reminded me of a matcha cake. The other two options were savory and were good except I felt the sour cream & onion cream cheese was alittle too much for the amount of bagel you get? It would have been nice to be able to have the cream on the side to be able to add as needed. The garlic cream has a very strong garlic taste from the chunks of garlic so be mindful of that. Overall the flavor was decent. I just felt it was alittle pricey for three bagels I spent almost 30 dollars. But glad I got to try it out. It's located in downtown Pasadena so there are parking structures nearby if you want to pay for parking. Otherwise you might need to try your luck on street parking. read more

Miopane is a true pasadena gem. After seeing it endlessly online and driving past it I finally decided to dedicate a weekend to stop by. Everything was absolutely delicious. We had the blueberry croissant, jalapeño sharp cheddar bagel, whipped tomato pesto bagel, and the everything and egg breakfast croissant. (Trust me you'll want to order this much too!) The cream cheese is light and fluffy on all of these bagels with plenty of flavor allowing for a unique experience on each item. The pesto is not too overpowering yet packed with flavor. The fruit purées tastes fresh and just sweet enough but not overpowering. The real star player is the bread itself whether it's buttery flaky croissant or chewy soft bagel. As a lover of bread in all shapes and sizes I was impressed. The service of Miopane is 10/10. It is incredibly small inside and giving the foot traffic the line does begin on the sidewalk. As you approach the front they have someone at the door answering any questions and offering recommendations! As you enter the bakery, you will notice 8-10 seats, one restroom, and rest is back of house. The service itself is assembly line met with more nice employees answering any questions about the menu. Stop by Miopane when you are in the area, get there early and come hungry!! read more

Got there around 10:30 AM on a Thursday and waited about 30 minutes before getting inside. It was super hot and sunny that day, so I thought it was really kind that the staff offered free water while everyone waited. Service was friendly throughout our visit. The shop itself is pretty small with limited seating inside. They had a huge selection of bagels ranging from savory to sweet. They were also quick to restock trays whenever items ran out. I ordered the Black Sesame Cream Cheese, Sour Cream Onion Cream Cheese, Whipped Cream Cheese with Garlic Butter, and the Hojicha Pillow ($8). The bagels ranged from about $7-$9, which is definitely on the pricier side, but they were good. All of the bagels were soft, fresh, and not stale. My favorite was the Sour Cream Onion Cream Cheese. The bagel was fresh and had a strong sour cream and onion flavor. I was excited to try the Black Sesame bagel, but I do wish the black sesame flavor had been stronger. The Hojicha Pillow was good, though I don't think the portion size justified the price. For parking, there is street parking or nearby parking garages. We ended up parking in the garage along N Raymond Ave. Overall, I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area to try more flavors. I'd recommend checking it out if you're in the area. read more

Solid, aesthetic, and rightfully viral pastries! Second time coming here, and thankfully there was no line on a Wednesday afternoon around 3PM. They've also extended their hours to 6PM instead of 4PM (4 months ago). Last time the Everything Bagel with Smoked Gouda $6.75 was memorable and tasty. Didn't see it this time tho. Matcha crumble bagel was meh. Maple Glaze Croissant $6.50 was also good while the Upside down Sticky Buns $8.75 were tasty w the nut bits and worth a try. This time got the: - Black Sesame Cream Cheese $6.5: true nutty black sesame flavor - Whipped Cream Cheese with Garlic Butter $7.00: simple and always solid - Mexican Street Corn $8.25: unique and kinda taco season-y? Generous amounts of corn. Worth a try and dad liked it too but prob won't get again - Maple Glaze Green Onion $7.95: sooo much onions and brown buttery like w the maple. Good combo but i prob wouldnt get again Drinks are good - would get hojicha again. Def worth coming here, esp when you're lucky enough and there isn't a line. read more

The line was surprisingly short when we arrived around 2 PM on a weekend afternoon. We picked up the matcha bagel, green onion croissant, and green onion bagel, and everything was very tasty. The green onion items were especially flavorful, and I can definitely see why this place draws such a crowd. That said, the matcha bagel did become quite hard by the next day, which makes me think these bagels are best enjoyed fresh. I would have loved to try them straight out of the oven, but there's clearly a line for a reason. Prices are on the steeper side, around $6-$8 per item, but that's pretty expected for Pasadena. As for parking, there is street parking available if you're lucky enough to find a spot, but there are also nearby parking structures. Just keep in mind that both options are paid. Overall, a solid bakery with unique flavors, quality pastries, and bagels that are worth trying at least once, especially if you can get them fresh. read more

Upgraded to 4 stars for the winning MANGO cream cheese bagel. The scallion croissant is also very good -- salty, savory, pairs great with the sweet mango pastry. Saturday afternoon wait time only 20 minutes, not bad. I was the only non-GenZ in the line but that's OK; my Gen-Z lovebird 'Mango' was happy. 4 pastries for $31 is not cheap and that's before the annoying iPad tip screen and the person behind the counter staring at you with a half-smile. hard bagel reheat instructions: wrap in wet paper towel, microwave 15 seconds, then into 300F toaster oven for 3 minutes. Suggestion to the Taiwanese owner -- add red bean, taro and pineapple pastries. read more

I have been seeing this place all over my feed and LOVE bagels so this was a must try! I went on a Sunday morning around 9 and the line wasn't too bad. Like the other reviews said, it moves pretty quick. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. Super patient because there are so many choices and hard to decide. The person that helped me was super helpful letting us know which ones were the most popular. The strawberry shortcake was the favorite for my daughters. The crowd favorite was the everything but bagel with gouda cheese. It was delicious! It was warm and the cheese was oozing out. My other daughter ate half of it on her own. The only downfall is there isn't much seating. So either you should take it to go or prepare a blanket/mat to eat it at the park near the store. This is what we had to do. Definitely will be by again to try some other bagels! read more

If you're looking for unique bagels, come check out Miopane! They have so many different flavors to choose from and they all look so pretty too. We came on a Tuesday morning around 10:30 and there was a short 15 min wait. The line looks long out the door but that's because they call you in one by one when they're ready to help you. I ordered the strawberry bagel, sour cream and onion cream cheese bagel, roasted tomato bagel, and the everything & the egg croissant. All the bagels were pretty delicious. The sour cream and onion cream cheese one was like their version of a standard bagel. I like that they added so many green onions to it and there was a whole roasted onion clove in the middle too. The strawberry bagel was sweet and like a dessert. My 3 year old really enjoyed this one. The roasted tomato bagel was my favorite out of the bagels. It was savory but the tomato pieces had a bit of sweetness to it. It was also filled with so much cream cheese. The everything and egg croissant was average. Flavor was good but I felt like the egg was a bit overdone. It would've tasted better heated up as well. Inside of the store is quite small. There's a communal table space and some seating along the windows. Most people grab their item to-go. Overall, I really enjoyed the food here and would definitely come back but would not wait more than 15-20 min for it. read more

Got to finally visit Pasadena's Miopane, a Taiwanese based bakery and coffee shop. A short line to enter but we got our food, all the wait means nothing. A big size croissants and bagels await you. We had Tiramisu croissant, Tomato pesto bagel, Black sesame cream cheese bagel and mango cream bagel. Each one is flavorful, and taste so good in your mouth. read more

Heard a lot about this place from Instagram and online so decided to try it out. We went on a Tuesday around noon and there was a decent line outside. Ambiance: they only let a certain amount of people in at a time but it was still crowded inside. There's seating but there's just a lot of bodies in there. Would not recommend staying if you want a place to sit and hangout, study, or chill. Parking is also atrocious if you're not paying for it in the parking garage (which I recommend to do). The space inside is cute and aesthetic and they also have a bathroom for use. Matcha: we got the matcha cloud and it was decent, definitely on the sweeter side and the size was a bit small for the price. Pastries: they had a lot of different pastries, they mainly have bagels and croissants. We ended up getting the garlic butter bagel as it was one of their more popular ones, it was good but there was actually too much garlic and butter which made it heavy and a chore to eat, would personally not get again. The almond and blueberry croissant were better. read more
