I've loved these burritos for as long as I can remember, and they're still my #1 spot for breakfast burritos. The staff is always so kind and greets you with a warm welcome as soon as you walk in. It does get pretty packed, so I usually order ahead on the app and just walk in for pickup. There's plenty of seating inside as well. Their menu has changed over the years, and the one thing I still think about is their bagels. They were SO good, and I really hope they bring them back someday! The burritos are a little smaller than some of the competition, and some might find them a bit pricey for the size. But what they lack in size, they definitely make up for in flavor. Still one of my favorites! read more

I've been here several times, usually when we're staying nearby at the Hotel and it's become one of my go-to breakfast stops in the area. After trying a few variations, my favorite order is actually the breakfast burrito with no meat and no avocado. It's still a really substantial, filling burrito. I've had the bacon as well, they give you a generous amount, although I personally find it a little more crumbly than I prefer. Definitely ask for both sauces. They're completely different and both worth trying: one is spicy and smoky, while the other is brighter and more cilantro-forward. Having both really makes the burrito for me. Their iced lattes are simple and straightforward, strong coffee and not overly sweet. If you prefer coffee drinks with minimal sugar, you'll probably really like them. Just know this isn't really the place for huge, heavily flavored, dessert-style iced drinks. Overall, it's a solid breakfast option that I continue coming back to whenever I'm staying in the area. The burritos are filling, easy to take on the go, and I've figured out an order that hits every time. read more

Wake and Late has become my new go-to breakfast/lunch spot in Pasadena! I discovered Wake and Late about three weeks ago, and I've already been here about 6 or 7 times! I can honestly say I'm hooked. Their burritos have become a staple for me, especially because they're not overly filling and, unlike a lot of breakfast burritos I've had, they don't leave me feeling super bloated afterward. I keep my burrito pretty basic since I don't like meat in my burrito. I usually get egg, cheese, avocado, and tater tots, and it's SO good. I did try adding the refried beans once, and the first time they were delicious. Unfortunately, the second time they tasted a little off, so now I just stick with my usual order without the beans. And let's talk about the iced coffee! This is probably one of my favorite things here. I work in the area and parking in Pasadena can be a nightmare, so I usually walk about 15 minutes from work. By the time I get here, especially on a hot day, I'm completely overheated and that iced coffee hits the spot every single time. Definitely recommend getting one! The service has also been consistently great. Everyone I've interacted with has been kind and friendly, and the whole operation is really efficient. I also love their app. If it's your first time and you download the app, you get $10 off, which I thought was a great incentive. You also earn rewards with your purchases that you can use toward future orders, and I really appreciate that. Those little perks go a long way! My only complaints are the prices for add-ons. I think $2.50 just to add refried beans is a little steep, especially when you're already purchasing a burrito. Bacon being $4 is also on the pricey side. I don't mind paying typical Pasadena prices, but I do think some of the add-on costs could be more reasonable. Overall, though, I really enjoy Wake and Late and it has quickly become my go-to breakfast/lunch spot when I'm working in the area. Great burritos, AMAZING iced coffee, friendly employees, and a really efficient operation. Their packaging/logo is very nice also. I definitely recommend checking them out and get the iced coffee! read more

This is one of the best breakfast burritos in LA. First thing I noticed the tots were still really crispy. The bacon was flavorful and crunchy, the eggs were fluffy, the avocado added richness, and the cheese was nice and gooey. Overall, every bite was delicious and so satisfying. The sauce on the side added a nice zing. read more

I LOVE wake and late. This is my favorite place to get breakfast burritos! My favorite part is the tater tots, they're so crispy and add the perfect crunch to each bite. I also love how compact the burrito is. A lot of people say the size is too small for the price, but personally I think it's the perfect size and fills me up so I'm not too full or still hungry. I usually get it with the hot sauce & chipotle aioli too. I love having it with the iced vanilla bean latte which is not too sweet. I've also had their matcha latte which is pretty good too. The service is also great, the workers have always been kind to me. Good amount of seating inside but if you go during a busy time (weekends late morning) it can be a bit tough. Overall, great service and delicious food! read more

Went during lunch on Saturday. There was. Lot of people. The line was not obvious. There isn't a counter with a cash register. So I'm guessing no one pays cash?? The menu is at the register table so there isn't a place where people can see the menu. While they took our order, we prob waited 20 min for our food. The burrito is small for the price. For ~$15, I got the Burrito with Pickled jalapeño and chipotle aioli. I ate the whole burrito and was still hungry. I feel like it was an appetizer size. It is a really good burrito. The avocado, tater tots, cheese, and eggs blended so well with the pickled jalapeños. Flavorful and not salty. There are indoor seats but is limited. Parking is metered street parking. read more

Heard from several people that this place had one of the best breakfast burritos so had to check it out. Inside of the place is nice and service is welcoming, friendly, and helpful! We had their breakfast burrito, one with bacon and one with steak along with the cilantro crème sauce and the spicy sauce. Would definitely say the burrito itself is a 9/10. However, the size of the burrito and the price for it is the only downside. It's pricey! Other than that solid place! read more

I needed a cup of coffee and a quick breakfast before work, so I decided to stop by here. I ordered the steak breakfast burrito and a vanilla bean latte. The café is surprisingly spacious with plenty of tables for dining, hanging out, or even studying. The steak burrito with the cilantro sauce was the perfect combo. The worker recommended that sauce, and he was absolutely right--it paired perfectly. The burrito is on the smaller side, but it was delicious. The crunchy hash brown, avocado, and steak all worked really well together. My coffee was great too, and they offer different milk options, which I appreciated. I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu. read more

Cute little place right next to 24 hour fitness. It was like 1 min walk so if you're starving after a workout, this is the place. The food: Very limited option, it's for burrito only. However the burrito has everything I needed: eggs, potato totes, avocado, cheese and bacon. They also have 2 creamy sauces that I like: cilantro and chipotle. I had the Ice Caffe served frozen. It was quite small but strong and enough after the workout. It was delicious too! The vibe: It seems chill but not too much decor. They blocked out a lot of spaces behind the counter and there were limited seating spaces. It was also hard to hear when they call your name for the order. I think it's better if we can get a text message when the order is ready. Overall, it was nice and definitely will go back again. read more

We had delivery from this spot and it was simply amazing! The burritos are authentic Juarez style, so long and thin. We tried the steak burrito which was thicc and delicious.

Walked in on a Saturday, luckily didn't wait long in line but once I ordered there was a rush! Waited about 20 minutes. The breakfast burrito was life changing. It's on the pricier side but filling and satisfying, every bite was a joy. I got the refried beans and steak added and it came out to $21. I would definitely go again. Service was great. read more

I got the steak breakfast burrito 10/10. The tater tots crunch was perfect and all the flavors blended together perfectly. Both sauces on the side are amazing. Chipotle aioli is really good and so is the cilantro crema is super good as well. I've heard a lot about this burrito on TikTok and people say it's overrated but honestly it was really good. I know a lot of people complaint is about price for size but idk I think this is the perfect size for a good breakfast. The vanilla latte was good nothing special like a 8/10. The service was good the girl at the front was nice. The inside is huge it was pretty empty though. I like the interior simple. read more

first time and it stood out in allll the ways. 1. "no tipping policy because the prices reflect accordingly" love the openness of it! and the bold choice in such intense tipping culture 2. FOOD: base burrito ($12) with others as add ons. I did the refried beans add-on and it was sooo good. They do a light like toast of the burrito and it....that first crunch bite (and then following ones) were SO GOOD! It looks small and my dumb american brain thought it was too teeny but it was REALLY filling. I wanted to stop halfway but...finished it and my partner that does eat more than I do said it wasn't HUGE but he felt FULL like he didn't crave or want other things which is solid- a fuullll meal. *healing from that american brain* 3. Ambience: it is HIIIGH ceilings, lit up, and I like the vibess of where you can hear the people and the cooking and all so liked it a lot. there was only one big table and I was glad that we got it, but a lot of little tables around. OVERALL: Soliddd spot and really love #1 for them : ) also... that tortilla and toasting of it!! read more

My wife brought me here knowing how much I love breakfast burritos. I love the location of this spot. Great part of Pasadena. The inside does remind me of a "pop up" location. The customer service was pretty good. The food and coffee were made pretty fast. The quality and food and drinks were excellent! Packed with flavor. My one and only issue was for 2 burritos and 2 drinks, I paid a little over $50. The burritos are a decent size, not too small but not very big. I'd definitely recommend this spot and I'll definitely return just not quickly. read more

The breakfast burrito tasted great! I added bacon and chose the chipotle sauce, which gave it a nice kick. It costs around $18 and is about six inches long, so it does seem a little small for the price. Overall, I enjoyed it more than the breakfast burrito at Lucky Boy, although Lucky Boy's is much larger and less expensive. I would still highly recommend giving this one a try. read more

My brother has gotten me the bagels and burrito to go a few times before, but came here myself for the first time recently! Devastated that they stopped selling the bagels and cream cheese cause I wanted to try it fresh, but got to have the steak burrito and it was good! I definitely preferred the cilantro crema over the chipotle aioli, but together they were great! For $17 a burrito it is a bit pricey, but the crispy hash browns and all the toppings inside do make a good breakfast! Be aware that this burrito is probably not for sharing cause one is pretty skinny! I liked that they also had a lot of seating inside and the line wasn't too long when we went on a Sunday morning! read more

I did not expect to eat the tiniest breakfast burritos of my life, especially for $12 with no meat and $17 with steak. They are about the same size as those frozen bean and cheese burritos you get from the market. The steak burrito had about 2oz of beef in it. The worst part is the steak burrito came with rotten avocado in it. We ordered and ate at the restaurant so there was no time for something fresh to turn rotten. We lost our appetites after biting into this burrito. I showed the woman at the register and she offered to make us a new one, but I opted for a refund, which she gave for the bad burrito. I'm very confused by why people like this place. It's honestly the worst and most overpriced breakfast burrito I've had. read more

Ok i finally wanted to try so hopped on the metro to come out to pasadena. You can take the metro A line to memorial station and walk about 3-4 blocks here. I knew what i wanted so i jumped on the breakfast burrito $12 bucks with added steak $5 and bacon $4 bucks. Expensive yes, cost me $24 dollars for this which is way over priced. The burrito was very good though. It had a nice crunch with the tater tots with every bite but with little steak and bacon to justify the $9 add ons. Get the cilantro crema (best sauce) and the chipotle aioli to go with it. It's a huge place and i picked this over the LA location one because you can actually sit down and enjoy it here. The LA one i passed by has no real seating, only to go orders. They have free self serve water station which is a bonus at pasadena location because i wasn't trying to pay $7-$9 bucks for a small cup of orange juice to push the price over $30 bucks for it. Customer service was good and i was greeted right when i walked in. Overall, easily in my top 3 breakfast burritos i ever had but this will be a once in a while visit.

I really like this wake and late! There's seating and free water! The burritos are always so filling despite them being normal size (not regular American super size haha). I love how the tatertots within the burrito are still crispy, and how they don't skimp on the avocado or the protein! It is a little on the $$$ side for a breakfast burrito, sitting at around $17~ with steak protein read more

I've been wanting to try this spot for awhile, but they have limited hours. You can order online or in person, but it took awhile for someone to come take my order. The burrito was pricey after adding different types of meat especially for the size of the burrito. I thought it was going to be bigger. The burrito was so delicious and flavorful. It had crunchy tater tots and I tried both the cilantro crema and chipotle aioli sauce with it. I thoroughly enjoy both of the sauces. There's a bunch of seating inside, bathrooms around the corner, and water station. read more

Wake and Late - Menu May 2026 - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

I went to Wake & Late only once for the food but twice for drinks cause I was thirsty from standing in the sun waiting for Matu's cheesesteak and W&L was on the way back to my car. The space is really interesting, it's huge and industrial with two big counters at the front, one for ordering and one for pickup. Even with my second visit I wasn't positive where to order because they don't have countertop POS machines. Their burritos taste good and I enjoyed both the bacon and the steak, especially with the hot sauce and cilantro crema but WOW. All the reviews warned they were small for $18/$19 and I was still wholly surprised by HOW small the burritos are. They're actually ~6 inches. I liked the bagels but definitely wouldn't come here for a bagel fix--they're different than traditional bagels, more like homemade or Pop Up Bagels in NY if that makes sense. Lastly, their drinks taste pretty good but the price is insane. $10 for a 10/12oz dirty matcha. $7.50 for the matcha alone. There's free (for now) 1-2 hour parking on Colorado and the side streets, but the city installed parking machines and most street parking will become paid soon. read more

Great burritos available for delivery in Pas. I recommend the steak, as the bacon is overdone to me. They are small, so order two for a proper breakfast. Four stars because they are salt heavy, requiring extra beverage. read more

A dystopian vision of food, that feels like it's created by a combination of an MBA class, an algorithm and a private equity house. The food: The burrito is basically fine. But the menu feels like it's entirely built around upselling pricing strategy. The breakfast burrito starts at $12 but you want beans, that's extra. You want bacon, that's a 40% premium at an extra $5. So for what most people would think of as the basic building blocks of a breakfast burrito (eggs, beans, potato and a breakfast meat) isn't actually $12, instead its $20 which I think is why so many people complain about it being expensive. And given the fixed size of the tortilla, adding beans and bacon probably means putting in less of everything else anyway. And the avocado in my burrito was seriously over-ripe and should not have been used. I've seen other reviews saying that people have been served rock hard avocados so clearly there's poor quality control and produce management. Also, the crema is disgusting. All powdered garlic and indigestion. The location: This is probably the worst part. It feels like stepping into a ghost kitchen with a temporary space to sit in. The music is unpleasantly loud, the windows are covered, the seating area is blocked off from the kitchen by some temporary barriers, and it's a thoroughly inhospitable space. 80% of the orders seem to be made online and through delivery apps and every attempt has been made to take the human out of the experience even down to the collection lockers that people open by checking in at an iPad. That could have been a job for a human, instead it's a larger profit margin for the company, because it isn't showing up in a lower cost of product. I fear this is what restaurants will all start to look like in the era of AI and post-Covid food delivery, and I'm not here for it. Even if the burrito was excellent I'd avoid going back, but it was mid and the avocado was rancid, so that seals the deal. read more

Got the breakfast burrito with asada. First and foremost, absolutely pricey burrito. Almost ridiculous for the size (also 5$ for asada...) However, my gosh, it is delicious.... The tatertots they add are so crispy and fluffy it adds an amazing texture to the burrito. The cilantro creme sauce they provide on the side was tasty, could be a bit more herby for my own tastes I can't necessarily justify the price since I barely tasted any asada and could finish it in 4 bites but it was delicious nonetheless... 3.8/5 read more

We came to Wake and Late hoping for a breakfast burrito and a bagel because they looked so tasty in the photo but I guess we're late to the game because they no longer serve bagels. They do burritos, coffee and matcha. The burritos are made with their house-made flour tortillas and while they were on the small side they actually did fill me up, and I typically eat a lot. The fillings are simple: eggs, avocado, tater tots, cheddar, your choice of sauce on the side, and your choice of bacon, steak or pinto beans for an additional charge. I went with the steak and found it to be really tender with lots of flavor. I appreciated the good ratio of ingredients in the burrito and the fact that there wasn't a big mass of dry eggs. read more

This casual grab and go breakfast spot offers very tasty food. I have gotten the breakfast burrito with bacon several times as well as tasted their fresh orange juice. Both of these were pretty delicious. The breakfast burrito has some of the best mouthfeel I have ever experienced in a breakfast burrito. The crunch of the tater tots is super satisfying and pairs amazingly with the chipotle aioli. The only reason I'm not here way more often is that the portion size for the food and drinks are too small to justify eating here more than occasionally. read more

My coworker had told me about this place, so decided to stop by on a Wednesday morning. I arrived shortly after they had opened, so there wasn't any line. The location is spacious and lots of seating inside. The woman at the counter was really friendly and recommended the steak burrito. I got it with a side of the cilantro crema. The total came out to be about $18. Although I agree with the other reviews that the portion is on the smaller side for the price, I personally felt like it was filling and delicious. The tater tots were super crispy, the steak was tasty, and the cilantro crema was soo flavorful, it has hints of lime. I would recommend! read more
