Lavender & Honey

Inspired by a love for community and quality, this cafe was founded to create a welcoming space where locals could enjoy thoughtfully crafted coffee and simple, delicious food. Over the years, it has become a staple in Pasadena, known for its signature toasts and creative seasonal drinks. The cafe’s commitment to sustainability and supporting local producers is evident in its menu and daily operations. Its vision extends beyond coffee, aiming to foster meaningful connections and a sense of belonging for all who visit.

Baristas here showcase a genuine passion for their craft, pulling consistently well-balanced espresso shots and expertly steaming milk for velvety lattes. The menu features both classic offerings and inventive drinks like the signature Lavender Latte, which is aromatic and delicately sweet. Pour-over options highlight single-origin beans, and the attention to detail extends to beautiful ceramic drinkware. Artisanal toasts, such as the honey-lavender and avocado varieties, are made to order and pair perfectly with the coffee. Seating is a mix of cozy nooks and communal tables, making it easy to linger over your cup.
