Great little coffee house tucked into a corner storefront. Look for the Blue Bottle logo. Order up front, go outside and wait for your order at the side door. Cute seating area to safely wait for your order. The coffee is delicious. The staff was knowledgeable about the different brews offered and hit the nail on the head when I asked for a dark roast, not bitter.

Tonya was amazing today! She was so helpful and explained the gift card vs online gift card. I always love the Hayas Valley Espresso! It is my favorite out of any coffee shops Espresso roast! I cant wait to come back!

Great stop for a quick coffee. The beans were quality and everything was delicious. I recommend the New Orleans if youve never been here. They even sell it in cartons at select grocery stores and at the Blue Bottle storefront itself. They also over sweet baked goods as well.

Highly RecommendNewly opened cafe/coffee roaster in Old Town Pasadena with a near cult-like following.They have a way of bringing out notes in coffee that I’ve never tasted before. It is very good!! I had a Bella Donovan pour over with notes of raspberry and dark chocolate. SO GOOD!! I believe they have a rotating menu on roasts each day so there’s always the opportunity to try something new.They have plenty of seating outside which is great. Patio seating is sometimes hard to come by in Old Town.

Coffee. Hot or cold. Foam or plain. Blue Bottle does it so well, please no one complain.

Lots of hype on this blue bottle coffee and finally got to try it today. First of all, the place in Pasadena location is very small inside but it has a nice outside patio place (if weather permit of course). Customer service is good and friendly. Ordered the cappuccino, it tasted fine to me but a bit too bitter for others (family member). The main point is that I couldnt feel any special taste/smell/,etc vs other coffee.

We happen to walk by this little coffee shop with a bit of a hunger for something small to eat. Luckily for us they have a few vegan options. The potato galette was unfortunately sold out so we tried the lemon tea cake instead and It was delicious! It was small but packed great flavor and was very soft.

Love the New Orleans coffee here. They offer it as a concentrated bottle for take home. Their leige waffle is so good! Perfect to pair with the coffee. Just the right amount of sweetness.

Excellent little spot. the inside is clean and minimalistic and the pour over options are plentiful. We have the Kenya roast and I had the mocha and both tasted clean with no bitterness! Smooth, flavorful, and full coffee. Definitely recommend it! Additionally, they have an outside patio that is really quaint and great for intimate conversations.

The coffee here is very good, however the staff are not very friendly. On more than one occasion I was treated with disdain. No smiles given...ever, and I’ve been there at least a dozen times. Also, $1.25 for almond milk (as an alternative to regular milk) is ridiculously overpriced.

The space is a little cramped when busy, but nice staff and good coffee/pastries. Liege Wafel was excellent if you get there early enough for it.

Sunday morning, came to get a New Orleans.. they pull out a cup to pour our coffee then mid service, he decided to change to a smaller cup. I said wow your gonna change the cup to a smaller size. He said oh that size dosent start till tomorrow. Petty. Never coming back if they are that thitsy for less than an ounce of pre brewed coffee. Then he wants to argue and said it would have been 5 dollars. And I point out the sign says 4.25 this went on until he was trying to get the last word. I ended it with so much for the customers always right.dont come here if you want good polite service.
