Rose Tree Cottage
801 S Pasadena Ave, South Pasadena, CA
Crema's Take
“Rose Tree Cottage feels less like a coffee shop and more like stepping into a warm, gracious friend's home—the kind of place where the owners genuinely delight in making you feel welcomed and special. Beyond stellar coffee and tea, they're beloved for their exceptional scones and curated tea-and-bites boxes, making it the perfect spot for an unhurried afternoon or a meaningful celebration with someone you care about. It's the rare spot where every detail, from the thoughtful hospitality to the beautiful seasonal decorations, invites you to slow down and savor the moment.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
