Crema's Take
“Starlet Coffee has carved out a devoted following in Pasadena by mastering the fundamentals—their traditional espresso drinks are executed with the kind of precision and care that keeps regulars coming back day after day. The shop strikes that rare balance between a serious coffee destination and a genuinely welcoming neighborhood spot, where the skilled baristas treat each order as an opportunity to showcase their craft rather than just move through a line. There's something reassuring about a place that focuses on getting the classics right, making it the kind of coffee shop where you can taste the difference consistency and quality make.”

Two baristas who own the place making coffee and matcha in a little hole-in-the-wall style store with limited seating and good music. The matcha was not too strong or weak. Very honored to be the first review on Google and hope they are successful.
