Rosebud Coffee
2302 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA
Crema's Take
“Rosebud Coffee in Pasadena has cultivated a rare blend of serious espresso craft and genuine hospitality—their signature drinks like the Rosebud Chai and Golden Latte earn genuine devotion, while their thoughtfully designed space (complete with an outdoor patio and abundance of plants) welcomes you whether you're stopping by for a quick cold brew or settling in for hours of work. The fact that this place transforms into a brewery after hours, pairs excellent coffee with restaurant-quality food like breakfast burritos and salsa-forward melts, and manages both strong wifi and genuinely good parking makes it less of a coffee shop and more of a neighborhood destination worth planning your day around.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Wifi. Parking available.

The Golden Latte was to die for and the strawberry desert cake thing my son got was tip tier as-well. I love local coffee shops and this one doubles as a brewery after the coffee shop closes. I also love that they hire and train the youth for jobs. Just a real stand up place…
Rosebud Coffee has a lot going for it. The decor is fantastic, with plenty of plants and cool merchandise. There are lots of tables to sit at, both inside and on the outside patio. A neat feature is the separate brewery inside, complete with an alcoholic bar. Plus, there's a…
