Don't let the name Coffee fools you. An amazing find walking down Colorado Blvd trying to cure my crave for coffee. Didn't know I was hungry until I saw the menu. What! Thai food also being served here too so I tried their Pandan coffee (recommended by the barista) along with Spicy Thai Basil and oh wow... Pandan Coffee had its unique taste and it is quite delicious also Spicy Chicken Basil, tastes amazingly good with the sunny side egg on top! Must try if you ever stopped by Pasadena!

Stopped by to grab coffee while waiting for a restaurant to seat us and was pleasantly surprised by the spacious and cute interior, extensive menu, and finally my order--a very good iced dirty matcha latte! The flavor came in steps which was the pleasant surprise lol--first the sweetness, then the espresso, then the matcha. I'm always searching for a good latte and I think they accomplished it here! I tried a sip of my partner's vietnamese coffee and it was nice and strong as well if you like that kind. If I am ever in the area again I would love to actually dine inside. You order at the counter and pick up when it is ready, with convenient pagers. A very nice local business.

This is a great spot for a quick lunch/dinner or snack when you’re on a break at work and you are close by.I ordered the garlic chicken & crab fried rice. I should of asked if they do the garlic chicken with crab fried rice instead of white rice. The garlic chicken was solid and delicious. It was tender and flavorful. The grab fried rice had a good amount of crab and egg pieces which made it a real great combo. I highly recommend both.Parking is limited because of the post office, they share the lot.

First time at this place. Food was good and I can't wait to try more dishes. Prices were decent and I definitely recommend this place if you like Thai food.

Used to LOVE Tiffany's... Just change the cafe name at this point. Not Tiffany's cafe anymore. Only the pastrami is the only sandwich left on the menu but overpriced and comes with fries or salad. The pastrami changed, thicker slice but too salty and cold. The bread changed. The leaf of lettuce smelled like a wet rag. There was cheese? Why is there avocado in it? I knew the prices went up and understandably so, however it was so disappointing if you were expecting the sandwich it used to be?

Tried this place out for a work lunch. I got the spicy Thai basil and a Thai tea. The food was good and filling. The Thai tea was one of the better Thai teas I've tried. I'll definitely go back for that, and try something else on the menu. The menu is pretty extensive so I'm excited to try more. The cashier was super friendly and answered whatever questions I had. The restaurant was bigger than I thought inside, and pretty clean. The wait for my order was about 10-15 minutes but it was not very busy.

A very generous 2 stars because the food is average. Another former great lunch spot succumbs to inflationary pressures with some greed mixed in. New indoor decor,new menu but same old building. Inflation has caused so many places to raise their prices but unfortunately this place, among others, has managed to take advantage and raise their prices beyond what inflation would dictate and into the realm of price gouging. I mean almost doubling the price of many items and pricing items on par with eating at a nicer restaurant in Old Town. Hope they come to there senses and lower prices to be more in line with the quality of the food and the location.

My coworkers and I came here at least once every two weeks for breakfast or lunch. However, the overall quality has been unstable since the new owners took over. I have been here numerous times around 10:15 and 10:30am, and the gate was still closed. And that one time I ordered a breakfast sandwich, they didn't have the basic protein options available as listed on their menu. The food is decent (according to my coworkers), and the service is okay. I want to try out more items on their menu if they open on time and have food ready for business. Thus far, we miss the former owners and their friendly service.
Great food. My friend and I split the Pad see ew and the grilled steak bowl. We ate half of what we got. It's a good amount of food.

1) I never trust any place that puts up signage telling me not only that I have to clean up my own dishes, but exactly how to do it. Throw away the trash and then stack my plates on the cart? No thanks. You can clean up my dishes for me; that's what I pay you for. 2) When I asked for a cup of hot tea, perhaps you misunderstood me. I was expecting to get a teabag in a cup of hot water. I was not expecting to receive a 24 ounce to-go cup of hot water and a single tea bag. What you provided was not so much a hot tea situation as a mildly flavored hot water situation. 3) I ordered a ham, egg, and cheese croissant sandwich. What I did not order was ham, egg, and cheese on bread that was so tough I actually had trouble tearing into it at one point. And I have pretty strong teeth. It was pretty obvious you brought me a microwaved sandwich. And you expect me to clean up after myself? Hard pass.

I stopped because I was thirsty but then I noticed the variety of sandwiches they have along with Thai food. I tried the pastrami sandwich and it was really good. It is not a deli style pastrami sandwich but there are times when I don't need the whole package of pastrami in my sandwich if you know mean. It was quite tasty. I will try the Thai food next time. Service was friendly and fast.
