Urth Caffe Pasadena - South Pasadena

What a great restaurant. eating was spectacular! really the best chai tee I ever had. the hummus was fantastic. I had a Greek salad with grilled chicken. my friend had a Cesar salad with grilled salmon. both were spectacular.

This is the best coffee shop I know of in Pasadena. They only use organic ingredients in all of their products and you can taste the difference. Their Blueberry Cheesecake was rich and decadent. The Spanish Latte which is their signature drink was fantastic. Plenty of seating inside or out in an elegant atmosphere. Staff is always friendly and efficient even when busy. Small parking lot in back and street parking along Madison.

Salmon platter is just the right amount of food to feel full but not guilty after a good workout. Love the outdoor/indoor style seating in the main dinning area. Sidewalk seating is also available. Dogs are welcome You have to try the chocolate pistachio croissant

TL;DR: Great breakfast place (if you go early enough) although a bit pricey. Staff is super helpful. I ordered: Italian Cappuccino, Spanish Latte, Divine Spice Latte, Nutella Girella Bun, Urth Croissant, The Mexican Omelet, and the Banana Waffle. The Italian Cappuccino is you're standard cappuccino. The Spanish Latte has a nice kick to it. I would recommend this if you enjoy espresso drinks but want to try something a bit different. The Divine Spice Latte was just a Chai Latte with Honey, which I know sounds plain, but it actually tastes pretty swell. Give it a go if you're looking for a caffeine free option. Although I will say that this drink is advertised as having super intricate latte art but for some reason we never got anything like that. The Nutella Girella Bun and Urth Croissants are tasty but I strongly recommend treating them as desserts since they are incredibly sweet. The Mexican Omelet was much better than I was expecting. You get an option to choose for the side, salad, fruits, or potatoes of which I chose potatoes. I strongly recommend going with fruits or a salad if you want a healthier alternative. They give you so many potatoes there's no way you can finish them without having a heart attack. Still really good though. The waffle was also really sweet but less so than the pastries. The real standout of this place though are the employees. Everyone was really kind and nice to talk to!

Visiting from WA. I loved everything about this place, from the decor, to the coffee and lattes, to the baked goods, and to the tasty hot breakfast/lunch/dinner options. I tried the green rose tea latte, Spanish latte, salmon egg toast, hazelnut chocolate cake, pizzas and the croissants. All were fantastic! I particularly love their lattes and coffee
