Lavender & Honey
Coffee and Delicacies with a Touch of Honey and Lavender
Pasadena is the ninth-largest city in Los Angeles County- and the second oldest (incorporating in 1886). It is home to the Tournament of Roses, ArtCenter College of Design, Caltech, JPL, many museums and artists (including the author of this post!). It is nestled below the San Gabriel mountains on the northeast side of Los Angeles. It feels more like an east coast town with big houses on wide streets canopied with trees. It is about 20 minutes from downtown Los Angeles and thus provides a low-key, suburban hideaway without losing any of the flavor of city life.

Home Brewed Bar is a hip cafe that lets you craft your own drink. There is a five step process for selecting your milk, flavors, and brew. It's a clever take on building a drink. Inside, there are high tables (good for co-working in small groups). It is also located in Old Pasadena, near a bunch of big-name shops, so if you are up for it, get your drink to go and join the hordes of shoppers pushing up and down Colorado Blvd to gawk at the Tesla or Tiffany's store. Pro tip: hold your breath when passing the Abercrombie & Fitch store!
