Nice Buns, Pasadena CA

Nice Buns? That’s what he/she said. I have driven by this place a thousand times but never stopped in until today. It’s in the lobby of the building that houses WeWork, so convenient if you are on your way there. I had a Vietnamese coffee, something you don’t often see on many of the coffee houses around Los Angeles. Need to try the cappuccino or Cortado in order to really critique their wares. I will say it’s immaculate, with plenty of seating and the young woman behind the counter was polite and lovely.

I walked by and decided to check it out. I was expecting nice buns, but I didn't see any in the case. All I saw were croissants and muffins. What is that? I wanted nice buns!

I got an Earl Grey tea and left. Message for the manager: minus one star for the lack of buns. I'll try going again, but next time I'll be hunting for buns! I'll add the star back if the buns are as nice as advertised.

So glad I found Nice Buns! It is in the lobby of a large office building, but the atmosphere is great. Background music, huge windows providing lots of natural light and there's plenty of seating. The barista was sweet & friendly. I ordered a cappuccino and it was delicious. I will definitely come back!

The barista is always super friendly, I often ask her to surprise me with a new coffee, and she never disappoints! Thank you for always accommodating my coffee adventures Ms. Leah, you bring a smile to everyone's break from work and you make every drink absolutely delish!
