Jones Coffee



We met up with my sister and her family this morning at Jones Coffee in Pasadena. We love this coffee place. It's got a warehouse feel and it's just very laid back. And not to mention their coffees which are delicious. Everyone that works here is kind and friendly. They all seem to be a musician or artist of some sort. Apparently many of the chandeliers, paintings, and photographs that are displayed are created by the actual baristas. They roast their own coffees right on site so it can't get any fresher. Their pastries are delicious as well. We ordered a cheddar bacon scone and a bread pudding which were both really good. The outside of the bread pudding was crusty and the inside was perfectly moist. My sister ordered a vegetable quiche which lacked salt, but their homemade white bean chili more than made up for that. They have the main area where people can eat/drink and hang out and there are a few chairs and tables out in front of the place. My nephew also discovered a small room in the back with a couch and a rocking chair where you can study if you want. This place just has a very laid back vibe. It's earthy and rustic in its own way. A nice change from your Starbucks or Coffee Bean.
