“ First time eating her food was good and nice little quiet place. ”
“ Nice little spot that feels like an escape from Pasadena. Cool grounds. As for cafe, food was delicious, but small portions for the price...location and setting probably influences that. Good first time experience. Will probably return and have eggs Benedict again, but wife will try something different than the migas. Plate was half empty and left something to be desired and wife isn't a big eater. Drinks are good. Peach cobbler was good. Son enjoyed the chicken and waffles. Daughter liked the omelette. On a nice day, the outdoor seating was great. ”
“ Unbeknownst to me, I was greeted by the owner when I walked in. She was very friendly and her staff. The food was absolutely scrumptious. The atmosphere is delightful. The cafe is a very cute and quaint. Definitely will be dining in again! ”
“ The restaurant is a building near the front, nice little nook with a homey feeling and staff with great hospitality. We ordered the brunch burger, sycamore Benedict, cinnamon French toast, and flight of mimosas and everything was just right. Would recommend for breakfast/brunch. ”
“ Generous and delicious portions. This place is not a “trendy” or gourmet restaurant, but it’s a solid southern comfort, quaint place with really good food. We stopped by for lunch because we were in the area and because it is a unique place, settled amongst a cluster of historic looking buildings, including a “hotel & saloon”, chapel and post office, concert stage and park-like area. The whole campus is a pretty little, kitschy event venue. The little Pine Street Cafe is set up in a 1920’s bungalow with separate rooms for more intimate dining spaces. The menu is breakfast, brunch and lunch and includes an adult beverage menu. We had the “Insane Burger” with fries, Lentil Sausage Soup, a Sangria “Flight” and a “Southern Lemonade”. Everything was excellent. Our server Brittney almost persuaded us to try some of their homemade pies, but we were too stuffed to even think about it (and we shared the burger!)... maybe next time! ”
“ 4 stars I really love this little spot — it has such a cozy charm, especially the outdoor seating, which is perfect for relaxing with my family. The food is consistently delicious and keeps me coming back. However, I do think the service could use some improvement. The servers don’t check in much during the meal, and I often find myself wishing someone would offer more water or ask if we need anything else. It’s a great place overall, and I hope the service catches up to the quality of the food and atmosphere! ”

“ Way underrated. Maybe because it's in Pasadena, but not enough folks know about this cute brunch/lunch spot on an even cuter event venue. Great coffee too. Got the Pine Street Eggs Benedict when i came, and a piece of coconut cream pie. Felt like home. Absolutely check these folks out. ”
