This picturesque yet casual two-story spot is where Pasadena locals come for coffee, sandwiches and, oh yes, ice cream.

Neighborhood Favorite

Although the coffee does leave something to be desired (and is served in styrafoam cups! gasp!), the atmosphere is funky and fun - a great place to enjoy a smoothie or a cone on a weekend afternoon. But be prepared - this is somewhat of a So. Pas institution and can be mobbed with customers.
- Pros: Location, atmosphere
- Cons: Crowds, Coffee

double-scoop

My favorite frozen treat ever is a thick Buster's malt, and the shop is that rare kind of place where you can sit back and enjoy your snack without hassle. Upstairs is perfect for gazing out the window at the growing street scene, talking with a friend, or just soaking up some serious quiet. Deliciousness.
- Pros: the malts, cozy space
- Cons: maybe parking

Make it a Mocha
by LondonJMC at Citysearch
A local favorite in South Pasadena, I came here for ice cream when I was a kid and now I go for their ice blended mocha's. If you don't want to overdose on the caffeine and you want to know that there is chocolate in a mocha, these babies are a hit!
The Details on Buster's Coffee-Ice Crm Shop
The Extras:
Coffee drinks are made to order and smoothies come in flavors like espresso. There are also Italian sodas and root beer floats (with anything from a scoop of mint and chip to rocky road).
Know Before You Go:
The cafe is located just off the Metro Gold Line station, so leave the car at home and give public transporation a try.
