Highlight Coffee began in 2016 when owner Frank Kim — formerly of Cafe Demitasse in Little Tokyo — opened the Glendale flagship in a soaring former bank rotunda on East Broadway. A second location followed on Lincoln Avenue in Pasadena.
The program is built on flight-quality beans, friendly baristas, and a small-batch food menu that ranges from Bread Lounge pastries to the cult-favorite kimchi spam croissant. There is no upcharge for oat or almond milk. There is no rush. Filter coffee, not people.
Espresso meets house-made butterscotch and the milk of your choice — at no upcharge. Pair it with the kimchi spam croissant and you'll understand why people drive in from across the city.
