A Guide to Glendale Coffee Shops
Regent Coffee Roasters
Graced by the inviting smell of coffee, wooden workbenches paired with power outlets, and all the magnificent trappings of a passionate independent roaster, Regent is a charming java sanctuary among Glendale coffee shops. It was founded by Leon, a man who abandoned a lucrative position in the field of investment banking to spend more time with his daughter and live a life full of life itself. The art of coffee roasting both fascinates and excites him, this is why Regent is dedicated to discovering and pouring the perfect flavor profile combinations into every visitor’s steamy cup.
One such tastefully unique blend is the Bourbon Barrel Aged Coffee, for which, they use new American oak barrels to obtain the desired strength of whiskey tone, giving the coffee a perfect finish. It’s a subtle long-lasting note that doesn’t override the coffee profile.
Highlight Coffee

Their signature beverages impress too, there’s a phenomenal butterscotch latte, espresso pom-tonic infused with house-made grenadine, and coffee lemonade AKA “Nathan Palmer,” whose description reads, “Yup.
