I went twice in 1 day. In the afternoon, and then a stop-by after dinner. I definitely had the jitters that night! (but it was worth it) Most drinks are $5.25 -Iced Banana Latte: A little too sweet. But you can really taste the banana milk. - Hot Banana Latte: The coffee is much stronger than the iced version. Theres only a hint of banana taste. Liked it! - Iced Strawberry Latte: I preferred the banana over this one. Also came with 2 espresso shots. I also REALLY like their cookies. They are homemade and theyre GINORMOUS. Ive tried the Healthy Cookie (almonds, sunflower seeds, cherries, oats, nuts) and the Oatmeal Raisin (really thick cookie, so amazing). They also have Oreo, Peanut Butter, and Chocolate Chip. Will be back for more cookies and lattes. :)

The Best Americano! I stopped going to Starbucks after discovering this place. Sorry Starbucks! I brought my mom and few friends here and they all became regular here. My moms friends all come here too now. Its my fault if this place is crowded.. Oops! Bit pricey but they have been really nice and gives me my second cup of Americano on the house. Yay! But dont forget to tip! I live in Placentia and I really really wish they opened up a second store in my city. We really can use some nice coffee place. Actually... Maybe not.. I would be completely broke if they opened up near by me. Haha! Their cookies are so yummy! A little too sweet sometimes but with Americano its perfect..

So happy with my visit here. Came to purchase some coffee beans to make at home, and was offered a free pour over. It was deliciously balanced! Upon entering the shop, I was expecting to see a row of coffee packages to choose from, but they actually pack it for you after you order it. They have a board to the right of the counter with their offerings, and you can choose from an 8oz or 12oz bag. My 12oz bag of Espresso Blend was only $13. The owner or barista also made an effort to learn my flavor preferences and gifted me a sample of their Ethiopia Koke. I also noticed that they are an award winning coffee roaster. Will be back soon for the awesome coffee and hospitalality :)

It is a cute cafe to spend some time there. They have really yummy cookies ( I like the oatmeal cookies) and waffles. We ordered the plain waffles but it still came with fruits and some other toppings. I would go there to spend an afternoon and get some study done. They also roast their own coffee beans, so its interesting to see. Their coffee is alright. I usually get their teas. The staffs there were all pretty friendly. The plaza sometimes can get busy and it would be hard to find parking. I ended up parking in the residential area once.

Today, I had the cafe latte with some friends, with the affogoto, peanut butter cookie, and roll cake. The cookie was huge and tasted homemade. It was around $2.75, about 3-4 inches across and at least half an inch thick! It had a crunchy outside and chewy, moist inside. The cafe latte had a lot of crema in it baturally from being made, with a rich taste and scent. It was full bodied, not too dark and not too milky. They dont dilute the cafe latte. Plus, our cashier was nice and friendly, service being a sweet extra.

they dont have great materials to make the coffee theyre selling.& Look I get it, single origin coffee will be a bit more expensive but everywhere else that serves specialty coffee is significantly cheaper then what your selling. Sorry but your using plastic cheap poor overs and obviously dont realize the million coffee shops in long beach with higher quality equipment and better coffee! Save your money people, they wont last.

I like their ambience and their menu. Its a small cafe that offers amazing coffee and desserts. It has a large parking lot and their store is divided by a wall so people could study in the other room while some people sit on the other side of the wall to chat with their friends. The baristas are very polite and helpful when introducing their coffee or teas and this place is kept clean and nice.

Very so-so coffee. I had questions about various types of beans but the cashier didnt understand what I was asking for and probably cannot speak much English. Also, the mom behind the counter reprimanded a younger staff in front of customers. Very uncool! The building needs some serious repairs since the ceiling leaks when it rains.

Amazing coffee. Roasted and brewed the way it should be. Owner seemed very passionate about coffee and has extensive knowledge. Their morning scones are probably the best in town as far as I know of. But they sell out way too fast... I like their straight out pour overs than their espresso and espresso drinks.

They roast their own beans. Anna Ill usually purchase a large bag and get an Americano. Not many places in the area that can compete. They open a little later than most coffee shops (10am) and are closed Mondays for coffee classes. I usually purchase a bag of beans and get an Americano to go.

I have started going only to coffee shops that roast their own coffee, and this is the place that (for me) started it all. The taste is exceptional. Why anyone prefers coffee roasted non-locally is beyond me. NOTHING makes a bigger difference in flavor.

This place is a very cozy shop, the pour over is great, I highly recommend it with an Ethiopian bean. The only downside is the parking, its way too small for the amount of businesses in the area. Other than that very solid coffee shop.

Very bitter coffee. Seemed to be out of the flavors they kept suggesting. Loud, questionable selection of music. Not sure what this coffee shop is trying to be.

Best coffee in town, seriously! All of their dessert are made fresh everyday, my favorite is their peanut butter cookie with iced caramel latte.

Fresh and clean environment. Wood based decorated. Music is perfectly loud. Coffee is alright, not bad :)

Just went here now for a caffeine fix, cold brew hit the spot! Took some beans to go too!

Good coffee. Really nice that they roast themselves. They dont have dark roasts, though.
