This place is cute on the outside and was pretty busy when I went so I was excited to try it out. Good reviews on Yelp too! I don't know if it was just bad luck, bad espresso shot or what, but my hot vanilla latte was not good. It was actually so bitter I went home with an upset stomach. Really wanted to like this place, but it was not for me. read more

Very watered down iced chai, couldn't taste the chai too much and didn't want to bother them to remake it. Although they made it quickly so that was a plus. Nice aesthetic and walkable neighborhood, didn't try the coffee because I don't drink coffee. read more

Since there were no jalapeño scones this weekend, we got a chocolate peanut butter scone hoping it would be as tasty. Nope. Dry as a C.Y.E. choker, however bf really enjoyed it more. Go figure. This update is to be realistic about their baked goods since all scones are not created equal. read more

A cafe more for those who want to be part of "the scene" than those who want an excellent cafe experience. Service was friendly, the coffee good enough (I'd give it a B.) But why was there no sugar? I had to ask for it, and the gentleman had to go to the *back room* to get it. Turned out it was brown sugar, which I dislike in coffee because of its strong own-taste. I didn't even bother to ask for white sugar. When my wife went to get sugar - it was gone. We had to ask for it *again*. Is this like a secret "we know what's better for you and sugar is not it" cabal? Food selection was sparse. Three pieces of pastry on a Sunday morning at 9:00, all of them twice-baked (who ever said that's a good thing?), French toast, while on the menu, was out. Then there were the dogs. Several owners entered with them, and nobody bothered to explain to them that dogs are not allowed in food establishments. Not that I'm overly concerned about hygiene. But when the dogs start a loud barking concert so you can hardly understand your own word anymore - it is time for the beloved pooches to go. This cafe is popular and has good ratings. Perhaps that is because people are desperate - this is a blob of a residential sprawl neighborhood with this being one of the few attractions. read more

This place is an absolute gem! The service was incredibly friendly and honestly the place has great vibes overall. You must try the PB fit latte it has a great peanut butter flavor and the honey sweetens it the perfect amount. It's a creamy coffee that tastes like a great without a bunch of added sugar. The decor is also so cute. I love this place so much I'll definitely be back! read more

Nice vibes and aesthetic inside. Service was great and friendly. Tasty coffee as well.

Third wave cafe, serving thoughtfully sourced coffee. In fact, their coffee is grown on the owner's own family farm in El Salvador. The shop is homey and inviting, with lots of natural light, black paint, and exposed brick. They have a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating. Their menu includes all the classics, plus a few specialty drinks. On a weekday morning, they only had cranberry scones in the case. I opted for their "Double 07", which is described as a foamy iced espresso with oat milk and agave. Right up my alley, I thought. Unfortunately, it was undrinkable. I could tell there was good espresso in there somewhere, but the drink was sickly sweet, and they use Kirkland oat milk, which has a bitter, fermented aftertaste. Black Dog is brand new, so maybe they just need more time to work on quality control. But honestly, in a city with so many exceptional coffee shops and roasters, they need to step up their game. read more

Love. This was the 3rd coffee shop in the 2 mile vicinity I visited. I was like Goldilocks looking for the right place, that felt good. The location, space, vibe, and of course the coffee were all perfect. They have some incredible signature choices and the staff helped me choose the drink for me. I decided on the PB Fit Latte. And I was not disappointed. This place is stellar across all the attributes! Creative drinks, traditional good quality coffee for the true coffee lovers, cozy space, lovely quaint front patio seating, and kind staff. Also- I'm a sucker for cute mugs...and they have that. read more

Really fun ! The double 07 was so yummalish perfect sweetness. We also tried the lavender latte and it was good but the oavender was a little strong I rec doing half sweet. The matcha is good but not incredible. The vibe is the best el música fue divertido and todo es tan bonitaaaa I love the vibe read more

Tried this place today, quite busy on a Saturday morning, which is good. And with everyone hustling behind the counter, we got our drinks fairly quick. We got the jalapeño cheese scone and blueberry scone. Which were pretty good. We also got an iced lavender latte and an iced 007. We really enjoyed both drinks. The lavender latte was nicely balanced, not too sweet not too strong. Similar for the 007 on the sweetness. However, it does have pack more of a caffeine punch. We love that there's so many good coffee shops in LB. But we definitely love that this one is around the corner. We'll definitely come back to try their other drinks. read more

Vanilla latte tasted weak. Overall doesn't taste like it hits. I don't recommend. The place is super clean and has a cute esthetic.

Great coffee and ambiance. The staff was really nice and helpful when answering my questions about the different coffee options. read more

This was such a good find in my search for a quick bite and cold brew! The staff greeted us as soon as we walked in and got our order out quickly. I got a cold brew with stevia and half and half...it was perfection. My friend got an iced oatmilk hazelnut latte and said it was delish. The coffee shop inside is super sweet. We got a 646 burrito which is redeemed outside, fresh made to order on the flattop grill. Get both the chipotle sauce and Verde salsa! I'll be back! read more

This has been my favorite coffee spot for over a year. Their coffee is proportionally balanced and you can actually taste the coffee (not too sweet). I've tried their 007, PB Fit, The Matcha, The Sweet Hulk and they've all been outstanding. They don't overdo it with the ice and they don't charge extra for milk. I would also highly recommend their scones. Go early because they do run out of the scones. read more

Black Dog Coffee Roasters - The 007 and PB Fit - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Long Beach, California

Coffee, food, sweet treats, and gift shopping. Love it as a cafe that steps just outside the "norm" for tourist towns.

Great place to do some work since there is plenty of seating. The baristas were also really friendly and helpful. I got an iced oat Spanish latte and it was pretty good, not too sweet. If you like sweet drinks I'd recommend asking for it sweeter but overall the quality of the coffee was good. Also tried the blueberry lemon coffee cake and it was scrumptious! read more

New coffee shop opened on the corner of 3rd and Cerritos! Just a short walk from my apartment so I'm beyond excited. I tried their chai latte with oat milk, they make their own chai concentrate in house so it's got a special kick to it. If you're a chai girl like me you'll appreciate the spiciness and fact that it doesn't have that artificial taste to it! I think next time i'll try adding a one of their specialty syrups in addition for extra sweetness :) I also got a PB Fit Latte with oat milk for the walk home and WOW it was beyond!!! The flavors tied in so nicely. Peanut butter, honey ,plus a good quality espresso -- 10/10! Staff were very sweet and asked if everything was to your liking, definitely going to make a home out of this place -- welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Check it out, it's worth your time. read more
