    Giant cinnamon roll.

    From the coffee, to the croissant breakfast sandwich, clam chowder bowl and the giant cinnamon roll. This place was delicious and the staff were great.

    Peanut butter, butterscotch blended mocha.

    Great food, exceptional service. We really enjoy their chowder, the baked goods are wonderful and they make a damn fine cup of coffee.

    The Depot has always been one of our favorite places for special occasions on the Long Beach…read morePeninsula. We own a house in Long Beach, and during the time we lived there full-time, this was our go-to spot for anniversaries and my husband's birthdays. It exudes that cozy, historic Seaview charm that invites you to relax and linger...warm, intimate, and full of character without being over the top. A true small-town and now not so hidden gem. My husband is a fan of their Old Fashioneds, particularly those with a smoked maple twist, and he often gravitates back to the slow-braised pork. Their current Southern Comfort Pork dish is just his style: slow-braised pork shoulder served over brown sugar yam mash with jalapeño creamed corn, green onion, and maple-bacon salsa. That's comfort food crafted with real culinary skill. As someone who follows a plant-based diet, I truly appreciate how The Depot makes an effort to accommodate vegetarian and vegan diners in a way that feels genuine rather than forced. Last winter, I was thrilled to discover the ginger-coconut soba noodles, they were flavorful, satisfying, and perfectly balanced. Their current mika soba noodles with garlic-ginger coconut cream, vegetables, toasted cashews, and cilantro are exactly the kind of dish I'm thankful to find on a Peninsula menu. I also have fond memories of Burger Wednesdays from our time on the Peninsula. It's incredible how satisfying a customized portobello burger can be when a kitchen understands texture and seasoning especially in a place where plant-based options can still be scarce. The food is fantastic, but the service deserves a special mention. While Peninsula restaurants are known for their good service, The Depot's service is exceptional: polished, friendly, warm, and just the right amount of attentive. Although we now reside in California, we plan to make another reservation when we return to the Long Beach Peninsula in July. I'm already looking forward to their summer menu. Note: I've forgotten to take photos so the ones on this review are from the restaurants social media - definitely a reflection of our last meal at The Depot without the drinks.

So you try to be more efficient and reduce expenses But having less spirt choices at the bar maybe shouldn't be one, or not having any options to tweet a choice, or not fully cooking potatoes in the chowder, or... I don't have the challenge of running a restaurant these days, but I do have choices of where to dine. It's a good restaurant, it was just so much better.

Immediately as we walked through the door we were greeted and asked if we wanted a highchair. Originally weren't going to stop because my kids already ate but both my husband and I were starving. We both ordered a ham eggs Benedict, and can I say that it was the BEST Hollandaise Sauce I've ever had. It was served with hash browns. I wish I was a little more adventurous and got the crab Benedict, but maybe next time. I ordered a Tequila Sunrise, and my husband got a Bloody Mary. My drink was not strong, which was nice for a breakfast drink. My kids ordered hot chocolates, they both loved them. My oldest said it was very rich. The parking was very small, but there was free street parking out front, there is also a cute little pond in the yard adjacent to the to the restaurant, the staff even gave my children Pennies to make a wish into it.

The waitress refuelsed to let us sit at either table by the window because there was 10 minutes left until they closed, and it was 'entirely possible' two parties of 10 would come in and need those tables. Ugh, okay, wouldn't want to make any money from three paying customers who wanted all the breakfast foods in hopes that a party might come in and fill that table. Seems like an easy choice to make. You're a business, take our money. So no pics or anything because we didn't even get the opportunity to eat there.
