The coffee (Americano) is reasonably priced. The order taker was friendly and greeted me as I walked in which gave me a welcoming vibe. The barista silently placed my Americano in front of me. My Americano was very hot which is how I prefer my coffee. The interior space is contemporary and modern. To my surprise, I was the only person in the store during a time when I would expect to see two-three persons having a morning coffee. read more

Nice new coffee shop which has a spacious and bright seating area. I got a delicious hot rose oat milk latte. The coffee is smooth and balanced. I also appreciated that they had vegan options (burrito, croissant, and peanut butter cookie). I ordered a vegan croissant toasted and it was really tasty. Parking is difficult but I will be adding this to my rotation of local coffee shops! read more

I love Lavazza coffee so this was a no brainer. Unless you are a local, finding a parking spot might be difficult depending on the day and time since it is metered street parking, but just keep driving around the block until you find something. The place has good views to the street and comfy seating througout. They have a varied selection of drinks and pastries here. I got a apricot marmalade croissant warmed up and got that called out first. I ordered two drinks at the same time but had to wait 5 minutes in between the café lattes i ordered. One of the lattes I ordered was a hazelnut latte and it was not hot enough when given to me so I took it back and asked if they could make me a new one. Instead of remaking a new drink, they resteamed the milk on the original drink so hot I couldn't drink it for another 10 minutes. I burned my tongue on the drink because it was overheated so much. No matter what at this point the drink will be inferior due to the resteaming. This is a big no no but i already am missing out drinking together with the person i came with, so i didnt want to take it back nor wait any longer. Cool barista uniforms adds to the ambiance but even cooler if the baristas know what they are doing and make the coffee drinks right. I wanted to enjoy this place and there is a lot of good things about it, but obviously the main thing is the coffee and I wasnt happy with my experience. Please train your staff better in the art of coffee making, especially if you're going to represent Lavazza. read more

Qargo Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Great place to grab a coffee, pastry and work for a while. Tons of seating indoors and comfy patio outside with cushy, shaded seating. Service is fast and friendly. Great place to chill read more

Horrible. Bagel was microwaved so hard you couldn't bite into it and over priced. Save yourself the trouble

TLDR: Ask for Ashley!! Get the iced caramel latte!! And enjoy the ambiance! I walk in and am immediately greeted by all the employees. The menu is vast and contains breakfast scones, croissants, sandwiches as well as several unique drink combinations. I tried the iced caramel latte and they serve it for aesthetics and require you to mix it. Totally love the idea. The ambiance is very chill and has plenty of seating. Definitely a good spot for studying too. All the staff is so nice and helpful, I will be coming back very often! read more

Thank you for the awesome suggestion! The passion fruit cold brew was such a different drink than what I would usually get from a new coffee shop. I surprisingly really enjoyed it. The barista at the register told me it was delicious so of course I'm going to try it for myself. I'm absolutely coming back again! Also the interior was beautiful. It's a perfect place to study. read more

Qargo Coffee - Passion Me Cold Brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Great service, comfortable seating (inside and out), good security, calm crowd but hard to find parking.

I keep giving this place a chance since it's located in my building, but this will be it. I am told they are out of at least half my order every time. Mostly it's milks , syrups, choices of tea, or bagels/pastries. Sometimes it's lids for cups, which makes driving impossible. Today I was told I could only get a refund on the app, which does not have that option. No management on site either. read more

A friend invited me to try this new coffee shop, normally I don't like big chains coffee shops, but I love my friend, so I said "yea" we ordered, the lattes took a little bit to get ready ,mine was half cup full and my friend was just too hot, the coffee didn't tasted like Lavazza Coffee at all, but we grabbed two sandwiches, that is not made there, that's why I prefer small business owners coffee shops, everything have so much taste and freshness. My two stars is for the 'sandwiches", at first sight the place looks very nice, but the sofa they have there is like seating on a rock, very uncomfortable, I'm a designer and I can't help by noticed the low quality material of their decorations :/ (quality = comfort) I do not recommend, because we went back the next day, to give one more chance and was the same result. read more

Since Yelp is a place that people always check for the reviews and feedback on restaurants and places to go, here goes mine; to start I'm totally disappointed, Lavazza is such a good brand of coffee, but this place managed to ruin it, the coffee tasted so bad, just like the energy, strange for a bright day, the employees are very unprofessional, I heard them talk about how bad their manager is, and how they are cutting their hours, not news to me, because this place is always empty, all my friends asked me if I tried their coffee, I always let them talk first about their experience, and is always the same, "they don't know what they are doing", for this reason I started to questioning the other "5 stars reviews". I truly wish to be writing a better one, I love to support my local business, but I'll continue to walk to Vons in the morning for their not so great Starbucks. Just one more thing, my coffee took so long to be made (without a line of people) and their conversation about internal issues, made so upset that I was late for work. I don't recommend, the one star was for the chocolate chip muffin. read more

Visiting from NorCal. Location is pristine. Furniture is very comfortable and lends itself to the classy and sophisticated aesthetic. Temperature cooled and perfect for getting work done, enjoying a date or spending time with oneself. Friendly employees providing great service and a new take on drinks. Will recommend to my friends and family that live here. NorCal needs a Qargo! read more

Qargo Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Really would like to enjoy this place as it's a short walk away from my place. But the coffee is just horrendous. It tastes grainy and has a weird metallic taste. I will never go here again. Save your money and make a cup of coffee at home. It'll be infinitely better. read more

I walk by this coffee shop all the time, but today was the first time I went in. I stood in line at the register with 4 other guests behind me while the 2 employees just talked and didn't help any of us. When I ordered and asked a question about a drink, the employee couldn't give me any description of the drink and didn't know what was in it. I ordered it anyway and was about to pay when she told me that didn't have any boba (I ordered a bubble tea drink). I was really disappointed and didn't order anything and walked out. Definitely won't be going back there again. read more

The nutty nitro is my go to, but they have tons of excellent options. The staff is helpful and the location is 10/10

Attended the grand opening and it was so much fun! The coffee shop itself is such a vibe. I can see myself working from here and enjoying the beautiful view of Ocean blvd. Everything is so bright and the place is clean and inviting. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The iced latte was really good and not too sweet. I tried the jalapeño cheddar cheese bagel and it was delicious! The baristas are so sweet and the outfits go with the theme of the shop. The red velvet cake was really good too! I will be back! read more

I jog past this place every morning and always wanted to try it. It looks inviting and friendly but sadly I did not have this experience. The cashier was not friendly or inviting to me or my husband. He wanted a banana boba drink and all was said was "no boba." No other suggestions or no other options. My husband asked can he just do a banana drink? He sighed, walked away, looked, and said they're all out. The rest of the interaction was filled with no eye contact and sighs. I'm not sure if it was due to us not fitting their business casual aesthetic, to the fact a homeless man asked us for a coffee and we said yes, or just because of us. But it was an even bigger blow when the man behind us was smiled to, looked at, and interacted with. After all this we were given the wrong order. I do not like getting treated this way and no one should either. The drink was good but I will not be coming back read more

This is my favorite brand of espresso so naturally I love all their lattes. The last time I was there I got a latte with toasted marshmallow flavor and it was very good. The food is surprisingly good here! The breakfast sandwich is super tasty and a decent size too! Lots of outdoor seating which is always a huge plus for me, a good amount of comfy indoor seating as well. Very friendly service. I think the only downside is it just has a "chain" vibe to it and because it's downtown the parking isn't the greatest, but that's just me being super picky and critical. Love this place and will definitely go back!!! read more

Management and owners seem extremely unprofessional from how I saw them treating the staff. I have never seen more than two employees maximum working at once when I come in. I have to assume the staff aren't properly trained by management either, because despite ordering the same drink every time it somehow tastes different each day. read more

Bruhhh I wanted to like this place so bad as the aesthetic is a 10/10 as far as cool coffee shops go but this place was just not it at all! I asked for something sweet and I got a one of the worst cold brews I ever had in my life! Granted I asked nicely and the barista remade me another iced drink salted caramel and caramel drizzle as well as I ordered a chai latte that was decent and a breakfast sandwhich that was good only if your starving and also feel like throwing your cash away. The place was pricey which I expect for great coffee , Starbucks etc but this place does not know what a good coffee should taste like . I was hella disappointed just like any normal human being I hate wasting money on food , drinks not up to par. Staff was polite , place was clean but sadly won't return read more

I have visited twice now. The lattes are good. The Belgian waffles are amazing when heated. (They are the European style waffles that have sugar pearls, and are to be eaten by hand as you would a cookie). The first time I ordered one it was perfect. The second time I ordered two and both were unevenly heated and therefore less so. They really need to be very warm for this style waffle to get the sugar warm. (Probably both were thrown in at once at the same time and therefore both got only warm in patches.). The place is quiet and the decor is cool. I really liked the wood wall--pretty much the whole design vibe. It would be a great place to hang out for a bit--except the lit and animated menu screens are distracting and doesn't fit the vibe at all. They probably were pricey, but they make the whole place feel cheap. The menu screens would be better off in an airport coffee place or truck stop. The moving and dancing drinks would catch my eye and distract me from my companion. I moved to the other side of the wall and all was well again. read more

I ordered delivery, so did not get a chance to experience the atmosphere. Next time I will be bringing my dogs to try the snacks. The breakfast sandwiches did not stand out to me, but I enjoyed my Cappuccino. I added barista blend oat milk to the Matcha Latte at home because it was not as creamy as preferred. Will go back to try more! read more

Wow! Great coffee and the staff is very cool! We were staying only a block away. So glad we found them!

Waited 30 minutes for a waffle, was told it was because they were making fresh whipped cream. Firmly believe the waffle never existed and was apart of an experiment. read more

The space is cool and the coffee is very good. Americano was solid and my choc chip cookie was good. Stayed for a while and charged my phone. read more

Not good coffee. Not fresh. The location was great because it was in long beach downtown

Great coffee and great service every time. Conveniently located downstairs from my home so that's also an awesome plus!

I got the americano and it was very good. I also got the jalapeño cheese and sausage biscuit, which was a good size and tasted great.

Service is great (the stars are for them) - staff super friendly and welcoming! I live in the apartment next to this place and unfortunately I am not coming back here. I went here twice - first time I just got a vanilla latte and with less ice but it still tasted watered down. Today, I got a ciabatta sandwich from the "grab and go" section (even had a label - made fresh, and it was practically inedible. For $12 it was HIGHLY overpriced for a super stale sandwich. The meat tasted super fake but what really got to me was the bread... if was hard to even swallow. I did not ask for my receipt but if I had it I would've kindly asked for a refund. Buying that sandwich felt like a slap to a customer's face. Super disappointed. Hoping this place can take necessary measures to make sure food like that is not served. read more

Service is literally terrible . This guy was supposed to charge me for a bagel and didn't because he "forgot " when his attitude was already impatient because he was trying to close up . I got there at 5:20 ... it's 5:48 . I will never come here again . I only came because the girl at Starbucks was on break . Also my hot chocolate was cold .. ended up throwing it away . read more

Not actual baristas they don't know what they are doing. Snobby and overpriced for bad quality coffee. Not friendly or polite customer service. I think they judge you based on your appearance/ clothing that doesn't fly with me. read more

Absolutely terrible service. Broken machines and they don't even say anything, they will still charge you.

I have not tried the food. Ambiance is quite nice when there isn't a homeless person in there with water and 20 packs of sugar like they are preparing a cup of coffee. Today I walked three and was all ready for a nice cup of joe only to be informed that they open at 7AM. If you are going to change your hours, you should update Google and Yelp listings. read more

I've been holding off on writing this for some time, trying to give them a chance, but I literally just bought a coffee, took a sip and decided that I can't keep spending my money on a place that lacks complete consistency with their coffees. Whether it's a caramel frappe or a cortado, a latte - you're either guaranteed a complete miss on flavor and consistency or get lucky with that one employee that finally gets it right. The environment is great, the staff is great, it's a clean and welcoming environment - but for being a coffee shop with good quality Lavazza beans known for having good flavor overall, the lack of training in its staff and the management ensuring that consistency is met falls completely flat. I just bought a caramel frappe and it was completely watered down, barely sweet and I'm actually considering how I can salvage it at this point. Here's hoping someone sees this and takes it seriously. There's countless of great coffee shops within walking distance and I'm thinking it's time I make the extra effort to walk a little further on my daily walks. read more

Qargo coffee is a local favorite of mine. They have a great selection of flavors to add to your tea or coffee. They also offer choices for your fur babies. Apart from your usual "pup cup" they also have a sweet potato cup. If you haven't tried it already, my recommendation is a chai latte with lavender flavor added. (; read more

The fact that this place doesn't allow it's customers to use restroom is wild. Great service, decent coffee and pastry but doesn't make up for the fact this place lacks decent service of providing restrooms for its customers read more

Very average coffee at best. Service was fine and shop was clean. Good location. Just missed on the coffee part.
