    Next Level Breakfast Sando
    Jacqueline L.

    I sometimes house-sit on weekends in Long Beach and randomly came across this spot on DoorDash, so I decided to give it a try. Honestly, I almost wish I hadn't--because now I'm completely hooked. The coffee is perfect--sweet and creamy, exactly how I like it. And the "Next Level Breakfast Sando" truly lives up to its name. It's seriously next level. My only downside is the price--it comes out to about $37 before tip, which adds up fast. But it's so good that I'll definitely keep treating myself to it every now and then.

    The place is cute and clean, the food was good even though it was pricey with no side with any of their sandwiches. The drinks tasted okay with a better presentation than taste. The staff was very friendly and polite and they answered all of my questions. My recommendation would be to add a side to their meals or lower their prices to stay in business.

    This is a lovely coffee shop and cafe next to the historic Lafayette Hotel in downtown Long Beach (Broadway & Linden). We learned, from the owner, that they have another location in HB and that this is their second location. They offer a full complement of interesting espresso beverages, as well as pastries and prepared foods for breakfast and lunch. Seating is available inside and outside on the tranquil tree lined street. It was just so pleasant and relaxing to enjoy our coffee here this morning. I did try the rosemary latte and it was delicious!

    Super cute.

    Super cozy, earthy cafe in Long Beach has a warm welcoming vibe. It's a vibey spot to grab a quick coffee and enjoy a peaceful walk down Broadway towards the beach. (Love this part of Long Beach) While I was out running errands, I decided to stop by and treat myself. I had a honey vanilla cinnamon latte--absolutely delightful--and a breakfast Sando to go. :) I truly enjoyed my visit and would happily return again. It's a place that feels warm and inviting. Service was fast & wonderful.

    Stopped off here as it was nearby my hotel and grabbed a cup of coffee and a croissant sandwich. Called a sando. Food is pretty good the service was pretty quick and the atmosphere is pretty airy.

    Stopped by Steadfast Café with my 2-year-old and really liked it here. I got the banana toast, strawberry banana smoothie, next level breakfast sando, and a hot chocolate. Everything was solid. The food was fresh, the smoothie was perfect, and the hot chocolate was really good too. The place is clean, has a nice vibe, and the staff were super friendly. It's also a comfortable spot to sit and relax with a kiddo. Update: Ordered delivery this time for me and my spouse, and it was just as good as dining in. We got the breakfast sando, lavender latte, and sweet toast -- everything arrived fresh, warm, and really well-packed. The presentation was impressive for delivery, nothing messy or soggy, just clean and perfectly put together. My spouse was super happy with it too, especially the lavender latte and the sweet toast. You can tell they take care with their packaging and quality even for takeout orders.

    Lox Bagel with Cream Cheese & White Mocha
    Lisa D.

    Stopped by Steadfast Coffee and loved it. The white mocha was perfectly balanced--not too sweet--and the lox bagel was fresh and delicious. Service was friendly and efficient, which always makes the experience better. Definitely a solid spot for great coffee and bites. Will be back!

    Next Level Breakfast Sando
    Heather H.

    Super good coffee, food, and employees! I got the next level breakfast sandwich on multigrain bread and it was so delicious! For coffee just a black drip which was good too! They turn their music up to set the vibe and it's a great place! Will be back again when in town :)

    Lovely paintings the owner's daughter made.

    Friendly and down-to-earth neighborhood cafe. Lovely ambiance and good variety of food/drinks to choose from. Stopped by to check out the place before my haircut across the street at Dapper & Dames. I have been to this location when it was a boba tea place, which was nice too. Feel like this place will actually stick longer than any of the other establishments that have been in this location. I ordered their pomegranate tea and an everything bagel. Sat outside to eat/drink. Grabbed an Acai bowl to bring to Zoe and Karla so they can eat in between haircuts. Will be back with my computer to work and hang out (and have food and drinks too, of course)!

    Honey Vanilla Latte (medium), perfectly prepared Lox Bagel

    What a lovely spot. Clean and inviting with a homey vibe. Monica whipped up an awesome Honey Cinnamon Latte with a Lox bagel for me and everything about it is simply spot on, not to mention she was very kind and warm. Quite happy to have stumbled in here and forwent the morning necessitated coffee (non descriptive coffee and run) grind and took a min to enjoy a more relaxed start. An enjoyable beginning to the day.

    Matcha special @yassiG
    Yassi G.

    Matcha was delicious ! It was one of their specials. I ordered the avocado toast w scrambled eggs as well as an almond croissant. So good! Everything tasted great. Service was wonderful; kind, quick, and calm. Interior had some seating, cute decor and relaxed vibe.

    I came with a friend around lunch time to get a quick coffee. The service was okay, we we're welcomed when we came in. The vibe was nice and inviting. We were able to get the bogo deal and I got the iced next level espresso sugar free latte. My friend ordered the rose cardamom coffee. My coffee was really good, strong and not too sweet. My friends coffee was made iced but she ordered a hot coffee. This is not appreciated. Overall, I feel the drinks are good but expensive. The regular price with tax is $6 for a small coffee.

A very welcoming vibe upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly couple who answered our questions about popular drink flavors. We decided to go with a Hot Cinnamon Dulce Latte and an Iced Blueberry Lavender Latte. While waiting, there were plenty of chairs, tables, a comfy couch and even a bar area to sit and relax. Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me! Not to worry, her Blueberry Lavender Latte was also top-notch, with a smooth, not-to-sweet flavor combination. Friendly staff (which comes with occasional karaoke renditions from the Bluetooth speakers), a chill vibe and outstanding drinks make this a top spot in the area for hardcore coffee lovers. Check them out!

I started with a cup of their beef and barley soup. My wife and I both make this at home from scratch and we're both impressed by theirs. My wife took a taste of mine and instantly ordered her own. Very rich and flavorful. I kept looking at photos of their take on chicken and waffles and knew I had to try it. Seriously epic and was good as it looked. They coated the chicken in a chili rub that gave it a sweet and spicy flavor when paired with their maple syrup. Served on top of a waffle and topped with an egg. I loved it and would probably order again on my next visit. My wife had the American plate which was your classic eggs, bacon, potatoes, and sourdough toast combo. High quality ingredients elevated it beyond your typical diner food. Drinks were great too. I had their house made bloody mary which had a nice kick to it. My wife had their brunch version of a Corpse Reviver cocktail. After our meals were done we finished with an Irish coffee since everyone was ordering them. Perfect service, relaxing atmosphere, and delicious food will definitely have me returning very soon! Parking is free for 2 hours at the nearby garage on 3rd and is a very short walk. The closer garage on Broadway is not free. You can make restaurant reservations on their website but it wasn't needed when we went.

TLDR; It's expensive, and not worth the routine visit, but worth the one-time stop in to experience the festivities. The Miracle pop-up at The Ordinarie is somehow even more decorated and extravagant than you'd expect from a seasonal pop-up. The line looks long outside, as there are no reservations, but it moves quickly since they hold everybody to a pretty strict 2-hour time limit. The drinks are good, the cups are cute, and everyone is festive. It's an all-around fun experience.  I think because of this, you do pay a premium price tag for food and drinks that are just good or okay. I think it's something that is worth the visit if you've never been and you enjoy getting into the Christmas spirit. I think that outside of the pop-up, The Ordinarie is a fun spot to check out in Long Beach. It't not a pillar of the food scene if you're a tourist, but it is a good, late night spot if you work in the industry nearby. They have a great late-night menu with a killer smash burger.

First, a heads-up: parking in the area can be a bit of a challenge, so plan ahead and expect to look for street parking. That said, once you arrive, everything runs impressively smoothly.

What really stood out was the thoughtful Mother's Day touch. While we were in line, they offered champagne and gave out roses, white for mothers who are no longer with us and red for those who are. Such a beautiful and meaningful gesture. Once seated, drinks came out quickly, and the food followed shortly after.

Bristy, our server, thoroughly explained the details of certain dishes such as the Mac & Cheetos. She also checked in on our table throughout the meal and came around often to refill our water. As for the food itself, it was very delicious. My favorite dish was the artichokes. They had a somewhat smoky flavor and the outermost leaves were crunchy and a nice contrast to the soft inside of the artichokes. They were also served in a tangy sauce that complimented the vegetable well. My friend's favorite item was the macaroni and cheese. It was chewy and creamy, and the pasta, which Bristy informed us was made in-house, was what my friend thought elevated the dish because it was a nice texture. We additionally ordered the gumbo which was also tasty but not as yummy as the other two dishes that we ordered. It is not a spicy dish if one is concerned about spice level.

There is inside seating what looks like a converted house? There is outside seating at tables or at the bar. The menu was interesting which had a theme of shrimp; there was eggs Benedict with shrimp, but not an item to order a regular one without it? Sure maybe could have ordered and asked without shrimp but pay the same price? Pass. Ok when I called they mentioned they serve brunch until 3? 3:30 I can't remember. The server mentioned they serve the brunch all day? Either way when I got to ordering this month on the menu it highlighted the shrimp po boy. I tried to order and nope, out. How can you be out of the item highlighted as the special in the middle of the day? When the place is not packed? I tried to order the lobster roll and again, out. I was tempted to order their short rib poutine since in theory it sounded good, but at this point I tried something simple I would hope they have in the kitchen chicken and waffles. The plate came and it looks good. If you look at the picture at the bottom of the chicken you can see a dark something. As I lift my chicken I found a huge burnt piece of breading pictured next. On top of the chicken is green onion I think? Who eats that with chicken and waffles? If I am wrong, a garnish is totally unnecessary for this dish. The chicken was moist. There are spices in the flour breading I can see but hard to taste what it is. The waffle is a hard pass for me. The waffle was crispy which is good, but also thin and dry and I couldn't taste any sweetness until I put maple syrup on it. The syrup came out warm which was nice. It's clear watching the people at the bar this is a local hangout. The chicken and waffles were $19 which if I was in the bay I think it's about right, but I think a little high considering the level of food I got. Supposedly this place is packed specifically on Sundays. The server doesn't know why? I'm not interested to even try to come back for a second chance and just be told sold out of the menu.
