    Dulce de leche latte
    Angelette W.

    Very cute small coffee shop. The inside feels like you are having coffee with your family and the tree out front makes it feel like a tiny garden. The food is amazing and light, the dulce de leche coffee was a sweet treat.

    Great spot to stop by for coffee on my way to church or while taking a walk in the neighborhood. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. It's rarely crowded, so you can get in and out fast. It's set up more like your grandparents or great aunts home would be, making it feel like visiting the family's elders for coffee. The drinks are always really good and super strong. They have a large selection of syrups to choose from and some pastries and desserts. Food is also served but I have not tried any yet.

    We live in Long Beach and pass this cute shop all the time, for the past three years I've been wanting to try the Birdcage. Veterans Day 2025 I finally had the opportunity to try, and it was worth it! The croissant sandwiches (we tried both ham and turkey sandwiches) and they were savory and filling. Very delicious. The Mexican Coffee & Cafe Latte were tasty too! The service was nice, the staff brought our meal to our table outside. On a side note, the plants and decor are so beautiful. The restaurant has an impressive dragon fruit plant strung along the wall out front that was super cool!

    Cute place off the main drag. Super cute inside. I got the pomegranate ice tea which was really good. My kids got the coffee but they said it was just alright.

    I love coming here ! Step into a different space curated for the community . Try the cinnamon muffin, thank me later

    The Iced Horchata Latte and Parmesan Bagel was so good I ate half before I remembered to take a picture.

    Wow this is my first time in the area, I love exploring new places and I found such an amazing cafe! The Iced Horchata latte was really good, I paired it with Parmesan Bagel amazing! The service here is top notch paired with a beautiful place to sit and be at peace. The jazz music was a nice touch as well! 10/10 would recommend. (Park in the street, not the lot next to the building)

    This place is right out of a movie. Very nicely decorated with super friendly staff and great coffee and food. A must visit if in this area of California.

    I'm new in the neighborhood and decided to take a walk to find a coffee shop and came across this gem. They have Delicious coffee, the horchata latte is so good! The bagel and cream cheese was phenomenal. And the top it off, the staff was incredibly sweet! I will definitely be coming back!

    This building is so beautiful both inside and outside! The decorations are so "homey" and welcoming. There is soo much seating both inside and outside as well. The coffee is 10/10. The worker (possibly the owner) was very helpful and interacting with his customers, playing chess which i loved seeing :). I cant wait to come again!

    Croissant and chocolate azteca.

    The ambiance is what you come here for. The outside is quaint and beautiful with the dragonfruit plants and greenery crawling up the walls. The service is alright and the foods and drinks aren't anything spectacular that you can't get anywhere else. It wouldn't necessarily be somewhere I would go out of my way for. The day we went, I was a little disappointed because we didn't see any parrots outside, which is what we came for.

    Just moved to the long beach area and this place was soo good! The vibes i got from here was such homey, very clean and nothing but good energy from this place. I got a ham sandwich on a everything bagel it was one of the best sandwiches i have had with a side of jalepenos and carrots in the juice sooo delicious! For my drink i got a iced vanilla latte everything was so perfect i was highly impressed. Will for sure come back here in the near future as i am trying to enjoy all the local coffee shops around the neighborhood Thank you for the awesome hospitality

    This is a charming little neighborhood coffee shop on Fourth, just west of Pacific, in the shadow of the Dolly Varden Hotel. The proprietor is a very nice man, who takes pride in his establishment. We had an enjoyable morning visiting and drinking coffee together. There are lots of interesting things to look at around the shop and the parrots were quite entertaining in the tree by the outside tables. Street parking.

    My girlfriend and I were looking for a caffeine boost to get us through Sunday when we stumbled…read moreupon Recreational Coffee in Downtown Long Beach. 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!

Ordered and it didn't take long at all to get it. Did they even add espresso? Who knows because the latte was weak. It barely had any hint of coffee. I asked if the latte was sweet and they said it wasn't. After the first sip I could just taste all sweetness no espresso. Recreational coffee do you guys add espresso to the lattes? Maybe I should have ordered something else not sure.

We ordered coffee and some sandwiches and very good! We truly appreciated the kindness of the staff and enjoyed the coffee/tea and food.

Let's start with service: the woman at the front was very dry, quiet, and uninterested. We tried asking her if we could add cold foam or sweet cream to our drinks to make them sweeter, and she said it was only available on seasonal drinks. As an avid matcha latte consumer, this made zero sense to me. While I don't blame her bc she likely had nothing to do with that decision, she wasn't kind in relaying that information or trying to help me find something on the menu I may like. Her demeanor remained the same when my friend ordered his drink, and we both felt a very negative energy coming from this woman, simply put it didn't seem like she wanted to be there taking our order. This was around 1pm last Saturday (the 21st of March), so they had a decent amount of customers, but it wasn't some crazy morning rush. Forward to the drink : we grabbed our drinks which came out promptly. I tasted my matcha and just as I suspected due to the lack of sweetness, it just tasted like grassy chalk. I assumed that my friends latte would be better, as matcha can tend to have an earthy taste to it to begin with. Then I tried his... chalky and sour. Due to the lack of customization and the barista's attitude, we just took a couple sips and tossed our drinks. It was a super negative experience for a place I really really wanted to like. I think allowing people to use sweetener and cold foam on more than just seasonal lattes would be a great first start, and perhaps training the staff on appropriate customer interaction would also help. Loved the branding on this spot, but it seems like the people who work there don't want to be there and it really put a damper on the experience, and for a place so cute, the drinks and vibes should be top notch.
