I don't ever leave reviews but this was such an amazing experience. I came in around 9:30am and orders the vtm einspanner. The coffee was AMAZING, and the customer service was even better they explained everything so well and they were all kind and ready to help with any questions I had. If you are looking for a great coffee shop with clean vibes and nice and helpful baristas definetly come here. read more

Nice little coffee shop. No seatings indoor. Few tables outdoor. Parking can be hectic. Quick order and pick up. I got the mint mojito. Coffee is diluted, and the mint flavor is sweet and strong. Will not get that again read more

BLK Dot's signature Iced VTM is my favorite! "Our take on traditional Vietnamese coffee" --- made with an intense slow dripped concentrate of house-roasted Arabica beans designed for peak caffeine with their sweetened condensed milk engineered from scratch and their house creamer. It is so rich and so bold..: just so good! Vietnamese coffee taken to new heights. Their only location in Long Beach/ LA County. The rest are in the OC. In the shopping center next to Trader Joe's: Parking is plentiful and there are a few tables on the patio for outdoor dining. Service is quick and friendly. Highly recommended! "Slowly dripped. Highly caffeinated. Extremely concentrated" read more

First time coming to this place. Coffee and bagel were absolutely delicious. But, I must say customer service is HORRIBLE. This place is NOT welcoming at all. Cashier/barista had a long face since we entered took a while for her or the other gal to even acknowledge us as we were the only ones waiting to order. I wish i catched the name of the girl who attended us she needs little more training in customer service. That's how you get customers to come back. Customer service is key to any business. As a PAYING customer I wouldn't come back to a place were I don't feel welcomed. Must point out the cashier asked me if my puppy was a service dog. I said No she told me then you have to wait outside animals aren't allowed in here. I didn't see a sign but wasn't in the mood to point that out to her. Which either way you can't even drink or eat inside since theirs a patio area outside. read more

Blk Dot Coffee - Iced Dulce VTM Latte & Jammin Bagel - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Wonderful coffee and efficient service. This coffee shop is placed right next to a Tesla Supercharging station so it was nice getting to grab coffee while I waited. During prime coffee hours (7ish), it wasn't too busy and my drink was ready in less than 5 minutes. If you're in a rush, you can also make a mobile order ahead of time. I decided to try the VTM iced coffee and it was quite nice. It was rich, sweet, bold, with a small amount of chocolate notes in the coffee. I will most likely order this again when I come back! Note: If you are looking for a coffee shop to study at, this is probably not going to be it. The inside area is small with no indoor seating (but a few outdoor), and it seems this place is mostly serves people on the go. read more

As someone who is preferably coffee for caffeine exchange, I like that blkdot have a variety of items on their menu. This place is a must if you need strong coffee and delicious taste. For a lactose intolerant, however, the menu was a bit limited. Due to the fact that their Vietnamese coffee is already mixed with dairy for all their yummy popular coffee. Fortunately, the cashier/barista was very helpful in giving me and my boyfriend tips on what to order. I got a normal iced coffee, no sugar, and he got matcha latte less sugar and oat milk. Let me tell you, the black ice coffee is not sour nor bitter. Also, I didn't have a stomachache even after drinking this 30 minutes before eating something solid. They might not have an extensive coffee menu, but I appreciate they know how to make their coffee right. Dining area: There are a couple of small tables outfront and quantity chairs for people to enjoy coffee and the sun. Parking: they share a lot with TRADER JOES, jersey Mike's, a shipping store, and other small stores. But there's plenty of parking in the morning Customer Service: Top notch with people willing to help, greet, and soo sunny for such a gloomy weather. read more

Blk Dot Coffee - Iced black coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Came in to grab a coffee and a matcha. The ladies were knowledgeable but didn't seem very friendly. The coffee was .... let's say, that I took one sip, then another to be sure, then left it on the side walk near a trash bin because there was no way I was going to drink near that. The matcha was decent, but if you ask for light ice, they give you less and leave a space on top rather than actually give you your money's worth. Interesting. The place had only one customer. Quiet. Free wifi (according to their sign) Never again. Don't recommend. read more

Drinks were really great, the espresso tasted really fresh and wasn't burnt at all like some other places. I like their small food options too, they offer classics. The interior was modern and light. Pretty clean but small inside. Workers were nice and helpful when I asked about their nondairy creamer & nondairy milk alternatives. read more

The coffee here never disappoints! Customer service could be better. Not very friendly- seems like they don't want to be there. No seating inside, some seating outside. read more

went to try a new coffee place before i went to meet a couple friends at 2nd and pch and everyone was super nice and friendly. store looked cool and my vtm einspanner was amazing. shoutout to mj and layla for helping me decide what drink i should get read more

One of my fav coffee spots, esp for Viet coffee. Their breakfast items and pastries are also really good. I usually get an iced VTM with sea salt foam, but I also recommend the VTM Matcha, tiramisu latte einspanner, or mango yuzu (I think it's seasonal tho). Service is pretty fast too, even during the morning rush. read more

quality has gone down and every time i come here the workers have attitudes. i only come to this location if i HAVE to. so disappointing.

Iced Sea Salt Cold Brew.....so good. Cold Brew is slightly sweet as they add simple syrup. My sister tried the Blackened Mojito Coffee which se loved and my husband had an Iced Chai Tea Latte. Service was quick & friendly. We didn't try any food this time, but I will definitely go back. read more

2.5 stars for Blk Dot. 0 stars for customer service 5 stars for coffee I didn't read the reviews before going here, but after 3 separate occasions and getting 3 lame experiences, I thought I'd look. I share the same sentiments as a lot of these folks. Service is not just sub-par, it's outright rude. I posted this photo to my Instagram as a joke, but sadly, I don't think it was an off day. I feel bad that they're all so miserable, but they should take pride in knowing their coffee is great. There are dozens of coffee shops within a 5-min driving radius, why wouldn't you want to make customers feel welcomed and be thankful for their business?? Weird. read more

Blk Dot Coffee - Maybe they all need more sleep? - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

They don't accept us cash and the coffee sucks. Baristas were rude. It's overpriced and burnt.

Have stopped by this spot a few times per a friendly suggestion, & was hooked! Out of the few quality matcha option in Long Beach, this by far set the expectation. The Uji Matcha Einspänner (I butcher this word so terribly) has such a unique flavoring, with rich, earthy tones in the tea itself to being balanced out by the sweetness of the cream top & chocolate dusting. It comes in at a great deal too, never hitting over $8, which for a Uji, is incredible! While I can't speak for their coffee/espresso selection, nor their teas, I will compliment their intriguing-ness. The shop does lack a seat spacing, with the exception of a few staggering tables & chairs outside. It's located in a smaller shopping center, & across from an even larger one, so taking your beverage with you on a stroll along the shops- or even the shore may be more ideal than sitting. I highly recommend this shop to matcha enthusiasts in the area, looking to try something worth their while. 9/10 read more

First and last visit. Got in line this morning thinking bandit coffee could be another favorite place to go. While in line I see a sign stating they do not accept cash for safety reasons. Being that I have been hacked twice in the last 90 days this was disappointing but stood in line anyway. Then I ordered a large coffee with creamer and I was told they don't have coffee. What the @&$?. I just left bulk dot coffee that doesn't serve coffee. Glancing at the prices and the fact this coffee place does not serve coffee I'm betting this place won't last long. read more

With so many coffee shops in the nearby area, I won't return here solely based on customer service. The man working the register seemed annoyed and/or impatient when we needed a few minutes to look over the menu then continued talking with his coworker when we were ready to order. Hoping management can retrain staff on customer service because I have since visited other Blk Dot locations and all of those had great service. read more

the workers are really nice!! i got the matcha latte with vanilla foam and the quality of the matcha wasn't the best but its also not a matcha spot..i also got the coffee late and was actually good read more

Blk Dot Coffee - Uji Matcha Einspnner - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Mixed feelings. Like their food selection and the food itself, but when you are forced to sit outside, they should have the courtesy of letting you know the food is ready. Mine sat on the counter for at least 5 minutes when I finally decided to go in to find out when my food was going to be ready. They could at least have popped their head out the door and let us know it was ready. It was not that busy. I'm also not a huge fan of their coffee. I do not put sugar in my coffee or espresso so that I can taste the natural sweetness. This is over roasted and bitter. If you like sweet drinks, then it's probably OK for you. I may be back for the food, but will try to instruct them next time. read more

Blk Dot Coffee has to be my favorite lowkey coffee spot in the area! Discovered this place through social media and have had nothing but good experiences! We've had the Black VTM and Hot Honey Latte which were both excellent! BVTM is my personal favorite. Its not too strong and not overly sweet either! Def recommend if you dont mind the jellies. Staff is also very friendly so make sure to give it a try! read more

Been a fan of blk dots Vietnamese coffee for years and had to stop by a new location. I got a large iced VTM and it was great. Definitely catering towards the coffee lovers and tastes really authentic. It's super strong but has the perfect mix of sweet and creamy. I like to let the ice melt a bit as the drink lasts longer and it lightens the strength a bit. The only downside is how expensive their coffee is so I don't visit often. This location also had no seating which was interesting and definitely caters to the grab and go type of people. But another great VTM! read more

Was in the harbor area doing some work the whole week. so the whole week we decided to come here, for coffee. Let me tell you this coffee is really delicious. I was really hooked on it. Their guacamole toast with maple bacon I believe was also to die for. FYI coffee will get you really hyper no joke. read more

Blk Dot Coffee - Vtm Iced Cold Brew Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Love Black Dot! Always have a great experience when I come to this location. Kyla and the whole team are wonderful and very kind.

Cute place tucked into the back of "The Marketplace" next to Trader Joes, Rubies and BevMo. It is unassuming and subtle. If you are not looking for it, you just might miss it. Very modern and clean. The staff was very friendly and greeted me warmly. Got in there at 8am and was one of the only people there. I asked about the Vietnamese coffee process because I have been lied to before where something on the menu was described as "vietnamese coffee" and was really just extra espresso and condensed milk. The barista went into detail about how proud they are of their process, that it is traditional, slow drip and takes between 24-36 hours to complete and is their way her mother still does it when she visits her. One look at the menu and I could see that VTM coffee was featured at the top of the hot and cold menus, so I could tell it was their specialty. No way was I going to order anything else. Plus, Vietnamese coffee is one of my favorite coffee drinks on the menu at any place anyways.  I ordered a large for $6.15, which I have to say is pretty standard pricing for Viet Coffee and it came out huge, so I was not disappointed. At places like Lee's Sandwiches, it can come out with basically all ice and a little liquid. Not here. It was legit a ton of coffee and cubed ice rather than crushed ice (another Lee's Sandwiches trick) so it made room for more liquid. The taste was smokey, full-bodied and delicious. I don't like to cheat on my other #1 love for Viet Coffee, Knead Donuts on 7th/Redondo, but goddamn! This is some next level sh**. Wow! completely floored by the quality of the coffee. Not over sweetened with the condensed milk and like I said, Viet Coffee is already one of the more expensive things on the menu even when it sucks, so $6.15 I will gladly pay for something this high quality and with such a complex taste experience. I also got a chocolate croissant, which they promptly asked if they could heat up for me. I was out the door for $11 and felt like a king. I would highly recommend this place. read more

I typically love blkdot coffee, but this location is a hit or miss when it comes to service. I went in got a coffee yesterday before work and two women working there were acting as if I was invisible. Another customer came in right after me and she noticed as well until I said "hello", the two women working seemed infatuated about a magazine that were reading and was given attitude when she stared to take my order. I'm going in to start my day off right with good coffee girl, no need to get a side of tude. Anyway, coffee is good, ambiance and customer service is bland. Will I come back? Yes cause I'm a coffee addict and it's on my way to work. read more

Blk Dot Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

Drinks are fine if a bit sweet, toasts are very salty, prices are personally too high to justify. This was my first visit to a BLKdot coffee location and i was excited to see a Viet cafe open up in LB where you'd mainly find Western coffeeshops. I like that that have both a good variety of food and drinks, and both coffees and teas. Their signature viet coffee is strong, sweet, and creamier than other types. It's a good introduction to vietnamese-style coffee that hits the spot and gets you wired after a few sips. Personally I prefer less sweet, but unfortunately they can't really adjust sweetness on that cuz I guess it's premixed. I also got a peach green tea with lychee which was refreshing-- pretty standard. Foodwise, we were recommended the hot honey avocado toast, which is apparently unique to this location. It had avocado, bacon, hot honey, and chili flakes. The spicy honey is different but it works, and I liked that the bread was thick and crisp to the bite. Unfortunately they seasoned the bread with so much flaky salt it almost hurt to keep eating. Please go lighter on the salt! Also I felt the avocado was placed a bit sloppy on the toast, that it easily slipped off as you eat. I would echo other reviews that mention the menu prices are surprisingly high. Our slice of avocado toast was something like $12 which I just don't find worth it. I'm sure they have their reasons to price this way but it just isn't sustainable for me to visit often. read more
