I ordered a Lavender Iced Coffee every single morning during my stay and have no regrets. The prices are a bit higher than your typical coffee shop, but the coffee is worth it. Breakfast items are also on the pricey side but convenient. I especially liked the breakfast burrito and the matcha chia seed cup. It was great to have a location at the Westin with reliable service and consistently good coffee. read more

I was really disappointed with my experience at Bluestone Cafe inside the Westin. I ordered the Eggs & Greens Croissant and, after eating a good portion of it, discovered a dead bug in my food. It completely ruined the meal and raised serious concerns about the cafe's hygiene and food preparation practices. The one positive was that my vanilla latte was excellent. It was honestly the best part of my visit. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to make up for what happened with the food. I hope the cafe takes this seriously and improves its cleanliness and quality control so it doesn't happen to anyone else. Sadly, I won't be returning. read more

Bluestone Lane - Bug in croissant - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

I love Bluestone Lane and I was so glad they have one inside the Westin in DTLB, near my work. However, I'm very conflicted with this place. The service and quality are not always consistent and it really depends on who makes the drinks. I don't see the same staff all the time and I really one the two young ladies with cool hair to make my drinks.. When they take my orders and make my drinks, they usually come out fast and taste delicious. I love their simple breakfast menu and one thing I'm a bit disappointed about this location is probably because they are inside a hotel, so they don't have the full menu and new drinks like their other location in old town Orange. But I guess I don't mind walking here to get a latte or flat white or an iced americano! read more

Honestly, really impressed with this hotel lobby coffee shop! The food and drinks were both equally delicious. Everything was fresh and high quality for such quick service. I enjoyed an avocado toast that was a nice hearty portion for breakfast! Loved the thick piece of multigrain with the hefty amounts of avocado. I also got a green smoothie both days, which really helped start the day on a healthy note! read more

Located at the Westin, it was convenient coffee. That's really about it. My iced latte with oat milk wasn't mind blowing in any way. Service was meh. It never leaves the best impression when I was making more of an effort to be personable than they were. My feedback to them would be to try harder, care more. Maybe have some coffee. read more

It's inside the Westin. $4.41 for a 12 oz. cup of coffee. Staff were friendly, and the lobby is pretty and clean, with views of Ocean Blvd. The coffee itself was good, just a little expensive! read more

The coffee shop is located within the Westin hotel. So you know it's roomy and spacious. Good vibes all around. Parking can be tough if you're not residing in the hotel but overall, the staff was friendly and the matcha hit the spot. If you like creamy matcha, definitely recommend! Very frothy! read more

I really like their espresso. For a larger chain their beans have a unique flavor. Not your typical Starbucks all taste the same dark roast type, a tad lighter, good flavor. The gals working at this location are always nice and quick. The only downside are the hours for this location. I wished they were open longer. read more

Bluestone Lane is a chain of Australian inspired coffee shops, with 55+ locations in the US. The founder is from Melbourne, and opened the first location in NYC in 2013. Their coffee is still roasted in Brooklyn. They utilize high quality ingredients, and are equipped with top tier Italian machinery, so you're guaranteed a great drink. This location is inside the Westin in downtown Long Beach. You do not need to be staying at the hotel to come here; it's downstairs in the lobby. There is a massive amount of seating, all drenched in sunlight. For downtown Long Beach, it's a nice ambience. It's an Australian place, so I felt obligated to get an Australian espresso classic: The Flat White. If you are unfamiliar, this is an espresso drink with half the amount of milk as a latte (and no foam), allowing for a stronger espresso flavor. I got it with oat milk, and it was exceptional. The barista was genuinely friendly, and knew how to make a perfect drink. Skip the Avocado Toast. It was ~$13 for a piece of barely toasted bread that tasted like cardboard. It was topped with a decent amount of avocado, plus micro greens and chili flakes, but come on: you can easily make this at home. read more

Interesting location inside the Westin off Ocean. Rode my bike to check it out. Very open, airy and clean space being in the hotel's lobby. Huge windows over looking lush gardens and courtyard. They have what seemed to be a nice selection of drinks on the menu and some pastries in the glass case as well. I was surprised to see they serve breakfast and thought to try their bacon, egg and cheese croissant. Asked what flavored lattes they have and was disappointed. Maybe they are short on supplies today, because they said they only had vanilla and mocha. I opted for the vanilla and it wasn't as hot as it could be. A click above warm, but not hot. The sandwich was good, but very hard to eat as it just fell apart so easily, but I had a fork and knife so I made due cutting it half and eating the scrambled egg that fell out. I think it would have been better if the scrambled egg wasn't so crumbly. The croissant wasn't flaky, rather soft. Overall, the sandwich was kind of dense and mushy. read more

Quick, friendly service and delicious coffee and breakfast sandwich for around $20. It's inside the beautiful, sunny lobby of the Westin, not at all crowded at 8am. I had a 12oz flat white with almond milk and their Breakfast croissant (with fluffy eggs, cheddar cheese, arugula and a bit of vegemite mayo. I was curious as I have never tasted vegemite (but always heard horrible things about it). Let me tell you this was delicious! Very filling too. I ate half before I remembered to give this place a stellar review. Other breakfast options all sounded delicious and reasonably priced as well. Highly recommend, even for non-guests of the Westin (like me), they still made me feel super welcome! read more

Why 5 stars? Because the nitro was great. --- --- --- My experience here was very brief. I was staying at the Renaissance and opted to walk over here, rather than patronize Starbucks from my hotel. I ordered my go-to nitro and thought it was excellent. It was weird that they put ice in it, but it didn't really bother me. The flavor of the beans was ideal, so I was a happy and caffeinated camper. I believe I visited a Bluestone elsewhere and had a good experience there, so I was very happy to see a non-Starbucks only a few minutes away. read more

I can't believe it took me three months to find this gem as an avid coffee drinker. What a treat! My husband and I came here on a whim because we are in the middle of a serious diet (i.e., hangry AF) and needed a little pick-me-up. We were greeted by the most pleasant baristas, who showered our little doggies with verbal affection upon arrival. They also made our drinks super quick. Our drinks were both delicious. I ordered a large latte with almond milk ($7) while my husband ordered a large cappuccino with almond milk ($7). I think it's odd that they serve 'large' cappuccinos at all tbh. I am deducting a star because while they were good, they were not THAT good. $15 is too expensive for standard coffee beverages. read more

Delicious Australian (Melbourne) inspired coffee. Go do some research on your Flat Whites and Long Blacks if you don't know. :) The coffee is freshly made and delicious. Loved their avocado toast as well. I downloaded their app and they gave me $5 for my first free drink. I am a fan! The location is perfect as I work in the building next door. Btw the location is in the Westin Hotel lobby. Thanks to Sophia and Juan, the baristas who helped us out with our coffees! Definitely a fan. read more

WOW WOW WOW. Phenomenal breakfast. Excellent coffee. Very kind and patient staff. We walked over from Hotel Maya for breakfast, not realizing this place is inside the Westin. No issue, just didn't know. The atmosphere in the Westin is very welcoming. I was torn between a few options and the barista explained in more detail a couple of dishes. I got the peanut butter and berries toast. HOLY MOLY. Incredible. Peanut butter, fresh strawberries and raspberries, mint that absolutely makes the flavors POP, and drizzled with honey and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Also got a draught oat flat white that is delicious. Partner got the bacon croissant breakfast sandwich and it was also just out of this world good. We eat excellent food all over the place and everything we got here was top tier breakfast food! read more

the ambience/outdoor courtyard seating was LOVELY. But it was better than the food and service LOL. Ordered the fried chicken sandwich, burger, and chili scramble. My sister enjoyed her burger, my dad enjoyed his sandwich, and I enjoyed the egg scramble on multigrain. I wouldn't say anything was outstandingly superb or unique. The chili scramble was too spicy for my dad (he is getting older and cannot handle a lot of spice anymore) but a fine level for me, although the chili oil/sauce tasted like instant ramen seasoning (it's a yummy taste but I'm not trying to taste instant ramen in a $16 dish). Our main server was sweet and attentive, but another server seemed very flustered and frustrated the whole time. Of course we gave her the benefit of the doubt but it made for simple requests like asking for a check uncomfortable. read more

I'm always intrigued by a new coffee place, especially if it's within walking distance from work. This place is tucked inside the Westin, a counter set against the west entrance of the hotel. They have a simple menu of foods (mainly topped toasts), and a bakery case with a variety of croissants (Nutella, Plain, Everything, one other savory flavor), Kouign Amann, vegan donuts, and chocolate chip cookies. Their bakery case is limited, so don't expect a replenishment. With this being in a hotel with foot traffic and out of towners there for conferences, expect sell outs of food. They were out of nutella croissants when I was there this morning. On the recommendation of the friendly staff, I got the prosciutto toast because I love prosciutto. With that small drizzle of honey, it didn't disappoint. It's a small but filling portion with balanced flavors. Great recommendation. The iced latte I got was also pretty smooth. If I was finally going to give vegemite toast or a Flat White a try I'd probably give it a go here, over Starbucks. THINGS OF NOTE: CASHLESS payments only! Luckily I had my phone with me so I could use apple pay. Prices are on the higher side, since lest you forget, you're purchasing food and drink in a hotel, but ultimately it's a nice change from my typical desk salad or jimmy johns sandwich. Thumbs up. 5 stars. read more

Found this spot walking distance from my hotel. Plenty of seating throughout the entire hotel lobby. I got a mocha, not my usual go-to, but it sounded good. They were on the busier side for the two baristas working, but they were flying through drinks & remained positive! I also got a croissant sandwich that was soooooooo good. Absolutely simple, but sooooo good. It's nice having an actual coffee shop downstairs from your room, it made me want to stay here instead of the hotel I was at for next year. read more

Solid five stars for vibez, fast & friendly service, and a delicious oat milk latte to start the day. Tucked away in the left side of the lobby at the beautiful Westin hotel in Long Beach, I'm glad we were able to stop by for some good coffee. The latte was $5 and an extra $1 charge for the oat milk substitute, which I thought was pretty steep. Other than that, loved all the natural lighting that filled the hotel lobby, the decor, and the yummy coffee! read more

We stopped by bluestone lane for a light breakfast and this definitely satisfied, the matcha was good, and toast was amazing, especially the gluten free one, which is difficult to find. The people working were really kind and made our food fast. The PB and berries toast was amazing!! Bluestone lane is located inside the lobby of the Westin Hotel, Definitely worth a stop. Although it was kinda of sad how they charged 2 extra dollars for the gluten free bread :( read more

Pretty positive my gluten free toast request was ignored. 1) because I saw the dude start to make it, the person taking my order advised him of the allergy and then he kept making the order. So no change was made from the toast he has already put out- which is regular toast since gf has to be requested. 2) because I'm covered in psoriasis patches that I get from consuming gluten- which I don't eat anymore and this is my only possible contamination. Booooo. don't offer it if you don't want to honor it:( The matcha was fire tho so I still gave some stars. read more

I tried the Avocado and Romesco Toast, and it was amazing! The roasted red-pepper romesco adds a slightly sweet taste, but it's not overwhelmingly sweet at all. The soft herbs & feta was delicious with the toast as well. The whole grain bread has sesame, which adds a nice toasty taste. The server was really nice! The place is inside the Westin, which is beautiful! I'd go back here again for breakfast! We also had some cocktails next door after! read more

Waited 10 minutes in line just for them to tell me their credit card system was down and they only take cash.

Horrible service. Yes, I understand you, Natalie had a lot of orders, but take our order, no one else was behind us. And we can sit and wait. No, you would rather us sit there and watch the 3 of you slowly work to get orders out before we can just buy a yogurt. Ridiculous. We waited 20 minutes to buy a yogurt. read more

Went looking for a long black that was featured on an Australian youtube. Since Bluestone says it is inspired by the Australian coffee scene, why not? Beautiful setting to have coffee in. Very relaxed hotel lobby. Service was OK. Definitely not friendly or welcoming. Hated the coffee. It tasted sour which means one of the essential ingredients, time, proportions or grind was off. And no crema. No nonpaper cup option. Kind of shocking in such a nice place. The Westin would have been better off with a Starbucks concession. read more

Decent coffee if you're looking for a strong roast. The highlight for me here was the avocado toast with the works which included prosciutto and feta. This toast was surprisingly more decorated than I was expected. For the price, it felt very reasonable. I was a little disappointed in the cold brew tea that I ordered which ended up not being cold brewed, it still got the job done, but was disappointing considering I was told after ordering. Expect a wait here as there may only be 1 or 2 workers here at a time it seems. For a hotel coffee shop, this place is better than most I've seen. read more

MVP award goes to the AM barista who got through 7-10 pushy flight attendants and crew yesterday. One of my biggest pet peeves is when folks in service industries do not respect each other. The barista took a bunch of flack with a smile and grace, remaking some of the orders. My order got lost in the shuffle but both folks behind the bar were apologetic. They have a decent looking omnivore menu with various breakfast toasts with things like prosciutto and avocado. I didn't want anything to eat at the time but I did notice there is a vegan cereal option with oat milk automatically on the menu which is awesome. The cafe uses califas almond milk which works for me. They also have their own pressed juices. I ended up with an almond milk latte and a green juice. Both were the pick me up I needed before a long drive home. There are small tables on the side near the pick up window or you can potentially sit in the breakfast/ bar area of the hotel. Definitely would order again if I stayed at the hotel. read more

Tucked away in the Westin hotel we have Bluestone Lane Coffee. A coffee shop I'd never seen before but apparently have been there for a few months now. Better signage should help drive more attention to them. Because I love coffee and I'm always on the hunt for a new coffee shop, I had to try them and I am not disappointed! I got served a great tasting latte using beans from New Zealand and Colombia. Silky smooth! I can't say it's better than Rose Park or Lord Windsor but it's definitely a contender. I'll be back. read more

Coffee is fair but the service is poor. They don't have good customer service, I will not come again.

A friend who stayed at the Westin turned me into this new shop last week. I went in on Sunday to try it out as a treat to myself and it turned out to be exactly that, a treat. The staff is suuuuuuper friendly, the coffee is really great (giving all of the other downtown shops a run for their money), and the prices were very reasonable, especially being in the lobby of a Westin. I liked it so much that the following morning I took my friend from out of town here cause she tryuly loves coffee. We walked past 3 coffee shops I would have taken her to prior, but instead we landed here. read more

Welcome to Long Beach!!! I ordered a salmon toast and oat milk cappuccino and wow!!! Sooo amazing, not to mention the staff was SO sweet and helpful! It was their second week being open and the workers were being extra caring and efficient. The only thing I didn't like was that there isn't anywhere to sit... they also need signs because it's REALLY hard to see from outside. Aside from that I had a wonderful experience! Will be back read more

I had the banana toast and a flat white, and my boyfriend had a golden latte and the avocado toast with the lot and added a poached egg. It was definitely expensive, but we really enjoyed the food and it was quite satisfying. While the drinks were good, they tasted almost exactly the same? Making me think that either the golden latte has barely any spices added to it, or the barista accidentally made a regular latte instead. While the counter seating & plastic utensils weren't very comfortable (these types of toasts need real silverware), the general ambiance in the hotel lobby was very nice and we sat at the couches to the side of the cafe afterwards and it was very comfortable a nice way to spend the morning. I would go back, but I would have to be in the mood to splurge. read more
