Honeybee's Breakfast Sandwich
Vicky A.

I had their Breakfast sandwich and iced vanilla latte. It was my first time trying them and ordered take out to be delivered. The sandwich was good and the ingredients seemed fresh. There was some seasoning in the egg not sure what but tasted good. The vanilla latte was perfect, not too much vanilla or milk. Definitely recommend trying them out for yourself.

Each roll got smaller than the previous one. WTF ?!?!  Definitely not worth $13.95
Nor G.

I was literally the only customer there and 3 employees working, but no one came out so I used the digital kiosk. Still after ordering no one greeted me to ensure they got my order. I jjust stayed quiet at a seat in plain view of the kitchen. When I finally got my order they were missing an entire dish. Im the only customer and ordered 2 items. How do you possibly mess that up with 3 people back there. After making them aware it took them a rather long time to make my second item. It was the spring rolls pictured. They were a bit soggy and the sizes were completely different. Each one was smaller than the other. I wonder how bad this place is when there's actually several customers. Not worth the money for what you get either. I also paid $16.95 for a rice bowl a fraction of the size as waba or flame broiler, with less items. It was just a hand full of meat, scoop of rice, and a tiny container of pickled carrots. This place is a rip off

Milk Tea 24oz

I stumbled upon this quiet shop while driving through Long Beach and found that they offer a variety of teas and sandwiches. Their milk tea was decent. Next time I'd try a sandwich for a quick bite. Not a lot of seating inside but seems like a calm environment with very pleasant staff

Oolong Milk Tea with Boba
Sydney T.

Concerning, could be doing a lot better and I think it's possible I was here on an off day. Quite a bit of a wait time, and the milk tea is not worth it. Seems like most other customers were here for sandwiches/ burgers and coffee. There were two girls who seemed to be working the beverage station and one girl working the kitchen. It seemed like the person making food had to expedite/ call out orders at the same time, which was causing a huge delay in between orders coming out. The girls working beverage station and foh should have been helping with expediting more in my opinion. Just all around the team seemed to be confused and scrambling, orders coming out in a weird and different order than they were placed. You can see in the photo that my drink is mostly white, and it tastes like almost nothing? The only flavor is coming from the boba. This tastes like someone brewed the tea like it was a hot tea, cold iced teas have to be brewed darker so that they aren't watered down when cooled off. That's why a lot of places have larger batches of tea brewed overnight like a cold brew, so the flavor is more pungent and can be mixed into ice and milk without losing its flavor. This had no tea flavor and was extremely disappointing, I do not recommend it to any tea lovers. If the focus is on burgers and food, it feels misleading to have your branding be about honey boba. On top of all of this, as I was waiting for my order and watching the kitchen I kept seeing the girl who was making drinks touch her face and hair while working. I know it must have been an unconscious thing from being nervous, but it is super unsanitary to not be washing your hands in between all of that. Left me hoping the drink would wow me after all of that, but unfortunately that didn't happen.

Strawberry Smoothie
Kim R.

This review is solely on the smoothie I got. I decided to check this place out since I was next door waiting for my food from a Yelp event (see previous review). The backdrop is cute (see my photo) and the girl who waited on me was nice. I got the strawberry smoothie. It was just ok. To be honest, it was quite bland. No sweetness to it whatsoever. I think it was legit just strawberries and milk. I was expecting a Jamba Juice type smoothie... *shrugs* I'm a little curious on how the breakfast burrito is (I'm still trying to find my most favorite/"perfect" one) but I'm not sure that I'll go back.

Cool decor
Neal T.

Had an iced tea lemonade and a Tuna Melt Panini. The shepherd bread they put it on is delicious. I can't wait to go back and try the Banh Mi I didn't see that one till after I ordered. The neighborhood is a quiet nice spot with plenty of street parking right off 3rd and Redondo basically. They had my sandwich and drink ready quickly but I was the only one there at the time so not sure what rush hour looks like.

Italian sandwich
Paula O.

This is a nice little neighborhood place to pick up a sandwich. It has grown an appendage which is 3rd&Loma. Repainted, it has a new and bright exterior. Thankfully, we were able to get a Italian sandwich to round out the spring roll linner that was begun next door. Quite hungry. Were we to want something at this location again I think that I would try another sandwich here rather than 3rd&Loma fare. Bf pointed out that that ratio of bread to sandwich innards was perfect.

The service was nice. Seating was somewhat limited. I decided to go for their honeybee special milk tea. This drink came with so many toppings they did not hold back at all, super generous, I would highly recommend trying it. It's also on the sweeter side, like a lot lol, which is a plus for me but definitely keep that in mind. Their menu also includes the final price for everything meaning tax is already included. I also like the fact that their milk tea's specifically all come in a large size and their super reasonably priced too. They had so many options for both drinks and pastries so there should be something for everyone. Parking can be challenging at this location because it's sort of in the center of a neighborhood meaning you'll have to count on a spot being available on the curb.

Welcome!

5 STARS ALL THE WAY! Local, convenient, and delicious is what comes to mind when I think of HoneyBee's. I moved into the area almost a year ago now and I drove by this place everyday to and from work since I live about 3 blocks away. In all honesty I never stopped by because I'm always running late to where I should be or the times I thought about stopping it looked busy and again I am usually running too late to wait lol This time around I was off and had just finished a morning cycling class and decided, today is the day I try this place and I'm so happy I did. First off all Isabella was AMAZING! She was so welcoming and very helpful, her bubbly and beautiful personality is so contagious and made my visit outstanding. I knew I wanted an Açai bowl but they had a few options so she gave me her best recommendation and totally explained to me what they have to offer. Since my first visit I have been here a hand full of times now and every time I have stopped by the service is nothing but the best and the açaí bowls are always PERFECT! I love my açaí bowls made with extra peanut butter and no coconuts, they never have a problem with altering any order to your liking. Located in a residential neighborhood with only street parking, HoneyBees has indoor and outdoor seating and is a nice quiet place to sit and hangout or maybe get some work done. I'm so happy this cute place is located blocks away from my living situation so I can stop by anytime I please :) Hope you enjoy!

The flat and very unhappy looking "samdwich". A toddler could have done better.

I got a almost $8 jam and cheese croissant. Absolutely not with the money. I've definitely seen more impressive sandwiches for less at other places.

Honeybee's Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Asia B.

If you're looking for a delicious bite with quick service, this cafe is the spot. From sandwiches to boba, they have it all. Not to mention, their Vietnamese iced coffee is top tier! The cafe is located in a family, friendly neighborhood, and it has a great, quiet space for working or studying. The owner, Jackson, has a welcoming personality and contagious laughter and has created a welcoming space for customers.

My all time favorite thing is lavender. So when I see a lavender latte on a menu I'm 100% going to order and judge it critically. Let me just say.... This was great. Just the right amount of lavender. Sweet and creamy and amazingly put together. There are a lot Of food options that I'll be trying out soon. But I wanted to review it already because the place is in the middle of a residential area, nice people, nice place, and an amazing local spot. I recommend not just for the locals but for anyone in the area!

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.
