I stumbled across this hidden gem by surprise and instantly fell in love with its name. Finally checked it out and it is a great little nook to get a quick bite to eat with a nice coffee or boba tea. Nice spot for me to hide away in my day for a writing session on the laptop. Very chill and quiet environment. Love the atmosphere here and the honeybee vibes. read more

Well it does no good to have a prominent sign at ur front door stating all those entering MUST wear a mask if not only customer after customer entering and receiving service have no face coverings but in fact the staff aren't following state and county regulations by not wearing face masks either! Well, if u want to consider having the mask around ur neck as wearing it then A+ to the staff! For the second week in a row we ordered food from this local spot to support small businesses in our hood, and for the 2nd wk in a row, many customers and staff had no regard for the safety of others in wearing facial coverings while in the establishment. Today, in the short time it took to run in and grab my online order, I witnessed 5 customers enter with no masks and recieve service with no issues, but again it makes sense considering the 3 staff working had no facial coverings either. It is a shame that the well being of the community that keeps u in business is not more of a priority, but my family and I will no longer be apart of that community and risk using ur services any longer! Again, WHO exactly is ur COVID face covering for service sign meant for? read more

Friendly service with a side of one of the best roast beef dip sandwiches and iced chai tea latte I've had to date! Who knew it would be at a little corner place that's like a 7-11ish sandwich shop with craft beers and wine! A small local unpretentious business is what LB needs more of! read more

Honeybee's - Roast beef dip sandwich and iced chai tea latte...such a pleasant surprise!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Long Beach, California

My favorite is the Tuna Melt. I just love it. So delicious and you can tell it's made with love. I had a few different sandwiches from here including the grilled lobster, chicken pesto, grilled chicken and pastrami. All are equally great. I just have a thing for tuna melts. And I always always wash it down with their refreshing peachee lychee. The service here is always as great as the food. So. It's a win win. read more

Only been here once, and I enjoyed my visit. Ordered a chicken panini with sweet chili sauce and it was pretty good. Just enough chicken but it could've had more. I'm fat, so I may be biased. And had a matcha latte which I feel was pretty spot on for flavoring. It wasn't too sweet and nothing was overpowering. Service is alright, the girl who took my order and everything while I was there was quite nice. Ample parking on the street. read more

Delicious grilled cheese with fresh chicken. Yummy blueberry smoothie with almond milk. Reasonable price.

Out of the 4 times I've been here, it has been absolutely excellent 3 of them. The fourth time there was a new employee that wasn't as familiar with the sandwich ingredients or amounts, so it was just a good sandwich instead of freaking delicious. Their bread, too!! Super-relaxed atmosphere, so don't go in all hangry, or you may not enjoy it so much. They sell good beer, too... you just can't drink it on premises. Oh - and you can finally use the bathroom. This was a serious bummer in the past. read more

I generally like this place's sandwiches and the craft beer selection is good! I went here to get a bagel and lox recently and asked for an everything bagel - instead I got an untoasted plain bagel? Seems really weird to me. Who eats untoasted bagels? Bleh. Also - their tomato soup is nooooot good. read more

What a wonderful coffee gem. I got the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and it was amazing. This coffee is pretty addicting with the rich roast flavor and the heart pumping caffeine. Along with that, I tried the Italian Sandwich which is a great combination with my coffee. Their sandwich is to die for. My bread was toasted which makes the outside crunchy and the inside soft (favorite) and the sandwich itself has all the right amount of ingredients that makes it a great sandwich. read more

Terrible service. I ordered a sandwich with swiss cheese and got cheddar cheese. Not that big of a deal but I pointed it out to woman who took my order and she insisted 2x that I ordered cheddar. Nope, I don't order yellow cheese EVER! Sandwich was forgettable. Tables and floor were dirty. There were 3 people behind the counter and one other customer besides me in the place. It was 11:30 am. read more

Our sandwiches were just made by a worker who didn't wear a face mask or a hair net and both employees let a woman wait inside without her having a face mask covering either. There is a sign inside that says customers must wear face masks, so why are you not following the rules that you should be enforcing. You should be ashamed. read more

My daughter recommended this place as when she came for her first time she liked the food so I went ahead and gave it try for the very first time we are a party of 4 my daughter and I got our food however we stayed waiting for the other two meals 30 minutes later we ask the status of our meal she said give me a minute I can hear them talking about they forgot about the other two sandwiches Paula the manager comes out apologizing for the delay as she said it just took a little longer as I stand there telling her we can hear you guys conversation on how you guys forgot she keeps on going back and forward with me offering a refund but being that I'm support all businesses I'm telling her I'm not looking for a refund I'm just looking for them to recognize the fact that they messed up but no I have the manager going back and forward with like Wth I should of gotten my money back I would not recommend this place to any one I regret even tipping them for nothing I would give this place less than 1 star save your money and go somewhere else mind you I spend over $65 in this place feeling regretful super super bad experience and if anything is just actual local neighbors that come here I regret coming here soooooooo much the worst spending of done I actually feel I lost my money on the street Paula needs to be more professional and not come back to customers like if it's personal I just walked away so things didn't escalate bad business safe your self the disappointment trust me read more

Great location in Long Beach. Lots of parking on the street. I like the atmosphere inside. Food is okay. Beverages are better. Staff are nice and friendly. read more

The drinks that I've had, all the milk teas and coffee are delicious. My only two complaints that I have are that they do not have other bread besides white bread (most unhealthy option) and that the customer service is not very good. The girl that has been here in the evenings the last few times is not very personable. Hopefully they add other options soon, I know it's relatively new. read more

This is a wonderful place. The sandwiches are always fantastic. They sell craft beers and lottery tickets. A great family owned establishment. The staff is always friendly, and i love going to honeybee's. read more

The sandwiches were ok. But took 40 min to get. Why did they take so long to make ? We an Italian sub and veggie sub. We did not order drinks. Just the two sandwiches. I wish their service speed was faster. Wouldn't come if I were in a rush for food read more

The staff is so warm and welcoming.. and their choice of items will satisfy all tastebuds! Teas are perfectly sweetened and their sandwiches are sooo tasty!! A must try in Long Beach read more

Came by for a quick sandwich since I was in the area. I don't know if this was typical but street parking was easy and I was the only one waiting for my sandwich. The service was great and the sandwich was pretty good. I will definitely come back for more. Unfortunately I was on the clock, but there seems to be a decent selection of beer too. If I could go home, I would've picked up a bottle to take home with me. read more

The lobster grilled cheese was really delicious there was so much flavor in each and every bite. The milk tea with boba was so refreshing also. It was a great combination together. I also won $25 off the $20 scratcher. So to sum up my visit to honeybee's IT WAS THE BEST DAY EVER. read more

New, local spot to pick up a good sandwich and a craft beer to-go. They have a great selection of craft beers, some I've never tired. Prices are good, even cheaper than the big name stores. As for food, I ordered their turkey sandwich. It comes with lettuce, tomato and onions. I added jalapeño for a nice kick. The bread they use is a french baguette. Nice and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The decor is modern, clean and simple. This place certainly have that local neighborhood feel to it. Employees are nice and helpful with recommendations. I also ordered their Honeybee's ice coffee to go. It was strong but not bitter strong. Sweetness level was perfect. Great to see something new in the area. I will be coming back for more! read more

Great selection of beverages ranging from an amazing Vietnamese coffee to flavored fruit teas with actual fruit bits added. I have also noticed a shaved ice machine which I can't wait to enjoy. read more

This is a cute new place owned by a husband/wife. Nice atmosphere and the owners are super friendly. The iced coffee is average (could find better cold brew). The boba selection is good and I enjoyed the Thai Tea flavor! I plan to come again to try their sandwich/soup selection. It's worth a visit! read more

Disappointing and inconsistent. Gave it 4 tries. Quality and prices changed each time. Yes the prices were different with no apparent reason. Got the most watered down coffee I have ever tasted today, not coming back. read more

I only write reviews for places that have exceeded my expectations. With that being said, I stumbled across Honeybees a few weeks ago by accident. Their Turkey sandwiches are worth the commute to this area of Long Beach! Good customer service, truly a gem of this neighborhood!! read more

I usually get the pastrami sand which when I come here with a cup of honeybees iced coffee.. but today I wanted to try it blended since it was hot out... BOY OH BOY was I glad to make that decision. Who drizzles condensed milk??? Whooo?? honeybees does!! My now go to drink! read more

We live this local spot. You can't really go wrong with anything you order, everything is great! All the workers I have encountered here are super kind and helpful. They are Covid compliant and the workers actually wear their masks correctly. read more

Heyyyyyyy, Gossip Ghost here! I went to Honeybees on Saturday, May 6 and BEElieve me when I tell you, it wasn't the most enjoyable experience. So apparently May 6 was their one year anniversary. Congratulations! The had a DJ on the patio, a singer songwriter inside the place and a butt load of people, lots of kids, running around, terrorizing the place. I felt bad for the staff. They didn't ask for this. So we get to the counter, me and the Mrs. that is, and it was impossible to order because it was sooooo loud, and the girl taking our order was clearly distracted. Anywho, we placed our order: a French Dip and Tomato Soup for me, an Italian for me lady. We wanted pastries, but most of the case was empty. Then we took our seat. While waiting, we tried our hands at some scratchers. This did not go well, but there was a great selection of scratchers, so one star for that. Our food was done quick, almost too quick. Not really a good sign. I got one small paper bag that had two good sized sandwiches, a cup of soup and a cup of au jus. The au jus was on its side and the soup was at an odd angle. Then the bag started leaking EVERYWHERE. I let them know and to their credit, the cleaned everything up with the quickness. Gave me two bags and it was al good. Not a drop of anything wasn't present. Props for the clean up, but minus points for not thinking that clearly in the first place. That could have been easily prevented. I scored a free shaved ice sample on the way out, milk flavored with strawberries and graham crackers, pretty decent. The major issue we had was with the food. The meat taste old. Lucky we didn't get sick, but you could tell the ingredients were not fresh. Both sandwiches had that issue. The wife asked for no tomatoes and hot tomatoes...this was no bueno. Both sandwiches lacked flavor and were quite bland. The tomato soup was ehhh, but the au jus was good. I forgot to mention. We both got drinks, iced caramel mocha for me and a Strawberry Bliss For her. Just like their inclusion in this review, both drinks were forgettable. I can give everything a pass except for the old meat. You gotta have fresh ingredients, you don't want people to get sick. Lucky for us, there is a sandwich place about four blocks down the road called Jack's on Broadway. It's amazing...good there...you can thank me later. read more

Vietnamese coffee was good Green Thai tea is a one star: taste watered down no flavor comparing to Long Beach Thai read more

They have probably the best cold turkey sandwich you can get. The beer selection is always diverse. The coffee is good. Go check it out yourself. They just need to work on knocking down that wall to their back patio and getting an alcohol license to drink on the property. You can only buy alcohol but you can't consume it there. read more

They were friendly but the boba sucks. It was way too sweet and we ended up just throwing our drinks away. Then we felt sick and had stomach issues for the rest of the night. Definitely go to honeysuckle instead. read more

Great little corner store for interesting craft beer, wine and lottery tix. The food though leaves much to be desired...as a vegetarian there are very few options. (No veggie patties as a meat substitute for example) Twice I have gone in for breakfast and twice I came home to find out my bagel had not been toasted as requested. Also I had to ask what bagel options were available but when I then asked for an everything bagel I was told my lox was almost done. Mind you this was one of the non-toasted bagels so changing for customer service would have been quite easy. I also caught a bit of attitude in the form of body language/facial expression by the girl who made the sandwich. Not a good way to treat a customer. I once tried this place for lunch and ordered a veggie sandwich and was unfortunately disappointed with the contents when I got home. Lettuce, tomatoes a ton of mustard and not much else. Maybe I should eat there so I know what I'm getting before leaving? I am writing this review so they can improve the food and service. I really want this place to succeed. I love having this place in the neighborhood. If they fixed these things and added a few more convenient store items I would improve my rating. Shop small! read more

I came with my girlfriend after biking. we ordered a turkey raspberries sandwich with tomato basil and a pina picante. My girlfriend ordered a turkey sandwich and a strawberry slushy.

I'm stoked that Honeybees has opened up in my neighborhood! The service is fast and friendly and so far all of the drinks I've tried have been delicious. My personal favorite is the Vietnamese coffee! I'm hooked! I've also tried their turkey sandwich and some of the breakfast items... Delicious! Every time I stop by they've added something new to the menu or decor. I'm so excited to see what they do next. read more

I found this place on yelp yesterday and decided to try it out. I was very disappointed. I waited for 40 min for an original milk tea with boba. There were maybe about 3 other customers and 5 people behind the counter. I'm not sure if cashier was new but it seemed as if she had no idea what she was doing and was super slow and so were all the other employees making the drinks. I complained that I waited for over half an hour for my drink and they gave me $2 back. My milk tea tasted nothing like milk tea. It tasted like watered down, Lipton black tea with sugar. Never going back there again! read more
