Matcha latte
Grace N.

Been wanting to stop by Qargo in DTLB for a while since my drive to work few years ago I saw the coming soon sign. But, it took a long time and since it's a really far trek from the WTC to here, and I was usually too lazy to stop by on the way to work by car in the morning, long story short, finally last week was when my colleagues and I stopped by. I have been back again so in total twice. I have been to Qargo in Costa Mesa so I know what to expect. They serve good (Lavazza) coffee and their matcha is pretty good. Their sizing here is great. Great because they literally have jumbo sizes. Matcha is decent here. Hard to get good matcha in the walking distance in DT... so this and rose park I think are my go-to for good quality matcha. Their pastries are good too, especially when warmed. Lots of seatings inside, not sure about parking since we did not come by car.. But it's DT so, you know what to expect.

Matcha not mixed well before serving

It is a nice modern style coffee shop on a very busy corner in Long Beach. Great music playing and staff that is friendly and nice when you enter it is a nice open concept and great respect to art and architecture. The food is very nice and fresh. The espresso and specialty drinks are very refreshing matcha is normally not sweetened but it can be just make sure you get the correct amount for preference. It could have been mixed a bit better before serving to avoid lumps . The toasted foods were very good in flavor and fulfilling as well. Overall nice place with friendly staff will be coming back 4.5/5

Good coffee! Came here while heading to Eggbred for food. I parked along ocean blvd, street parking. Parking might be difficult to find. I ordered the iced mocha ($6.25) and coffee eclair ($5.45). I thought it was pretty good, nice local coffee shop. They have lots of pastries but they're a bit pricey. Interior has nice modern wooden look. The couch was hard and doesn't have much cushion. I would like to see a trash can by the door along Ocean Blvd. I had to walk to the other side of the coffee shop to throw my straw wrapper. Would definitely come back.

I will start this review by making the obvious comparison: this place feels like a fancy Italian Starbucks. When I say fancy, think more comfortable living room, of a middle-class person, please do not think fancy like Pavarotti's living room which I assume has a baby grand and couches made with Italian leather, the same kind use for a Lambo. This place just gives a crumb of vibes of the Amalfi coast gone business casual, which is enough because other chain coffee houses do not help one travel to the boot shape country of Europe. I entered to grab a coffee at a nearby business, where I was getting a breakfast sandwich, the joint did not have coffee that was special, just black to be enhanced with Splenda and half-half, and I get that enough on normal weekdays. I was helped by Isabella, a sweet person, who was kind enough to invite me back again, after she learned that it was my first time. This gesture seems small but in reality it is hospitality in a phrase, which reminds me of a Japanese proverb: A kind word can warm three winter months. I got a regular latte, and Isabella listed the various syrups available. She went down the line deep, I think I remember that are common like vanilla and caramel and others that seemed more original to a coffee chain, like pistachio, and others felt tropical like mango. The coffee distinguished itself enough to be remembered as delicious but not well enough for me to know that I had gulped pistachio instead of slurped it, as when I have pistachio ice cream, or munched as I have when I have pistachio nuts, straight out of the shell. But still it was grand coffee, again better than one can get at other similar coffee houses, but, truth be told, I have had coffee from other chains that was steadfast in its roasted glory, which I will not name out of respect for this exxperience, but, the extra x in the word experience is a hint. :-) What was wonderful about this house, again, was the elevated comfort that this place offered. The wood wave wall, which I and other Yelpers have captured, felt more artistic than a design choice. I do not want to over hype this place, but I feel like I have seen something similar- to these wood waves- at an LA museum, perhaps the Broad, or the Moca. And atop these waves was the phrase- empowering the creator. I never wanted to write a screenplay or the next summer beach book but the message made me feel like this place can help me do just that--- someone give me a brush and a color palette I think I want to paint sunflowers on a vase! The couches seemed plump and they made me want to be a cat--- a feline with the famed ability to stretch and rest, without worry or woe in its mice-filled head. The selections of baked goods, seemed sophisticated. For example, they offered French Macarons, Dulce de Leche Cheesecake, Tiramsu, Chocolate Ganache Cake and other items that all seemed special, and like a treat that elevates a typical day to one that I can claim to be special. I can imagine, that when I was younger, less informed, more broke, more open to wonder, I would have plastered my face into the display and spend minutes trying two decide the two pastries that will allow myself to feel Parisian and decadent. This place had a lot of small touches that were stylistic choices to make this place a stroll for the eyes, which is great because it gives one something to do as they wait for their food. I completely forgotten that Reese Whitherspoon had a book club, but this place spotlighted one of her recent pics--- I accidentally deleted the book, but the place reminded me that not only Oprah or Rory had books to recommend to the caffeinated masses. I also liked the gray-green pumpkin. Another touch to remind us all that this place was fresh in its take on what a coffee house should be, and that take was fancy can be accessible to the average creator! of art, in its many forms.

Julia caught my custom iced latte order was basically a white mocha & rang it up that way to save me money! Perfect drink & ocean view!

Julia (the manager) caught that my custom iced latte order was basically a white mocha & rang it up that way since it costs less! Perfect drink, ocean view across the street, great service. My new regular spot!

A palatial coffee haven. Ceilings within a sniff of the clouds themselves. Palatable decor aesthetic devoid of painful puns, godawful shiplap, or calculated kitsch. There are so many places to sit here. I almost felt rude only having the one set of glutes to park. Seating problems haunt coffee shops, but not Qargo. They understand chairs here. The staff is absolutely on their coffee game. Julia made a point to ask me what type of milk I wanted in my mocha for health reasons, etc. She conducted herself like a legitimate bean roasting queen. I do not know what that last sentence means, but she makes a point to do her job well. I think that is why so many busy professionals drop by this venue to have coffee & read email. Oh yes, the mocha tasted like milk & coffee & chocolate mixed together.

Never actually got the $7.40 drink i ordered. Firstly, no vegan brekky options? NONE? no oatmeal? no fruit bowl? its 2025 and it's the easiest thing in the world to provide at last one vegan-friendly option when you have 12 regular options, not counting the pastries. they also upcharged me for oatmilk without disclosing the upcharge verbally or on their menu. I only realized it because I asked for a receipt after noticing the total was higher than expected. also, let it be known that i ordered at 9:48, it's currently 10:03 and i don't have my drink yet. I unfortunately need to head out to see my partner cross the marathon finish line, it shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to make ya girl a smoothie. literally could not have been a worse experience :(

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and--most importantly--excellent coffee. Their cold brew is on another level and easily outshines other coffee shops. Highly recommend.

One of my fave LBC coffee shops. Great location, friendly service literally always every time. they recently made me the perfect chai latte I've never had a better one and I've been drinking them for 20 years, it was the perfect amount of spice & sweet.

Unfortunately, our experience with the staff really left a sour taste in our mouths. The server helping us seemed bothered when we asked if we could sample something before purchasing and kept making comments about us asking to try the products. "If I give everyone a sample then what? No business" ... LOOL WHAT? My fiance was genuinely trying to pick something out and wanted to sample a flavor before deciding, but the staff member completely ignored him and made us feel unwelcome. We had every intention of purchasing a good amount to take home, but because of the attitude and lack of hospitality, we ended up only getting a couple of pieces and leaving. (I regret spending any money here) The products and ambiance were lovely, but customer service really matters, especially when you're trying to support a business. We left disappointed because this could have been such a nice experience.

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Good option for French-inspired eats in downtown LB…read more The hubby and I decided to stop in for brunch since we were in the area for the World Cup watch party. We'd been here a couple of times before, but only for drinks. The interior is quaint, with pretty typical Francophilic touches (pics of Parisian landmarks, etc). I decided on the Fit crepe, which is a buckwheat crepe filled with spinach and feta. Delicious, but the crepe was a bit dry around the edges. The drip coffee I got was great, however, and the hubby enjoyed his Veggie hash. Friendly service from the two servers, but they seemed a bit stretched--maybe it was more crowded than usual due to the watch party?

Not a super huge fan of French cuisine; however, the menu looked good and mostly reasonable prices. Restaurant is super cute with indoor/outdoor seating. We started off with a bottle of cab (41.00, ouch)! It was noted as a different brand on their menu and they came with a bottle of Josh Cellars which isn't a bad table wine but about 3 times the price! We ended up ordering the fondue for the app (24.00) which comes with bite size pieces of bread and diced apples. It was ok, a little too runny and had an interesting hint of beer flavor. Next up we both ordered the brie & prosciutto sandwich which came with a side of au gratin and greens. The sandwich was excellent but the potatoes were cold. We ended our meal sharing creme brulee for dessert. It was good but also served cold. Total bill incl tip: 163.00 bucks (double ouch)! Overall, meal and service was good, but I would forego the wine on a future visit as it was way overpriced for the brand we got as well as the cheese fondue. Will definitely be back though. Very comfy and charming atmosphere.

The olives were marinade in fennel pollen and orange. I couldn't get enough of them. We shared a beat salad that was very tasty and my wife had the rack of lamb which was delicious. I will say that I did not enjoy my main course of Porchetta. I felt like it had good flavor, but it wasn't cooked well and the center where the pork belly was supposed to be tender and melting was very tough, chewy and inedible to me. Despite this one dish I really liked the restaurant and I am eager to go back and try something different.
