ICED PEANUT BUTTER ESPRESSO (light ice): -- stunning visually various shades of brown and cream at the bottom -- needs a rigorous stir to get things going which is not easy with the cardboard "green" straws -- I had to try this when I was researching coffee in the area -- for a coffee and PB lover this is a must! -- absolutely splendid combo and delicious -- it was so good I had to use a spoon afterwards to "slobber duck" on the ice cubes -- not too sweet -- nice creaminess and you can see the PB Friendly staff and ample parking in the plaza even on a busy Saturday.

Oh, and their matcha iced teas..... WOW.

First time trying Stereoscope in Long Beach, and I'd definitely come back!…read more I went with a group, so I was able to try a few different drinks, including their sweetened matcha, Madagascar Vanilla Latte, and Signature Cream Top Latte. The location itself is fairly small, and parking can be a little rough since it's in a popular area with limited metered parking. It's probably not somewhere I'd personally plan to sit and hang out for a while, but they do offer online pickup through DoorDash, and the service was quick (for reference, I went at around 8:45am on a Sunday). The employees were also friendly and helpful when we had questions about the menu. What really stood out to me was the flavor! The drinks are rich, flavorful, and really well-balanced. It's not bitter, overly sweet, or too plain. Everything we tried tasted consistent and intentional. The prices are a little on the higher side, but based on the quality, I think it's worth it. I'd definitely come back, especially for the Madagascar Vanilla Latte, the matcha, or even to just try something new on the menu!

My husband and I enjoy Cyclops coffee and buy it to go and get the beans for our own at-home…read moreespressos. This review, however, is motivated out of my desire to offer major props to the young man - I think I overheard something like Sip? - working this morning. This guy was on his A game, multitasking and juggling multiple tasks with perceived ease and being pleasant and accommodating all at the same time. Great job! Your effort is noticed and appreciated. Thanks for that. Had it not been for this (and their delicious pastries), I'd give Cyclops a 3 - 4 stars because I have a real bone to pick with paying for a larger Americano and getting the same number of shots regardless. I don't like when businesses do that so that would have otherwise been a major ding for me.

Excellent cold brew! That's my jam…read more Great place to pop up your laptop and work! Plenty of seating and outlets. Staff were friendly and overall my experience was great. I got a croissant and they warmed it up for me. It was flaky and good, but wow was it buttery! My fingers were covered in grease and i got it all over my laptop. Oops. I wish they had a bigger selection of pastries. I got there at around 11 and their case was pretty bare. Usually my go-to stop in Long Beach for coffee because it's super convenient to get to, but parking can be tough!

If you're visiting to chat or hangout with a friend, I recommend sitting outside. There is a nice view of broadway and it has good shade. I had a cappuccino and a ham and cheese croissant. The cappuccino was just okay and the ham and cheese croissant was a bit weird. The cheese was melted but the ham felt cold and the bread slightly warm. It's wasn't my favorite. The service didn't stand out so I'm not sure that I'll be back.

I'm so frustrated with the service here today. I love this coffee shop, but the priority system…read moremakes zero sense. I stopped by before work and saw about 8 cars in the drive-thru. The lobby was completely empty--not a single soul inside--so I decided to park and walk in, thinking it would be faster. Big mistake. There were 6 to 7 staff members working, but they were completely focused on the drive-thru. They were incredibly slow with my order and ended up handing me my drink last. I watched every single car that was already in line when I arrived get their order and drive away before I even got mine. Also, in-person walk-ins should be faster, or at the very least, orders should be made in the order they are received. It is completely unfair to hold up someone standing right in front of you just to clear out the drive-thru. Extremely disappointing experience

Review #1,088 Posted on 7.14.26…read more We came here for some coffee on Saturday the 11th before our long drive back to NorCal from vacation down south. This spot is on a busy street in Long Beach, where there's some parking in the back. You can also enter or leave from front or back too. This is kind of a new/modern type of coffee place. Staff is super cool, and they pump out drinks pretty fast. They've got places to sit inside, and a unique menu with signature or named speciality drinks. My coffee was tasty. Would return for sure.
