I like CBTL, and their staff is always so friendly and courteous! This review is specifically for a pickup order that I placed with them via the "Too Good to Go" app. I usually don't purchase too many food items at the coffee shop, but the price for a surprise bag of items was only 4.99+tax, and they sell out fast so I figured this was a good opportunity to try a few. Pickup window was 5pm-6pm. I arrived right at 5pm, and told the barista I was picking up. She was multitasking with a few things and said she was just getting ready to pack it up. I got it quickly from there, easy transaction, friendly service as always. My bag had 4 items, which is less than some I had seen and read about, but still it was about 1/3 the usual cost for the items, and every item was something I would have loved to try. I had a Caprese sandwich, vegan banana bread slice, lemon raspberry muffin and blueberry scone. Each item was individually pre-packaged, and very fresh, not like a leftover to be discarded. The sandwich was tasty, pesto spread and bread soft, and good amount of basil and mozzarella. Not much tomato, though. The banana bread was moist and delicious, too. The muffin was tiny but very rich and sweet. I saved the scone for another day but it was huge and packed with blueberries. In all, a fair purchase, and nice to discover their food items are good quality. read more

So, like so many other ppl, the local coffee shop is my "3rd spot". I started coming to Coffee Bean about 15 years ago as part of a cigar smoking group. The manager at the time, Morgan, took real pride in her store. She set high standards for cleanliness. That hasn't been the case since. Several days ago I was here ...(my friends come through every day). While waiting I looked at water bottles to buy. I noticed the tops & the shelves were completely dusty and dirty. I mentioned it to the retail employee, who turned to say something to the manager, but he was busy. It's now Friday, still just as filthy and Alex, the manager, is in this afternoon (12:40 pm). He helped with my purchase so I mentioned the retail was filthy and stated that I had mentioned to the employee..., he responds, "Yea it's dusty" as if that's ok and looks at me like I did something wrong. Maybe if I put it in writing... Quick update. I'm leaving now at 3 PM. I saw the Manager leave and I just went to the washroom and walked out... I saw him sweep the floor, but the retail is still dusty and still filthy. Wow. read more

I have been to this location a couple of times only out of convenience, due to the fact that it's near Krispy Kreme donuts and it reduces me having to drive too much. Today I went in to redeem my free drink coupon and the barista looked at me like I was from another planet when I asked if I could use 2 coupons in 1 transactions. Other Coffee Bean locations have made me do separate transactions. This guy was able to do it in one order, but seemed very irritated with me for asking the question and I felt rushed. I'm not a young person. I didn't grow up with cell phones, apps, or the internet. It seems like everyone who works here is very unhappy and hates their job based on the times I've visited, especially Sundays. I don't expect to get free drinks or for people to recognize me and give me special treatment just because I'm a Comedian. However, this particular location has subpar customer service in my opinion. I'm just going to patronize my usual location from now on because I shouldn't be made to feel uncomfortable. I ordered the Iced Lightened Matcha Latte, but then had stomach issues afterwards. I didn't need medical attention, but I was concerned because I've never got sick after having anything (food or beverage) from Coffee Bean. BTW, I have no food allergies or restrictions. read more

Absolutely terrible service they didn't have the bagel pushed us to order something else then made us wait while everyone else got their food only to finally say they didn't even have the replacement either completely unorganized and a total waste of time Do better. read more

Y'all need to update your hours on google. We drove over 25 minutes to get to the store and it was closed. Waste of time and gas.

This is my local coffee bean and I like to come here to study. They have plenty of outlets and the noise is minimal. My favorite thing about this location is the unique artwork that changes throughout the year. It's always a fun surprise and the artist/barista seems extremely talented! Everyone in this location is friendly but I will say they do get pretty busy so beware if you're in a rush (I recommend mobile ordering). read more

The customer service here is terrible. The black guy seemed annoyed that we ordered two drinks and on top of that he smelled so bad. We could smell him from across the register and smelled worst than the homeless people in there. Really made me doubt how clean their coffee shop is if they can't even shower themselves. As we were leaving we said "thank you" and not a single reply. If you work in customer service you know the least you can do is say thank you back or even a have a good one. The coffee isn't as good as it used to be either. Just save your money and go to the Starbucks nearby. They at least always say thank you. read more

Barista is very rude and doesn't greet me because I'm homeless. Just stares at me with a blank look. Also they were out of lowfat milk. There is never any napkins, sugar or cream available, they make you beg the barista for basic stuff. read more

Shitty customer service , rude baristas , last time I visit this location. It was the Night shift on 11/8 the African american guy needs some serious coaching and the gal with wild hair and brows they have zero customer service and both rude AF , if you work at a coffee place learn about the drinks and don't answer "I don't know" to everything , the only positive thing was the coffee The Vietnamese Brew was decent. read more

The staff was very helpful when we stopped by. Coffee was delicious. Only issues was the bathroom needed a good cleaning.

I came here to get a gift card and a drink, and I was really surprised when I came here! The Cookie Butter drinks come iced, hot, and ice blended which I was so excited about! I got a Cookie Butter Iced Latte, and it tasted great! I tried my sister's Iced Matcha Latte, and it was good! It doesn't taste like just milk or like seaweed like the matcha lattes that Starbucks makes so I thought that was great. The grilled cheese was just a basic grilled cheese, nothing special. It's definitely a better study spot than Starbucks. The seats are more comfy, and they are cushioned. The lighting isn't too harsh and bright, and it's pretty clean here! There's also a ton of cute drawings that the employees did, I saw a little Snoopy on the straw container! The employees are super helpful and nice. There were about 3 employees, but they all seem great! I would come back here again! It feels cozy, and it seems like the perfect place to study or to sit down and catch up! read more

There's always plenty of parking since it's around ximeno circle plaza area. I always love the drinks here. Staff is friendly, attentive, and accomdating. They always have a smile on their face and the Music is always spot on. Their new ube coconut latte was so good! New favorite drink now! I hope it stays on the menu for awhile. read more

We were on our way home and wanted to grab a drink. My cousin brought us here because she had tried the Mango Cold Brew Tea, and thought it was really good. So, we all ordered that, but it doesn't seem to be consistent, because my cousin said it wasn't as good as the last time she got it. And you can see in the picture I took, the middle one looks different, even though they are all the same drinks. Still refreshing. read more

Came here for my usual and I see that they are short staff... Well not totally because there manager walked in and didn't even get on the floor to help her team. I don't get it, like since shes come onto the team she's just not a team player like previous managers: JENNIFER, PETRA... it's sad and she's really not even pleasant from the few interactions I've had with her either. As a bunch of us customer waited we chatted about the previous mangers and how awesome the (2) most amazing team members are with taking orders, crank out drinks, greeting guests and this new manager just walks in all casually and heads straight to the back!? Anyways, SHOUTOUT to this morning crew of (2). When it's busy, when it's slow they are always friendly, accommodating and welcoming. Cheyanne always knows each customers order before they can even place their order! The guy I forget his name (forgive me) but he's so funny, gets all orders right and is so kind even when it's busy. This morning team of (2) really needs some recognition and promotions! They function seamlessly no matter their circumstances! MY USUAL: today 8/23/23 was a Ice-blend Matcha and it was so good! OVERALL: You know these (2) Leaders are great when there is a crowd of people standing around but everyone remains calm and more than willing to wait for their orders!! Thanks guys for all you do, your hard work is NOT in vain! You always make my drinks just like I ask and Cheyanne you're a complete doll --promotion is in your near future!!! read more

After the pandemic, I've tired to give CB stores my business. In one of the most spectacularly stupid decisions; this location has discontinued offering NSA mocha powder in store. Guess what store will no longer get my business? Stop discontinuing things we've been addicted to for decades. (While I am at it, bring back the chocolate covered espresso beans. High margin item.) Please show the person who made this bad decision my review. Upside; this is an easy issue to fix. Open up a can of NSA you have for retail. read more

Purchased a "mystery bag" for 5.50 via the Too Good to Go app for pickup. Ended up with a jalapeño cheese croissant, regular croissant, blueberry scone, and a chocolate muffin (all prepackaged). Pastries were ok but disappointed they're not made in house. Parking lot is a nightmare since it shares it with many other businesses read more

To whom it may concern: Since moving to Long Beach. I've been here three times, however this time Journey behind the counter is so nice and patient with me in figuring out what I wanted. She made a couple of suggestions, great suggestions. Really good customer service skills and very attentive. I'm getting use to this location. I'm hooked on Coffee Bean again. So much for that other coffee place. Keep up the great customer service. Sincerely, L. Mix read more

I could tell they were getting rushed but all the staff were so sweet, offering excellent service to every customer. They made adjustments for customers who wanted a little more milk or whatever and even apologized for the wait, when I probably didn't even wait 5 minutes. Great work :) read more

Had a tasty foo foo iced blended coffee drink (Cookie Butter Latte) earlier. Tasty, not overly sweet, AND good coffee flavor too. Also had egg white bites. The combination made a great and tasty snack. One of our better experiences from CB&TL. read more

I used to love coming to this Coffee Bean, but now I can't recommend it at all knowing what's going on behind the scenes. The drinks were never up to par unless they were made by Ellora, who was by far the most attentive barista there. Ellora was a customer favorite, and talking with her was always the most delightful part of my visits. She truly brought a special energy and warmth to this place. To make matters worse, I recently overheard that Ellora was unrightfully fired because the manager had a personal vendetta. This is such a disappointing and unprofessional move, especially considering how much customers loved her. With Ellora gone and the quality of service plummeting, I won't be returning to this location. Management clearly doesn't care about their employees or their customers. What a shame. read more

I love coffee bean's products but I liked coming specifically to this location because there was a certain barista who took always put a smile on my face. Ellora took her job seriously and prioritized the customer's experience. It's saddened me to see that she's been let go so therefore I won't be back to this location! I'm sure others agree as well, Im very upset with whoever made the decision to let her go since her service made this store so much better. read more

Service is a joke here Nicole can't hear your voice but NEVER uses courteous response like "I'm so sorry ma'am I can't hear you can you speak up" nope just keeps repeating the word WHAT! So I raise my voice and she has the nerve to look What kind of coffee place doesn't have soy milk I don't get it so she tells me we don't have soy. Never "sorry we don't have soy " just we don't typically carry soy here. Then she tries to add sugar to my vanilla alternative drink because they don't have my soy and I tell her no extra sugar Anyway, it was the worst freaking experience I've ever had steer clear until nicole gone. They need to hire some folks who have heard of the word customer service experience. Coffee turned out good and I got almond milk I hope that Roy Langford, the General manager gets this message read more

I only give this place two stars because of how wonderful this barista named Ellora. Ellora is hands down the best barista around. She's always so friendly, efficient, and makes my coffee exactly how I like it every single time. Her attention to detail and warm attitude truly brighten up my mornings. That said, I can't say the same about the general manager. Unfortunately, he's consistently rude and seems disorganized, often causing delays and confusion. It's clear he struggles with managing the team, and it affects the overall experience. It's frustrating, because Ellora deserved better especially as she was unjustly fired! And the rest of the staff deserve better leadership. read more

01/01/2023, $6.90 now for a large cafe mocha from Coffee Bean although .85 cents extra because I got oat milk instead of regular milk. Plus it's very sweet, taste like a mouthful of sugar. I won't be returning to Coffee Bean anymore. Too expensive and nasty tasting now. They are making everything very sweet like Starbucks. I guess more folks are becoming very addicted to sugary drinks. read more

I stopped by this morning around 7:15 because my son requested breakfast here for his end of the school week treat. Well sad to say my son was super disappointed because there was ABSOLUTELY no one here. Doors locked, chairs on tables, a complete ghost town. The business hours that were listed on the window says they open at 5am a complete waste of time! read more

Horrible customer service!! Don't greet customers, didn't help for being a first time buyer!!! Didn't suggest any anything when my husband ask. These two male employees don't belong there. Bad attitude!!! Never coming back again read more

Can't believe I'm not that sick of this drink yet. The large cookie ice blended coffee! I been here a lot for work and it has always been great. I'm still here right now waiting for my windows update because wifi anywhere ain't that fast. No joke, best cookie and cream anywhere! read more

Honestly this is my favorite CB location in LB. Staff is always so polite and very helpful, I've been coming here just about daily and I've never had any issues. The only time my order was delayed I was given a "drink on us" voucher. Always makes my drinks just the way I like them with my substitutions LOL. Love that parking is never an issue here! read more

I come here regularly and usually I never have this problem, but this is the first time that the drink came out as milk when I ordered an small iced vanilla coffee. Don't get me wrong. The service here is really really good it's always clean. Again, I usually never have this problem and this is the first time it happened to me, I didn't ask for it to be remade cause I would think that they would need to remake it if you see the picture overall customer service is 100. It's clean always always and it always smells good. read more

The cashier who took my order was friendly. I ordered a hazelnut iced coffee with oat milk. There was not enough coffee in my drink and there were large clumps of powder- more than usual. The staff seemed more concerned about chatting with each other. I also sensed a sour attitude from the barista making drinks. The comments she made in front of customers seemed unprofessional and immature. It showed through the quality of my drink. I don't know if I will return here again. read more

If I can put zero stars, I would. Ellora was my favorite barista and truly gave me the best customer service experience with a warm smile. It's disheartening to see someone so talented and kind no longer part of this team. I've had fine interactions from Roy, but his behavior and attitude towards his baristas is very off putting and leaves a horrible impression. As a regular customer, Roy's treatment towards his team makes me not want to return. I hope to see improvement in staff decisions and customer service. read more
