The decor is absolutely beautiful. Its like being in a fairy tale. I vibe with this place incredibly well. The intention for the decor is noticed and I love it. They have minimal food, but done very well. The pretzel and olives are well worth getting. The drinks are great. Very well done. Ill be back for jazz night. People have to see this place and there is a patio upstairs! Beautifully done. Well intentioned. Absolutely love it! read more

My sister and I took my mom to Sunday tea for her birthday. Cute place and the food and tea were delicious. But sadly my mom could not hear us, due to the music being so loud, we did ask twice if they would turn it down a little to no avail. That is too much money to spend, to not be able to hear each other. We had to hurry out because she was getting frustrated. read more

The Wicked Wolf is a kind of place that offers the opportunity for whimsical mischief. For instance, they have a rooftop area. And this one time I was there alone with another, no other patrons just staff members walking around from time to time. We stole the moment to dance under the Long Beach sky, just the two of us as a famous Christina Perrio song gently wafted in the night breeze. At another separate time, I was at the Los Angeles County Fair with another. We rode the ferris wheel at such a time where our gondola stopped at the top just as the sun set. The moment was nothing but beautiful and life affirming because the sinking of the sun's light was like a real life video of nature happening in front of us, unburdened by static or data stall. We witnessed nature resting, and I feel, that it was a kin to a beauty falling into a gentle sleep. These two instances have a common factor: momentary bliss arrived to bless an experience because the environment supported discovery of unplanned joy. That is what I associate with the Wicked Wolf, and this time the joy arrived eventually because when my Mom and I arrived to their high tea on Mother's Day the experienced seem like it would land nowhere good. Truth be told, my mom and I arrived 15 minutes early and there was no host in the stand and the place was empty except for a foursome. The energy felt lacked luster. One or two minutes after, the bartender informed us that we were early and the host would come soon. We sat in an available sofa for two, a loveseat persay. This gave us an opportunity to admire the decor that transported us to a storybook forest where good fairies reside, not like swamp creatures and trolls with malevolent fangs and dragon green eyes. I especially loved the large roses in the ceiling. To set the stage, the black ceiling had vines hanging from it, and the few roses were pops of crimson red displayed above.These were wonderful accents to the central mural of the joint that invited the viewer within deeper into the fairy forest where a light shone on an unseen meadow. The place had the decorations and general environment to be a lavender fairy's lounge, but, it did not fully work as a team room. For instance, my mom and I were sat in another lover's couch. Initially, I did not want to sit here because we were given circular tray sets. So imagine being told to sit in a couch, and each of us would get a tv tray. So I was left to wonder if we were going to be served tea in Belle's living room or if were going to watch a flick as we ate pollo loco bowl? But then as I settled into the tranquility of the moment, saw more people come and find their seat or couch, and as the serviced picked-up I realized that this was high tea in a place that had taken disjointed beauty and tackied it together for a patched tea experience that worked well. It was like the experienced was blessed and allowed by the same spirit that brought forth Raggedy Ann. For instance, the pictures show these pretty violet petaled tea cups and matching plates. This pairing was dainty and perfect for a tea party happening under pink veils. But then the sugar cubes came in a hedgehog shaped holder which was just as precious as seeing a piglet in a carriage built for one. Then the cream carrier was in the shape of a milk carton. I wondered where the missing child portrait was? The pastry plate was in the shape of a tropical flower like the ones scattered all over Hawaii. It belonged in a beautiful lei. Each of these elements was cute in its own delicate and whimsical way but together they made an eclectic hodgepodge, not a coherent tea set. And in this asymmetry laid the glitter of their error. The host also brought these clip on dainty hats that were perfect touches for make believe tea party. He carried them around in their original packing, including the box they came in. Not exactly the tailor of the queen, offering hats to the villagers as a gift from her to them, but still the effort magnified the moment. The tea food was the worst stumble that Red took as she was being chased by the Wicked Wolf. To begin with the end analysis, the tea offerings in general were standard, and not bites fit for a princess and her wedding court. For instance, the cream cheese and cucumber sandwich was just that---- a cucumber and cream cheese sandwich. I detected no effort to make it more than that. The blueberry scone was solid, nothing to skip through a meadow about. But once you added the jam of the table to the scone it was much easier to enjoy. I also had a madeline that was fluffy in the center but could have been purchased maybe at Costco. I had a Macaron and same thing, delicious but I have had something similar before and I suspected that it did not come from a place afloat with Parisian affairs. The best part of the tiers was this puff like thing that had like a Concha texture and design at the top. It was a sweet filled bite that was fit for a man made of muffin. read more

Had a wonderful time in this quaint mystical lounge. Ambiance and decor were fantasy driven, so we're the drinks. Very creative beverage menu with combinations that I've never heard of that tasted amazing. I loved the True Loves Kiss. Moscow mules and old fashions everyday for only $10!. There is an outdoor rooftop area as well. The charcuterie was tasty and well worth $12. Service was pleasant. Definitely will go again. read more

First time here. Love the vibe. Dark but lit enough! They have a quiet upstairs (outdoor). Kris gave two great drink recommendations the midnight trix and solstice sorbet; both are bomb. Hubby got into the woods (kinda like a smoked Old fashioned) also good... Isaak was an awesome bartender! Like I said first time here but definitely not our last!

I'm so happy we found this gem! I brought my daughter for the Afternoon Tea service on a Sunday. The space is so cute! Great concept, well executed and decorated with the best vibes! Plus the food and drink was fabulous! One of the best tea services I've had! The bartender/server was so kind and welcoming letting us know we could be inside or out on the roof when we came in. The roof area was super cute but it was a little warm so we settled on one of the cozy velvet couches. We ordered a little too much but so excited to try it all we started with the charcuterie board. It comes on a cute snail shaped board. Especially loved the honey walnuts and cheese. The tea service comes with tea, mimosa, tea sandwiches, scones, desserts and fruits. You can tell the cucumber and chicken salad sandwiches were made to order. The cucumber is fresh, the right amount of herbs and seasoning! The chicken salad was also amazing! Zingy from what i think was Dijon and both were so moist and delicious! Scones were perfect! The mimosas were yummy and so was the tea. We ordered the oolong and Jasmine tea that came with ginger and butterfly pea syrups! What a whimsical touch that made it all perfect. read more

This is a fun, themed bar in Long Beach! Prepare to park on the street but there were plenty of spaces when we went. The staff is friendly and the place has lots of fun backdrops for photos. They have an extensive drink menu full of themed cocktails. I got the Defying Gravity. Defying Gravity- This has a pear vodka base with pear liqueur, pear syrup, and foam. Moderate sweetness and definitely fruity and refreshing. Great experience overall! read more

Locally owned small cocktail bar that does afternoon tea. Came to celebrate a birthday and the inside is adorable. Dark Alice in wonderland vibe with a lot of potential for a great party location. Highlights were the tea selection and the scones and sandwiches were huge portions. There were many people that day and service was a bit delayed. Tea took over an hour to get but we had passion fruit mimosas quickly. I would suggestion a smaller group for a better experience. I can see the owner puts a lot of passion and love into this place and it's a great local spot to come out and support. read more

Five stars for Ishmael! My book club meets at the Wicked Wolf and it was my first time visiting the establishment. I've been wanting to visit for the longest time because of all their cool events and just the overall buzz I've been hearing about it. I entered the place on a Sunday afternoon and was immediately greeted by Ishmael behind the counter who was busy greeting patrons, mixing drinks, and taking orders. The interior was decorated for Halloween and I love the art of the wolf at the bar. There's indoor and outdoor seating on the top and bottom floor. I ordered a passion fruit matcha and a couple of other members of my book club ordered some drinks and we were informed that our drinks will be brought upstairs for us. During that time, Ishmael was helping another party who were sampling teas and he was also trying to help other patrons that entered so he was super busy but was still killing it. Throughout our hour and a half meeting, Ishmael and another staff member came to check on us and brought us our food and drink orders and even took our book club meeting photo for us. He and his coworker, whose name we didn't get, are an absolute treasures and made us all feel so welcome and comfortable. Ismael is quite possibly one of the most easy going and kindest people! I can't wait for our next meeting to try out more of the menu. read more

Okay this place is actually a whole experience. I came here for this super cute book bedazzling event my book club was hosting, and I was immediately obsessed. The inside?? Literally feels like you stepped into a fairytale cottage in the woods. Every little detail even the bathroom is on theme. It's giving cozy, magical, slightly unhinged woodland vibes in the best way. I lowkey wish I came on a weekend because apparently they have a tea party menu, which just feels very on brand for the whole vibe. The bartenders were also amazing super sweet, on it, and actually gave solid recommendations instead of just staring at you while you panic order. Overall, such a fun, unique spot. I'd 100% come back, especially to experience the tea party moment. read more

The Wicked Wolf is an amazing spot for drinks, tea parties, and for special themed nights in Long Beach. It's located on a busy street but parking isn't too much of an issue the times I've visited. If you're seeking a style that's dark academia, dark cottagecore, or a whimsical spot, then this is your vibe! The service is great, the bartenders are super nice. I will be brutally honest and say that the times I've eaten their small bites, tea, and coffee and they're alright. I think the ambiance, theme, and customer service more than make up for it. I've tried their afternoon tea and it is so whimsical and delightful! The owner is great, she is very involved in everything! Check out their social media on Instagram and Facebook to find out about their weekly and monthly events. I love the Wicked Wolf and I hope it's here to stay for the long run! read more

The Wicked Wolf was everything I expected and maybe even more! I came here a while ago for my birthday with my best friend and we had a great time here. We arrived around 8ish on a Sunday night after having dinner and fortunately the bar was quite empty except for a few other patrons. The interior decor was cute and for some reason gave me forest fairy vibes. The drinks were elegant and the bartender was sweet enough to even give me a birthday shot. After much anticipation, I'm glad I finally had the chance to check out The Wicked Wolf and I'd definitely stop by again for a night out in the city. Totally recommend to anyone at least for a one & done experience! read more

I came here once before but didn't have a chance to get photos or write a review They have a bunch of pros They are open pretty late They have bands and events, you can scan the menu and it tells you the schedule for upcoming events. The band we saw when we came in was called - second hand smoke. I felt like I was at a lounge in New Orleans They have great seating vs just sitting at the bar. They have such beautiful couches to lounge on. The atmosphere is great, I love the color scheme here. The place isn't huge, but they have a great amount of seating. And it's comfortable. I love the magical forest vibe The bartenders were all great They are also right next door to Wrigley bbq. And they don't mind if you bring food in from there (they are literally right next door) Wicked wolf does have a very limited food menu. It's just small things like a charcuterie board, hummus, a sandwich and other little items We did end up ordering the charcuterie board and the Cubana sandwich It is street parking. But both times I've came I got a spot right up front The drinks are great. I got an espresso martini and for my second round I had the pornstar (both my two favorite drinks) My girl, Lynn ended up getting the golden spike and an old fashioned. They also have a page full of signature mocktails to order. They also offer tea and coffee during the day I literally have zero complaints. It's a great place to just sit with girlfriends and have a couple drinks. It's definitely not your typical bar, so don't come here looking for a wild party. This is just a nice calm place to come with girlfriends if you want to grab a drink or two and just relax and talk Bonus points for it being locally owned and woman owned read more

An excellent bar to hangout with friends or partners. We didn't have any food, but the drinks were awesome and decently priced. Service was friendly. We went on a Thursday evening and there was a trio playing live jazz. The music was very good, especially as there's no cover. The decor is nice. There is also an upstairs rooftop deck. The only problem is that there is no parking, so you might want to Uber. read more

I was really excited to visit this bar--I've always been a huge fan of fairy tales and thought the theme was such a fun concept for a bar. When we got there, I felt that the decorations and drinks felt a bit gimmicky, with random fairy tale-esque elements like a throne and massive red roses. I thought it would have been very cool to see Easter eggs and more intentionality bringing the atmosphere together. Since it was an hour before closing, we didn't plan to stay very long. The two people working at the bar were both unwelcoming and seemed upset that we were there (there were other people at the bar, including people who arrived later in the night than us). We paid for our drinks, which cost over $40 for 2 drinks with tip. My cocktail was $17 and came in a glass barely bigger than a shot glass. We left around the time they were calling for last call. I can understand not wanting stragglers who prevent the bartenders from closing late, but I would have much preferred being turned away at the door rather than paying and tipping for an overall unpleasant experience. read more

$45 high tea per person- so worth it! Make sure to book ahead as this is reservation only service The Wicked Wolf offers! Came on a Saturday and it was a little busy but nonetheless we were taken care of! Our high tea came with two pots ( I got English breakfast, my friend got earl grey), mimosas( blood orange and regular), blueberry scones with clotted cream, madeleines, medley of fruits and two types of finger sandwiches(cucumber and chicken)! We enjoyed them all and I'm glad we tried this place out! We do need to come back for the bar though, and I heard they host cool events as well( like the improv shows, music, etc) read more

I don't normally do this but I decided to challenge myself and go to a bar alone. Happened to come during one of their theme nights and the theme was Repeal Day (had to look this up lol). December 5th marks the anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition era, which lasted 13 years! Whew, that's a long time to not consume alcohol hehe ;) Since they turned the bar into a speakeasy, it took me doing something a lil uncomfortable to get in. You had to knock on the metal door 3x and howl like a wolf. I remember I jokingly told the dapper doorman that I was too sober for this LOL. Thankfully no one was around when I lifted my head and tried to howl as convincingly as I could. After a few moments, Isaac opened the door and I was granted entry. Yesssss. Isaac gave me a quick rundown on what the theme was and the fact that they were running a special where if we paid $15 for the "ticket," we'd get one drink for free and it included a tasting. I felt dumb when I realized he meant alcohol tasting and not food. I was real hungry by the time I got there lol. I declined the special offer and instead opted just for regular drinks at the bar. My bartender, Shannon, was very patient with me and walked me through the different kinds of drinks they had available that night. Unfortunately, it was a limited menu as they were only making themed drinks based on the Prohibition era, but I wasn't disappointed in them. I'm accustomed to basic drinks like margaritas, palomas, moscow mules, etc., but I was happy with Shannon's recommendations--I ordered a Whiskey Sour and a Bee's Knees. I definitely liked the Bee's Knees better. That honey syrup in there made it easy for me to lap up lol. The food is limited but I was grateful they even had any--they've got a charcuterie board, hummus and pita chips, a Cubano sandwich, and beef & chicken empanadas. The chicken empanada was okay, it kinda tasted like I was eating store bought but can't prove it lol. The Cubano sandwich was goooood. I'm not sure about the full list of ingredients but from what I gathered--meats (ham and something else), cheese, pickled veggies, bell peppers, and I wanna say onion. I felt like it would've paired well with the Bee's Knees but I was full by the time I ordered that last drink of mine lol. And gosh, the ambience was cool. Dimly lit interior, nicely decorated, and I absolutely adored the staff, the blues band that played that night--Shy But Flyy--and its patrons. Once the band started playing and their mesmerizing female lead took the stage, I was blown away. Truly. Real, raw talent from this group. I couldn't stop bobbing my head along to the music. It was such a vibe. They even had Magic Castle magicians come that night! IYKYK. They'd go up to the patrons and perform card tricks, mentalist tricks, etc. I was too shy to go up to them but one of the magicians had come up to do stage magic and we were BLOWN. AWAY. He basically was able to read people's minds and did this cool calculator trick haha. Even though I was the only patron who came alone, no one made me feel awkward at all and was very welcoming. I could definitely see this place being a regular spot of mine and for others as well. Thank you Wicked Wolf, for making my first, solo bar hang one of the greatest privileges I've ever had. read more

Love the ambience of this quaint bar in Long Beach. Came on a Friday to gran some drinks and they had a full jazz band playing and salsa dancing for $50 upstairs. We ordered chicken empanadas and the charcuterie board. Nice bites for the variety of drinks available to experience. The service was nice, everyone was pleasant and helpful with informing you of ingredients. The bar is a good area to sit when they have a band, outside of that when they do have seating available, it is still a nice space. read more

This is a quirky tea house by day turned dimly-lit cocktail bar and live music lounge by night and as transformational and versatile as your favorite superhero's costume change. When you walk into The Wicked Wolf, it feels like you are entering a bat cave (or maybe it's a wolf den?) and once your eyes adjust to the light change you see that you have been transported to a mystical, mythical land lined by green forest trees (spoiler alert: interior is painted all black with the rear ascent wall covered from floor to ceiling with wallpaper of trees) you almost expect the white cloud of smoke to slowly pass under your feet and dramatic instrumental music to amplify. But, instead you are greeted by friendly bartenders informing you that after 4pm, the tea and coffee is no longer served and fairytale-themed cocktail (and mocktail!) drinks are shaken to perfection. My favorite mocktail was the popular Sleeping Beauty. (I didn't try any cocktails because I'm doing Dry January; Sorry, not sorry) Then you explore the space to discover that there is an outdoor upstairs patio with string lights and hanging space heaters (brrr...it gets a little chiller at sun down). While you enjoy your drink you just might run into the owners, a kind-hearted couple, who are testing out this hybrid cafe/bar concept (and, most recently, a donation center for fire evacuees) a little over a month ago. As an LGBTQA+ ally, I appreciate that this is a queer-friendly space, too. That evening a two-man musical duo - Chad on the vocals and trombone and Ashanti on the good old wooden guitar - by the name of Acoustic Soul Express performed for a comfortably-sized head-bopping crowd of locals. Playing all the hits you can't help but sing along to, I would recommend that you bring cash to tip these musical artists. read more

I am extremely disappointed with our experience at the Wolf Afternoon Tea pop-up at Partake Collective. We paid $65 per person for what was marketed as a "fancy," "full-service" event, but the reality was a complete money grab. From the start, management was unorganized. The staff arrived late, leaving us to wait outside on the sidewalk among people smoking pot. Furthermore, there was no indication or sign pointing this building as the correct location, making us wait outside wandering around until the front desk opened the door for us 10 minutes after the service was supposed to start. Once inside, the "premium" environment consisted of paper tablecloths and flimsy folding tables and plastic chairs. The tea--which was the main event--was flavorless, with only three unappetizing unnatural options. Most concerning was the lack of sanitation. There were no plates or forks provided until requested; we were expected to grab food off the shared trays without tongs, while sharing platters with strangers. While the description mentioned "farm-style seating," it did not mention a total lack of basic dining utensils and shared table/food with strangers. How is standard sanitation regulated if we were all expected to grab food off the same trays without utensils? Moreso, the worker at the front desk came in during the experience in order to grab herself a portion of food and tea. When I brought this up, management's response was simply that "it was in the description." The only saving grace was the waiter, who was friendly despite the management's failures. Avoid this event--it is nowhere near worth the price. read more

My first visit to The Wicked Wolf was for their inaugural daytime tea menu. They've created a fun and funky ambiance in which to enjoy spot of tea and some light eats. Both the cucumber sandwich and Mexican chocolate chia pudding were good. The pudding had a lovely rich dark chocolate flavor. The lavender cardamom syrup in the Lavender Fields matcha latte was subtle but lovely. They offer nine options of loose leaf tea: three each of black, green, and herbal, plus ceremonial matcha, a chai, and London fog tea lattes and a few signature creations. I'd love to see their tea options grow as business does well but they're off to a good start! read more

My experience at The Wicked Wolf on Halloween night was an absolute nightmare, entirely defined by the aggressive and unprofessional conduct of the security. We arrived around 12:00 am and approximately an hour and a half before closing the whole incident occurred. We were there less than 30 minutes, and had our night ruined all over a single drink. First, let's address the drinks: the cocktails were well-crafted, fantastic. Cute bartender in a lil hot dog costume, whatever. While the drinks came out slowly, we understood this was because they were being properly made, and we genuinely appreciated the quality. HOWEVER, any potential enjoyment was immediately destroyed by the security team. The hostility began the moment we tried to order. We were standing near the bar, looking at a menu in what appeared to be the designated ordering area. The security guard immediately confronted us and rudely instructed us to move, stating we had "plenty of space" on the other side of the bar... like not even two feet away.... Weird power trip, but OK. Super unnecessary intervention considering we weren't blocking anyone or obstructing anything. NEXT--The situation escalated after we finally received our drinks. My husband and I briefly stepped out to the patio, and immediately turned back to sit in the main area after seeing there was no one outside and realized the patio door locked us out of the main bar. My husband was forced to walk through the side door and re-enter through the main front entrance to open the door for me to be to be let back inside (I held the drinks) on the patio to avoid leaving the premises with them. Low and behold, we sit back down at a table in the general bar area--we mistakenly left the patio door open for a moment, (there was no signage saying the patio was closed or that the door must remain closed) and the "security" guard rushes over and aggressively confronts us in front of other patrons. He was belligerent and accusatory, yelling, "Did you guys open the door?" I say yes... (he clearly saw us come in) and he yells, " I closed it for a reason!"... like??? Ok? I started to explain that we went to see if there was a smoking section (I thought he was a normal individual making conversation or just letting us know the patio was closed) but he stormed off so quick and disrespectfully without a complete thought. This ultimately left us visibly disturbed with furrowed brows and displeased looks on our faces... The audacity to chastise adult patrons as if they were your disobedient children is crazy. TO STORM AWAY ON TOP OF IT??? Yeah, I really don't know what was going on with this guy last night. It rubbed me so wrong I had to make a Yelp review about it. Just totally absurd and uncalled for. ANYWAY-- I guess he had 'some' sense--Recognizing our distress, the guard came back with a pitiful attempt at an apology or excuse, telling us it was simply his "pet peeve" when people left the patio door open.... TO HARASS PAYING CUSTOMERS over a personal "pet peeve" ON A HOLIDAY AND A FRIDAY NIGHT is UNPROFESSIONAL, OBNOXIOUS and completely ABSURD. So, TLDR-- loved the drinks but I will NOT be returning, security was an a hole and a c word. We WILL NOT pay money to get antagonized over here. This man didn't even ID us or anyone the thirty minutes we were there but threw a hissy fit about a patio door. You're worried about the wrong door sweetie. Thank you bartenders, hopefully management does something about that mentally unsound individual. read more
