I wanted to try a new coffee shop in the area, so after leaving my hospice cases, I decided to check Yelp for one nearby and ended up here. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly young lady at the cashier. I mentioned that I was there to Yelp and wanted to take some photos of the artwork on the walls. A few of the pictures I snapped might be useful for anyone looking for art classes. I noticed some food options on Yelp for the day, and I was definitely in the mood for a tasty lunch. Unfortunately, all they had was pastries in a glass display, which looked a bit stale to me. With prices ranging from $4.50 to $6 for a small dessert, I decided to skip it. On the bright side, I did try their pistachio latte, which typically comes with matcha. Since I'm not a fan of matcha, they kindly took it out and made it more of an espresso latte. It was absolutely delicious, and the sweetness was just right! I definitely want to come back when I'm in the area again where I am much needed for a cold drink since this was only 3 minutes away from one of my hospice cases so I would give it a 3.7 not having availability on the food options.

Kermie

The drinks here were a little disappointing sadly. I was super excited when I saw their specialty and seasonal drinks. But as soon as my Kermie came out, which is a matcha with pistachio milk, I could tell already right off the bat that this was not a good quality matcha. It was pretty watery and I was just expecting more. The Live Lav Love had a better consistency but I'm just not a lavender person so it wasn't for me (not the coffee shop's fault though!). I wonder if the hot drinks may be better. However, the space inside is very spacious so it makes for a good spot to hang out if you're in search of that!

The girls working were very friendly. There was a matcha latte and a horchata latte and I wanted both and they offered to mix it for me and it was really tasty! Good price and great quality. The Inside was spacious and very clean. I will be back

Solid food, drinks, and desserts that are all vegan! Cute ambiance, and friendly service too :) This is a great little coffee spot to work, chill, or enjoy something delicious. Whether you're vegan or not, it's definitely a delight to visit. Food: 4/5 Drinks: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 4.5/5 Overall: 4.33/5

Decided to try this place out since it's been on my list. It has beautiful clean bohemian type aesthetic that is nice for getting some work done. It's also completely vegan. I wanted the Cookie Butter latte but they were out of the syrup for it so I opted for the Coozelnut Latte which is a coconut and hazelnut latte with cinnamon, it was ok but I felt it was a bit weak and I like a bolder coffee taste. The food item I ordered was the major disappointment which was the ricotta jam toast. The vegan ricotta and jam was actually very great but the toast was so hard it was barely edible. Also I ordered apricot jam and got strawberry instead but it was fine because I ended up liking the strawberry. To no fault of his own, there was only one person working to take orders and make the drinks and food. He was super nice though and answered all my questions which I appreciated! I just don't think vegan is for me, or I tried this place on an off day. But it may be worth a try for others. It seemed to be a popular spot as indicated by the high traffic I observed throughout the afternoon.

I'm vegetarian so it's really nice that I can just go somewhere and order whatever I want without worrying about the ingredients! The service and warmth of this place is phenomenal- there's a great balance of community and productivity in this space and I believe that business will thrive in the coming years! I loved their spice a peel latte and their snacks are tasty too! I would definitely check this place out if you're looking for a catch-up session with friends or an aesthetic place to get some work done!

Went to Wood Coffee Co on my lunch break with a co-worker to read our books, and we both agreed that it was the perfect setting to relax. It is a plant-based, queer-owned company with a warm, comfy, and intimate vibe. There is street parking in adjacent neighborhoods, and the area is pretty walkable. We both ordered off the spring specials menu - I ordered the "Sarah Rose," a matcha latte with house made rose syrup. The matcha tasted fresh and creamy, so refreshing. The rose syrup was very light - I almost didn't taste it until the end of the drink. My friend got the "Live Lav Love," but asked if the cold brew could be lavender-based to match the lavender cold foam. The barista was very enthusiastic and accommodating. Initially, it seemed like there was only one barista working, taking orders, and making drinks. Because of this, it took a little while to get our drinks. Another barista eventually joined the first, and things seemed to move a bit faster. All in all, it was a cute place to spend some down time, and I'd definitely go back!

Decaf mocha and Liv Lov Lav iced coffee

Great space - delicious coffee! Popped in right before closing. Nolan was so welcoming and knowledgeable - evident he takes pride in his coffee offerings - even decaf was a solid roast. Got a broadway show rec to boot!

Iced Pumpkin Americano

Stopped by to get some work done and grab a caffeinated beverage. They were out of cold brew so I got the recommended iced pumpkin Americano. I think I've found my new fall drink! It was amazing, not too sweet and not too bitter --just right. The shop has a cozy welcoming ambiance and staff is very friendly and welcoming. Love this shop and it wasn't too crowded or too loud.

Quality coffee with a spacious work/study space. Coffee: we got the cookie butter and cinnamon roll lattes, with an extra shot. SO STRONG lol, stick with the regular dose of caffeine. The coffee is amazing. The cinnamon roll is 10/10. Not too sweet. Pastries: I didn't try any but the pop tarts were heart shaped and I was so tempted. Service: we ordered online for pickup, but they don't make it til you arrive. Which was fine, I'm glad bc we were running late so it was nice and fresh. Space: it's very spacious with bar style seating all around the perimeter, couches in the corners, long tables in the middle. Tons of space to spread out laptops, books etc. large windows so it's bright, airy and open. Def will be coming back to work/study!

This place is an absolute (plant-based) treasure and you must protect it at all costs. We've driven past this place hundreds of times, curious but never quite taking the bait. Yesterday morning, there was parking right out front (score!, because 10th Street parking can be gnarly at times) so we just went for it. This shop is SO beautiful. Like just the aesthetic made me want to stay. Everything seemed super clean and chill, and the barista behind the counter was super low-key and friendly. I ordered the Kermie, which was a special matcha on menu served with vanilla and pistachio milk. It was delicately sweet, with the grassy, slightly bitter edge from the matcha smoothed out by the vanilla and pistachio milk. Milder than I had anticipated but delicious nonetheless. It took a lot of willpower to not bat my eyelashes and use my best Miss Piggy voice when talking about it later. I got a pumpkin choco chip muffin for my toddler. It was delicious, slightly dense (true form for a vegan muffin) and very moist. The child gobbled it all up, with minimal crumbs in his wake. Price wise, slightly expensive. However, you're paying for quality and the experience of just existing in this beautiful space. Is it worth it? I believe so.

Excellent music selection, a great spot to work remote. Cozy space with friendly baristas and all vegan, too. Even some made-in-house plant milks and syrups which is extra special.

I've been on the lookout for the best coffee in Long Beach and I think Colossus might just be it…read more Colossus is an adorable storefront on 2ND Street. I'm absolutely obsessed with their coffee menu, baked items, sandwiches, and their selection of grocery-like goods. I ordered the Midsommar caramel latte, ceasar salad sandwich on their fresh baked bread, and the strawberry rhubarb and pistachio danish (!!). I'd easily sign up for this lineup to be my last meal on earth. I even ordered a sourdough bread loaf with olives so I could ride this high for several more days. The Midsommar latte is crafted with housemade caramel, espresso, milk, and topped with sprinkles of fennel and bee pollen - the perfect finale to an already incredible drink. To hear that they also offer an extensive pizza menu? You won't be seeing the last of me, Colossus.

Honestly, Colossus is a solid cafe and I bet they'll be booming once they finishing expanding…read more Still, I'm more a fan of their food than coffee. I got a honey lavender latte, as I've only tried their drip in the past. The honey lavender notes were definitely there, but the latte is much more on the milky side than coffee side, which is what I didn't like. However, their sandwich was soo good. The turkey and brie has a nice fluffy bread, a healthy portion of turkey, a mix of herbs, and this super sweet and fragrant fig mostarda, which is like a fig mustard spread. Definitely would come back for the sandwich, maybe not the coffee though.

Let's start with service: the woman at the front was very dry, quiet, and uninterested. We tried asking her if we could add cold foam or sweet cream to our drinks to make them sweeter, and she said it was only available on seasonal drinks. As an avid matcha latte consumer, this made zero sense to me. While I don't blame her bc she likely had nothing to do with that decision, she wasn't kind in relaying that information or trying to help me find something on the menu I may like. Her demeanor remained the same when my friend ordered his drink, and we both felt a very negative energy coming from this woman, simply put it didn't seem like she wanted to be there taking our order. This was around 1pm last Saturday (the 21st of March), so they had a decent amount of customers, but it wasn't some crazy morning rush. Forward to the drink : we grabbed our drinks which came out promptly. I tasted my matcha and just as I suspected due to the lack of sweetness, it just tasted like grassy chalk. I assumed that my friends latte would be better, as matcha can tend to have an earthy taste to it to begin with. Then I tried his... chalky and sour. Due to the lack of customization and the barista's attitude, we just took a couple sips and tossed our drinks. It was a super negative experience for a place I really really wanted to like. I think allowing people to use sweetener and cold foam on more than just seasonal lattes would be a great first start, and perhaps training the staff on appropriate customer interaction would also help. Loved the branding on this spot, but it seems like the people who work there don't want to be there and it really put a damper on the experience, and for a place so cute, the drinks and vibes should be top notch.

When I calmly told him he was being rude, he responded sarcastically and then escalated the situation by yelling at us and saying "f*ck you" before walking away. I was honestly in complete disbelief. That is unacceptable behavior from anyone, especially someone working in customer service. If you're in the area, you're better off going to Stereoscope Coffee down the street. The staff there are friendly, welcoming, and they don't curse at their customers. Philz seriously needs to address how this location treats people, because no one should be spoken to like that just for picking up coffee.
