“Thas sufren flavors dipens what you asking for“

“I'd like to give a big thank you to the staff this morning on 3-1-26 at 7:15am
I misplaced my order and the morning staff was very kind in getting my order ready and prepared for me on time. Thank you very much for the assistance and quick service.“

“Relaxing smells of coffee ☕️ and close to home“

“A cute coffee pit stop on the way to or from the beach. Even though thus far I’ve only had the coconut coffee tonic, the menu appears to be creative of sorts.

I asked for a splash of milk in the tonic and was pleasantly surprised that it was coconut. Vibes won’t win any awards just yet. However, I take into account that some people can be shy, and they warmed up a little on my second visit. Shout-out to Asher, who asked how my day was going.

Atmosphere gets a 3/5 because I didn't sit inside long enough to vibe out the vibe, and there's no restroom. Call me old-fashioned.

For now, it will be my new regular pit stop.“

“The cold brew is smooth and full bodied, not like others that taste charred, and served with a blue and white paper straw. Friendly service. Wonderful ambience on a Sunday morning. Unfortunately, no vegan pastries. And the only food item with a (v) for vegan on the menu is a side salad. All smoothies are labeled vegan. Updated from previous review on 2026-07-26“

“Best dirty chai I've ever had in my life & the butter scones are insanely delicious. Pursue is very consistent and just as amazing 💖

Whenever folks have friends and family in town, you can always see them bringing their loved ones here to share this gem with them and I do the same

The only time I go anywhere else for coffee is when they are closed 🥰“

“Such a beautiful place! All white chairs and tables are too cute! The coffee is so delicious and the crepes!!! I will definitely be back to taste savory crepe, today I got the Nutella and strawberry! The fried egg sandwich was so flavorful! And then shakerto was even better! Sweet but full body! ❤“

“BREAKFAST BURRITO!!! O-M-G! Probably top 2 in Long Beach right now, and I love Breakfast Burritos. The res salsa they have adds the perfect touch of spice as well. Very well done overall. As far as the coffee goes, didn’t really stand out. It’s good, not great. A little above average, but nothing out of the ordinary. But that Burrito on the other hand. Yeah, go try it. Its amazing.“

“Such a sweet and kind establishment“

“Love this place! ❤️ Great tea and delicious pastries! The scones are my favorite! Great atmosphere and definitely one of my to-go-to fave places!“

“cute local coffee shop, friendly & great recommendations“

“Micah was my barista who was very knowledgeable about the espresso machine and the coffee beans used in the process of the French Toast Latte.“

“My flat white was good, the cinnamon custard Danish was so yummy, they allowed dogs, and even provided treats that my picky maltipoo wouldn't eat. Love this place. Just wish they had more outdoor seating and the music inside wasn't so loud.“

“I discovered a new go-to coffee shop whenever I’m in town in the future here in LBC🤙🏼On my first visit, I was looking for a coffee shop that serves Affogato and the search led me here. It was a wise choice. I enjoyed the Affogato and tried the traditional Turkish coffee while I was there. WOW! That was so good! On our way out the owner and I had a short conversation about Philippines. He told me next time I come for Turkish coffee, I should also get baklava along with it. So this morning my baby sister and I went back. I did try the baklava along with the traditional Turkish coffee as suggested from my first visit. That was a good recommendation! I had baklavas on my visits in Greece and I would put up the baklava in this coffee shop with the baklavas of Greece. So very good! YUMM! Also, it has a great ambiance to enjoy sipping your coffee and munching on the sweet treats! Don’t think about it anymore! Just come on in and give this Coffee Station a try. I guarantee that you will love it.“

“Amazing assortment of breads! So many great pastries! A nice and relaxing atmosphere with friendly service!“

“Micah was my barista who was very knowledgeable about the espresso machine and the coffee beans used in the process of the French Toast Latte.“

“We had a great time at Jug Band! We drove up to see Kepi Ghoulie play and the space was very inviting. The staff was very nice and seemed really to enjoy themselves. We started out with lavender ice lattes and they were very good. The space was perfect and was able to fill up with people excited to listen to music. It seemed more like a private party where everyone was simply happy to be there. As the show winded down we took a pepperoni pizza to go. With the love and care put into everything else we knew the pizza was going to be good, but honestly we were absolutely blown away by how delicious the pizza was. The overall taste was great, but the dough itself is what really made this pizza stand out as top tier. It was light and airy, but crisp underneath. The flavor was amazing. My wife, daughters, and myself had a great time and will come by for more coffee, pizza, and good energy. Thanks Jug Band!“

“I stopped by this donut place the other morning and it honestly made my day. The moment I walked in, the smell of fresh donuts filled the whole shop. You could tell everything was made fresh because the trays were constantly being restocked.

I ordered a glazed donut and a cup of coffee, and the donut was warm, soft, and perfectly sweet. The glaze had that light crisp on the outside but melted as soon as I took a bite. It paired perfectly with the coffee.

The staff were really friendly too. They greeted everyone who walked in and made the place feel welcoming. It’s one of those simple spots that reminds you how good a fresh donut and good service can be. I’ll definitely be coming back the next time I’m craving something sweet.“

“Coffee, Matcha and teas are amazing. Little pricey but worth it. I've had the Spanish latte and Island matcha which I would come back and get as often as I can. Line is long but move fairly quickly and order cones iut quickly. Lots of outdoor seating that is in the shade. Definitely recommend this place if your looking for good coffee and a place to chill for awhile“

“Cappuccino, espresso, croissant, cornetto, are my favorites, but everything is fresh and delicious! Service and atmosphere is great! Alessandro got it right! Bravo!!“

“I was looking for a bagel spot because my normal spot was closed. The shop is small but it was easy to order early morning (7am) on a weekday.

There are several pastry options - I got the Sourdough bagel with a yummy salmon cream cheese!

It was a good bagel! Not the best bagel but I'd go back to try another!“

“Order the pho and wonton soup - both broths were flavorful and delicious. My Vietnamese girlfriend gave approval for authentic taste and quality.
Interior is well decorated and tastefully minimalistic. Service staff is so kind and attentive. Shoutout to Kian. 🙏🍜“

“Absolutely adorable chill spot. The atmosphere is so cozy and inviting. Luis was so nice and helpful. I didn’t like my original order (my fault, I wanted to try matcha and also wanted to watch my calories so I ordered the matcha and coconut water drink, and it definitely wasn’t for me) Luis kindly offered to make me another drink! Thats customer service right there. Great spot. Vibes.“

“I travel around all of Southern California for work and visit as many new coffee spots as I can. Tot is easily makes my top 3, and realistically I would list it as my favorite in Southern CA. Unique inventive drinks that hit the mark, great beans, great pricing, reward program, awesome staff, a place of community, and a rotating seasonal menu. I've tried many drinks and like them all but end up siding with the Tot cream latte most of the time. Highly recommend.“

“Been going since they were at their old location. Best Mediterranean food in the South Bay. Always love getting their beef shawarma pita. Also must try their date shakes, really taste the quality. I tried copying it at home but can't get the same taste.“

“Love this local coffee spot! Friendly staff, good coffee selection and always great music vibes. ✨ My favorite is the “It’s Bananas”, iced or hot!!!“

“Such a cute and cozy place great for Instagram photos. Yummy latte and homemade muffin ☕️“

“Came here while attending a conference at the Westin, looking for interesting coffee… and they certainly have that here. They had two different coffees on drip and I chose one from Uganda - I think my first time I’ve had a coffee from there. It was quite good. They have coffees from like 12 different countries they roast themselves at another location in bags for purchase. Really nice spaces indoors and out. Definitely recommend.“

“Randomly went here on a Sunday, and I was very pleasantly surprised!

It was a little crowded, but the team moved pretty quickly. You order at the kiosk and I waited only about 10 minutes. Not bad.

I got a brown sugar, Vietnamese coffee. I think that’s what it was called… It was very rich and flavor and fairly priced too!! Will definitely come back to try more.“

“Lots of seating, great atmosphere and coffee and close to a 2nd hand store for a little retail therapy!!“

“Amazing tea, great people, such a safe welcoming atmosphere, and cheap drinks. 5/5 ⭐️“

“My son & I decided to try here for the first time. What a COOL place!!! I love the vibe, the merch, the selections, literally everything about it!!! We will absolutely be back 🥳🥳“

“Their recommendations were fantastic! We had Shakshuka (tomato and eggs) and their Chicken and Mushroom crepe. The flavors weren’t overpowering. Their lattes are delicious and we finished with the red velvet cookie (which tasted homemade!). We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“I only like this place cause it's where my sugar daddy took me so it's low-key“

“Cozy coffee shop with seating available and nice decoration, the staff is helpful and very friendly and you can choose from some amazing pastries, croissant is a must try… easily recommended 👌🏼🥐“

“We had breakfast at Zuzu’s Petals on a Saturday morning and arrived around 8:30 a.m. Parking took a little patience—we circled the block once or twice—but we found a spot within about a block of the restaurant.

There was about a 10–15 minute wait to order. The pace here is definitely relaxed, but that was part of the charm. I was catching up with a friend, and everyone waiting in line seemed to be in a good mood, so it felt more like part of the experience than an inconvenience.

After ordering at the counter, you receive a number and the staff brings your food to your table. The food wasn’t fast, but it also wasn’t excessively slow—it arrived at a comfortable, leisurely pace that fit the overall vibe of the restaurant. We sat on the covered sidewalk patio, which was pleasant and shaded, and by the time we finished, the line had grown all the way around the corner. Clearly this place is popular.

I ordered the skillet with drip coffee. Everything was well prepared and satisfying, and my total came to about $26 before tip, which felt pretty typical for the area.

Our server wasn’t constantly checking in or refilling coffee automatically, but whenever we needed something and got their attention, they were happy to help with a smile.

One thing to be aware of: the restaurant adds a 4% wellness charge to every check, with a note on the menu explaining that it supports employee compensation and wellness initiatives and the entirety of the charge is retained by the company. The menu also states that the charge can be removed if requested.

Overall, Zuzu’s Petals has a welcoming, neighborhood feel with good food and a relaxed atmosphere“

“I had a really great time here and finished my video without any problems. It is definitely a place worth visiting for those who want to balance work and leisure.“

“amazing coffee's, great barista/owner“

“I've lived around the corner from here and barely went for the first time and it was delicious. I got the chop cheese, my wife got the Philly cheese with no lettuce or tomato, fries, curly fries, and we won an order of onion rings by spinning the wheel at the cashier!
Everything tasted really good, I'd go back in a heartbeat.“

“I like to enjoy my favorite White Chocolate mocha and the good people !! They are very servicial with the customers !“

“The best bánh mì and coffee in the world. I recommend it!👏💥❤️“

“Large selection of coffees and teas as well as delicious fresh bake goods and sandwich selections…Beats ANY Starbucks!“

“Cozy and beautiful work space Great coffee. Wrigley Coffee is the Best community coffee shop ever !“

“Amazing authentic baklava. Thank you for sticking it out! 💗💗“

“Everything is amazing 🤩 🤩“

“My wife and I are retired and we both love going out for breakfast. We have been looking for a special breakfast location in the south bay for some time and tried Mr. G's . IT IS BY FAR OUR FAVORITE LOCATION - it is a fun, family owned cafe with an extensive menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can't beat the food, the price and the friendly staff. We are now Mr. G's regulars .“

“Feel the love!! Impeccable coffee made with kind hands - fills the soul! ♥️“

“Cambodian street food in a laid back and easy going cafe. I ended up getting the Phnom Penh noodles. It came with some shrimp and pork and served with rice noodles and a flavorful broth. It’s similar to Pho and just as comforting. It’s located in a plaza so parking can be a bit busy but free at least. Service was a bit slow but it’s family owned and authentic!“
