Everything sells out fast, cold hard pastries, ridiculous line all the time and this place will charge you 75 cents fee because you asked your drink to be iced. Every other cafes in town will warm up the pastry for you.

Really delicious, unique bread and pastries. Masa madre for the win! They are also so nice. I came in today for the first time with my baby daughter. They helped me with the door and brought my coffee to me outside. It made me feel so welcome.

Naturally leavened loaves that vanish quickly—set an alarm. The pan de coco is subtly sweet, and the seeded sourdough is a weekly staple. You can smell the bakery from half a block away. Staff is cheerful even during rush. Coffee’s solid too, so it’s a one-stop breakfast.

Super friendly and very attentive staff, but the true magic comes from their bread and pastries, which are just all amazeballs.

Popped into Gusto Bread on 4th Street adorable little spot, definitely low-key vibes. The line wasn't long, but you could tell people were excited to be there. I had a ham-and-cheese croissant and one of those pastries from the Nixtamal Queen that everyone seems to be raving about the croissant was flaky, cheesy, messy (a good kind of messy), and that Nixtamal pastry was sweet, chewy, and just completely different in a very positive way. I got the feeling it was a little neighborhood gem not pretentious, just good with complete confidence

Gusto has been a staple in our house for many years. Ana and Arturo have created a community of people who love incredible baked goods and appreciate their creativity. I remember my first bite of Gusto bread at James Republic; the texture, taste and crust were beyond great! Since that night, our family always asks for us to bring Gusto bread for gatherings.

Whenever people ask me what are some places I recommend in Long Beach, I always include Gusto. Gusto is a family favorite for us, there’s not a single item that isn’t delicious. It’s very difficult for me to pick a favorite, so come with a few people so that you can try everything :) The team here is super friendly and the shop is cute. You can really feel when owners pour love into what they do and Gusto is an example of that.

Gusto Bread is authentic and delicious and their team is genuine and a delight. Nixtamal Queen... everything is incredible but, at a minimum, get the Nixtamal Queen. But I don't know why you would get only one thing!

It’s hard to find the words to explain how much I love Gusto! My partner and I’s Sunday morning trips for pastries and weekly bread have truly been the joy of my adulthood for the past few years. It’s a bakery you can tell was built out of love and with such a unique perspective. Just about everything on the menu is phenomenal, but our regular rotation includes the nixtamal queen, Pastelito, medialuna, crostinis, the cheddar and jalapeño bollilos (we use these as burger buns and they are 💯) and pan de maiz! Not to mention, many of their seasonal specials are some of my favorite menu items too so keep an eye out on special holidays!
Not only is the food quality sensational, but the service, branding, design, and environment of the space are top notch to match. You can also see what a great space it is by how long most of their staff have worked there, and how lovely they all are with their customer service despite how slammed they usually are with business! You’ll usually find a line out front, but I promise you it’s fully worth the wait. Gusto turned us into bread and pastry connoisseurs so we now love trying bakeries wherever we travel, however Gusto continues to strongly remain our fave, and we feel so grateful to have it nearby!

Some of the best sourdough I have ever ever had the pleasure of eating! Even if you’re in town for just one day, you need to stop by Gusto!

Overpriced but if you need a place to meet-up, chill out then this could be a place. I bought a drip black coffee & pastry for $15. Seating inside has 4 tables & maybe 10 chairs, outdoor seating is a bit better with umbrellas.

Usually a line as they used to sell the bread at Olives but now I am over at the main shop. Great bread if you have time to stop. Street parking so I rode my bike here.
