50 Best Cafes near Signal Hill

“Fun crowed!! Good food!! Good drinks!“

“This Vietnamese spot quietly sits inside a bland strip mall but surprises in every bite. The pho was rich and fragrant, and their pho‑French‑dip banh mi served on Persian bread was unforgettable. I appreciated how inventive yet respectful their flavor combinations stayed. Seating is minimal, but the staff are attentive and efficient. It’s precisely the sort of hidden gem locals appreciate—not glossy, just excellent food“

“nice relaxing atmospuhere“

“Great all around food choices with excellent quality! All the staff are personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Great service with great prices!! Love Appu’s“

“Great food, fabulous service and a great central location make this the perfect downtown location for healthy food in Long Beach!“

“The Mango Bingsoo was alright. The snow didn't hold up very well & became slushy fairly quickly. The mango slices were nice and thin, but I think they are kept in a liquid because they were glossy.

We also got 2 Taiyakis, which is the minimum requirement to purchase. The texture is different from what we're used to. The fillings were good, though!

Bingsoo House is located inside the Super 1 Mart towards the left side of the store as you walk in.“

“The reviews are on point!!! The best cheesecake I've ever had!! It is so rich and creamy, but not overwhelmingly so. So many flavors and they are all delicious!! I buy them to celebrate my team at work, and it is a hit EVERY TIME!!! Thank you Doll Babee's!!!!“

“Family Friendly and quite lovely“

“Stumbled upon this place and had an amazing experience. Their espresso is smooth and gave me steady energy. Lately I've been loving coffee shops that serve in ceramic mugs vs to go cups. It elates the experience imo. I just wish they had more seating and were open a little longer but 10/10 for coffee! Oh and almost forgot, they allow dogs Inside which is a HUGE PLUS“

“This is the best coffee in California!
Hands down !
Get in here and try it as soon as possible .

Parking: Parking is super easy and there is a great park across the road

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly we had our children here as you can see by the photos. There is a fantastic playground across the road for the kids after you get your coffee.“

“AMBIANCE: This coffee shop is small, pretty laidback, and I like their decor & choice of indie music. Honestly I might come in here more to study or relax if I'm nearby.

FOOD/DRINK: Iced ube almond latte - I wasn't expecting it on the menu. Luckily, I was in the mood for ube these past two days so I'm glad I came when I did! It had a pretty purple color on the top and the starchy flavor of ube to cut into the aftertaste of coffee so all things considered, I enjoyed it a lot.

SERVICE: Chris was quick and accomodating for my dairy allergies! He made the latte in a separate steam pitcher and took the time to talk to me about the warming summer weather. Seems like a nice guy, glad he was my barista today.“

“I really like it because the food is good and prices reasonable“

“I recently stumbled upon an adorable little coffee shop, thanks to a quick search on Google. As someone who loves exploring new places, I was immediately drawn to its charm. The shop offered an impressive array of pastries. We decided to try their croissants, which turned out to be light, airy, and perfectly crispy.

The coffee menu, while straightforward, was inviting. However, I noticed that there weren't many options catered specifically for kids. After inquiring, the staff kindly provided us with a variety of alternatives, ensuring everyone could find something enjoyable. One thing we learned was that most sweeteners came with an extra charge.

We faced a minor setback when it took longer than anticipated to receive our drinks. With two orders ahead of us, we found ourselves waiting about 20 minutes. Despite the wait, we would definitely return. The coffee was simply perfect, though next time, we'll be sure to allow ourselves some extra time.“

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

“Everything nice people good coffee“

“Great friendly vibe and delicious food.“

“Great atmosphere, friendly staff! Eleno has been working to support the local community for five years now. Stop by and see for yourself.“

“😍Great Fresh Fruit Juice“

“There are no 2nd competition like Potos Bakery. Cuban families had dreams and their dreams definitely came through. Best bakery intown. Their bakery quality outstanding , service excellent and atmosphere awesome. I would strongly recommend to visit this place and test it out. Keep up the great work 👍“

“The breakfast burrito and orange juice hit the spot this morning. The staff is very friendly and hard working. Why wait for those long coffee drive thru lines? You can pick up your coffee here quickly. Support your local small business in La Palma!!!“

“Stopped into Bliss on my way to get my nails done next door. Got my usual drink—an iced vanilla almond milk latte. This one tasted spectacular and I found out it’s because they make their own vanilla syrup with REAL vanilla beans! Wow! Coming back soon!“

“Lovely experience. The staff were very nice and attentive. The food was really great! I ordered the burger and fries, the ranch on the side is a must! Best ranch ever with the best fries. We came here to celebrate my Husbands birthday and the staff here made it special. 10/10 recommend!“

“So much to say… but ultimately, Colossus in Long Beach is WONDERFUL!! The BEST BLT I’ve ever had. Because they use high quality ingredients! Their Soft-Scrambled Egg Toast is divine. And everything is beautifully fresh. I love their country bread, baguettes, olive cumin bread, dinner rolls… but I have so much more to try Their pastries are scrumptious: Pecan Sticky Bun, Cardamom Bun, Kouign Amann, Financier, Marzipan Croissant, Sea Salt Brownie, OG Chocolate Chip Cookie. It’s all amazing and I’ve brought a number of friends to show off this incredible Belmont Shore Bakery. On Friday nights Colossus serves pizza into the night. Again, high-quality ingredients make their pizzas delicious. Plus they have interesting and unique combinations. They are tip free because their starting wage is $21/hr. Great customer service. Cute little space with some lovely specialty spice mixes, food items, merch, and wine. Indoor and outdoor seating, and they serve tasty coffees and teas. Colossus feels like a little bit of Europe on 2nd Street.“

“I ordered a flat white like an hour ago.

In my opinion what makes this spot good is the type of coffee you get. Im no coffee expert but the taste you get is what I call "classic". That straight up coffee taste you know and love. Everywhere else I go tend to favor the more funky natural process coffees. I love a good funky espresso. But to find this flavor profile in a coffee shop around here, or in LA in general is pretty uncommon.

4/5 stars No Drama ?“

“Food Was Good! I ordered the Chicken Parmesan Pasta it was very tasty! The chicken had a good flavor and the pasta was filling!We picked up a Strawberry Matcha Latte and a Dubai Chocolate Tart on our way out , the latte was just ok for me but the tart was so gooooddd I will be going back to try different drinks on the menu along with different food options also ordering process can improve it felt crowded and servers kept passing by saying excuse me space and seating is limited!“

“We stumbled upon this little café by chance while driving from the airport — and what a hidden gem it turned out to be! I honestly envy the office workers who get to have this place nearby every day.

It's a small café, but everything they serve is top-tier culinary art — the sandwiches, coffee, and salads are absolutely delicious. And the soups… just wow! We tried the pumpkin and broccoli soups — both incredibly tasty and nourishing. My 7-year-old son usually won’t touch broccoli, but he loved their broccoli soup and ate it with great pleasure.

We've only been there a couple of times over the past year, but it’s definitely on our list for every future trip to Los Angeles. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Try their Sandwhich. It is sooo delicious. We enjoyed the food. Very clean and it is very cozy. Loved the ambiance. And the owner is very friendly. I will recommend this place to everyone that want to enjoy getting together with close friends. Mom and daughter bonding will be a fun place to go. Hope to go back again soon.“

“I had to plan a last minute breakfast for a coworker and since I love the breakfast burritos from TMJ Cafe i thought everyone else would too! They had everything ready when I got there and are always so happy and appreceative. Love this place! Oder the Supreme Doughnuts Box they're gorgeous and totally worth it!

Vegetarian options: They have a veggie burrito that is amazing! Just remember to order it without cheese.

Parking: Its a small parking lot, but people come and go very quickly.“

“Delicious!!! Definitely coming back. Great friendly service!…🥰“

“I want to thank a kind attentive young lady who assisting. She promised to follow up with a call when something became available for me. At first I was discouraged because as we all know all agencies always say that when they turn you down, however after a few days Sol called me to inform I was still in her radar and when something became available she would call. It proves to say she is genuinely there to help and is great at what she does. A week later here I am employed! Thank you Sol for all your support! I would definitely recommend this place thanks to you!“

“Everything it is an awesome place to eat at“

“Amazing service & amazing food! Great place to host a meeting or group dinner.“

“the best coffee I've had in long beach so far! came out from Denver and am finding so many queer safe spaces. the massive trans flag was a beautiful surprise for trans day of visibility. also the interior is the perfect blend of warm and aesthetic. plants everywhere, light wood accents, and gorgeous tile 🔥 really loved this spot.“

“I have been trying to get in severally times but fail due to overcrowded not taking reservations. Other than that, good restaurant for breakfast n lunch, closed at 2pm“

“Great Spot! Delicious bagel, Açaí bowl and Coffee- highly recommend!“

“Great food and , great customer service. You feel like home. Love it“

“this little place is a big smack a of bohemian chill factor that emanates from your host, Peter . next , the space, sadly, not enougĥ to contain the magic overflowing out its doors, is a piece of a backstage area with the jibe of all are welcome, from scifi nerds to yuppies on bikes and boomers out for a hike, from runners to walkers, even old folks with a walker, Eco Coffee has the cold drinks to chill ya and hot drinks to warm your core. Good food, fresh made. awsome egg sandwich“

“음료가 맘에 들어요.“

“This is a good choice when you want shave ice dessert the flavors are natural I’m allergic to a lot of colors and they don’t add any additives so if you were sensitive as I am, I has not reacted to anything that I have order there, which is very common with this desert. they had lots of colors this place doesn’t.“

“great service. fun yummy food and reasonable prices. go !“

“great food and amazing coffee! it's always nice to stop in for a bite to eat.“

“Better tasting boba compared to the location in cerritos and delicious macroons. I got the specialty smootie milk and honey with mini boba and egg pudding. It tastes amazing. I wanted to try the Nutella and green tea macroons however they were sold out. I settled for the fruity pebble and I loved it.“

“I've been enjoying their crepes since they were called the Delightful Crepe Cafe and were on Studebaker in Long Beach. I continued coming to them after they moved and changed names because one thing that hasn't changed is how delicious their food is. They are only open until 3 pm so I tend to get food to go, like I did today just before 3. I got their savory and filling chicken marsala crepe, and my favorite, their nutella crepe. Their crepes are light and tender, but what really sets them apart is their amazing sauces. The nutella crepe comes with this berry sauces made with fresh raspberries that is unmatched anywhere. I always ask for extra berry sauce!“

“My partner and I were talking a stroll down our new neighborhood, and quite literally SMELLED the delicious food before seeing this place. It was almost cartoon-like the way we just followed our feet toward the warm buttery smell of a local diner.
We probably got lucky since it was just two of us and spots were available at the counter right when we got in!
We sat down, and were greeted right away with a smile and a fresh pot of coffee. Menu is extensive for such a cozy spot! Health is also highlighted in their menu..plenty of options to enhance the menu to your needs. My partner got the turkey omelette sub egg whites, and I got the French toast combo w/ a side of potatoes (10/10).
The atmosphere is amazing, and we love businesses that highlight artists as well (you can scan under some of the art displayed to learn more).
Service is friendly and efficient.
When you walk-in, you get a sense that you’ve been there before. And that’s a very comforting feeling for a first timer (:“

“lovely and cute cafe. will definitely go back for another boba or ube ice cream. 😊“

“I had the catfish and fries with cornbread it was simply amazing it was so good nice and hot fresh I'll definitely be back again and I will recommend this restaurant to all of my family and friends“

“great food for Hawaiian food“

“Satisfacción 🤤💪🏼 got my dessert fix and cool off happy.“

“If you’re looking for a QUICK pick up spot this is not it, you may need to wait outside for a few and then inside. It doesn’t take too long but it isn’t fast either. It’s definitely worth it! Drinks and desserts are good especially the chocolate chip croissant. The designs are top tier!“
