“My Comadre and I decided to meet up here. She said she loves the hot abuelita drink and I decided to try it myself. It hit the spot at the first sip! Thanks Comadre. She had a ham and cheese croissant sandwich and I had a everything Bagel with cream cheese. Both were freshly made and it was good. To top it off, another friend showed up right before I had to leave for class. Goes to show you, if you want great taste, this is the place.“

“Sloppy as hell and this Wilmington location can never get an order correct and the staff is very sloppy with the orders. I live here in Wilmington and gotta drive to Harbor city McDonald's just to get a good order.I don't recommend this location at all.“

“Sleepy Seal is such a gem of a coffee shop – cozy, warm, and full of character. The space has an artistic touch that makes it feel unique and inviting, and the staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming. I tried the oat milk latte, and it was absolutely amazing – smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. A great spot to relax with good coffee and good vibes.“

“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!“

“Found this little treasure a year ago. I have been back over and over. The service is amazing and the coffee is delicious and always so pretty! The parking is small, but you can easily find parking across the street. Trust me the treat is worth it! 🥰“

“This place is awesome. Really good food, drinks & merch. The only complaint I have is I wish people with their laptops who sit at a 4 top table alone understood how selfish that is when this place is incredibly busy. I always thought cafes should have a time limit for people with laptops or a bar set up on the wall just for people with laptops. You literally are fighting for your life for a table there on the weekends. Will still go though lol“

“cute local coffee shop, friendly & great recommendations“

“The Crepe Heaven Special Crepe was exactly what I was craving! The egg was cooked perfectly. Everything was so fresh and delicious. We also loved the banana almond honey crepe. Best $2.50 coffee ever!!! Clean & comfortable Service was top notch too! Highly recommend!“

“Serendipitously, I saw information about this place when I was randomly scrolling online.
The food was excellent. I ordered two items to go, the avocado toast and a breakfast burrito. (I should have taken pictures because the items were beautifully presented in addition to being delicious! 🤓)
Beautiful atmosphere. The decor is inviting. Very clean.
It fulfilled and then exceeded my expectations.“

“Im excited to write this review of all the rest because this place is what a coffee shop should be! Fast, courteous and very fresh. My vanilla latte was HOT just as i like it. The almond Danish was fresh. Smiles at the first encounter was best customer service I have experienced in a long time. Thank you!“

“I found a fantastic spot to grab a quick coffee ☕ today; it was such a delightful experience! The line moved swiftly, and I didn't have to stand around for ages before getting my caffeine fix. The ambiance was great, making it a perfect place to unwind for a bit. I was especially thrilled to see they had a Battleship 🚢 game available! It was a lot of FUN, bringing back some childhood memories. #CoffeeLover #QuickBite #FunTimes #BattleshipGame“

“Beautiful coffee I lek ….“

“It’s not really great for gluten free but that’s normal for coffee shops. I like the steamers: hot milk of your choice with a syrup of your choice. It was perfect to warm up with after a long day. The music plays softly in the background and you can have a conversation easily. They also use Joshua Tree Coffee which is a great coffee. Service was helpful and polite.“

“Quaint, cozy, comfortable. Honeycake is probably the best I’ve had. Coffee is mediocre but you’re likely coming for syrniki and comforting environment. Great friendly service that makes you want to come back. 3 tables inside and 4 tables outside.“

“My roommate decided to try the coffee after hearing about it through a friend in CA (we are in RI). My roommate says it is by far one of the best coffees he has ever tasted. Very aromatic! Smooth and just, well, a must try! It was also ground well, packaging was great, delivery was on time. Website was easy to use. We'll be back for another shipment!“

“I absolutely love Tot Coffee. Their blueberry cream matcha with oat milk is my favorite drink. It started as a seasonal item but might be on their menu permanently now. My coworker loves the Blue’s Clues signature latte, which has blueberry purée, peppermint, milk, and espresso, and my other coworker switches between the pour-over coffee and cappuccino.

I also love their pastries, especially the spinach pastry, baguette with jam, croissant, and pain au chocolat. Everything we have tried has been delicious.

You can tell the owner is very mindful, which makes for a consistently pleasant experience every time we visit. The drinks don’t change depending on who makes them, and I find comfort in that consistency. I love the café’s minimal but mindful aesthetic. I could sit there all day to work, read, or meet with friends or clients.

The café has a mellow and inviting vibe. They also host the No Bounds Run Club, which is very inclusive for both slower runners like me and faster runners. There is a group that runs 2.5 miles and another that runs 4.5 miles. They meet every Saturday at 7 a.m., and afterwards you get a password for a discount at the coffee shop. You don’t need to sign up, you can just show up. I’m not a consistent runner, but the No Bounds Run Club has made me more consistent because I love the reward of a yummy drink after the run, and I love that someone will walk with me without judgment if I don’t feel like running the whole time.

I love that Tot Coffee is not just a coffee shop but also building a community.“

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

“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.“

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

“The blueberry pinwheel was FABULOUS. Strawberry cheese croissant, prefectly flakey. Amazing bakery, giving fresh-baked, homemade, French-countryside vibes. I don’t often review, but when i find such a good small business I have to. Pricing was good too.“

“great breakfast sandwich“

“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.“

“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. We often share one of the weekday breakfast specials of 2 eggs, 2 sausage links, and 2 french toasts for $8.99. You can't beat the food, the price and the friendly staff. We are now Mr. G's regulars .“

“I went to Chuck's for the first time in November 2025 when visiting Long Beach and I loved it! Beautiful beach front location, excellent customer service (our server Riley was super friendly, efficient, and had great menu recommendations!), and absolutely delicious food. I had a sausage scramble with fresh fruit on the side and my sister had a simple breakfast combo. I can't wait to go back to this place! Highly recommend!! Bonus: outdoor seating for pups.“

“What a hidden gem! Im not a coffee drinker so I look for the other options. Whats great here are..

1. Iced Oolong Ceylon tea
2. Spiced Chai
3. Mango peach passion really

Gonna go back to try other things! The staff is very nice. Support this business!“

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

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

“Very good coffee.
My personal favorite is the mocha..which I have to say is excellent most of the time. Most of the time, because I don't feel like different baristas are trained to make it one specific way. Which is what I want in coffee.. consistency.
Luckily, most of the time it's really good.
I love their patio..its among the prettiest I've ever been to..people don't seem to use it more for some reason.“

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

“So good!! Never misses! Became my favorite spot“

“Great crew serving great coffee.“

“I came here with my boyfriend who is vegetarian, I am not. We both got sandwiches, and I wish I took photos of my food! I got a “chicken” pesto sandwich and it was so amazing. The food was very filling, fresh, and I’m looking forward to coming back. 10/10 - this should be a staple lunch spot for any vegetarian / vegan!“
