LUV Collective

Super cute caffe and we had a first date there. Still going strong ‍‍Coffee was great and had some specialty syrups.

3.5 stars overall Pros:- friendly barista - clean and spacious interior with plenty of seating in addition to their outdoor area Cons:- Coffees were not piping hot. It was a cold morning and I would have liked my Americano to be hot. - very small cup sizes (for $5) with no larger option available? - weak to mild flavoring

This was my first time going into this cafe...and my last. I bought a surprise bag via the "To Good to Go" app. Lighter haired lady was unfriendly. No "Hi", "Welcome", "thank you" etc or even smile. For the $5.38 total, I got a slightly burned cookie, 2 croissants and a tiny scone that were just thrown into the bag.. Other places give a much more (I've been using Too Good to Go for well over a year.). That's my first and last time going there.

Great locally owned coffee shop in HB! They roast all their coffee beans and have some really fun seasonal flavors - couple that with their delicious bagels and cream cheese and this was the perfect place to refuel after my birding hike.With their central HB location, it was easy to find after hiking at Bolsa Chica. I tried their seasonal Strawberry Latte and it was delectable!! Great balance of prominent strawberry flavor and it partnered well with the house-roasted coffee blend they used. And I really enjoyed my jalapeño cheese bagel - with more cream cheese on top of course lol. It was toasted perfectly and had excellent texture and flavors. They have a lot of pastry variety in their pastry case too! Prices are what you'd expect for the area and the quality is there.The shop has cute SoCal beachy vibes, and encourages bonding over their board games, just chillin and watching the world go by, or even getting some work done. They have some indoor seating at tables or even at a bar top where you can watch them roasting the beans! They also have a small outdoor seating area.They have a small parking lot so it can be chaotic when it's high season but they're also street parking and it's easy to find. Staff are very friendly and eager to help - I'll definitely be back by to try more flavors next time I'm out there birding!

Details.. .. Dropped by to grab a quick lunch to go around noon on a Thursday. .. Ordered a lavender matcha & a surfside bagel 2.0prOs.. .. Small private lot, but enough for a mostly grab & go coffee shop. .. Service was great. .. My order came out quickly & everything was delicious.cOns.. .. If you're driving south on PCH, the store is a bit hard to spot as it's more of a standalone shop.

Amazing little coffee shop in the heart of Seal Beach perfect for bikers and beach walkers. The location is amazing, you park right there next to the shop. I got an avocado toast and an iced vanilla latte and they were amazing. We will come back every morning. Happy Yelping!

After a few more trips to LUV, I have to say that the avocado toast has been a bit spotty. Twice it was mind-blowingly amazing, once it was a bit of a let down with thinner cut bread and less avocado. On my last visit, the menu had changed so the avocado toast no longer had tomatoes, which was disappointing. Instead it had hemp seeds (fine, but not really necessary), pickled onions (a hard pass from me), and lemon pepper. I was stoked about the lemon pepper bit as I had previously requested they add lemon juice to help bring out the flavor of the avocado, and I use lemon pepper at home, BUT!!! There was so much lemon pepper that I could barely finish my toast. Hopefully that was just a one-off mishap.

One of my favorite local spots! I get a chai latte and it's one of my favorites, not too sweet, just enough spice. They also have great food, and an awesome light ambiance. Super accepting spot, and the staff is always very kind. Don't pass this place up when you are in HB Or Seal Beach- way better than Starbucks.

Super nice people that took my order and made my drink. The inside is so cute, homey, and comfortable. My drink was absolutely fabulous. It was the peach latte and I have never had a latte like it and so delicious.

I really enjoyed the mocha and sandwich (honey italian), the ambiance is very relaxing and the customer service was great!
