Hot Java

Staff has always been super rad. And their Dirty Bi Chai with oat milk is hands down my favorite coffee drink in the LBC right now.

I've been here a few times and it has been a good experience until my latest visit. Coffee was good, I came to study with my friend and the tables were sticky so we had to ask for a rag to clean it. Also asked for cookies to be warmed up & they came out burnt. The environment was friendly however the only people talking in there was the two cashiers. One of them was sweet and the other seemed bothered when I asked for a rag. Restroom had no soap. I left one of my belongings and tried calling but their phone is out of service. This is a good coffee shop with a great location but I believe they could do a bit better.

Edit: If it wasn't so expensive I'd given 5 stars. I absolutely love this coffee shop, it's very nostalgic for me. Free Wi-Fi, totally unpretentious and the vibe is solid. It's like the opposite of lala land type coffee shops, very old school Long Beach. The coffee is so good, my personal favorite is the Mexican mocha but today I had a dirty chai with coconut milk. Note to self: if you can leave a tip in cash that's better, I don't trust those machines just saying because wow I opened my banking app and was like did I spend $8 for a latte or were there some hidden fees :p

Love everything here, from the casual atmosphere, the muffins/breakfast food, and of course ... the coffee! Everything is ready fairly quickly, and I find myself enjoying speaking to the baristas (who all genuinely seem happy to be working there)! The tofu scramble on Sundays has been a go to, along with their many sugar free syrups you can add to your coffee. They have a great location on the corner, and a short walk to the beach. Plenty of spaces to sit and work, as well!

Love this place and totally recommend! Baristas are great. Nothing that really makes it stand out thus the 4 stars but the pastries are average, croissant won't make you sad and the drinks are well made

This is my neighborhood coffeeshop and I really appreciate this spot. I have come here many times for treats, coffee, and bagels. My go to drink is a caffeinated-extra red eye (either hot or iced) and I do love their danishes. They are so sweet and delicious; love the cheese danish.All the staff are always so sweet here and the indoor space and outdoor patio is easy to work from. Service has always been with a smile and I feel like the staff member have gotten to know my daughter in the times I've come in, so it makes me feel like home everytime I treat myself here!

So I've been trying every coffee shop in Long Beach. This one is located on Broadway and junioeto Ave near the beach and the park. There's street parking and free wifi. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. They got table, counters, and couches. They got a couple of outlets. They use more natural lighting and the door is open, so if you have any allergies, this might not be the place for you. I love that they allow dogs in here and have treats for them. I noticed the crowd in here is more older. They are LGBTQ friendly business. The staff is pretty efficient. I love how they have local art where you can buy and follow the artist. I do like how they close later than the other shops at 6 pm. It did start getting business around 4 pm but during lunchtime it was pretty empty. Also, the pastries are gone in the display. The price for coffee is pretty affordable for about $5ish. I got the iced Mexican mocha as they recommended that being 1 of the most popular item. It's pretty light. Why they lost points is that this cough needs more shots because I'm struggling to stay awake and I keep yawning, so there's not enough caffeine, which rarely happens to me. The other deduction is that the bathroom floor is dirty and needs to be mopped. If there was an option, I would have given this place a 3.8.

I have found my favvvvorite little treat drink here recently, having been an an on and off visitor of Hot Java for a year or so now. I am not a huge coffee buff but have been pining for the Java Blasts (think coffee slushie!) almost daily now because they remind me of a special drink from a spot back home! I love getting the vanilla chai with almond milk and you have the option to add espresso shots or cold brew, but I always opt out.I also really love the bagels and cream cheese here every once and a while for breakfast!They have a large menu of coffee and tea drinks, juices and lemonades too, specials are a lot of fun and a few light bites and snacks as well. They are LGBTQ friendly, close to the park and beach and have indoor and outdoor seating, and a fireplace! Very work space friendly as well although I recently noticed they knixed the couches in place of more tables.I always walk here but there is street parking avail! Next time pop in and try a java blast!

Good coffee. Excellent cinnamon sugar and blueberry muffin. Fantastic service. Amazing location. Huge green park across the street. Very nice dining room. Free parking at the curb. Excellent place for working or studying. Plenty of electric plugs.

What a gem! I ordered a caramel macchiato and it was really delicious! I mean it was goood! Also had a ham and cheese croissant panini and that was yummy too! There's plenty of room inside to hang out and enjoy the coffee! The service was great, friendly people... adventure on my friends!
