This place is a wonderful ma & pa cafe of sensual delights, but there needs work to be done. Nazim has no idea how customer courtesy and complimentary solicitation is provided in the United States, a country obsessed with customer courtesy and complimentary environments. When you have a long time customer who is refused such a gesture of thanks, the pleasure is difused like a firecracker, or simply snuffed out like a candle, and the customer stops giving tips and stops being gesticular. The prices are exorbitant 😵😵💫😵😵💫🤯🤯 $6.00, $7.00, $8.00 for a cup of "specially made" coffee, using ingredients anyone can buy from the grocery store, is technically not a specially made cup of coffee. Peppermint Patty is the name that sounds delicious but there's nothing special about dashing a few splashes of pepperment liqueur into a regular cup of coffee. A single slice of cheese cake is $7.00 plus, when anyone can buy an entire gourmet cheese cake for that price, and enjoy six slices instead of one. A gallon of petrol is almost that much! $7.00 can buy an entire meal at KFC or at Bueno's Italian restaurant or a three piece meal at the chicken shack. The prices at the Library Coffe Shop in San Diego is by far ten times better in its prices, which I have added with a photo. This is how prices should be for coffee and sandwiches and other delicacies.
Great food and service, my one problem is how incredibly crowded it can get! Keep that in mind when coming here, as a seat may not be available for your party. Even if you are just walking in though, the food and drinks are great.
The Library Coffee House is such a cozy cafe! We loved coming here to study and read. There's such a wide array of food and drinks (including Mexican hot chocolate) and fun food items. We did have to stand around for a while waiting for a seat despite the large number of tables - there's are just so many people. But that's indicative of the comfort of the space.
This was a super cool and cute spot! Loved the service, atmosphere, coffee and pastries! The staff was so nice and patient with new customers!
Where do I start?!?!? It's such a great feeling to find a gem in a big city like Long Beach!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED our visit to this cozy spot! I WILL DEFINITELY take a trip again to visit here!! I live about 40 min away and I think it's TOTALLY worth your time and money!! If you EVER get a chance to check this place out? DO IT!! you will NOT REGRET IT!! It's a unique place to visit, go on a hike at the beach then visit. Go watch the sunrise then visit. Impress your special someone on a first breakfast date! Visit with your friends and family. Take your books to study or just chillax, I promise you, you will enjoy it!! The food tasted amazing, even though I just had a breakfast croissant and regular coffee, the croissant tasted freshly baked fluffy and flaky like I love it. The eggs were equally fluffy and the bacon on point! Coffee was perfect, not crazy strong that would cause my hair to straighten or not too light that it wouldn't give me the caffeine kick I need. The ambience is so soothing and serene, perfect for feeling at ease and tuned into a good conversation, or a good book.🥰🥰 I wish that I'd live close to it, it would easily become my favorite spot to visit. The people that work there (seemed to me) slightly serious but they offer great service and are very professional. They were also genuine, helpful and generous. When we walked in it was very early in the morning around 6:30ish. We were greeted with the aroma of coffee and freshly baked bread or pastries. We realized that there were some hot, right out of the oven, chocolate croissants,. You could see some steam coming out and some melted chocolate on the sides.🤤🤤 I will definitely have some the next time we go. 😋😋 We made a big order and, unlike big chain restaurants, they got our order perfect on one try! So, if you ever want to check out this awesome place, PLEASE DON'T HESITATE and GO!! I hope you like it as much as I like it now! 🥰🎉😋💖
