My friends and I frequently come here to chill, talk, gossip, and either draw/work on our laptops. we also like to get tea and desserts, and the occasional panini. their hot chai tea latte is to die for, absolutely delicious and one of my fav drinks! weve come here so many times now, and will continue to do so. great cafe.

Great place to hang, chill, or study. Staff is great and they have quick service too. I waited no more then 5 min for my cake and drink to come out. Highly recommend if you need to get out and relax or hit the books with a snack.

This is the REAL BAGEL DEAL! Had to do a high five n a friendly Happy Tuesday before I placed my order. It was awesome. The bagels were super greasy with a great variety of different flavors. All kinds of sandwiches. I had the East Coast breakfast bagel. Egg, Swiss cheese n a fresh bagel. Deluscious. The atmosphere is very much friendly local coffee shop. The coffee smelled great. Supe friendly, super fast. Highly recommended.

The green tea crepe cake is sooo good! Just a really cute quaint place. Surprised this place wasn’t busy. It’s really good and staff is super sweet

Great place to meet or study. Friendly staff and owner. Good turkey pesto panini ... basil and pressed toasted bread w cheese! Good ice blended misugaru. Free wifi.

My friend found this place on Yelp and the name caught our attention. Its a mix of Korean and Italian fusion with gelato and coffee drinks. The café is styled modern and theres plenty of tables and chairs to study or hang out. Some of the tables have chargers to plug your phones and laptops to be there for a few hours working. There is a lot of menu items as they offer both lunch, drinks, and dessert. I didnt want to order a lot of sweet stuff but just a chocolate frappe. The order did take a long time to make. There was only one worker making all the drinks. The frappe was okay, but it felt a little too sweet. It was full of chocolate with a faint taste of coffee. They have a water dispenser available so that was good.

This place had nice and interesting desserts. It had a variety of desserts and drinks.

Nice place to chill/relax and to get a good dessert or a refresher

How could you refuse to take a look or dive in on these? Looked very delicious wasn’t it? Yes! I know. It was so good and creamy when you put it in your mouth. Let it stayed there for a minute and slowly swallow it. Dang, it was good.

Affogato with coffee ice creamThe best decision i have evr made

Came here once before and the place, service, and food/drinks was good. Having the same experience again today. Happy with the quality of service, and its a nice place to study and get work done.

The service was good. Free Wi-Fi which is helpful when doing homework. There are plenty of tables. Seems like a place where students meet up to finish projects or discuss schoolwork. The waffles were not freshly made so that was disappointing. They had a sugar coating that was really sweet. The Americano coffee offset the sweetness of the waffle. They have a variety of food, so Ill have to try something else next time I go. The selection of coffee was godd and it was a modest price. They have bathrooms that are kept clean and fully stocked.

First time here, and overall I have to say this place has a pretty relaxing environment. The coffee is good was really and decently priced. I do have to say that my only gripe about the place is that tables are way too small for me, but then again Im a big dude. Other than that I would recommend this place as a hangout spot or even to get some work done.

Great coffee with properly made espresso coffees and foamed milk that is not burnt and overheated like you get at many chain coffee shops.

Good ambiance, free WiFi, and a lot of options to pick from. I wanted to get boba with my Thai ice tea but they don’t do boba til after 11 I believe they said. So I went with a hot chocolate instead. I was hoping they’d served it in a glass mug with the whipped cream visibly on top. It came in a to-go cup.I also ordered a Nutella waffle. Too dry for my taste... the waffle texture was that closer to a harder muffin which the Nutella didn’t help it’s case (and I love Nutella). Well at least they got drinking water near the utensils to grab from.

The coffee here is like their service - mediocre. Their service members aren’t particularly friendly or welcoming, and I don’t get the feeling they’re happy to wait on us. Looking forward to better coffee and better customer service elsewhere.

The individual sized waffles are scrumptious and the coffee is delicious. The seating is really conducive to a laptop set up and group seating. Nice open space and good service. Perfect spot for study groups and novel writers alike!

Great food and drink selection and even when busy it’s not too noisy like some coffee shops. Parking is easy and the staff is friendly. It’s a nice place to study or get some work done!

Nice and quiet place.

Terrific addition to lb! Hidden away, cozy, bright and clean with great coffees and sweets. Friendly staff and good parking. Drop in for a waffle with cream or a shaved berry ice, or a delicious latte.

I had a working meeting. The place was calm enough for us to hear each other. Which I appreciate a lot! The almond hazelnut latte was perfect to my taste! Definitely coming back

Great service, great food and ambience and the coffee was great. Was there for a few hours to study and get some paperwork done. A really cute spot to hang out

We stopped in for coffee, which was really good! We got the Hazelnut Lattee and the Lavender Latte. They were both very mellow in flavor, but you can really taste the lavender, which was great. We also got gelato, mint chocolate chip, Strawberry, and Vanilla Bean. The mint and Vanilla were definitely the best. Staff was very nice, and the store was clean.

Visually appealing, delicate flavors, and sweet company. What more could you ask for?Their purple sweet potato ice cream had a perfect lightness to it and wasnt overly sweet. Highly recommend!

Dang the everything is good here... Love their espresso... So fragrant and tasty and well done... All the sweets are hard to pass off. Bakery is on point. Theyve got smoothies and shaved ice and thick sweet toast and crepe and cheesecake and and and small plates (sammiches). Very nice atmoshphere. Quiet chill study.

Good variety of food and drinks. Prices a bit high. Very hot inside tho all summer and the worst wifi in the world perhaps. Asian owned and mostly patronized by Asian college students, well-behaved.

Friendly staff, good food and drink, and a great place to get work done. I love coming here!

Super good Misugaru drink, croissant, nice facility, and friendly owners.I’m glad I found this place for a meeting with a colleague.

Favorite cafe for CSULB. Afternoon sun can get intense, but wonderful coffee and much more too! Dont order the smores brownies. I want them all.

Awesome place but wifi is so so SO slow! Good luck trying to open even the smallest PDF from your email.

Its new and different. Def go here for sweet potato serve. The bingsoo are too sweet.

Nice place to relax, have coffee... ECT. A friend of mine and I have a little bible study there.

Great coffee great people and they have POWER PLUGS for your lifestyle needs.

This is the second LB cafe that Ive visited this week.Pros:Friendly staffTasty coffeeLots of seatingQuietFree WiFiPower outletsEasy parkingCons:Slow WiFi 😩Ill come back again to try the waffles, but Ill need to find another place to work.

Very good, would be better if they offered mugs instead of to go cups

Had their expensive spicy chicken sandwich which was not spicy. I am confused how buffalo sauce is spicy. I just did not buy it. I expected more for the money I paid. The french roll was nice and the thick chicken breast was too. The spread was ok. But I only got two jalapenos that tasted like dill pickles. The sauteed bean sprouts did not make any sense. I got too many onions. I honestly wonder why I got a ridiculous amount of them. The mixed green salad with some long peanuts and some sweet balsamic vinaigrette was enjoyable. I would absolutely never order this again. I also plunged to spend further to get a large hot caffe latte for the road. As a home barista myself I got nothing but big bubbled foam on the latte. But the taste of the espresso had a long lasting aftertaste which I liked.👎🤡👎

Love Caffe Bene. Bulgogi sandwich, bowls, gelato and even macarons are served up here.Great place for studying and lunching as the space has a relaxed calm vibe. And the coffee is good

Great coffee and service

Vary good food and service.

Very clean, fast, and friendly. Super cute, and the drinks and food are delicious. Reasonably priced too.

The service was good. Free Wi-Fi which is helpful when doing homework. There are plenty of tables. Seems like a place where students meet up to finish projects or discuss schoolwork.

Could be easy 5 Start but their Internet is super slow, even when no customers there.. Also there reward system gives you only drip coffee even you buy only expensive things there.. hmmm

Food/coffee was delish but the Wifi was very slow and spotty. Too slow to stream music or send emails.

Good food. Bulgogi sandwich was good!

Great service. The iced latte was what I would expect.

Love this coffee chain, no matter which location i go they always are on top of their game ! #recommending

Great coffee, desserts, and food! Really nice space to work and relax! They have WiFi too.

Cheese cake are good but Customer Service need work. Not welcoming at all.

Super chill, and incredibly nice staff.

The food was great and reasonably priced.

Great place WiFi is terrible. OMG lol and the prices are too high.

My wife turned me on to Caffé Bene, and this is absolutely the best coffee shop Ive ever been to. My wife loves a traditional Korean drink served here called Misugaru, and thats what got us coming here, but you just cant go wrong with this place. Ice cream, coffee, pastries, macaroons, juices, they have it all, and everything Ive had so far is good.Misugaru is supposed to be some kind of healthyish drink made from different grains, if you were curious.The only negative here is that the seats and tables are kind of small, but I get the aesthetic theyre going for, so its not a dealbreaker for coming here, just dont expect big Starbucks couches.

Good food, coffee and great atmosphere...something Long beach needs.

Nice and quiet place to enjoy the morning

Kind staff, clean place. Mainly sanwiches for each meal time

Good coffee and their scoops of gelato are huge!

First time here, and great place to study. Will come back soon

Good food but a bit expensive. The coffee is great, not too strong or bitter.

Cozy place, good coffee.

I go to Caffe Bene to get some work done. Food, snacks, WiFi, background music.

Nice menu, but a bit pricy. I like the selection of desserts.

Nice and friendly people and staff

Great coffee and nice sweets.

Very good Korean style Cafe

Good fresh strong coffee.

Food taste good

Great place to study minus the sluggish internet.

Comfortable, pleasant, good pastries

Great always
