Reviews for Blk Dot Coffee in Long Beach, CA
Tried the VTM and it was good, a little too strong for my liking but thankfully I also got the Dulce VTM? Something like that?... That one was a little softer and sweeter so I enjoyed it. I think it?s a cool spot with lots to choose from, I?ll be coming backfor more. Read more
VTM is way tooooooo sweet, and they can?t change the sweetness level. Also, the cashier was impatient.
I love you place but today I noticed your employee violating some health code violations. Eating, touching hair, touching... clothes and all without washing their hands while making my drink. I was a trainer in a restaurant before my current job so Ithought is let you know before anyone that matters notices. Read more
In avocado Yost only bred part was good. Thin COLD sliced avocado, 4 pieces of little tomatoes on top. No nothing to add.... Disgusting and money and Sunday morning wasted. The breakfast bowl was better. Read more
Blk Dot does VTM Coffee right!! And the breakfast offerings are delicious, although definitely not VTM food ????
Mask police! Right when we walked in the door we were hit with the order of putting on our masks. I won't shop in places that... force you to do this or leave. Which was pretty much the ultimatum we were given. CDC is recommending N95 masks which the crewdidn't have on. If you want to be safe, do it right. I'd suggest getting your bubble tea at a place that doesn't force thepopular mask trend of today's radical leftist agenda. Read more
Don't let the modern decor fool you. This local OC chain is serving up some authentic Vietnamese Coffee aka VTM. ITEM'S... ORDERED: VTM (Original Vietnamese Coffee) VTMatcha (Vietnamese Coffee + Matcha) TASTE: The VTM here is well made & what Iexpect from a good Vietnamese coffee. Strong dark roast coffee flavor balanced out (not overtaken) by the sweetness of condensedmilk. Coffee strength is quite present so I could see this maybe being too strong for some people. I do see they also offer alighter version as well. Towards the middle/end it did get somewhat too sweet & creamy for me, but I am a big strong coffeefan. VTMatcha is exactly what the name implies. For the matcha fans, the ratio of matcha to coffee is on the matcha side. & Onthe plus side the earthy matcha flavor is not lost. So it comes together with the Viet coffee to make a tasty drink. SERVICE,LOCATION, & PARKING: Service was very good right when we walked in. Cashier was friendly & the girl who gave the drinks to mewas kind as well. Just FYI, they don't accept cash. It's a pretty small interior with no inside seating. Pretty sure it's notjust a covid thing since I don't see where they'd even put inside tables/seats. Looks like there were 3 tables outside. Interioris a simple, clean look which is still inviting. I like how the ceilings are high to make the small place seem larger. ThisBLKdot is located Marketplace Long Beach (corner of PCH & 2nd Street) with several other businesses (Trader Joe's, Veggie Grill,etc). There's ample amount of parking & I found a spot right in front on an early Saturday afternoon. FINAL THOUGHTS: Littlebit pricey here since you are buying from a newer/modern coffee shop in a nicer area. The VTM was basically $6 while theVTMatcha was basically $7. BLKdot is under the same "umbrella" as the popular 7 Leaves, if you've ever been. I would say thiscoffee here is stronger (but similar flavor) than the house coffee at 7 Leaves. Which makes sense since the Read more
