Quaint bakery/cafe in the West End of Long Beach with great bread, a tasty food menu and exceptional coffee. Eat-in or grab something quick to-go and you will not be disappointed. While the seating may be limited, the charming decor is very inviting for a sit-in meal. The breakfast burrito (with chorizo) is one of my favorite meals in town - the flavor of the pickled veggies is noteworthy.
Ray and the team make amazing breads coffee and food. Best breakfast and bakery in Long Beach, a real gem and a pillar of the community! Try the BLT, the egg sandwiches, the specials, all are very good. My entire family has been going to Blacksmith for years and we all agree, best place to go in the West End for breakfast or brunch. Takeout is great too
Absolutely amazing! Fresh baked croissant bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. Delicious coffee and super nice staff. My chocolate croissant was added bonus for dessert. A must visit in Long Beach. Ray the owner is a great guy!
Blacksmiths is a gem in Long Beach! I’ve tried every loaf and they’re all amazingly good for sandwiches or spreads. Pick up an iced latte or hibiscus teas, they’re so delicious. The kitchen staff is so friendly and make the atmosphere so homey! Would highly suggest this for a breakfast run or lunch.
Such a warm place ! The croissants are amazing. We got the Linh’s Banh Mi with mushrooms and Egg sandwich on sourdough bread. So good ! The staff is very friendly. 10/10
Chocolate croissant. Sourdough bread. Summertime mint lemonade. Breakfast sandwich. Breakfast burritos. Chocolate & blueberry financiers…. I can go on and on about my favorite things about Blacksmiths.
It’s my favorite-no second best-bakery. But what makes it my favorite are the people. They truly care about the ingredients they use and the food they make. Whether it be breads, pastries, breakfast or lunch meals, it’s all made on site and sourced for their customers.
And I can’t say enough good things about the people that work there. They’re really salt of the earth people.
Fantastic new bread and breakfast spot featuring all coffees by the fabulous Stumptown Coffee Roasters! I had a croissant with my iced coffee and it was seriously one of the best criissants I've ever had that was not in France. Highly recommend! They bake all their breads and desserts on the premisis and in an open kitchen. Love it!!!!
Working on the area & having a rough morning, I was looking for a place to have brunch and after seeing all the great reviews, I decided to give it a try and I’m glad I did! I had an Apple Cider Mimosa that was so good, that I had to order another one to go. For brunch I ordered the Linh’s Banh Mi with chorizo & papas bravas and let me tell you I enjoyed every bite of it! Chef kiss 👌. The ladies up front were so nice & the vibe is warming & welcoming. I just loved it 10/10. I’m from Astoria but would definitely be coming back. In fact I’m stopping back today before they close for another bite and of course another mimosa 😋. JUST AMAZING. Thank you for turning my not so great day into an awesome one.
New to LB and not only are the pastries and other foods are amazing, but the service was great too! They were welcoming and gave my son a cookie on the house. Much appreciated and thank you for the warm welcome.
I've been once for work and once for pleasure. The first time I sampled sourdough and brioche, both excellent. Recently I went back for the cruffin, a pastry from heaven (high praise coming from an atheist). It seems to be pastry dough braided into a buttery knot. Better than a croissant, better than a muffin. All I can say is try it. And if you're not into sweets, house milled grains add a wholesome touch to their entire bread lineup. Stumptown coffee is the caffeine-infused cherry on top. I hung out there for longer than I should have, but I couldn't pull myself away.
