Reviews
I don’t think they have a restroom, but there is one in TJ’s.
I find myself coming back time and time again, craving that delicious coffee. If you haven’t tried their Vietnamese coffee yet, you’re missing out! Highly recommend!
There wasn’t much of a selection of cakes and pastries.
There’s seating outside and a restroom inside.
It’s a great place to visit either before or after your Trader Joes shop, which is conveniently located next door.
ITEM’S ORDERED:
VTM (Original Vietnamese Coffee)
VTMatcha (Vietnamese Coffee + Matcha)
TASTE:
The VTM here is well made & what I expect from a good Vietnamese coffee. Strong dark roast coffee flavor balanced out (not overtaken) by the sweetness of condensed milk. Coffee strength is quite present so I could see this maybe being too strong for some people. I do see they also offer a lighter version as well. Towards the middle/end it did get somewhat too sweet & creamy for me, but I am a big strong coffee fan.
VTMatcha is exactly what the name implies. For the matcha fans, the ratio of matcha to coffee is on the matcha side. & On the 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 me was kind as well. Just FYI, they don’t accept cash.
It’s a pretty small interior with no inside seating. Pretty sure it’s not just a covid thing since I don’t see where they’d even put inside tables/seats. Looks like there were 3 tables outside. Interior is a simple, clean look which is still inviting. I like how the ceilings are high to make the small place seem larger.
This BLKdot 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:
Little bit pricey here since you are buying from a newer/modern coffee shop in a nicer area. The VTM was basically $6 while the VTMatcha was basically $7.
BLKdot is under the same “umbrella” as the popular 7 Leaves, if you’ve ever been. I would say this coffee here is stronger (but similar flavor) than the house coffee at 7 Leaves. Which makes sense since the VTM does not have the sea foam to subdue/counter balance the coffee strength.
It they used crushed ice I’d be even happier. Just makes it that much better to me. Pretty sure most of my 7 Leaves drinks have had crushed ice. They need to bring that here!
They use bamboo straws which hold up much better than paper & are more eco friendly than plastic. I like this.
Could you find a similar (maybe better?) Vietnamese coffee at a more “mom & pop” location for lower cost? Yes
Could you serve the VTM to your Vietnam born auntie & they’d give it the stamp of approval? Yes
Would your Vietnam born auntie approve of this price? No
Would I come here again? Yes
