Crema's Take

Ubuntu's expansive al fresco patio is where Long Beach's dog-friendly crowd gathers for leisurely weekend brunches and sunset dinners, complete with house-made almond milk lattes and a full kitchen that goes well beyond typical café fare. The vibe is genuinely relaxed and conversational—music is perfectly pitched, staff are attentive, and tables linger for hours—though you should know prices lean premium and the indoor seating is minimal. If you're willing to pay for a full breakfast experience and decent weather, this is a neighborhood favorite worth the repeat visits.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly.

This place has good reviews so was curious. It's expensive for a regular to mediocre omelet. The texture seemed a little too gooey. They make their own almond milk so their latte doesn't contain any added sugar at all, which is good. Good service. There's free parking at the…

Ubuntu is my favorite eatery in Long Beach. I go there at least once a week—whether for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner. Some people don’t realize how romantic and delicious dinner is at Ubuntu. Unlike ordering at the counter during the day, at night the friendly and…
