Crema's Take
“Gaucho Café throws a genuinely fun beach party vibe with loud music, excellent ceviche, and a rooftop patio that feels like the social hub of Long Beach's waterfront. The staff genuinely cares—they'll hunt you down to seat you in the best spot—though service can be frustratingly slow when it gets busy. If you want a lively, dog-friendly spot for long brunch hangs with friends rather than quick coffee, this is your place.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly.

Food is fine, but service is so bad its almost not worth it. It took 30 mins to get a draft beer, and an hour to get our entrée. The restaurant was not that busy and we had at least 3 different servers coming in and out of our table. We watched 3 groups get up and leave…
This beach side restaurant was really good. Awesome vibe, good staff, and tasty food. Very pet friendly and they bring trays of water for the dogs. Great view right on the bike path over out at the harbor and islands. Definitely would recommend.
They had the rooftop patio closed off when we arrived so at first we opted to sit at the bar. The manager came and found us moments later to invite us up there to sit which was so nice, he wasn't even the guy we initially spoke with so the staff attention to detail and…
Fun and young, with great food to boot. This place is like a party on the beach. We loved it. Very loud music but if you don’t mind, you’ll have a most delicious time here with your friends.
