Zuzu’s Petals
801 E 3rd St, Long Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into a humble Long Beach corner, Zuzu's Petals punches way above its weight with thoughtfully crafted beverages and surprisingly excellent baked goods that taste nothing like they came from a grocery store shelf. The intimate, cute setup creates a genuinely happy vibe where attentive servers and great music make lingering over coffee feel like the whole point, even if you'll need to hunt someone down when you need a refill. It's the kind of place where the care in every cup and pastry more than makes up for the tight parking situation outside.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

We weren’t sure about the parking situation, but we were able to find a spot a couple of blocks away and walked. There was a line of people at the restaurant, and there was a signage as to how to order, pay and find a seat. We probably waited 10-15 minutes (it wasn’t a long…
Parking is always a challenge in downtown Long Beach-- just give yourself an extra 10-15min. Wait in line wasn't too bad, about 15-20min. Ordered the Skilet, without the potatoes (I'm on keto) and the Chagaccino which is made with monkfruit sweetner--totally keto friendly! Food…
