Local Grind Coffee + Cafe
5933 E Spring St, Long Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Local Grind has built itself into a genuine neighborhood anchor in Long Beach where regulars keep coming back for the reliably solid coffee and welcoming vibe—the kind of place where baristas know what they're doing and the atmosphere actually feels worth lingering in. Beyond the dependable espresso drinks, they're experimenting with creative signatures like their Mexican Horchata Latte and showing real care with their bagel sandwiches, though the kitchen can be inconsistent on items like croissants and timing during busy stretches. It's the type of casual, family-friendly spot that works equally well for a quick coffee run or settling in with your laptop for hours, backed by years of loyal customers who clearly appreciate the people behind the counter.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I came by since I wanted coffee and something to eat. I got an iced chai latte and a turkey sandwich. I would definitely recommend this place. They have a variety of drinks and food.
I had a Mexican Horchata Latte and a "Local's Only" everything bagel sandwich. The latte did not have too strong of a coffee flavor, which I enjoyed. I didn't really taste the horchata in the latte, but it's probably why the coffee taste wasn't too strong. The bagel of the…
