Black Ring Coffee Roasters

Okay, this is the spot for me. Any time I visit a new city, I seek out a coffee roastery. I can't get down with the evil mermaid and I prefer to support locally owned and operated businesses.

We are staying about 15 minutes away from this shop and we drive down on a Friday morning to get caffeine and this shop is super funky and cool.

The coffee roaster is in the back and the fact that they roast the coffee in house is a huge plus in my book.

The man with the plan was extremely precise with every movement, every drink was made with love and everything was delicious.

They have a traditional coffee menu, which is my jam and they have a specialty menu for those who are a bit more adventurous.

I ordered a cortado and it was absolutely wonderful. Creamy and tasty, low acidity and just a fantastic drink.

Espresso shot was breweed to perfection. Coffee grounds weighted first, fluffed and tampered just perfectly.

I'll come back for sure!

Good artisanal coffee roasted in house and meticulously made. They literally weigh the amount of ingredients to ensure quality and consistency. They also bottle their own cold brew and make their own syrups from scratch. Need I say more?

coffee is awesome! 👍 such a foam that is difficult to find in other cafe and bars! This place has become my favorite❤️. but 50% my time I do not go there, choose other places, because there is not enough to eat (like hot sandwich) other than sweet. I have to choose other places for example for a quick breakfast to go, also those where the coffee is less tasty

Drinks are good but very frustrating to place a mobile order, go to pick it up at the time I'm given, and have the batista fully ring up and help other people while not acknowledging me at all and show no urgency whatsoever. My drink was ready 20 minutes after the pick-up time I was given, and I was late back from my work break.

Don't have a mobile ordering system if you're not going to make it until 15 minutes after I show up to pick it up anyway.

Love this spot! Ordered a Whiskey Vanilla Iced Latte and it was the tastiest coffee drinks I have ever tasted. The flavors were great and not overly sweet nor artificial at all, and I loved how I could still taste the delicious deep earthiness of the coffee, with the sweet whisky cream on top of it- like different layers of flavor....that is straight up gourmet style! Definitely fair prices for what you get, and the place just feels good, friendly, and has awesome energy, plus the Barista was so helpful and welcoming. They've definitely got it right here, thank you all for the delicious coffee and great service - your hard work is appreciated 😁

Great little spot in North Long Beach! Love their Matcha Lattes with Oat Milk! They also have a parking lot in the back.

Definitely worth a stop to try this little spot!
Delicious small batch craft coffees, very 3rd wave approach. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Beans roasted in house. I’ll be back for sure!

I used to LOVE their honey oat lattes (I've bought here for my team, made a few converts) and now it's watered down 🥺. Here's to hoping they return to the old recipe, because it was HEAVENLY.

Also, I shop at the nearby stores too and it seems BRC is callous with how they interact with the old businesses on parking 😬 it was awkward to see an interaction about it this past week.

Delicious coffee ☕️ friendly staff, space is bright and welcoming, beautiful art 🖼 prints on the wall for sale and other goodies to take home or give away as gifts 🎁

The Whiskey Vanilla Latte has to be one of the best things on their menu. I have had this beverage both iced and hot, and it’s delicious no matter how you take it. A great local spot for coffee.
