I'll be honest, when I first pulled up to Eggspresso, I wasn't immediately sold. Located in an industrial/business area of Fullerton, it isn't the type of place that instantly catches your attention from the outside. In fact, if it weren't for the photos I saw on Yelp, I probably would have driven right past it. The pictures gave me enough confidence to give it a try, and I'm glad I did because my expectations ended up being completely exceeded. The restaurant itself is small

Some places feed you. Some places serve great coffee. And then there are places like Ubuntu Neighborhood Cafe that remind you what hospitality feels like. What was meant to be a quick breakfast turned into an entire afternoon spent enjoying incredible food, connecting with people, learning the story behind the cafe, and soaking in an atmosphere that made it difficult to leave.

I had the pleasure of dining at Luna Bistro Café in Long Beach off PCH . I came here with my friend for some much needed mommy/ girl time. Luna Bistro is located inside a shopping center near Target, and you would never expect it to be there. It’s tucked away in the corner, making it a true hidden gem restaurant in Long Beach. ✨ First Impressions We arrived around 2 PM right when happy hour started.

Monday–Friday: $4 mimosas 🥂 Now THIS is how you do brunch. I came here with a friend to talk career, content, and life but from the moment we walked up, I already knew this spot was going to be something special. It literally feels like someone turned their home into the cutest café… and I loved that immediately.
