Colossus

Get the chocolate almond croissant! So good! 😍 First time in San Pedro and I had to stop here for a quick (and friendly) breakfast! Good variety of pastries! And like I said, the chocolate almond croissant was delicious. The almond paste was very tasty and the chocolate was yummy!

Apparently this little place has been hiding out for over a year. I had no idea that something like this existed in San Pedro. I’ve been here my whole life and I’ve always really disliked, even hated, the coffee shops that are in San Pedro. This is necessary for coffee connoisseur‘s like myself. They have great, no amazing, pastries. The coffee quality is really good and it is not watered down Because they know what they’re doing. Overall I give this place a 10 out of 10 easy. Even though I have a $600 coffee machine at home, I still leave the house once a week to come and get coffee from Colossus. And a burrito from next door. I’m updating my review because this is my favorite place. Not only is Coffee completely wonderful but so is the staff. This location reminds me that I live in a community that matters. They remember my name they remember what I order they’re very friendly and consistent I love this place more than a review can even Express. All of their pastries, and their bread are incredible as well. I’ve never gotten anything from here that I don’t like.

I first encountered Colossus in Long Beach and decided to check out this smaller, OG location. The shop is cute and the staff is very friendly, great vibe overall. I had a butter croissant and a cherry pistachio danish, the croissant dough is flaky and tasty, making these pastries a delight to savor. I also had a bread loaf and enjoyed it at home over a few days.

I love supporting small business and what I love even more is small businesses that are so friendly and delicious. Get the scone! Melt in your mouth happiness. Their seasonal syrups are also really great. I got the caramel lavender syrup in my iced coffee and I loved it.

I usually get my morning coffee here and the baristas are always very welcoming and kind. Highly recommend the Iced Honey Lavender Latte. The croissants are also fantastic.
