Entertainment & Activities

I love petting the sharks while having a glass of wine! It's a great place to spend a morning or afternoon. If you're in town on Friday night, check to see if they're still offering Free Fridays from 6pm to 9pm.

Food Scene

Fox is a great local coffee shop that's walking distance from our house. They also make yummy vegan and vegetarian lunches and treats. Service can be slow, but it's always worth it.

We think this the best pho in Long Beach (and there's a lot of pho restaurants to choose from)! We're lucky it's a short walk away.

There's a sit-down restaurant and a fish market with just a few outside seats. Both are excellent. The market is a great spot to grab an amazing cup of clam chowder and an order of garlic bread.
