Black Ring Coffee: A Story of Craft and Community

Black Ring Coffee began as a passionate venture into specialty coffee roasting in 2014. The company's journey to becoming one of Long Beach's premier coffee destinations is a testament to dedication to craft and community building. In January 2025, Omar Pacheco took ownership of Black Ring Coffee, bringing fresh energy and vision while maintaining the company's core values and commitment to quality.

In 2017, Black Ring Coffee established its brick-and-mortar location in North Long Beach, transforming a modest space into a hub for coffee enthusiasts. The roastery was equipped with a carefully selected roasting system, marking the beginning of their in-house roasting program that would set them apart in the Long Beach coffee scene.

Our commitment to quality extends beyond the cup. We take pride in sourcing exceptional beans from the world's premier coffee-growing regions. Our rotating selection features distinctive coffees from the lush highlands of Central America, the rich volcanic soils of Africa, the ancient farming traditions of Asia, and the diverse microclimates of South America. Each region brings its unique character to our roasting program, allowing us to offer an ever-evolving palette of flavors and experiences to our customers.

The shop's evolution has been marked by significant milestones. In 2020, we expanded our community involvement by becoming a hub for local artists, including hosting an innovative art vending machine that showcases local talent. Our Thursday public cupping sessions, introduced to educate and engage our community, have become a beloved tradition.

Today, Black Ring Coffee operates as an independent coffee roastery focused on being quality-obsessed and people-focused. From our location at 5373 Long Beach Blvd, we serve our community with a rotating selection of meticulously roasted coffees. Each batch is carefully crafted to highlight the unique characteristics of its origin - from bright, floral African notes to rich, chocolate-toned Central American profiles. Our rotating tap selection features unique cold brew creations, tea infusions, nitro-infused, and carbonated beverages.

Our story is one of continuous growth and unwavering commitment to craft coffee excellence. As we look to the future, we remain dedicated to our founding vision: transforming carefully sourced beans into extraordinary brews while fostering a warm, inviting space for our community.
