A roastery with a walk-in Tasting Room & Pro Shop at 2952 E 14th St, Long Beach. Owner Ed Moffatt is “an Aussie, from Melbourne” (Sprudge), and co-owner Jeremy Creighton is a “fellow Aussie” (Laguna Beach Living magazine, 2019). Its own site says it was “originally founded in Melbourne, Australia”.

Order: a flat white ($5.50 on its own online menu, checked 21 Oct 2026).

Hours: its own site lists two different sets of hours, so check with the café before you go.

Same owners as Milligram (LA Times Daily Pilot), which pours Common Room beans.
