Crema's Take
“The real draw here is the pastries and baked goods—this is as much a bakery as a coffee shop, and reviewers consistently rave about the cakes, cheesecake, and apple fritters enough to hire them for weddings. It's a casual corner spot in Richmond with a genuinely friendly staff and a handful of indoor and outdoor seats that works equally well for a quick grab or lingering over coffee with friends. The coffee itself is traditional and competent rather than adventurous, so come for the baking, stay for the vibe.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

The cheesecake was fabulous and the apple fritters were pretty good! We tried a cinnamon roll to see how it compares to some of the negative reviews, and while it wasn’t terrible, it was a bit dry and bland. I think a sticky pecan bun would be better suited to the type of dough…
