Crema's Take
“Travis has built something genuinely rare: a coffee shop where the owner actually knows your name and cares about what you're drinking, rotating in a thoughtful selection of local and national roasters that he'll happily discuss over an espresso or pour over. The pastries—especially the butter-forward banana bread—are worth the trip alone, and there's real charm in a space small enough that it forces actual human connection. If you're tired of anonymous third-wave chains, Sometimes is the antidote.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, outdoor seating. Pastries on the menu. Parking available.

See all on Google →Owner is rad! Great coffee from an array of good local and unique national roasters.
Sorry no picture due to the space being quaint. Travis likes to get to know his customers. He loves coffee and his choices are superb. Sometimes makes espresso drinks and pour overs. I opted for the pour over and it was wonderful.
Great coffee and great service! What a nice addition to the neighborhood.
I'm in the neighborhood Sometimes. Sometimes I buy a cup of coffee. Sometimes it's great. My interactions with Travis -- the seemingly elusive coffeeshop owner have been downright pleasant. He's a self described coffee research nerd. My baby was sleeping in my car and Travis…
This is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood! Great coffee and super tasty baked goods. Try the banana bread! You can taste the butter and the love 🤤 Plus, the owner is super nice and passionate.
