COFFEE WAS BLACK
364 Auburn Ave NE STE 2, Atlanta, GA
Crema's Take
“This Black-owned Atlanta gem brings Caribbean coffee culture to life with inventive drinks that seamlessly blend tradition and creativity, like their show-stopping plantain matcha latte that even matcha skeptics can't resist. The owner is genuinely invested in walking you through the menu and creating an experience that celebrates Jamaican and Haitian heritage with every pour, while the chill, welcoming vibe makes it the perfect spot to linger and connect with others. Expect bold flavors, exceptional espresso, and a space that radiates pride and cultural excellence in every detail.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.
