Crema's Take

Tucked in Carmel, The Power Plant Coffee roasts with Acme beans to create a beautifully balanced cup that skews mellow rather than sharp—perfect if you like adding an extra shot to dial in your taste. The space blooms with beautiful plants and welcoming staff, making it an ideal hideaway for focused work or unhurried conversation, while their pastries (especially the bear claws) and the adjacent Food Lab's exceptional burgers turn a coffee run into a full, craveable experience.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.
