Crema's Take

Tucked into Milwaukee's Roosevelt neighborhood in a charmingly repurposed old gas station, this spot delivers serious espresso and traditional coffee drinks in a wonderfully gritty-yet-cozy atmosphere that feels like a well-kept secret. The staff consistently goes out of their way to make you feel welcome, and their house-made pastries and donuts pair perfectly with thoughtfully pulled shots at prices that won't break the bank. It's the kind of place where you'll want to linger over your cup, whether you're meeting a friend or just discovering the neighborhood for the first time.

I was greeted and treated oh so well. Everyone there seems to be in good spirits. I enjoy my coffee there every time. I am new to the area. I look forward to having more coffees there.

Great coffee! I'm a coffee lover so that says a lot for me, it close to my house and a nice cozy place. Their pastries/doughnuts are great as well.

What a fun little gem of a find in the Roosevelt neighborhood! Please stop in to enjoy the unique history and atmosphere, as well as some really good coffee and lattes!

Cute coffeeshop in the middle of a very unlikely location. Looks like an old gas station or oil change location remodeled. Feels old and grungy yet homy and comfy at the same time. Prices are cheap. A medium coffee and cookie cost less than $2.50. Nothing is outstanding, but neither bad. There is no kitchen or bakery, and it seems like bakery items are just store bought and resold. Breakfast sandwich is microwaved Jimmy Dean (just what I get at home!). Would I come back? Yes! Especially when in the vicinity and needing a quick pick me up. Though I’m not sure that I’d go out of my way to come. Attend to your children - they will be given espresso and a kitten if not.

5/2023 Went here early May. Was looking for a cup of Joe. Went down to Mlwke to see a friend and got turned around. It was raining pretty good. Found this place. Highly recommended. Workers/staff are great. Prices are reasonable. They can make some great drinks and know what they are doing. They have some nice tasty treats. They have games, tv- books. Great place to go inside and chill. Plenty of parking outside, place inside is very clean- bathrooms are clean. Check them out if in the area. Good place and highly recommended! Until the next review Steve-O, out!
