Crema's Take

“This Durham gem roasts its beans in-house during early morning hours, creating an immaculate vibe that keeps regulars coming back for espresso-focused drinks and daily-rotating homemade pastries. Whether you're settling in with a pour over for an afternoon of reading or grabbing a specialty latte between classes, the friendly staff and reasonable prices make Breaking New Grounds feel like the local coffeehouse everyone wishes existed in their neighborhood.”

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
