Crema's Take
“The owner's obsession with premium ice cream quality shows in every scoop—customers rave about the generous portions and creative flavor combinations, especially the salted caramel-peanut butter chocolate blend. Beyond ice cream, they pull solid espresso drinks and smoothies with the kind of enthusiastic customization that makes families and casual visitors equally welcome. It's an unpretentious, friendly spot that does one thing really well: turn a Tahoe afternoon into something legitimately delicious.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout, with creative signature drinks. Slow-sit spot. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Poppy is the nicest man and the people working here are so sweet, helpful and always willing to customize your order. This is my favorite frozen yogurt place in Tahoe ever! While their ice cream and yogurt are all awesome, their acai bowls are what I usually get. They are always…
