Crema's Take
“Tucked away in Marquette, this espresso-focused café strikes that rare balance of being cozy and unpretentious while still taking their craft seriously—regulars rave about the latte art and thoughtful pour overs just as much as the genuinely friendly baristas who actually want to chat with you. The intimate space is perfect for settling in with a notebook or meeting a friend, and they've thought about dietary needs with gluten-free pastries alongside their standout scones, all complemented by drinks served in charming mason jars that taste as good as they look.”
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. Family friendly.

I came here from out of town and got an iced vanilla latte with oat milk! My coffee was pretty cheap comparatively to a typical drink these days. It came in a cute mason jar cup and was delicious, the perfect amount of creamy. The baristas were so nice and friendly! They gave me…
My husband and I went there for breakfast during our trip to U.P. from lower peninsula Michigan. We went there at 9am-ish. The ambiance and the owner of the cafe was so nice. Very cozy yet not bougie. Their coffee was amazing too. The refill was free. I'd love to stop by again.
My favorite coffee shop in town. Smaller more personal feel, plus gluten free pastries. Remember this isn’t another fast paced coffee shop, but the drinks are very much worth any wait. And in the evening they also serve adult beverages. You can pick up their fresh in house…
