Crema's Take

This Rapid City gem pairs expertly crafted espresso drinks with the unexpected joy of hanging out among rescue cats, making every visit feel like a cozy escape rather than a quick caffeine stop. The owner clearly cares deeply about both the craft—their signature drinks are creatively named after cat breeds and genuinely delicious—and creating a welcoming space where families, coffee enthusiasts, and cat lovers all feel at home. It's the kind of place where a cardamom latte tastes better because you've got a purring companion keeping you company.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Family friendly.

We son absolutely loved this place. Not only does my son get to see and play with cats, but we get to get yummy drinks and lunch/breakfast. They have an adult lunchable which is yummy. Their soups are my husband's favorite.

Darling little spot! The staff are very friendly and helpful. The coffee is nice, I will be back to try more flavors (they are all named after cat breeds). It's $5/30min in the cat room. I recommend an iced Calico latte which is a white mocha hazelnut. The place has an…
