Crema's Take
“Perennial strikes that rare balance between serious coffee craft and genuinely welcoming space, where quality beans and house-made syrups mean you're getting complexity without bitterness, whether you're ordering a straightforward latte or their more adventurous signature drinks. The plant-filled room with its warm indie vibe and excellent baristas (regulars rave about Devin and Julia) makes it equally suited for deep work sessions or catching up with a friend, and their specialty drinks like the lavender honey iced latte prove they're not just coasting on good espresso.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Terrific coffee shop! At a time when most coffee shops rely on artificial syrups and stale beans, Perennial has chosen quality above all else. Friendly staff, high quality beans, and house-made syrups make this place stand out. I had the citrus earl grey latte, and it was…
