Crema's Take
“Carrie's owner-driven vision transforms this spot into a theatrical escape where rotating "witches pockets" and house-made pastries pair with carefully sourced London Tea Room selections, creating a menu that feels genuinely personal rather than mass-produced. The eclectic artwork and surprising upstairs lounge make it equally suited for a solo study session (they've got outlets and wifi) or lingering conversations with friends over phenomenal sandwiches that inspire moments of reverent silence. If you want specialty drinks and food that reflect one person's actual taste rather than a chain playbook, this is worth the trip.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Absolutely love it here. I came for a late night study session (they have wall plug-ins and WIFI!!!) and enjoyed my time so much. Staff is so welcoming, and the food/drink is delicious! Inside is visually stunning too, whimsical and witchy vibes. Great for a date night or even…
The drinks were beautiful and tasty. A little pricy but that’s anywhere these days. I loved the variety of the menu especially the speciality drinks. I had a Moon Milk. The staff was polite and welcoming. The atmosphere and artwork are top notch.
Super nice cafe with great atmosphere. Our server was very polite. You can get hot water refill with your tea. They have some board games and round tables to play upstairs. I would recommend checking their social media since they show film and do other types of events. Adding…
