Crema's Take

This espresso-focused spot in Grand Island excels at creating a welcoming atmosphere where baristas like Jake genuinely connect with customers and take time to answer questions about their craft. Beyond the expertly-pulled shots, they thoughtfully expand the menu with seasonal specialties and loose-leaf tea selections steeped with care, plus a unique alcohol-inclusive beverage program that sets them apart from typical coffee shops. Visitors consistently praise the pleasant aroma, generous touches like complimentary coffee beans, and the inviting layout that makes lingering over a cup feel like the whole point.

Very delicious coffee; I was presented inside with kind service and a pleasant aroma as soon as I walked in and even got a coffee bean to go along with it on top. I like their holiday selections; 5 stars for me.

Decided to get some coffee on just a wonderful April day here in Hastings. Jake behind the counter was super helpful and very pleasant! I also love the layout of this coffee shop as you have plenty of seating options including a big couch! Just a nice place to go to escape the heat of college work. Definitely will be back for sure and if you’re in the Hastings area come here and give it a shot! You won’t be disappointed!

I tried their hot tea that comes in a pot with chocolate and loam loose leaf (Stag King). Aromatic and soothing. The staff was so friendly and kind. She answered all my questions about the tea before I ordered so patiently. Their interior is inviting and clean but I particularly enjoyed their outdoor seatings.

This is a very unique place. You can order an alcohol beverage or a non-alcoholic one. My friend ordered a blended coffee, and I had an iced spiced chai. Both drinks were amazing. The service was great and extremely friendly. The atmosphere is very relaxed and enjoyable.

I love the atmosphere at Art Bar in Hastings, Nebraska. Staff was friendly and helpful. The vanilla chai was ok; too sweet. The chocolate muffin was a little dry.
