Crema's Take

This locally-owned gem in Gatlinburg crafts serious, approachable coffee that locals enthusiastically rank above the big chains—think thoughtfully made espresso drinks and specialty options like matcha rather than sugar-heavy syrups. The real magic is in the warmth: a genuinely kind owner and staff who greet regulars like friends, creating a cozy, welcoming space that's equally perfect for a quick caffeine boost before work or settling in with your laptop for hours. It's the kind of place that makes you feel like you've discovered something special, not just another coffee shop.

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.

Needed a coffee before Dolly. I saw that they were a new place and we love local coffee joints. We're not from the area and this was our first visit. Pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and message. And it's great coffee. 1000000% recommend

The BEST coffee shop in town!! 🤎☕️ Seriously… the best tasting coffee I’ve ever had (and I’m a total coffee snob 🤪🤣), and that’s saying something! From the first sip, you can tell the quality and care that goes into every drink. The atmosphere is just as amazing—warm,…
