Crema's Take

Retro Cafe wins you over with genuine warmth and creative drink combinations like their half-chai, half-apple-cider "Chaider" that feel like friendly experiments rather than gimmicks. The staff actually listens to what you want, the food (especially the grilled cheese) hits above typical cafe standards, and the whole place is thoughtfully designed to welcome everyone, including visible support for LGBTQ and ADA communities. It's the kind of spot that feels like a local secret in the best way—unpretentious, affordable, and genuinely interested in making your visit memorable.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Driving north, we stopped at this funky place for morning coffee. My cappuccino was excellent, as was the chocolate chunk cookie. I'll definitely stop there again when I'm in the Scranton area.

A dainty little cafe in the local area! The decorations match the retro theme, but there could be more to help bring out the theme. I got an iced flower power, but the lavender flavor was lacking. The latte was still good though. I also got a house made broccoli cheddar soup,…
