Crema's Take

This welcoming downtown spot masterfully balances quick coffee runs with leisurely sit-down moments, earning consistent praise for genuinely kind staff and a thoughtfully curated selection that goes beyond typical cafe fare—think exceptional maple lattes, melt-in-your-mouth blueberry muffins, and scratch-made sandwiches that locals are raving about. Whether you're grabbing a pastry before work or settling in with friends over a leisurely coffee, the approachable vibe and quality ingredients make it feel like Portsmouth's new gathering place, complete with wine and spirits for those lingering afternoons.

What to expect

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

It was a pleasure to dine in at the dwntwn grocer + cafe!! I had a sausage, egg, cheese and veggies sandwich and it was the best I’ve ever tasted! Also, the blueberry muffins melt in your mouth with fresh juicy blueberries and very tasty ingredients.
