Crema's Take

This beloved Key West breakfast spot nails both the coffee and the kitchen, earning raves for everything from silky cold brew to their legendary shrimp and grits that locals still can't stop talking about. The team moves with genuine warmth and attentiveness, creating that rare combination of a bustling, welcoming atmosphere where you can linger over a perfectly crafted mocha or grab a quick black ice coffee without feeling rushed. Whether you're hunting for creative specialty drinks, a celiac-friendly meal, or just the best bloody Mary on the island, this place delivers the kind of experience that makes you wonder why it took you seven years to find it.

This spot is in a great location, the food is amazing. I have celiacs and had no issue ordering here. It was so good! We didn’t have to wait, the waitress was very attentive and friendly.

Literally the best shrimp and grits i have ever had. Like ever. Lots of shrimp, the pico de gallo gives it a nice zip, the shrimp clearly never frozen and seasoned, the grits PERFECTLY cooked. Many places struggle making perfect grits. this foodie’s pleasure to enjoy! Uniqueness/flavor, fresh and presentation! 5 star breakfast. Will come again tomorrow! Val

Definitely worth the visit while you’re here! Excellent food/portions, along with great staff. Coffee is also phenomenal, best one around and all we got was a black ice coffee! Got the bacon infused vodka Bloody Mary along with their monster burrito, which indeed was a monster! Only place on the trip I left full. There was a wait of 10-15 min and was pact (as any breakfast place is anywhere around 11) but was surprised how fast we actually got seated for how busy it was and people waiting outside. They come outside to call your name, hold the door and great you so you won’t miss your table. Please visit while you’re in the keys, so worth it!

Can’t believe it took me seven years of coming to Key West to finally come here. I was in search of the best bloody Mary’s I certainly found them and probably the best breakfast I’ve had on the island as well. I had the shrimp and grits on day one and the lobster and grits day two. The first day was the Mexican Maria tequila bloody Mary and the second day was the Bacon bloody Mary. All of them outdid expectations but highly recommend this place. It opened at 8 o’clock both days and I did not have a wait when I got there at 8:30 on a Saturday and Sunday.

EXCELLENT coffee drinks!! The regular coffee was nice and rich, the cold brew was smooth and the mocha latte was delightful. We wouldn't hesitate to do that again 💯👍 We really wanted the food to live up to the coffee. Alas, it was not to be. The food was fresh and hot, but a little hit or miss. The potential for greatness is there, but it missed the mark. The breakfast burrito was overpowered by strong jalapeno. The peanut butter was only discovered after a good bit of the otherwise lovely fresh acai bowl was consumed, so the remainder was a bit off balance. The wonderful, chunky sausage gravy was THE STAR, except for being quite salty, but the cheddar biscuit(s) were sadly underwhelming. We were told that three big cheddar biscuits come with the dish, but there was actually 3 HALVES of regular muffin tin size bread rolls that were textured nothing like biscuits and tasted like bland dough with a bite of baking powder. No evidence of cheddar here. The vibe of the ocean life themed venue is cool and everywhere EXCEPT the bathrooms were reasonably nice and clean. All of the staff we observed seemed pleasantly detached and just doing their job, so no personal touch here to make us feel good about the $$ & upcharges for every single thing. *We all agreed we'd still try this again, just because the coffee is spot on and the potential is definitely there! Where there is life, there is Hope. 😉 Happy Travels!
