Crema's Take

This San Diego gem has earned a loyal following for their standout macarons, which locals rave about for their perfect texture and delicate flavor—a rare find that keeps people coming back for years. Beyond the pastries, Guiltea Cravings excels at creative boba and milk tea drinks in a cute, well-parking space that feels welcoming for everyone from families to friends meeting up, all while maintaining the kind of genuine hospitality that makes regulars feel genuinely valued.

Cute place with lots of parking. For years this has been our favorite spot for macarons, they always taste fresh with the right amount of chew and not an overpowering flavor like many other places. Today we stopped to get a box to bring to a dinner and had a couple in store and the pistachio ones that are typically my favorite were overly hard and brittle, as if they were a couple days old. I was under the impression they were all baked fresh daily but I guess that's no longer the case? The cashier was nice and let us swap the pistachio ones for a different flavor she said she knew were baked today. Would still recommend visiting this location but I'd ask which flavors were baked the day you visit. Fingers crossed the rest of the assortment is yummy for our guests!

This little café was a nice stop for milk tea, and you can even add boba if you want. They also had a selection of pastries, which was a great bonus. The drink itself was good, although I probably should have ordered it with less sweetness. Overall, a cozy spot worth checking out.

My daughter and I are visiting from Swansboro, NC and stopped in for boba tea. With so many great options, we ended up trying a few different things. The owner at the front counter was incredibly kind and attentive, and we truly felt welcomed. As a business owner myself, I know how essential great customer service is, and this place absolutely delivers. The macarons were amazing—normally I don’t care for them because I’ve never had a good one, but these completely changed my mind. My daughter loved the crispy tofu with the house seasoning, and our drinks were delicious. We will definitely be coming back every time we visit PB to see our son.

I can’t believe this shop has been here for so long and I haven’t tried them and it seems they’ve updated their decor and menu to follow the trends. It was on my radar because of DoorDash there is a buy one get one free promotion. Sea salt cream jasmine tea with matcha foam and boba - the jasmine tea flavor is floral and pleasant, and I liked the salted matcha cream flavor that added a hint of matcha flavor to the drink. I didn’t like the boba as it was tasteless and had no flavor so would skip next time. Salted coffee with Ube cream - delicious Vietnamese coffee style with a hint of Ube flavor. This one was so good! Parking is very easy in free large parking lot. My order was made quickly and ready to go and packaged well.
