Crema's Take

Kanom Cafe is a family-run gem near JHU that brilliantly bridges Thai and modern pastry traditions, with standout drinks like silky Thai tea and Thai coffee alongside inventive creations like their celebrated matcha basque cheesecake and garlic cream cheese bun. Everything from pastries to beverages is made in-house daily, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere—complete with owners who personally serve guests—makes this cozy spot feel less like a cafe and more like a beloved neighborhood gathering place that happens to serve some of Baltimore's most craveable food.

The matcha basque cheese cake was insanely good. I was visiting from NY and can’t stop thinking about it. I go out of my way whenever I can to find one and there is really no comparison. Wish they shipped its that good, light and creamy! Matcha and Hojicha lattes were awesome as well!

Amazing cozy cafe around the corner from JHU entrance, a new top favorite in Baltimore! Serves delicious drinks and pastries. The owner also directly served the food and drinks to our table. The Thai tea and croissant lives up to their hype. Perfect cozy spot for study or chatting, highly recommend!

This is the best bakery in Baltimore. The food is incredible, so creative and tasty, and they make it in house every morning. The team that runs the bakery is a family and they are so welcoming and enjoyable and they remember you and greet you personally and it is exactly what TC needed. We love coming here. Plus, the coffee and drinks are wow! Can't say enough good things. We recently moved but still come back once a week to visit and get a latte, ham and cheese croissant and coconut croissant. Love you guys!

I feel like it’s not easy to find a great matcha in Baltimore, but here one is! I can’t recommend this place enough, the garlic cream cheese bun was also delicious and I’m really excited for the day I can come back here and try all the uniquely flavored croissants!
