Crema's Take

“This Harrisburg spot leans into casual, budget-friendly vibes with an eclectic menu that spans cold brew coffee alongside surprisingly competitive beer prices and frozen treats—though consistency seems to be a challenge here. The experience is genuinely hit-or-miss according to regulars, with some praising the quick, friendly service and others reporting dismissive staff interactions. If you're looking for no-frills specialty drinks and don't mind a dive bar aesthetic, it could be worth a stop, but managing expectations about reliability is probably wise.”

Horrible service rude staff and racially biased. I walked up tired in 80 degree weather didn't even get up to the counter before the nasty unfriendly bartender assumed I was drunk with no signs at all it's summer and I had to walk, of course I'm tired when I walk through the doors. Other patrons walking around extremely intoxicated but I was singled out because I'm white, goodbye, never will go again!

Very low prices for beer. They have slushies now too. Only 2 flavors! Great spot. Very convenient!
