Café On The Avenue
1240 Hertel Ave, Buffalo, NY
Crema's Take
“This cozy neighborhood breakfast spot feels like stepping into someone's warm living room, where attentive service and genuine hospitality turn a simple coffee run into a memorable experience. The house-made pastries and all-day breakfast menu pair perfectly with genuinely excellent coffee that even non-coffee drinkers rave about, making it equally suited for a quick morning grab or a leisurely sit-down with friends on a rainy afternoon.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

A very small and cozy brunch place. We went there on a Saturday and had a really solid experience. It seems to be only a two-person team, but you couldn't tell by how efficiently they were working. We ordered a breakfast quesadilla and a breakfast platter with country gravy.…
