Crema's Take

Cloud Nine Cafe is a cheerful neighborhood gem that's earned its stellar reputation primarily for impossibly fluffy souffle pancakes that steal the show—think ethereal stacks topped with creative flavor combinations like creme brulee banana, ube, and macadamia salted cream that somehow balance sweetness with savory depth. The friendly, recommendation-ready staff and rotating menu of specialty drinks (from traditional coffee to matcha tea) make it a reliable spot for lingering over breakfast with friends or family, though fair warning: come hungry and prepared to be amazed by what a pancake can be.

Amazing little cafe. Super cute and extremely friendly staff. Very helpful with great recommendations. Pancakes were out of this world.

One of the fluffiest pancakes I have ever eaten. I got the salted cream with macadamia nuts topping. Usually, I'm not a sweet-tooth person; however, these are delightfully savory and have a hint of sweetness that balances into a light dessert. It pairs wonderfully with their matcha latte!

Adore this place! the best souffle pancakes I’ve ever had! Not just pretty but full of flavor as well. They always switch up the menu with new flavors, my favorite is the creme brulee banana but ube and matcha are definitely delicious as well.

Idk what the pancakes are but it's pretty good. Probably would of been even better if they had syrup. My son loved his too. I got mango he got strawberry.

My friend and I came here to try the souffle pancakes. She had the brown sugar creme with tapioca pearls on the side and I had the chocolate cream with oreo topping along with a pineapple smoothie. My friend wasn't fond of the tapioca pearls but it wasn't because if the flavor, it was a texture thing for her. The souffles were amazing! Light and fluffy. So much better than a different kitchen place we tried earlier this week. We highly recommend this place. The café owner was so very nice and attentive. We will be back.💜💚
