Crazy Gander Coffee Company
150 Madison Ave, Memphis, TN
Crema's Take
“Tucked into downtown Memphis, this understated gem excels at both traditional espresso drinks and creative specialty beverages like their standout honey lavender matcha—whisked with an actual bamboo brush for an authentic touch. The intimate, welcoming atmosphere makes it ideal for lingering over a pour over or cold brew, while the genuinely warm service has earned it a devoted following among both locals and travelers passing through on layovers. It's the kind of coffee shop that rewards you for seeking it out, delivering consistent quality and unexpected delights in a space that feels genuinely cared for.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.
