Crema's Take

“The made-to-order smoothies here are genuinely memorable—reviewers can't stop thinking about drinks like the Piña Fresa days later—and the owner Lori and her team bring such genuine warmth that it feels less like a transaction and more like a friend making you lunch. Beyond the smoothies, the Chaffle BLT and fresh-made sandwiches are equally impressive, making this the kind of casual spot where everything tastes better because someone actually cares about what they're making. It's perfect for lingering over a meal with friends or family, with vibrant energy and outdoor seating that makes even a post-hike pit stop feel special.”

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

I got the Chaffle BLT over a week ago, and I would be lying if I said I didn't think about it every day since. How delicious! Made fresh to order. But also the two working there were the sweetest ever, great customer service. I am almost 30 minutes away but I will be coming back.

We loved the fruit smoothies! I had the Banana Breeze and my husband had the Piña Fresa—both were delicious. The service was amazing, and the place has such a vibrant, welcoming energy. We’ll definitely be back to try the Santa Fe and the cheeseburger wrap!

Absolutely beautiful spot for lunch or a family picnic dinner after a day in the park. The team was courteous and did a delightful job helping me choose. I loved the refreshing mango pineapple smoothie while they worked on my delicious burger with fresh, crispy toppings.

I stopped by Tastebuds On Walnut a couple of days ago & I was happy I did! Lori, the owner & her son Danye, were both awesome! Danye made me the Pina Freso smoothie, which is made with real fruit, pineapple & strawberries, a little brown sugar & oat milk, delicious!🍍🍓 I also…
