Crema's Take

This Ferndale gem has earned a devoted following for its thoughtfully crafted drinks that linger in your memory long after your visit—the churro latte is practically legendary among regulars. Beyond the excellent coffee and cold brew, what really sets the place apart is the unhurried atmosphere where you can actually settle in, paired with genuine warmth from staff who seem genuinely happy to be there, plus the bonus of quality pastries and empanadas to round out your visit. It's the kind of neighborhood spot that feels like a discovery worth keeping close.

What to expect

Cold brew standout, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Very chill spot and great options for coffee and food! The tortilla cold brew was not for me BUT super interesting and happy to try it! Yes, it tastes like tortilla chips😂❤️

Excellent coffee and very friendly staff. Plus, there’s a speakeasy in the back at night!
