Crema's Take

This tiny Nashville roastery punches well above its weight, earning raves from serious coffee lovers who've benchmarked themselves against the best shops in New York and Seattle. Their espresso and pour overs showcase expertly roasted beans with real finesse, while seasonal specialty drinks show surprising creativity and balance—plus the pastries are legitimately decadent. It's a standing-room-only kind of place with a genuinely warm staff, so plan to enjoy your cup on their outdoor seating and savor the care that goes into every cup.

We’re major coffee drinkers and have lived in New York, Seattle, and now Nashville, so our bar is pretty high. Crema absolutely lived up to the hype. The coffee was outstanding—easily some of the best we’ve had anywhere. Really well-balanced, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The space is small and gets very busy, which was obvious when we visited. Service was fine—efficient and professional, though not especially warm. That said, given how packed it was, it’s understandable. If you’re serious about coffee, this place is 100% worth a stop. We’ll definitely be back for the coffee alone.

I got a 12 ounce coffee... It tasted very good! I do think they should consider lowering their prices to encourage repeat business. It was like $4.30...I gave him a $5 bill and no change was even offered...I travel a lot and it just seems too high... But I still gave it a five star.

Wonderful place to grab a quick cup of coffee. This is a very tiny cafe with basically standing room only inside, so we enjoyed our drinks outside. Excellent seasonal drinks that delicately balanced the flavors so you could taste everything without it being overly sweet. I really enjoyed the Foster and was happy to have an espresso beverage with real banana flavor. It was excellent.

Quaint coffee shop that roast their own beans. The staff was kind and went above and beyond on a speciality request. The pastries are so decadent and fresh. There's a small space to hang out. Extra clean and comfortable. Highly recommend a visit here.

Such a cute little spot! Crema was one of our top two coffee spots while visiting for the week (we tried like 10 local spots!). The coffee was great — and I’m PICKY when it comes to coffee. Super flavorful, wonderful ratios in the lattes, we would definitely come again!
