Crema's Take

This Cambridge hotspot blends Brazilian bakery tradition with creative specialty drinks, earning passionate praise for its standout matcha and beautifully executed breakfast plates like perfectly poached eggs and airy waffles topped with fresh fruit and dulce de leche. The vibe skews lively and casual—expect a crowd during peak hours, but the quality coffee, pastries, and thoughtful food make it worth the wait or a quick takeout run. Come early if you want breathing room, or embrace the energy of a neighborhood favorite that clearly does both traditional and creative equally well.

Pit stop here for a quick bite and coffee. Super packed so we ended up doing take out. Street parking only. Coffee was good and had the traditional pao as a snack.

Bom Dough is a Brazilian bakery/cafe serving up Breakfast and Brunch foods, as well as an assortment of drinks. We came in the early morning, so the place didn't have that much of a line and wasn't too packed. The staff were friendly, explaining to us the menu as well as letting us sit down and wait for the foods, though getting the food was a bit confusing as they had separate areas for the food and drink pickup. We got a peach matcha, which came only in an iced form, as well as a Jalapeno Cheddar ace breakfast sandwich and a everything luxe salmon breakfast sandwich. Both sandwiches were kinda small for the price, but tasted really good. The bagels were toasted great and overall was a good bite to eat, and didn't feel too greasy or overwhelming. The peach matcha was good, though didn't really stand out with matcha flavor even with extra matcha in it.

From the service to the food, everything was truly amazing. The matcha here though… ummm, WOW. It was insanely delicious, probably the best I’ve had so far. Highly recommend this place! What we order, *Peach matcha 10/10 *Lemon chamomile tea 10/10 *Traditional , guava filled, and dulce de leche pao da queijo 10/10 *Breakfast Gnocchi 8/10 (inside the mozzarella cheese were cold, tomato cream/soup were to warm) *Crack chicken sandwich 8/10 *Capital grilled cheeee & gnocchi soup 8/10 *Chocolate chip cookie 6/10 (had a piece of hair on it :/so we exchanged it for another one, and a bit pricey.

Great spot for a quick breakfast or lunch! I had the smoked salmon plate with poached eggs — super tasty, and the eggs were perfectly gooey. I also tried the guava matcha, which was pretty good, but next time I’d go for the original (especially if you like a strong matcha flavor). The place has a nice vibe, and the staff are very friendly and helpful.
