Crema's Take
“This waterfront gem has earned its loyal following with genuinely excellent Cuban sandwiches and bold, strong coffee that keeps locals coming back daily. Beyond the classics, their guava and cream cheese Cuban bread and creative breakfast sandwiches like the KeyWester showcase real care in execution, with fresh ingredients and flavors that justify the wait during peak hours. The outdoor seating and casual vibe make it perfect for settling into a leisurely morning or grabbing a quick bite between adventures in Key West.”
