Crema's Take

The Kraken's baristas—particularly their long-timers like Austin—will actually listen to what you want and nail it, whether that's a perfectly executed cappuccino or a custom concoction you dream up on the spot. The pastries here deserve the hype (hunt down a creme brulee donut if they have one), and the pricing feels honest for what you're getting. It's small and parking is tight, but this spot has earned its stellar reputation as a genuine coffee destination that treats both regulars and passing boaters with equal care.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, good cold brew. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Great food and drinks, the employees are nice and I never feel like I payed too much when I go there. Reader, Try the creme brulee donut if they have it. It is absolutely amazing. Plus the atmosphere is just so cozy and nice.

I love the way each Kraken location has a variation on their theme. I picked up a tasty iced herbal tea that was made well. It's a small location with somewhat tight parking so I recommend parking nearby and walking over. Bathroom requires a code.
