Crema's Take

This Greene Ave neighborhood gem draws devoted locals with its genuinely warm vibe and surprisingly creative drink menu—the "teddy bear" specialty is just the start of what keeps people coming back. Though the coffee quality can be hit-or-miss on consistency, the real draw is the thoughtfully designed space with multiple hideaways: a front porch for people-watching, a moody indoor alley, and a peaceful backyard that makes it equally suited for focused laptop work or unhurried meetups. Fair warning: weekday afternoons transform it into a de facto coworking space, but evenings open up wine service and a more relaxed social atmosphere.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Open late.

Local spot that is warm and cozy. I observed that they offer wine however that is in the evening. I ordered the teddy bear and a cup of coffee. Service friendly and fast. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

an adorb coffee shop, loved by the locals! plenty of seating options (front porch, inside - a long alley way, and backyard tucked into quietness). ac is not very strong but doable in the summer. good wifi. good americano and pastry!

We recently hosted a private event on their back patio and everything turned out perfectly! Daryl and her team were so kind and easy to work with, they helped make sure things ran smoothly. Every coffee/tea drink that I tasted was delicious, and the food was incredible!! Haven’t…
