Breaking Grounds
67 Main St, Salem, MA
Crema's Take
“The lavender lattes and creative signature drinks here are genuinely special—this isn't a place coasting on competence, but one that treats flavor experimentation seriously. Staff genuinely seem to care about your day, moving with impressive speed even during rushes, and the breakfast sandwiches on ciabatta are substantial enough to make the trip worthwhile. If you want specialty drinks that go beyond the usual flavor combinations, this is worth seeking out.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.
