Crema's Take

Tucked into charming Carpinteria, this spot roasts their beans fresh in-house and grinds them to order, giving their espresso drinks a notably vibrant character that surprises visitors expecting just another coastal cafe. The vibe is effortlessly chic with flexible seating options including a nice outdoor area, making it equally welcoming whether you're lingering solo with a laptop, meeting friends, or bringing your pup along (just note the cafe's social dog community tends to say hello). Beyond excellent coffee, their waffles and breakfast menu earn genuine praise—think the kind of place where people actually finish their plates—paired with warm, attentive service that matches the seaside charm.

Where to start so we landed here in this little coastal town, the big surprise was it was freshly brewed! They toast the coffee bean then its grinded. The tamales 🫔 was sold out. But we were able to try the cheese tamales! The unbleached wheat and flour! Spectacular! The cheese Danish oh wow so delicious 😋. Me and my cousin flew in from Virginia. This town everyone was polite and helpful. This place has our 💕. Will definitely come back in the near future. This is place horchata coffee very unique to back home. It's toasted and grinded to make this. You can definitely taste the cinnamon and Nutmeg!🍊🍋🍌🍍 . We enjoyed it here. The BLT sandwich on a bagel IS A MUST. the orange juice is fresh! You can feel the breeze come inside

Love this place. They have wonderful options and the vibe is so chic. Good drinks, healthy food, great customer service and shopping to be had. Comfy seating with a nice view close to all the shops and beach.

A definite gem! Both coffee and food are excellent. My girlfriend who never ever finishes her food actually devoured her entire waffle plate! Love the fact that you can choose from different seating setups (chairs, couches, outdoor seating, etc.) Service was attentive and helpful.

Delicious waffles! The coffee is yummy. Very much a Cafe vibe. Dog friendly. Service Dogs: Be prepared for dogs to approach your dog. One dog approached my dog under our table while we were eating. Not the cafe's fault, just be aware of the local culture. 👍

Fun and vibrant cafe located just off of Carpinteria Avenue. They are open all morning and have a great selection of espresso drinks, hot and cold teas, drinks, and cafe style foods. I didn’t get a chance to try their food but the hibiscus tea and lemonade drink that I ordered was great and refreshing. I highly recommend for anyone traveling through the area for a morning pick me up.
