Crema's Take
“Greystone's pastries and baked goods are genuinely excellent—fresh, thoughtfully made, and worth going out of your way for—though the cramped seating means you'll likely be standing with your coffee. The specialty drinks like their matcha lattes are solid and complement the pastries well, making this a reliable spot for quality grab-and-go breakfast or an afternoon treat rather than a lingering destination. Service can be inconsistent, so manage expectations if you're looking for a particularly welcoming experience.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. Quick-grab spot. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Matcha latte was quite good! The croissant wasn’t my favorite thing (wish it were a warmer and the cream cheese wasn’t super flavorful). Also seating was definitely in very short supply on this cold Sunday morning. However, if you’re looking for a good coffee/matcha and don’t…
