Crema's Take

This beloved Albany spot nails the fundamentals of authentic Vietnamese banh mi, with reviewers consistently raving about the standout bread—crispy, thin-crusted exterior with an impossibly light interior that elevates every sandwich. Beyond the sandwiches themselves, it's a genuine neighborhood gem that feels authentically Vietnamese, whether you're grabbing a quick $8-10 lunch or settling in to linger over fresh-brewed green tea boba, all at prices that feel almost too good to be true.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Light food on the menu.

The #4 (BBQ pork) and #5 (pork meatballs) are a tasty value at $8.34 each (plus tax). The bread is soft with a very light crust. The green tea boba is likewise reasonably priced at $5 for a large.
