Crema's Take

This casual Chapel Hill institution has perfected the art of the unpretentious neighborhood gathering spot, where mismatched chairs and a charmingly worn-in aesthetic set the stage for genuinely excellent food and honest coffee. Their cubano sandwiches and house-made pastries draw regulars back year after year, while the efficient order-at-counter system keeps things moving even when the place fills up—making it equally welcoming whether you're ducking in for a quick caffeine hit or settling in for a leisurely breakfast with your dog. The whole operation radiates the kind of laid-back confidence that comes from nailing the fundamentals: strong, smooth coffee and surprisingly affordable, high-quality food that people actually get excited about.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly.

Best cubano sandwich. I hadn’t been to this place in 15 years, and it didn’t disappoint. Very informal place, with plenty of tables although it does get full.

Loved bringing my dog here and having a wonderful brunch. I like how they were set up to seat yourself, order upfront and someone will deliver your order. It made for fast service.

Without a doubt, some Of the best food you will eat anywhere. I consider the prices the lowest I've seen for the high quality of food. The deserts/cakes are to die for. The food shop has wonderful selections to take home. If you are near Durham, you have to visit!
