Crema's Take
“Destroyer treats coffee as an afterthought to its real obsession: inventive, beautifully plated food that punches well above typical cafe fare, with creative herbal tea blends served in gorgeous ceramics. The modern, design-forward space draws a creative crowd happy to linger over breakfast dishes like beef tartare and perfectly executed avocado toast, though you'll need to arrive early on weekends to snag a seat. If you want serious culinary creativity with your coffee rather than just a caffeine pit stop, this is worth the trip.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast on the menu.

Definitely one of the most inventive brunches I've ever had. This felt honestly like it could have been a 1 star Michelin experience, so for that I do not have an issue with the price ($$-$$$). The presentation, taste, and ingredients were ON POINT. We had the avocado toast…
