Crema's Take

Tucked into Wilmington, this petite pink-themed coffee shop is as much a visual feast as it is a caffeine destination, with shelves brimming with adorable trinkets and a curated selection of apparel that rivals the drink menu. Their signature creations like the Cherub—a jam-laden espresso drink that regulars obsess over—and inventive seasonal offerings like their soda espresso showcase a playful approach to coffee that goes well beyond the standard menu. It's a cozy, intimate spot perfect for a slow morning when you want to linger over something truly special, though fair warning: the tiny size means it shines brightest on quieter days.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.

Another coffee shop on my list. It’s a cute spot. They have a little shop. Some of there sweaters and tops are so cute. I need to go back to get one. The coffee was good too, I think I had their raspberry rose :). I need to go back and try their teas since I’m a tea lover.

Super cute coffee shop with seasonal drinks! They don’t have a bathroom and it’s a little small, but on a slow day it’s perfect and relaxing to shop around and enjoy your drink! They also have a little pastry case with poptarts, muffins, and cinnamon rolls that rotate flavors.

We have been here for coffee three times in the past 10 days. The first two times were splendid. The Cherub is probably my most favorite drink in town…but it depends on who makes it. Adorable place! Such an interesting way to mark the drinks with the paint tabs. *My previous…
