Crema's Take

The homemade vegan options here—cream cheese, sausage, and baked goods—set this place apart from typical coffee shops, and they're clearly drawing a loyal crowd who return for the vegetarian breakfast burritos and solid cappuccinos. Service is quick and efficient, though you might catch them slammed during peak hours, and the atmosphere feels genuinely welcoming for both lingering and grabbing-and-going. Fair warning: espresso drinks seem inconsistent depending on who's behind the bar, so stick with their strong suit if you're picky about your latte.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Excellent baristas, atmosphere, and delicious satisfying vegetarian items and vegan baked goods. I return again and again for cappuccinos and breakfast burritos when visiting for volleyball games/practices. Slow paced and on cold winters night allowed me to bring my doggo in. …

I had a great experience! I had the bagel with vegan cream cheese and the tofu scramble. I appreciate that their vegan cream cheese and vegan sausage are homemade (or seem to be) instead of using more artificial replacements. I thought the tofu scramble was very good, especially…
