Crema's Take

This Intelligentsia location pulls serious espresso enthusiasts with meticulously sourced beans and pour-over precision, though you're paying premium prices for the experience and the space itself can feel neglected depending on when you visit. The staff makes or breaks it—on good days, you'll find genuine warmth and expertise, but consistency seems to be their weak spot.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Wifi.

Dirty and not well maintained place. Croissant is not fresh. Decent coffee. Overall very expensive for the experience
