Crema's Take

This drive-thru gem in Lacey has built serious loyalty with regulars who rave about genuinely friendly baristas like Kylee, Cicily, and Allison who actually remember you and engage in real conversation. The drinks are consistently excellent and remarkably affordable—especially if you're ordering delivery—making it the kind of place you find yourself thinking about the moment you leave your house. It's the perfect grab-and-go spot that somehow feels personal despite the quick service, which explains why people have been coming back year after year.

I’ve gone here for the last year and it’s hands down the best coffee/drink stand in the Lacey/oly area. All the baristas are so friendly and hold good conversation. And the drinks? Please! I literally won’t go anywhere else. The best flavored drinks I’ve ever had! Their prices are also unmatched. You’re getting what you’re paying for AND at a good price! You wanna come here!

UPDATED 2026: My husband and I have gone a couple times this year now, we did take a break for a couple of months at the end of 2025, and unfortunately, there is still a similar issue where so they are not filling.The cup to the top, the coffee was burnt last time.We were there, and it feels like they are hiring very young girls that don't know what they're doing. We have since found a new coffee spot as of the end of february. Thank goodness. This used to be our favorite spot for coffee. In recent months it seems they have and a whole change in staff. And all the girls are very sweet, but were noticing there's always something wrong with the taste of our regular coffee order, either it is too sweet, there is not enough milk, and one that really has been frustrating me and has made me decide to stop going all together, my cup is never full. These never used to be issue before. I'm hoping with time things get better.

this place is honestly so amazing, it’s soooo cheap, and every coffee place when i use doordash is at least 30 dollars everytime but for two big drinks and for delivery it’s only 13 dollars !!! cheapest place to go when you want good but not expensive coffee. highly recommend and they are very caring with your drinks too and make them delicious.

One of my favorites! Consistency is key 🔑 I love how it’s right up the street from me. Friendly and the girls are very helpful when indecisive. I’ve never ordered food here so I’m not sure. Iced white mocha is my favorite. White coffee, black coffee or how it comes … espresso ☕️ all are really good.
