Crema's Take

Strangelove is a charmingly quirky hybrid space that seamlessly blends specialty coffee culture with wine bar vibes, wrapped in a distinctive mid-century modern bohemian aesthetic featuring wood-lined walls and retro green accents. While their house-made syrups and creative drinks like the Mahta latte earn praise, the experience shines brightest during quieter morning hours when you can actually appreciate the comfortable seating and abundant charging outlets perfect for lingering. It's the kind of place that feels equally right for a Sunday morning coffee date or a Wednesday evening wine session—though you might want to visit early to avoid the crowds and loud music that can overwhelm the otherwise cozy, homey vibe.

Felt too crowded, music was loud, AC was too cold. Even though they use figure8 beans, the coffee was underwhelming. Could be better. Nice seating though. No food options.

This place had lots of seating inside and outside. The seats were comfortable and there were multiple outlets for charging. The Mahta latte was good, I liked the glass cup it came in. I hated the breakfast taco, has to be bottom 3 tacos I’ve ever had. If I’m ever here again, I’ll try the pastries instead.

Such a cute, homey cafe/ wine bar with a great sense of mid-century modern bohemian style! Highly recommend for a reading coffee spot or a wine bar for date night!!

Super cute coffee shop!! Came on Sunday at 8am and it wasn’t busy. Lots of seating and loved how they told us all their syrups were house made. The iced vanilla latte was delicious!

Amazing little spot for both coffee and wine. I popped in on a Wednesday afternoon and was immediately impressed with the atmosphere. The walls and ceilings of all wood and the green checkered retro flooring was such a vibe and so cozy. I ordered a glass of orange wine, and as an orange wine fan, I was very satisfied with the quality and ~funkiness~ of the wine (none of that orange wine that just tastes like rose over here!). I found myself hungry and saw that the only food options for that time in the afternoon that wasn’t nuts, pastries, or something really small was a cheese board. I asked about how big it was and the woman at the counter told me it was certainly a two person size but kindly made me a half portion of it and BOY was it amazing. The breads and house seasoned nuts that came with these cheeses were just exceptional (I need to find out who their baker is!) and of course the cheeses delivered. They were so kind and gave me more than a half portion and I left no crumbs! Such a great place to get some work done with coffee or hang with friends or a book over a glass of wine. I cannot wait to be back and cannot recommend Strangelove enough!
