Crema's Take
“Tucked near the museum with a cheerful yellow aesthetic, this spot excels at both coffee and a thoughtfully curated breakfast menu featuring creative vegetarian options like their standout flowers omelette and braised leeks. The real magic happens in the sculpture garden patio, where you can linger over an espresso or cold brew in the shade, making it equally perfect for solo work sessions or leisurely brunches with friends. Small but exciting menu, knowledgeable staff, and consistently excellent execution across both drinks and food keeps locals and visitors coming back.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

See all on Google →Great food, friendly staff, and outstanding service. You don't have to pay for the museum if you don't want to visit. Enter and exit by the side (North). The Tuna Melt and Lobster Roll were very good as well as the best Guac & Chips we have ever had!
Exceptional experience. Quiet atmosphere, reserved for 11AM before the crowds. My Brunch choice was beautifully presented, Australian coffee with quite an Italian history. And the best surprise was a Herb Alpert sculpture in outdoor courtyard we dined in.
Food is delicious and loads of great vegetarian options. I had the flowers omelette and braised leeks both great. Advise booking ahead. Comfortable for solo diners.
Beautiful hidden spot and delicious food. Loved sitting outside in the sculpture garden in the shade. Decor is so cute inside as well as the menu is small but exciting. Had a citrus salad with a jalapeño dressing and perfectly grilled salmon. Very friendly and welcoming staff.…

What a beautiful restaurant inside and out! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We went for the breakfast menu and ordered eggs Benedict, an omelet with bacon, cinnamon roll and Bloody Mary drink. Presentation was nice but the food and Bloody Mary were really bland and…
