Crema's Take

This charming Greenville spot captures authentic French café vibes with oven-fresh pastries that locals genuinely rave about—think buttery croissants and pan au chocolat that arrive warm from their own ovens. It's equally suited for a quick morning grab or lingering over coffee with friends, though note that their breakfast-focused menu has some timing limitations. The standout here is really the quality of their baked goods and that distinctive Parisian atmosphere that keeps people coming back.

Fantastic pastries. I was the first person there on Sunday morning and had my pick of all of the wonderful things coming out of their ovens. I did pan au Chocolat, croissant and danish. Fantastic! I can't wait to go back.

I was excited to try this place, but the experience was disappointing. We arrived at 1:40pm I asked if they could make a simple ham and cheese croissant, but they wouldn’t because breakfast items are only sold until a certain time. Instead, I was offered a panini that came on a baguette. It was very dry, the cheese was dry as well (like when a sandwich has been refrigerated and reheated), and it was overloaded with ham. The almond croissant had barely any almond filling and was noticeably salty and chewy which means not fresh. We’ve had almond croissants many times before, and this one just didn’t taste right. Several of the fruit pastries also looked dry. Everything looks very attractive, but unfortunately the flavor doesn’t match the presentation or the price point. The Earl Grey was $4 for a small cup and there were no alternatives to white sugar. I don’t mind paying premium prices for quality and freshness, but this didn’t deliver. Not worth what they charge. Won’t be coming back.

I’m not exaggerating — this might be one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. I just died and went to heaven!! I ordered the prosciutto croissant sandwich and it was absolutely MASSIVE (literally the size of my head!) and every single bite was perfection. The salty prosciutto, the sweetness of the tomatoes, the slight bitterness of the greens, and that buttery, flaky, crisp croissant… all of it together was chef’s kiss. I inhaled a few croissant flakes because it was SO DELICIOUS and honestly? Zero regrets. The macchiato I ordered with it was smooth and cozy — perfect pairing for such an indulgent sandwich. The vibes inside are warm and charming, the staff was friendly, and you can tell everything here is made with care. I’m absolutely coming back (and taking home a chocolate croissant if they haven’t sold out!). Easily a 10/10 experience. A new Greenville favorite for sure.

This place’s vibe reminded me of an authentic cafe in Paris. The pastries and croissants are so fresh and the smell was simply divine. The croissant sandwich was huge and very reasonably priced. The raspberry tart was literal perfection. I didn’t get a photo of it because I inhaled it instantly. Highly recommend. Delicious !
