Crema's Take

Resident Coffee Roasters is a beautifully designed Gainesville haven where meticulous espresso work meets creative cultural fusion, featuring inventive drinks like horchata lattes alongside creative masa-forward breakfast dishes that deserve their own culinary acclaim. The warm, hip atmosphere—enhanced by Cuban music and thoughtful design—makes it equally perfect for lingering over a pour-over solo or gathering with friends over flawlessly pulled shots and excellent brunch. It's the kind of specialty coffee destination that has earned genuine devotion from its community, blending serious coffee craftsmanship with genuine hospitality and surprising culinary ambition.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu.
