Crema's Take

This Urbana roastery has earned serious devotion from its community, and for good reason: they source exceptional single origins at prices that feel almost too fair, paired with the kind of knowledgeable, genuinely warm staff who actually enjoy helping you find your next favorite bean. Whether you're grabbing a quick espresso, diving into a pour over, or loading up on whole beans and brewing equipment to take home, the experience feels personal and unpretentious—the type of place where the owners John and Toni remember your name and what you're working toward in your coffee journey.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Quick-grab spot.

Love this coffee! Purchased it as a fundraiser from a niece and realized it's from Champaign so drove over to grab some!

The best vanilla latte in C-U, hands down! I’m glad they chose The Yard in Urbana for their cafe! Dreaming of a drive thru, but the baristas are all so nice to chat with while I wait inside.

Great single origin coffees at a great price. The store also has all kinds of great coffee brewing products and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. A great stop for fellow (coffee)pot heads. Also, have a good tea selection

Good coffee for the price. Their online ordering system is fast and convinient. Minimal interaction required to get your order.

I just love Columbia Street Roastery and I feel fortunate that we have this gem in our town. I typically buy ground flavored coffee but recently purchased an espresso machine. John and Toni have both been so helpful (and patient - my husband and I have lots of questions) on this…

I went here to get some coffee grounds as a gift and the workers were extremely kind and helpful in the choosing process! The coffee is great quality and tastes amazing, highly recommend!
