Crema's Take

Tucked into Gatlinburg, this coffee shop has mastered the art of making visitors feel like locals the moment they walk through the door—the aroma alone pulls people in, and the genuinely warm baristas keep them coming back. Every cup reflects meticulous care, from beans roasted just days before they're brewed to perfectly executed pour overs and espresso drinks that inspire people to buy multiple bags to take home. It's the kind of cozy gathering spot where you can linger with family, meet a friend, or simply sit with exceptional coffee and feel like you've discovered something special.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Family friendly.

The aroma of roasting beans and greeting from the super friendly staff are the first things you experience at this specialty roaster. If you’re looking for the best and freshest coffee beans in town you are at the right spot. They often have a couple of options brewed up to try.

We are so happy that we stumbled upon Little River Coffee Co.! The second we walked in, we were greeted by the friendliest barista who indulged us in our questions about the roasting and history of the spot. We bought some coffee to take home, and she was able to grind the beans…
