Crema's Take
“This Main St. location punches above typical chain expectations with genuinely excellent croissants and baked goods that taste like they came from a neighborhood bakery rather than a corporate operation. Beyond their stellar coffee, the matcha and chai drinks deserve their own reputation, and the leisurely, light-filled space makes it feel like a genuine gathering spot rather than a grab-and-go counter. Fair warning: this particular outpost runs a trimmer menu than sister locations, so some signature dishes might not make the cut on your visit.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

It was one of those cold, dreary Cambridge mornings, around 8 a.m., when the city feels quiet and slightly muted, wrapped in winter’s gray. I wasn’t planning on coffee at all—I already had my day mapped out—but as I walked past Tatte Bakery & Cafe, the smell of freshly brewed…
This is one of those nice chains that doesn't look or feel like a chain operation. Light, fluffy, fresh and very well-made croissants as well as other baked goods. Their coffee drinks are also excellent with yummy lattes and international caliber espresso. Worth a visit if you…
My coworker and I came 2 days in a row to this location because we loved the food so much! Their matcha and chai are great and I highly recommend their summer overnight oats. I wish I lived in Boston, but it's probably better that I don't because otherwise I'd visit there…
I stopped by to order a few different treats for my team event. And I came back to pick up the next day. If you want delivery, you need to order through the app (doordash / uber eat). I ordered a butter nutella cookie, butter cranberry and pistachio cookie, tiramisu cup, mocha…
