Crema's Take

This Carrboro spot has cultivated a genuinely welcoming atmosphere where cycling enthusiasts and laptop workers alike feel at home, with a young staff that treats every visitor like a regular. Beyond solid espresso drinks, the kitchen shines with thoughtfully prepared food—from Instagram-worthy avocado toast to a standout farro and roast vegetable bowl—proving this is a place where both coffee and cooking get real attention. The vibe strikes that rare balance between casual and intentional, where you can settle in for hours or grab something genuinely delicious on your way out.

Pretty good. If you're into sport cycling, this place speaks to you. The quiche is awesome. Other foods can be really tasty. Coffee's aight. And the young staff are always friendly. Definitely feels overpriced for what comes out on the plate. A single pancake costs over $5 for cryin out loud, and they charge for coffee refills now. I'd just like to get more for the money. I've also never had a fresh baked good here. The scones and muffins are pretty to look at, but they're *always* super dry, like they came out the oven three days ago. It's weird, because for years now every bakery I've been to sells not-fresh items as day olds at a mark down, and there are really great bakeries nearby setting high standards (eg Joe Van Gogh, Cup a Joe). So, Breakaway is good from time to time, but you're paying top dollar like it's a real privilege.

This was cute spot. Probably the prettiest avocado toast I’ve ever had and very tasty. The smoothie was so good!

I usually go to the Breakaway on 501/15, but today I met a friend and we went to Carrboro Breakaway. We both got the FARRO AND ROAST VEGETABLE BOWL, and wow - it was so very good. (maybe next time I will ask for no dressing on the lettuce - not really needed) We both carried more than ½ home with us (it was a good size). The kale was really kale chips - which is exactly what I love. Lovely presentation too! I will be back.

This place is amazing. Their attention to detail is spot on. The lattes are crafted with love. The portions are plentiful and always enough to bring home the extra. The desserts are delectable. This is a wonderful local business to support.

Saturday morning and we got a table immediately, the girl at the entrance was charming, the service in general was really nice! The vibe is great and beautiful. The food yummy! Everything I had I recommend it. First the basil latte with and almond peach pastry was good, the drip coffee is refilled , so you can grab the small size. The yogurt fruit and granola bowl (add coconut) too much honey for my taste but great! The Amy’s scramble one with toast and one with greens delicious!
