Crema's Take

Tucked away in Latham, The Works Cafe strikes that rare balance between a quick neighborhood stop and a genuine gathering spot, where you can linger over a thoughtfully made smoothie or specialty drink without feeling rushed. The kitchen shines with scratch-made sandwiches—their turkey, bacon, and avocado on sourdough, or hearty vegetarian options draw regulars back again and again—paired with a sunny outdoor seating area that makes it feel less like a cafe pit stop and more like a destination for a proper meal with friends. Whether you're after their famous eggs, inventive smoothies, or just a dependable place where the staff clearly cares about getting things right, this is the kind of local spot that builds loyal followings for good reason.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.

Great spot for good sandwich. I ordered the turkey and bacon with avocado on sourdough and it was excellent. It was nice that they have an area outside to enjoy good weather with your meal.

We go here often. It’s perfect for a little quick stop to grab a bite to eat. The eggs are outstanding. They have lots to choose from bagels, sandwiches, salads, smoothies etc. UPDATE: I used to give it more stars, however it has seemed to be going downhill every visit. The…
