Crema's Take
“Tucked beside the Claremont hotel, this relaxed neighborhood spot serves Equator coffee that hits that sweet spot between smooth and flavorful, paired with genuinely excellent pastries like their standout chocolate pain au chocolat. The staff here genuinely care—reviewers consistently praise their warmth and attentiveness—making it equally perfect for a quick caffeine fix or settling in with games and friends, though the ordering line can occasionally move slower than you'd hope. It's the kind of place that wins people over as a hidden gem, especially for those who stumbled past the crowded bakeries down the street.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

The cutest little coffee shop attached to the Claremont. The service was impeccable. Attentive, kind, friendly, and warm. The drinks were delicious. Plenty of little snacks for hungry mouths. Games for playing. My wife would get a soy cappuccino in a ceramic mug every morning.…

Originally, I tried to go to the super famous bakery down the street, but it was incredibly crowded so I came here. I ordered the chocolate au pain croissant, and it was absolutely delicious! So filling and so tasty.
