Crema's Take
“Audrey's legendary service (seriously, multiple reviews begged the owners to give her a raise) makes this feel less like a coffee transaction and more like catching up with a friend who happens to pull perfect espresso shots. The pastry game is genuinely impressive—fresh-baked scones, muffins, and chocolate chip cookies that smell incredible when you arrive at opening, plus Thursday biscuits and gravy that locals won't shut up about. If you're in Solvang looking for a cozy spot that nails both the coffee and the hospitality, this is the obvious choice.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

Delicious fresh scones, muffins and cookies. Coffee is great. My favorites are the espresso scones. The biscuits and gravy on Thursdays is delicious! It’s the very best coffee shop in Solvang because you’ll feel very welcome there.
Honestly, I am shocked to see any negative reviews. I was in town for a week and this place was my go-to. If you get there when they open at 6am, the shop smells like fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. I ordered one with my iced Vanilla, Lavender, Oakmilk Latte and the cookie…
I had two lattes with honey, and they were delicious! The cafe has a nice, cozy atmosphere—perfect for relaxing and enjoying a quiet moment with your coffee. Great spot to unwind and savor a well-made drink.
My husband and I came here for our 15 year anniversary. The owner was really sweet. I got a lavender latte and my hubby got a pumpkin spice latte. I asked her about restaurants and she was really helpful. I will definitely be back. Thank you for everything!
