Crema's Take

For The Record transforms coffee into a full sensory experience by pairing exceptional espresso drinks like their standout espresso tonic with carefully curated vinyl and occasional live music that shifts between funk, jazz, and contemporary sounds. Owner Lucas has cultivated a genuinely welcoming space where the crowd feels like insiders—the kind of place where you might stumble into a listening party one visit and become a regular the next. If you want coffee that's taken seriously alongside a community that actually knows your name, this Brooklyn spot delivers on both counts.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast on the menu.

When you come here you are guaranteed to walk out with a smile. The owner, Lucas, is such a genuine human being and you can tell by the way he greets you & the way he remembers you from the moment you walk in. Our recent trip was for Record Store Day, a day that is very fun but…
