Griffin Coffee and Bakery
3027 W Cary St, Richmond, VA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into a charming Carytown corner, this welcoming spot nails the art of hospitality with staff who literally invite you in from the street and a thoughtfully designed space that lets you choose your vibe—cozy front room or traditional café feel in back. Their house-made lemonade is legendary (especially with a lavender shot), the lattes arrive silky and perfectly crafted, and the pastries, from buttery pistachio croissants to hand-sized chocolate chip cookies, are both generous and surprisingly affordable. It's the kind of place where excellent coffee, creative signatures like their signature lemonade, and genuine warmth make every visit feel like discovering a well-kept secret.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

This was such an amazing Cary st. find. The staff quite literally waved us in from the street, everything was immaculate from the vibes to the service. I purchased the Griffin lemonade and baklava, loved them both!
This place is phenomenal. Their lemonade is absolutely the best I've ever had, especially with a shot of lavender in it. And their lattes are also just as good, very creamy n smooth. Also, their baklava?? Omg, so good. Highly recommend if you're in the area.
Lovely Brand New Coffee and Tea Shop in Carytown! The unique layout of this space has had lots of business turnover in the recent years, I’m hoping this shop is here for the long haul. They’ve made the downstairs space comfortable with thick cushions that line the walls,…
