Cream & Amber
1605 Mainstreet, Hopkins, MN
Crema's Take
“Cream & Amber blends coffee, books, and an unexpectedly welcoming vibe into one cozy Hopkins spot where baristas bring your drink to you while you browse curated shelves and hunt for a "Blind Date with a Book." Beyond the excellent specialty coffee and creative drinks, what keeps people coming back is the genuine sense of community—this is a place that celebrates diversity, supports its staff, and makes everyone from solo laptop workers to friend groups feel genuinely safe and wanted.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Family friendly. Wifi.
