Crema's Take

This stylish Washington, DC bistro excels at the art of a leisurely breakfast, where buttery croissants and fresh pastries pair beautifully with well-executed lattes in a calm, inviting atmosphere that feels equally welcoming whether you're settling in solo or bringing the whole family. The kitchen shines brightest in the morning—think divine omelette ratatouille and generous waffles—making it the kind of neighborhood spot where Dave (or Geraldine) will remember your name and genuinely guide you toward what's worth ordering. With both indoor and outdoor seating framing the experience, it's designed for those mornings when you want to linger over coffee rather than rush.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Visited here for a late lunch but appears the breakfast is the highlight. I had the salmon which was well done however, amply lacked flavour except some salt and lime. Would only recommend their sweets and pastries. We enjoyed the creme brulee.

The service was great, Dave was very informative & recommended the salmon for lunch- it was yummy! The cheeseburger was reportedly the best he has had & that's quite the compliment. We also had the creme brulee & Pistachio tart- they were ok. The ambiance was great!!

Wow, just wow!!!! Everything was fantastic from beginning to end! We were promptly greeted by the lovely hostess who offered us to sit indoor or outdoors, our 9 year old chose inside. We quietly mentioned we were celebrating our daughter’s birthday and our server Luke went…
