Crema's Take

Tucked in Sunnyside, this Algerian gem serves as a genuine gathering place where owner Amina and her team treat every visitor like family, transforming a simple café visit into a homecoming experience complete with traditional North African dishes like crispy boureks and comforting rechta. The kitchen honors authentic recipes with real care—diners rave about flavors that spark nostalgia and warmth—while Algerian music and unhurried service create the perfect backdrop for lingering conversations over coffee and pastries.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Food, service and atmosphere is 10/10. The food was incredible- just wow! I really felt so much nostalgia with each dish- one that brings me back home. The service was top- I met both the pasterie chef and owner who were so kind and welcoming. This is my new spot!

The most incredible experience! Amina and Halim not only make unbelievable food, but are also the warmest hosts. I felt like I was visiting family. My jme in NY was limited, but I'm so happy I got to visit this amazing place. I really hope to visit again! Love from Scotland
