Crema's Take

This drive-through-only espresso bar punches well above what you'd expect from its grab-and-go format, with an owner who genuinely remembers customers and creates a warm, personal connection despite the quick service model. Their signature blended drinks—particularly the Java Chip Mocha frappe with generous dark chocolate chips—have clearly become local favorites that people return for repeatedly, while the menu balances creative specialty options with solid traditional espresso drinks and even smoothies for non-coffee folks. It's the kind of place where the convenience of the drive-thru format pairs perfectly with real hospitality, making it a beloved regular stop for Reno coffee lovers.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. Quick-grab spot. Family friendly. Drive-thru.

I had to stop by here because of the name of the establishment. I thought it was a great name and I wanted to support the business because of that. It was kind of hard to figure out how to pull up at first so I reversed in (don't do that) and that lady who helped me was super…
