Crema's Take

This Tacoma drive-thru gem punches way above expectations with genuinely excellent coffee—their house blend "Wide Await" is something customers actually wax poetic about—plus craveable breakfast sandwiches like the legendary Smokeshow that locals swear by. The team clearly puts care into everything from their signature creative drinks (think brown sugar oat milk lattes) to their pastries and full breakfast menu, making it the kind of place that surprises travelers passing through and keeps regulars coming back. It's an unpretentious spot in an unlikely location, but the quality of the coffee and food speaks louder than the surroundings.

This place was SO good. Came across it while searching for a decent breakfast and coffee on the go passing through town and this surpassed my expectations! In a sort of strange part of town but the service was so friendly and fast! The coffee was delicious and well-balanced and the breakfast sandwich was freshly made on a pillowy soft roll. The picture doesn’t do it justice, it made me do a happy dance while I ate it. Cured my hang over and again, the staff were kind and patient! Especially for having a line of cars! Highly recommend stopping here and would love to come back!

I stopped by with my brother and was so impressed with this drive thru in Tacoma! We got a chicken sandwich and a cream cheese bagel with SF vanilla latte and a Brown sugar oat milk iced latte! The coffee was amazing!!! I would also mention the staff is so kind and sweet who go out of the way to make you a lovely pump me up drink for the day as you drive thru! ❤️ really enjoyed it!

I stopped by while visiting from out of town and was blown away by how delicious the food and drinks are here. I got an iced white chocolate americano with cream and it was seriously the best coffee I’ve ever had. The syrup, to coffee, to ice, to cream ratio should be studied. And not to forget the fiesta breakfast burrito… served with a small packet of cholula and garlic cream cheese. I inhaled it and literally dreamt about it a few nights later. I soon came to find out that the burritos are fresh, never frozen, which is so awesome. You can definitely taste it. I also got a Wide Awake Cafe hoodie and LOVE it. It’s made with high quality material — thick, soft, and so freaking cute. This business is obviously curated with love because everything is at the top of its game.

The Smokeshow breakfast sandwhich is worth taking the time to leave a review - it’s that good! Like every ingredient tastes great (everything roll, smoked bacon, eggs) individually to make the ultimate fresh and filling breakfast meal!! The person who helped me was super nice about informing me about the menu since it was my first time. Will definitely be back trying other things on the menu I was curious about.

Wide await coffee is literally the best coffee I have ever had. And i've had coffee at a multitude of places. this coffee is just different. almost out of this world. It's made with love.Customer service is fabulous , always served with a smile and laughter. everyone that works there is very attentive.And you can tell that this coffee stand is owned by someone who pours their heart and soul into it , definitely shows that it's loved for the establishment.And for its customers as well, I recommend that you try this coffee, even if you're not close by.It's worth the drive.
