Crema's Take

La Prima Tazza feels like the coffee shop that was already beloved before specialty coffee became trendy, with a real depth of offerings that goes beyond typical café fare—their matcha with strawberry syrup is a customer favorite that shows real creativity. The welcoming manager and dog-friendly policy create a genuine hometown atmosphere where you can linger over a pour-over or grab something quick, and at economical prices that make quality coffee actually accessible for a college town community.

An old school coffee shop that’s been around since before coffee was cool. My Lawrence Kansas go-to. The coffee selection has real depth. Small with a college town atmosphere.

Loved this coffee shop! The manager is incredibly welcoming and makes the place feel like home. It’s dog-friendly, which is a huge plus, and the prices are very economical for the quality you get. Great coffee, great atmosphere, and an all-around lovely spot to relax.

Coffee was very good. We enjoyed being downtown in a hometown space with friends. It got kind of loud but I think that was just us...😬

There must be an onery ghost 👻that lives here. Some sort of trickery was making everyone drop things while we were visiting. 🙃 Could have just been the cold 🥶 weather. Which made the coffee even more delightful. I had never been here but saw an article in the Lawrence times and had to try after seeing their recommendation.

Great coffee, affordable prices, and even better service! I absolutely love their matcha — pro tip: always add strawberry syrup to your green matcha; it’s a total game-changer. It’s the perfect spot to study or work, and they even have the cutest dog named Noodle. Honestly, I pretend I’m there for the coffee, but I’m really just there for Noodle… though I’m pretty sure he doesn’t like me back. It’s fine, I’m just crying inside. 🐶💚
