Crema's Take

Tucked into Portland's NW neighborhood, this minimalist café strikes that rare balance between Instagram-worthy calm and genuine warmth, where the baristas happily craft drinks beyond the menu and the pastries taste like they were baked fresh that morning. Whether you're nursing a Salted Maple Latte while working on your laptop or meeting a friend for their house-made croissants and expertly pulled espresso, the cozy, inviting atmosphere feels like a secret worth the detour. There's even a playful dice game at the register—roll four matching numbers and your meal's on the house.

Minimalist aesthetic cafe! Friendly staff, good chai and matcha, and the whole atmosphere is very cozy and beautiful! At the register you can roll 4 dices and if you get the same 4 #"s "meals on us",what a great idea ❤️

I'm surprised this place wasn't packed because their sandwiches are incredible! Coffee was also delicious and not overly sweet. I really enjoyed the Salted Maple Latte and the Turkey Bacon Brie Croissant. The Brie added such a nice flavor to the sandwich, it really stood out and I would definitely get it again! The inside of the cafe is very cute and clean. I enjoyed the holiday table decor. Service was also quick! You order at the counter and they bring it out to you. Staff was very friendly as well!

This is a lovely spot with a really beautiful, calm interior—perfect for a quiet meet-up. We tried the danish and the egg croissant, and both were absolutely delicious. The pastries were clearly fresh, flaky, and full of flavor. Paired with a great coffee, it made for a perfect little stop. It's a really nice, comfortable place to actually sit and have a conversation

What a cozy little spot! I rode to the climbing gym in heavy rain and was super stoked to curl up in this warm inviting cafe for a tasty breakfast sandwich and a mimosa. The owner's mom was very kind and brought me a wonderful truffle to go with my mimosa.

Had to travel through "War Ravaged" Portland around a train stuck on the tracks to make it here. And damn I am glad that I did! I ordered a coffee drink that wasn't on the menu, and the "El Croissant" and both were seemingly, instantly delivered to my table. The coffee drink, made to absolute perfection (I too am a barista), and the croissant sandwich tasted even better than it looked! Definitely worth passing up 5 other shops on the way, highly recommend!
