Crema's Take

This charming neighborhood gem tucked into a Wilmington strip mall punches well above its weight with homemade pastries, a thoughtfully curated menu spanning traditional espresso drinks to matcha lattes, and genuinely warm service that keeps customers coming back. The space itself is a delightful surprise—decorated with local art and designed for lingering, whether you're meeting friends, working on your laptop, or just soaking in the hometown diner coziness that reviewers can't stop raving about. It's the kind of place that sneaks up on you but immediately feels like a local favorite worth making part of your routine.

The absolute cutest coffee shop with delicious specialty drinks, the best customer service, and a hometown diner feel. Highly recommend! Especially their assortment of homemade pastries!

I’ve been meaning to try this place for a while and I’m so glad I finally did. Homemade treats, tons of coffee options, ample seating, easy parking… what’s not to love? The barista who served me made great suggestions and was super friendly. Carrot cake muffin and cheddar scone were both so good. I’ll be back!

Cute little coffee spot, seating for small groups, plenty of pastry options, and a diverse menu. The espresso was good (not outstanding), the matcha was pretty decent and mixed with a strawberry puree on bottom, the cheesecake brownie was way overpowering in chocolate and could definitely be toned down a lot, the ube scone was delicious but could be a little less crumbly so that it is easier to eat. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The interior, while basic, is arranged nicely to provide privacy at your table, with a comfortable array of seating options, and was very clean. I will definitely return. Thank you!

Wonderful find! Located in a strip mall and a little understated from the outside, but cute on the inside. Enjoyed a hot coffee with oat milk. It was so delicious that I had 2 cups (sadly, no free refills). Excellent assortment of baked goods, which are made in-house. I love a good scone with my coffee, and they had 4 choices. They also offer bubble tea, which I'll have to try on my next visit. Barista was friendly and efficient. Clean bathrooms are a plus. Definitely recommend!

Little roadside coffee place, unsuspecting, but inside it’s so CUTE with decor and local art. My caramel macchiato was delicious, perfectly balanced, not too much foam, and a cute little design on the top. I was impressed with the young woman who made my coffee drink! Would stop again and try a breakfast burrito.l and baked goods. 9/2/23 - they have lavender cold brew! Yum!
