Crema's Take

This spacious Albuquerque spot strikes an impressive balance between a serious espresso and pour-over destination and a genuinely welcoming hangout, with a distinctly laid-back vibe enhanced by abundant plants and cacti that make the place feel like a desert sanctuary. Their matcha program stands out as particularly creative (fans still reminisce about seasonal offerings like shaken blueberry matcha), and they're known for generous pours and thoughtful temperature control that shows real care in execution. Whether you're settling in for hours of work or just passing through, the chill atmosphere and quality craft drinks make it easy to understand why everyone from digital nomads to flight attendants keeps coming back.

Little bear is such a good place to get work done and their matcha is incredible!! I miss the shaken blueberry matcha from last spring… bring it back!!

Nice little and yet large coffee shop. Enjoyed a wonder vanilla latte that came out in a bowl. Perfect temp, perfect flavor. Lots of spaces for folks to come in and enjoy social time or do some work in a light, bright environment. Not very loud while we were there

Had a pumpkin spice latte. Tasted good. Service was fine. Fair warning, they really fill up the mugs! It was to the rim and made walking back to my table a practice in being very present lol. Which is not a bad thing. This location had plenty of seating and even though the parking lot was full, I still found off street parking easy and close by. Overall it’s a good coffee shop.

Came in for an afternoon drink after a morning filled with the Balloon Fiesta and I was pleasantly surprised by this place! Loads of plants and cactus line the walls and the coffee delivered in taste and freshness. We got a honey vanilla oat milk latte and a mocha with their signature syrup. Yum!

I’m a flight attendant and I found this little place on Google. Super cute, excellent cold brew (my standard at all the places I visit) and great atmosphere. The vibe is so great and chill. I love the outdoor seating and the art on the walls is so cool. I also ate a red chili breakfast burrito that was great too. I will for sure be back.
