Crema's Take

This beachside independent coffee shop delivers serious tropical vibes with reggae music, protected outdoor seating, and that intoxicating aroma of fresh coffee that hits you before you even walk in. While the drinks are genuinely delicious and the atmosphere feels like a hidden gem tucked away in a complex of other local spots, consistency seems to be their Achilles heel—customer experiences range from exceptional service to occasional standoffishness. It's the kind of place that rewards early visits or off-peak timing to fully appreciate the chill, almost secret-garden vibe and their specialty offerings like the Campfire drink.

Just nasty. The blonde woman making drinks was standoffish and rude, and the drinks were terrible. I ordered an iced latte, and was given an iced cold brew. She got defensive and rude when I asked why she’s using cold brew when I ordered a latte. The cold brew was extremely watery and weak, and the drinks had an insane amount of syrup in them, even after I asked her to add more cold brew. It was undrinkable. Premade Monin syrups are not what I’d expect from a specialty coffee shop either. Making house made syrups is very easy. The hot latte was okay, but I would not recommend coming here.

Great outdoor seating in a protected tropical enclave. Reggae background music, the complete beachside vibe.

Delicious coffee!! Great customer service. Definitely a vibe here. Theres also an outside area where kids can play. This place is attached to a few other spots nearby which makes for a fun day! Definitely recommend

Definitely a chill atmosphere. Feels almost hidden walking to the back of the building to find the front entrance. You can smell the coffee from outside, it's wonderful. Ordered a campfire, white mocha with toasted marshmallow, definitely a good decision. Feels like a place the locals hang out. The lady working the counter was quick. I didn't stand there for long before I had my cup. Definitely made my morning, thank you!

Cute place. We got here around 9:45 on Saturday morning. Long line inside. Took about 30 minutes to get to the counter. Coffee was okay. Not bad, not the best I’ve had. Girls were super nice taking the order. We ordered kolaches. Got them and they were cold in several spots still…. They do have a cute little boutique shop inside.
