4 Locust Ave, Mill Valley, CA
Crema's Take
“This four-decade institution has earned fierce loyalty for its consistently excellent breakfast and lunch, with devotees returning daily for their legendary hash browns and fresh, generous portions. The atmosphere strikes that rare balance between quick-service efficiency and leisurely comfort, with genuinely laid-back staff who make both solo coffee drinkers and lingering families feel equally welcome. While pricing runs a bit high, the quality ingredients and genuine care in preparation keep people coming back—even flying in from across the country.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I love supporting the little guy, but this place was just okay. Service was definitely not overly friendly. Food and coffee were just okay. Very overpriced. ~22$ + tip for a small breakfast burrito some bagged home fries and a coffee. Average....
