Crema's Take
“This San Rafael roastery strikes that perfect balance between being a quick caffeine pit stop and a genuinely welcoming spot to linger over breakfast and conversation. The team clearly takes pride in their craft—they roast in-house and dial in each drink to your preferences, whether you're ordering an expertly pulled espresso or one of their surprisingly sublime specialty lattes. Fresh, made-to-order breakfast and pastries, spacious seating, and staff who actually care about getting your order right make this feel less like a transaction and more like visiting people who happen to make exceptional coffee.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Lovely coffee shop, with indoor and outdoor seating. Evidently a local hangout. Lots of dog owners on the patio. Very tasty toasted bagels and delicious lattes! What a great way to start the day!
The absolute best chai lattes (Pacheco Plaza)! The best employees and their scones can’t be beat! Seating indoors or outdoors available. Plenty of parking but lunchtime is sometimes hard to find a spot close by.
Great place i grab my coffees to go usually. They have seating plenty of fun here love the people who work here so nice
This is better than the Seattle place. Lots of room. Lots of breakfast choices and all fresh, not frozen. There was s mall issue with my order and they immediatley made it right and were amazingly nice. My matcha was great. Will come again.
I visited the Ignacio location, where the owner, Tami, is cheerful, friendly, and actively involved in the community. Sarah, a team member, is exceptionally excellent. It’s incredible how much a personal touch can make a difference. Thank you, Tami, Sarah, and the entire team…
