Crema's Take

Tucked into Cincinnati's vibrant OTR neighborhood, this coffee shop-art gallery hybrid wraps you in gallery walls and cozy lounging spaces that make hours disappear effortlessly. Beyond stellar traditional espresso drinks, they're known for creative matcha innovations like their pistachio and banana bloom versions that feel like discoveries rather than standard orders. The staff's genuine warmth and the intentionally quiet, gallery-filled atmosphere create the rare sweet spot where you're equally welcome lingering over a first date or settling in for a serious work session.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.

A coffee shop/bar/art space mixed into one in OTR, filled with artwork and cozy lounging areas. The pistachio matcha was light and refreshing, and the banana bloom matcha was uniquely banana-forward. A lively coffee spot with plenty of character and charm.
