Crema's Take

Tucked into Newport's riverfront, this espresso-focused spot has mastered the art of craft cocktails and specialty coffee with equal finesse—their blackberry smash and espresso martinis have become pilgrimage-worthy drinks. The recently remodeled space radiates warmth with its inviting patio and genuinely friendly staff who make both marathon runners from out of town and dedicated travelers from across the country feel like regulars. Whether you're settling in for a slow afternoon or stopping by for a creative signature drink, the vibe here strikes that rare balance between laid-back and expertly executed.

My wife and I were out from Philadelphia for the Flying Pig Marathon and stumbled upon the Riparian while we were exploring the area. Incredible vibes and drinks! The staff was super friendly and gave us recommendations of places in the city/area to go. They even delivered a game 7 win for the Sixers! That is service that cannot be beat!! The Riparian is a must visit!

Drove out from Phoenix for the blackberry smash and it's to die for.
