Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused spot has earned its stellar reputation through genuinely skilled baristas who treat each drink like a craft project and each customer like a friend, creating an unpretentious vibe that locals keep coming back to for years. The cozy, granola-tinged space feels like a pocket of old Salt Lake City charm, offering everything from meticulously pulled shots to creative specialty drinks at prices that won't break the bank. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or settling in with a pastry and good company, the real draw here is the combination of seriously good coffee and people who actually care about making your visit special.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

I like their black coffee medium roast. Cute space with granola feel! Cozy interior that retains the charm of SLC before Starbucks and Beans and Brew took over! Best part? Free ground coffee for pick up for gardening!! Why don't every coffee shop do that??
