Crema's Take

Tucked away in Salem, ACME Cafe is a lovingly executed vintage Americana spot where scratch-made everything—from biscuits and gravies to house-made jams—tastes like genuine care went into every plate. The retro diner aesthetic strikes that sweet spot between nostalgic charm and contemporary cool, and watching the team craft your breakfast at the counter adds theater to an already memorable meal. Fair warning: this place has earned fierce loyalty from repeat visitors, so expect to understand why folks are willing to drive from neighboring towns just for another visit.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I am surprised this place doesn’t have higher ratings. It’s hands down one of the most epic places to eat! I’ve been here 4 times over the past 6 months, and my family still goes on about how tasty the food is. The french toast is out of this world, chicken fried breakfast and…
