Crema's Take
“This Italian-rooted espresso bar thrives on consistency and personality—Terry's morning presence and genuine warmth keep regulars coming back as much as the solid, traditional coffee does. The croissants and pastries are genuinely worth seeking out, though you'll want to be specific about milk ratios on custom drinks to avoid ending up with a cup that's mostly foam. It's a comfortable spot near Madison Square Park where you can linger with quality Italian-style coffee and light food, or grab something quick on your way through the Flatiron.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Parking available.

This is amazing place for Italian foods! Lots of varieties and specialities from expresso, cafe, glacio ice cream, tiramisu, pastries, sausages and cheese! It’s like a heaven for foodies like me! It’s so close to Flatiron Building. Enjoy the view and foods all at once
