Crema's Take

This Hertel Avenue gem shines brightest as a welcoming third space where dog lovers, families, and remote workers all find their place under cheerful dog-themed decor and plenty of natural light. The staff genuinely seem to care about getting your order right—whether that's pairing your bagel with an unexpected cream cheese flavor or crafting a specialty coffee drink—and they move with impressive speed even when the Friday morning crowd rolls in. It's the kind of neighborhood spot where you can linger over a cappuccino or grab a massive, fresh bagel sandwich on your way out, and either way, you'll feel like a regular.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly.
