Crema's Take

“Motor Oil Coffee on Albany State Street is an espresso-focused spot that does solid specialty drinks like their Honey Racer Latte, though the execution can be inconsistent and the atmosphere could use some polish—a little background music and more attentive service would go a long way. The pastries and light food are quick grab options, though portions can be surprisingly modest for the price. Staff friendliness varies, but when they're on, they're genuinely helpful, making it a decent neighborhood option if you catch them on a good day.”

Nice café. Maybe they can put some background music. Waitress was a bit cold.
