Crema's Take

Tucked near the AB brewery in St. Louis, this laid-back spot combines a genuinely cool atmosphere with serious espresso craft and unexpectedly stellar food, from their celebrated biscuits and gravy to fresh lunch options like shrimp po'boys. It's the kind of place where you can linger over a perfectly-made latte, catch up with friends, or grab a quick breakfast—and locals keep coming back because they actually nail both the coffee and the kitchen, with thoughtful touches for dietary preferences too.

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I really wanted to love this spot, the menu had promise, the food itself was actually good, and the space had a laid-back charm. But unfortunately, the overall experience was marred by poor service and a lack of professionalism from staff. When we arrived, there were several…
