Crema's Take
“The owner Arash's genuine warmth sets the tone for everything here—he'll happily serve you outside regular hours and treat you like family, which explains the perfect 5-star reviews. You're getting legitimately good coffee and freshly made breakfast (their avocado and salmon toast is a standout) in a charming historic building that feels like a cozy mountain lodge should. It's only open Friday nights through Sunday mornings, so plan accordingly, but locals and through-travelers alike make it worth the timing.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Arash I hope I’m spelling that correctly (the owner) was so accommodating, he took us in outside of his regular business hours fed us and made sure we weren’t thirsty. The service was above and beyond the food, drinks and atmosphere were even better. This was a highlight of our…
