Crema's Take

Tucked near Jersey City's waterfront, this espresso-focused spot draws crowds for its boldly caffeinated drinks and creative signatures like the goat latte with cinnamon and maple that keep regulars coming back. The team moves with impressive speed and genuine warmth, pairing exceptional coffee with quality pastries and sandwiches that feel sourced with care, making it equally perfect for a quick morning hit or a lingering conversation over a perfectly pulled shot.

This was recommended by a biker friend who happens to ride nearby and saw massive crowd so had to try! The place is to die for! The hospitality and the food both were above my expectations! Had a spinach bread which was so fresh even at 7am! Also ordered the veggie bagel, it was hard to chew but the taste was good. The coconut oat milk coffee and white mocha were better than Starbucks! They also have a few games and we played chess! Amazing morning Kudos to the Grind!

This is my absolute favorite coffee shop. Coffee is always amazing, they always got some yummy treats I assume are from a local bakery, and they don’t skimp on the caffeine (quad shot in a large latte). Above all else, the service is insane; I always feel welcomed and by the second or third visit my usual coffee order had been memorized. The owner is a genuine and caring person, he even remembered that I had hurt my foot a couple weeks from a previous visit and asked about it when I came in again. Just amazing, can’t recommend enough. They also have multiple milk alternatives and sugar free syrups which I always appreciate. For me it’s just a matter of healthy choices, for others it could be a must (diabetes, allergies, etc…), so big props on that as well. They’ve got a large seating area with different sized tables for all sorts of groups/activities (I believe there’s smaller tables with outlet access so you could do some work from here as well). Can’t recommend enough 👌

Lovely place. We had the ube horchata and the goat latte (which has cinnamon, maple syrup and vanilla). Both drinks were tasty. What stood out most to us was the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. Kudos to the team on that! Would definitely recommend this place.

Just a few minutes from the Liberty science center and the light rail with excellent coffee and even better sandwiches! I got an iced americano which was delicious, as well as the Lafayette sandwich. The sandwich was unbelievable, and I’m definitely coming back to try the other options! Plenty of seating and the employees were very nice.
