Crema's Take

Tucked into a quiet office building in Charlotte, this is the kind of neighborhood spot where you can settle in with a meticulously pulled pour over or dive deep into their espresso flights—a clever tasting experience that lets you compare multiple single-origins side by side. The spacious, relaxed atmosphere and genuinely warm staff make it feel less like a caffeine pit stop and more like your personal coffee laboratory, especially if you're the type who wants to spend an afternoon exploring why that Ethiopian tastes so different from their other offerings.

What a great little coffee shop! I stopped in for an afternoon pour over (Ethiopia) - great flavor profile and made perfectly. They were a little light on snacks but the cookie I had was good. The barista was excellent and super fast! Highly recommend.

I came in the morning to get some work done and the atmosphere was great not a lot of people and I felt really relaxed while I was here the employees were really nice while I was there and the coffee was delicious the iced caramel latte was definitely my favorite. 100% would recommend this place to anyone who likes a place to get some work done in a relaxing environment with coffee

The pumpkin spice frappe with macadamia milk was not very good. Service was fine. And atmosphere was also fine. But the pumpkin spice muffin was really good.

Spacious and quiet cafe attached to some office building. Tried their snickerdoodle (pictured after stirring) and paradise lattes, both very good. Snickerdoodle has the caramel like and chocolate flavors, whereas paradise is also sweetened with a purple foam flavor on top. I don’t know if it’s ube or lavender. Both good depending on your taste but I was more partial to the Snickerdoodle. Anyhow good options as seen on the menu. I would definitely come back to try something else.

Loved the espresso flight - 3 double espressos - loved them! All three of them were very smooth and yet very different. There were a total of 5 different espresso choices and it was hard to not try all of them, but I was already over my limit :-) The staff was great and the seating area was nice and relaxing. I'll be back and I highly recommend visiting this place if you like espresso drinks!
