Crema's Take
“This roastery-only operation pulls serious espresso enthusiasts with a rotating selection of single-origins that emphasize clarity and complexity—the Beirut bloom has regulars raving about its floral sweetness. The knowledgeable staff will walk you through their whole operation and talk you through each bean, making it feel less like a coffee shop and more like a masterclass you can actually drink. If you're after milk-based drinks or want to linger for hours, go elsewhere, but if you want to taste what exceptional roasting tastes like, this is worth the trip.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.
