Crema's Take

Nestled in South Lake Tahoe, this cozy neighborhood spot radiates genuine warmth with inspirational messages adorning the walls and a staff that genuinely seems happy to see you. Beyond solid, satisfying coffee, they're known for generous, craveable breakfast items—think handheld burritos bigger than your fist and creative dishes like huevos rancheros with brisket—that make it feel less like a grab-and-go caffeine stop and more like a reason to linger over your morning.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Delicious and healthy gluten free breakfast bowl! Loved the fresh greens on top and the surprise of the purple root veggies on the bottom. The mocha latte was exactly what my heart needed for this cold weather 💕
