Crema's Take

Dorothy's Can Do Cafe is a heartwarming neighborhood gem where exceptional coffee and lovingly handmade cookies come together with genuine purpose—this is a place that nourishes both your taste buds and your sense of community. The staff's warmth is as genuine as their pastries, and every visit supports meaningful causes while you enjoy surprisingly affordable, delicious drinks that range from traditional espresso classics to creative specialty options. Whether you're grabbing a quick lavender latte or settling in with a box of their renowned cookies (the potato chip variety is legendary), Dorothy's feels like the kind of local spot where everyone is treated like family.

If you want to support an amazing cause while having the MOST AFFORDABLE and delicious latte or other delightful warm/iced drink, buy a lavender candle, chocolate bark, banana bread, other human sweets and treats or dog biscuits with simple wholesome ingredients (dog walker here- I’ve tested these out on my🐾 clients and they all approved ✅) and have a lovely chat with the staff that makes you feel cared for and like you’re part of the community- then this is the place for you.

Purchased cookie boxes for holiday gifts, and of course had to get one for us, too. I can’t decide which is my favorite - they are all amazing! Plus the dogs love the biscuits.

My partner went on a neighborhood stroll to check out some bakeries and Dorothy’s was such a treat! Thank you to the staff for prepping and selling such wonderful cookies. The potato chip cookie was our favorite, we’ll be back soon!
