Crema's Take
“Rob Diovonnie has carved out a devoted following in Durham by mastering both the fundamentals and the creative flourishes—their espresso work is precise and their pour overs are thoughtful, but they're equally proud of their signature creative drinks that keep regulars coming back. The shop strikes that rare balance of being serious about coffee while staying approachable, and their pastries and cookies feel like they belong on the same counter, baked with the same attention to quality.

What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. Pastries on the menu.
