Formula Espresso
550 Light St, Baltimore, MD
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused spot inside the Royal Sonesta has won over guests with genuinely stellar coffee craftsmanship and baristas Terry and Adrianne who bring real warmth to every order. While the pastries are brought in rather than made in-house (and quality can be inconsistent), the coffee itself—whether it's a silky vanilla latte or a perfectly pulled breve—is what keeps people coming back and raving. It's the kind of hotel café that actually matters, delivering specialty drinks and genuine hospitality in a convenient grab-and-go setting.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. Quick-grab spot.
