Crema's Take

This espresso-focused gem in Cincinnati has earned its stellar reputation through meticulous craft and genuine hospitality—baristas like Cory and Katrina take real time to explain their beans and execute pour overs and lattes with impressive skill. The cozy atmosphere pairs perfectly with their thoughtfully sourced coffee and fresh light food, creating the kind of space where you're equally happy lingering over a single cup or grabbing an excellent bacon egg and cheese sandwich. Whether you're a visiting coffee enthusiast or a local looking for Cincinnati's best, Kings Arms delivers an experience that feels both unpretentious and genuinely excellent.

Dropped into Kings Arms looking for a great pour over and that's exactly what we found. Cory took great care to explain the beans they had available and expertly prepared our drinks while we chatted about the city as we were visiting Cincinnati for the first time. The coffee was excellent and it was prepared exactly how it should be. If you're anywhere near Cincinnati and you appreciate quality coffee this is the place to be.

Definitely recommend. First time here. Coffee used was absolutely delicious and Katrina made a hot latte with a wonderful steamed milk top that lasted the entire cup. Excellent!!

This place is so cute, the bacon egg and cheese sandwich was delicious, and the earl grey tea was good. The service was excellent and friendly. Definitely recommend checking it out! It’s worth the price and the bonus of supporting a small, local business.

Best Cincinnati coffee shop experience, hands-down. As an out-of-town coffee nerd, I came here hoping to find some crazy unique coffee and and I was blown away by what I got. I asked Cory what he had on offer for pour-overs and he walked me through all *six* options he had at the time. Choosing was difficult, but less so when it's so easy to tell that there's no wrong choice. Ultimately had 2 pour-overs and a macchiato during my nearly all-day stay at the cafe and everything was something worth talking about. The cherry on top was the shop vibes & fellow customers. Nearly everyone that came in was hunting for good quality coffee AND casual socializing. It was so pleasant sipping good brews, working, and then being periodically interrupted by very nice, interesting folks. Cory's wife and kids came by at one point and the cafe was an absolute joy with all of them coloring, chatting to customers, and playing in the comfy space. It just hits the mark, *especially* as a third-wave coffee nerd, but even moreso for the sense of community and pleasant vibes overall from the cafe experience. A must-go for anyone who loves coffee and cafes!

Kings Arms Coffee Roasters is an absolute gem! Their latte was the best I’ve ever had—smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. The baked goods were amazing, fresh, and full of flavor. If you’re a coffee lover, you must try a Cortado—it’s expertly crafted and incredibly satisfying. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make this the perfect spot to enjoy a top-tier coffee experience. Highly recommend!
