Crema's Take

Sleepy Opossum's rotating seasonal menu and commitment to locally-sourced ingredients mean you're eating what's actually in its prime right now, not what's been sitting in a distributor's warehouse. The brunch scene here is genuinely worth the wait—creative, fresh, and executed with the kind of care you'd expect from someone who actually owns the place and cares about every plate that goes out. Come for the coffee and signature creative drinks, but stay for the food that tastes like someone's sister figured out how to do this right.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.
