Crema's Take
“The Balkan coffee here is a revelation if you want something bolder than your standard espresso drink—it's prepared with the intensity and ritual of traditional Turkish coffee, and regulars swear by it. The two owners clearly care deeply about every detail, from sourcing quality beans through Stumptown to keeping the playlist consistently excellent, which creates the kind of neighborhood warmth you actually can't find at bigger chains. Pair that with their Protein Bomb pastry (get there early) and fresh sandwiches, and you've got a legitimate reason to make this a regular stop.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Amazing new coffee shop in soho! Barista Svada was super kind. Ordered their drip and Balkan coffee (similar to Turkish coffee). They source really good coffee from Stumptown. Also have a great selection of pastries. A really cool addition to the area
