Crema's Take

Tucked into Carmel-by-the-Sea's charming interior walkways, this cozy café strikes a lovely balance between specialty coffee craftsmanship and approachable comfort food, with reviewers raving about the quality of both their lattes and their thoughtfully composed sandwiches. The laid-back, intimate atmosphere makes it an ideal spot to linger with friends or settle in with a book, and the friendly staff seems genuinely attentive without feeling rushed. Whether you're after a precisely crafted coffee drink or a fresh-squeezed juice paired with a well-made sandwich, you'll find something delicious that doesn't feel pretentious or overwrought.

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.
