Crema's Take

Tucked into the heart of University Circle, this independent spot has earned genuine affection for its genuinely excellent biscuits and carefully crafted coffee that fills the space with an inviting aroma the moment you walk in. The team here matches the quality of their food—you'll notice the warmth and attentiveness from staff who seem to actually enjoy greeting customers, making it feel like a place where people linger rather than just grab and go. Whether you're fueling up between museum visits or settling in for a leisurely breakfast, the combination of solid sandwiches, pastries, and cozy indoor and outdoor seating creates a neighborhood gathering spot that clearly resonates with regulars and visitors alike.

From the wonderful coffee aroma to the warm greetings and smiling faces from the employees the minute you walk through the door--- this coffee shop really shines! It's a great spot for a quick lunch, coffee to go, or a meet with friends. Plenty of seating, great atmosphere, and exceptionally clean. Their turkey sandwich was thick cut on a soft fluffy bun. Tried the broccoli cheddar soup, also excellent. They even made us a tasty breakfast sandwich close to closing time. With so many treat options in the pastry case you'll want to try them all. I can recommend the tart (shown cut in half to display the crisp buttery crust and rich and creamy filling) and the chocolate chip cookie to start. This should be everyone's go to when in the area!

I came here after going to a few museums and it’s in a super convenient spot for that. Coffee was great and they baristas were very nice. The atmosphere was kinda of mid I think it was the lighting and the music but it was just weird for some reason. Food and coffee was good though.
