Crema's Take

This cozy Superior staple has cultivated a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back for years—regulars rave about the thoughtful photography adorning the walls, the comfortable layout perfect for settling in with a laptop or meeting friends, and staff who actually remember your face and orders. Beyond the reliable espresso and crowd-pleasing classics like their blackberry mocha, Empire Coffee nails that rare balance of being simultaneously quiet enough for focused work and warm enough to feel like a community gathering spot, with solid pastries and light food rounding out the experience.

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I loved the pleasant experience going to this coffee shop. My fiance made a film here in college 5 years ago. The photography on the walls was pretty. Staff was kind and remembered her.
