Crema's Take

Café Santo brings authentic Oaxacan flavors to San Gabriel with drinks that actually stand out, like their celebrated mocha with deep chocolate notes that isn't cloyingly sweet and creative seasonal lattes such as Arroz Tatemado that show real care in the recipe development. The kitchen matches the coffee quality with vibrant breakfast dishes like perfectly spiced chilaquiles and French toast, all crafted with fresh ingredients and a friendliness that makes you want to return again and again.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, matcha and tea options too. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.
