Crema's Take

This vibrant Clairemont spot buzzes with genuine energy and a consistently engaged crew who genuinely care about getting your order right, whether you're ordering their inventive specialty drinks or a creative matcha creation like their lauded matcha-lavender-honey blend. The intimate space, adorned with striking local art, makes it a cozy gathering spot despite tight parking and limited seating, and their coffee is thoughtfully sourced with interesting flavor profiles that regulars keep coming back for.

A very energetic and lively atmosphere and staff. I’ve never seen it slow here. Great coffee flavor and choices. My niece and her boyfriend were with us on this visit and said the food was good and to their liking but the Matcha is a tad too sweet (powdered mis taste) but the other coffees we had were quite good. Fun comfort foods and snacks here too. I use a lot of the local coffee shops for my real estate meetings and networking, I tend to not come here for that because it's always packed, seating is tough to get and there's no outdoor seating options.

Been there several times, each time hoping for a better experience. The staff is good, most of the time. Been there a couple times where they are just behind the counter, talking and goofing off instead of making my drink. I usually order flavored lattes. They NEVER tastes like what I ordered. Usually taste like a plain latte. The atmosphere is OK, it's clean and comfortable.

The coffee is very good, and they have a lot of interesting flavors. The art on the walls is also amazing, and helps create a cozy atmosphere. Not many tables and very limited parking so might be best to stop during less busy times. I was a little disappointed that the customer service when we were there was pretty unwelcoming but it might have just been an early morning fluke.

This is a really cute little spot in Clairemont, though parking can be tricky if the lot is full. There was a short line to order, which makes sense for the weekend. The staff was warm and friendly, and I appreciated that they offer “for here” cups. Their bagel selection looked amazing, and it’s definitely a nice place to study or work. The only downside was how noisy it was—not from the customers, but from the baristas preparing drinks. Hopefully that’s something they can improve on.

Excellent cutomer service. The lady that helped us was very welcoming and helpful. Tasty and delicious drinks. She was also spot on the request I made to mix matcha with lavender and honey. Would definitely come back here for more! Also lovely, cozy and a fun atmosphere and set up.
