Great coffee and hot chocolates, but was a bit disappointed with the take-away breakfast sandwiches. They were okay, but was expecting more based on the positive reviews I had read.

The seasonal iced drink was flavorless. Ended up putting half and half with lots of simple syrup to get it down. Tossed most of it, though. The americano was mid, drip coffee. I don't know because they were out.
Staff looked a bit disorganized, and the prep area was messy. I'm not sure if they were new or something. They were friendly and doing their best despite the many customers they were serving.
No seating whatsoever. Can't really fault them on this because their store size is out of their control. Would be great if the bagel place next door was more welcoming you could maybe have your drink in their large dining room. Sadly, it is closed for dine in.
Won't be back to Crema because there are too many issues and not enough positives. If you're in the area, I recommend another place to get coffee.

Came in 5 minutes before close (didn't realize!) And she graciously still took my order. I tried the pumpkin/crema mixed Gelato and it was so good and super cute that I had to leave a review! My iced vanilla latte with oat milk was also very good! I will be back soon!

Crema is my Go-to neighborhood coffee shop and I can’t say enough about how much I love it. It’s owned by people local to the neighborhood, and you can tell they take a lot of pride in their business by how they strive to provide a nice atmosphere, delicious coffee, and friendly service. The coffee is smooth and strong, the seasonal drinks are creative and not overly sweet, and the dairy free rotating soft serve just gets better every time. They are also super friendly to kiddos and doggos, with treats available at the counter. My dog tries to go in every time we walk by! I love having this little spot to go to for my weekend treat, and I always take friends and family when they visit!
Just an FYI for new customers that they don’t carry cash and are a grab-and-go shop. There’s a rail to stand at and some outdoor chairs, but it’s not the sort of coffee shop where you go and hang out for an hour or two

Earlier I had the chance to try Crema for the first time & brought it back to my office! What a wonderful spot near Lake Nokomis for amazing coffee, cold brew, or matcha... And their breakfast sandwiches are equally amazing!! Their seasonal drinks are SO GOOD! Super nice staff who were very helpful too. Plenty of parking space along the side of behind the building. Can't wait to make a trip back here again, especially because they have soft serve gelato & affogato that I NEED to try as well!!!

Dropped my coffee as soon as I walked out of the shop and the owner was so kind to replace it. Great coffee and hospitality in the Nokomis neighborhood.

The bagel was great. Wish we could give half stars because 4 feels a bit low, but nothing stood out enough to give 5.

It's directly across from McDonalds liquor. Pricey but really nice workers and atmosphere. Thanks guys
