Stopped by for a latte to go. Staff was friendly. I like the way the wood beams were organized on the ceiling. Plenty of seating.Ordered one of their signature lattes, the honey vanilla latte. The latte exceeded my expectations. Not too sweet. Perfect afternoon drink on a chilly autumn afternoon. Only con is the parking in this area. I was able to grab a spot across the street, but traffic is congested in this area and difficult if you need to circle around.

Coffee is excellent. Feel like they could use a second employee for a few hours in the morning since they have food (the kickstart sandwich, paninis etc) which can slow things down (but is also one of the reasons I come here). Nice ambiance. Little awkward having everyone have to wait by front door entrance due to layout but can't change that.

Breve latte was really good. And I also got the morning bun that has a tiny bit of cardamom, which was tasty. It had that large crystal sugar that was "orange" flavor on the bottom and was a bit too much for me, but that's if I'm being really picky.

If you get a chance try this cute little coffee shop on Couch! The Matcha latte with oat milk was perfection and they have a range of delicious pastry options! Alice is a fabulous, friendly and talented Barista and person! The price is right and you can't beat the location if you're on the lower Eastside! I highly recommend them.

I like this place but the breakfast sandwich (ham and cheese in croissant ) was dry and chewy.. too bad as otherwise the taste was good. They also charge for refills on house coffee that is already pretty spendy.. The staff is friendly and the place is bustling with business. Good location .

We stopped here while in Portland last weekend. We stayed at KEX hotel and it was kitty corner from us. I am gluten intolerant so of course, seeing that they had a gluten free banana muffin drew me in! We enjoyed our coffee during our drive up to Seattle. The muffin was moist and tasty! Definitely will come back.

The cappuccino was delicious. The gluten free banana nut muffin was very tasty. The downside was only one staff member and there was a wait. However, it was Thanksgiving Day so just grateful to get some tasty coffee!

This place is a calm place to either sit inside or out, while enjoying a refreshing chai tea with vibrant notes of spices and a delicate taste of black tea and honey. The sandwich is perfect for a quick bite but if you have a sweet tooth, they have a variety of pastries. The Barista was very kind and attentive. Would recommend here to study or simply catch up with friends

Coffee and pastries are great! Ambiance is dismal and has become a hoarders den and they should apply to be on the hit TV show hoarders. If you like coffee in pouring rain then go to Crème because indoor seating is not an option. We need more open doors in Portland not closed ones.

I went to Crema and got a kickstart breakfast sandwich and the 4 shots with condensed milk. It was pretty sweet and the quad shot was similar to a Vietnamese coffee. I liked the aesthetic it was pretty busy. The sandwich had brown sugar bacon and was pretty good. Next time I go back I'll just get a plain Iced coffee. I just liked that they had some pretty unique options and it was fun to try something different.
