    This is my favorite coffee shop in Denver. The atmosphere is beyond welcoming, with their slogan being “Crema Loves You”. Their dirty chai has just enough spice and their coffee bean options can satisfy every customer’s tastes. The food menu has enough variety to hit both sweet and savory profiles (my favorite right now is the beet salad because it’s so juicy and refreshing). The layout includes ample indoor seating by the main entrance and just past the ordering counter, as well as a huge back patio which is mostly shaded and fenced in. They also have a cute bodega location down the street!

    Very cool vibe At this coffee shop. We enjoyed very much the food and coffee drinks. A plus is definitely the seating area to work and the good wifi. It can be a little bit noisy if you try to catch a meeting but otherwise is perfect to get some work done. Update: please notice that the coffee shop has no outlets.

    Ok, ok. Bottom line first. Best all-around coffee house I've visited in the area including Boulder. Friendly people, good coffee, great food (e.g., Moroccan meatball sandwich), and ambiance. Just the right balance between background sound and music for those of us who like a bit of distraction while pondering life issues. A++. No lie. only regret... I do not live nearby for daily visits.

    the coffee was great, but the star was definitely the veggie quiche. my boyfriend and i came here to get some work done and this was the perfect atmosphere for that. the staff were friendly and attentive, there is seating both in the front and back of the shop, and they offer multiple snackaroonies.

    Huge shoutout to the employees that worked the day I went in. So friendly and made me such a delicious drink. I’ll be going back soon to try the food. Not only was everything good, but they also got through the line very quickly, while still taking the time to memorize my name. One of the best coffee places I’ve been to in Denver Instagram: Audrey.Pulliam (for more denver content or review requests)

    ✅best coffee in denver ✅best chocolate chip cookie in denver ✅best quiche in denver ✅top 10 breakfast burritos in denver ✅top 10 sandwiches in denver It’s clear they care about food quality to the utmost here. Crema is the rare case where the price is more than justified for everything on the menu. Amazing spot if you care a lot about how your food/coffee tastes. Just one example of this is that the cinnamon roll frosting comes absolutely loaded with real vanilla beans they scrape in-house.

    Love them. A vibrant coffee shop in the heart of Five Points, crema has a host of pastries and breakfast foods to enjoy along with a nice coffee. I had their breakfast burrito and was delighted that their salsa was fresh and just spicy enough. It’s a short walk from The Ramble if you’re staying there, but it’s worth traversing the cold.

    I absolutely loved the first time I set foot in Crema Coffee House, at 2863 Larimer Street. The ambience was magical, with unique and fun murals painted on the brick walls. My mocha was tasty, and the latte art was stunning. And, someone who enjoys watching people come in and out, this place had a variety of traffic. I went back, today. The inside is still closed to customers, due to the pandemic. But, they were open for business for curbside service. And there is news of them potentially opening back up for indoor service, in the not-too-distant future. Can’t wait! Some of the indoor shots I’m including, here, are from my visit back in 2019. EDITED: I’ve gone since September 2021. It’s great to be back at one of my favorite coffee shops in Denver. The birds mural is new to me, since I hadn’t been inside for over a year.

    Great local coffee spot in the popular business section of the neighborhood, RiNo. It is usually busy, but the lines are short and move quickly, and finding seating is possible if you wait a couple minutes. This is mostly because many people can’t work from their laptops here since wall outlets are unavailable. There is also a back patio better during warm seasons. I recommend their quiche if you’re looking for a small meal. It comes with a salad. Restaurants, breweries, local shops, and other businesses are within walking distance.

    This was our first stop from the airport and was a great start to our vacation. The food, coffee, and service was all excellent. We had the veggie quiche, meat breakfast burrito, beet salad, chocolate chip scone with espresso glaze, chai, oat latte, and drip coffee. The service was incredibly fast and the food was fresh and very good. We were all happy. Note: the chai is spicy! Highly recommend this great spot.

    Absolutely crushed it. Perfect coffee, great atmosphere, warm and lovely staff... really, REALLY good food - just so fresh and delicious. Their murals are incredible too. ☕️🥐🏔👌👌🔥

  • 2/5 michael p. 3 years ago on Google
    Breakfast burrito is fantastic. Good coffee. I edited this to two stars because you cannot simply stand in the street and order a coffee at the door that is literally covered by plexiglass without a mask. I understand and feel for these businesses that times are uncertain and they literally have no idea what is or is not allowed from day to day, but a little common sense from staff is also not too much to ask, and in the absence of any reasonable explanation for what they think is going to happen to them with me standing outside and six feet from an employee who is cowering behind a plexiglass wall, there has to be some level of accountability, however small, and this is all that is within my power. Won't be back, but wish you the best in navigating these absurd and unscientific times, I'm sure you're doing your best.

  • 4/5 Caroline N. 3 years ago on Google
    Such a lovely lil place! Busy and a little more than what I’d usually pay but fun and very well decorated on the inside. Definitely a cafe for Denver’s art lovers!

  • 5/5 Scott Etan F. 3 years ago on Google
    Ultra-cool setting for well-prepared coffee and solid food options.

  • 5/5 Gina A. 3 years ago on Google
    Good Everything and Good Vibes . It's a good coffee shop surprise if you're looking for a new coffee shops . i love it .

  • 5/5 Matthew R. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing place with the best breakfast burritos around. Also try the quiche or the weekend breakfast sandwich.

  • 4/5 December B. 3 years ago on Google
    This place was cool.. appeared trendy. right now its all order at the window and go. The staff were nice and easy to order from. Especially since I was a first timer. The coffee was wonderful. I also ordered the quiche. It was yum! 😋 but so very tiny and kinda expensive for a tiny slice of pie. I didnt feel super safe on that street corner. It was trashed and throw up on the ground. 🤢 There must be some bars nearby. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'd probably go back tho. Good food and coffee are most important 👌

    I will be back with my coworkers. The place has a nice atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Taylor 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious coffee & gluten free peach thumb print cookie! Great vibes and plenty of seating inside and out. My favorite coffee shop in Denver hands down!

  • 5/5 Roxane D. 1 year ago on Google
    I come for the breakfast menu! The coffee has been pretty good but the breakfast sandwiches and quiches change often and have all been creative and really good. Plus, the atmosphere is bustling but not too much, so a good place for light work or bringing guests. The picture is the breakfast sandwich with lemon aioli and maple lox and it was fantastic.

  • 5/5 Joanne D. 1 year ago on Google
    The coffee is tasty, the customer service is great and the quiche is off the charts. Flaky, buttery crust, perfectly softly cooked eggs inside. Just the right amount of ingredients. Shoutout to the executive chef cooking up these recipes. I’ve also gotten them to go, and most recently we impressed our European colleagues at work by bringing them this tasty quiche! Shoutout to your awesome weekend cashier who is great at patiently checking out the constant stream of coffee junkies like myself.

  • 5/5 Evan 11 months ago on Google
    This place was neat. The cortado I got was maybe the smoothest I’ve ever had. I also got a meat breakfast burrito which was pretty good, and it seems like they have a good breakfast/ lunch menu. Definitely a place to stop by with friends or a colleague to chat or get some work done.

  • 5/5 Mel 6 months ago on Google
    The breakfast is worth a visit. The meat quiche is amazing. I would show you a photo but it was so good I could not stop to take a photo. Empty plate is all you get. Quiche comes with a salad with an incredible dressing. The lattes are fine. Servers are nice. It was our first visit and we ordered lattes expecting to get hot lattes. We got one hot and one cold. No idea why but they were both good.

    Crema Coffee House is a nice spot for a good cup of coffee and a satisfying light meal. I visited Crema a couple of times, had a cortado and a cappuccino and both coffee were on point. Crema Coffee carries a variety of local roasters as well as some out-of-state guest roasters. One standout feature of Crema is its food menu, with great options for both breakfast and lunch, and some rotating specials. I had their quiche during one visit and thought it was tasty and satisfying. The little house salad on the side was a great touch. The interior of Crema can feel a bit dimly lit, but the entry room has plenty of natural light, and there's a spacious patio in the back where I sat both times to enjoy the fresh air and good weather.

  • 5/5 WL W. 8 months ago on Google
    Delicious coffee and pastries, friendly staff, artsy decor, plenty of seating indoor and outdoor at the back patio. Their cappuccino is a must try, so good.

  • 5/5 Bri 7 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Kelly H. 4 months ago on Google
    Husband and I have been visiting small batch coffee houses around Denver and wherever we travel, since coming home from spending the summer in Europe last year. We visited Crema a couple days ago. It was busy and there were no seats inside and the plethora of outdoor seating was all wet so we sat in the car and enjoyed our joes while hubby returned a few work emails. The shop was so vibrant. The energy was great. The service was great. So friendly. We always enjoy having a laugh with people we meet. We always get vanilla lattes so that we can compare fairly. These were delicious. They could have been a skosh warmer but the flavor was top notch. Not too strong of coffee, just the right balance. And they were ready so quickly! I think the shop was accessible. I did not visit the restrooms. I also ordered an almond croissant that was delicious and big enough for two days of breakfast. We will surely be back someday. We both highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Jirah L. 5 months ago on Google
    Really yummy food! I got the pork belly banh mi, and it was delicious! Great atmosphere and everyone is super sweet.

  • 5/5 Luke K. 3 years ago on Google
    Great spot! Delicious espresso, great breakfast burritos and nice people.

  • 4/5 Laura M. 3 years ago on Google
    Almond Lattes are fantastic...almond croissant was flaky and fresh even after 9am..I miss being able to sit down and take it all in. An outdoor gallery would be fun, but I appreciate their diligence to keep customers safe by doing to go orders only.

  • 5/5 henry f. 3 years ago on Google
    staff is always nice even when they have a full house. there was fast, efficient, and courteous service. the place has a cool feel to it.

  • 5/5 Laura B. 3 years ago on Google
    Their dirty chai is filthier than your ex (5 stars, would recommend)

  • 5/5 C K. 3 years ago on Google
    everyone at our table was glad to be there. the staff was very friendly and attentive. prices are fair. i can see why they have so many good reviews.

  • 1/5 George K. 3 years ago on Google
    This was probably the worst coffee I ever had. The coffee was watered down and did not come with any sweetener or cream.They require customers to wear masks (even for outdoor to-go orders) but when the cashiers friends came they weren’t wearing masks. Also saw the lady in the back (who prepares food) take off her mask and continue working

  • 4/5 Kalin B. 3 years ago on Google
    this place can get very busy and it feels a little disorganized when it does. But otherwise the coffee is really really good. And come here more if it felt less crowded and there was more parking.

  • 5/5 Easton H. 3 years ago on Google
    I will probably become a regular. The place has an awesome atmosphere. Food and atmosphere reminds me of Kansas City.

  • 5/5 carla h. 3 years ago on Google
    Went there on a Saturday. It has a good atmosphere. Feels like a cafe in Phoenix that I enjoyed visiting.

  • 5/5 Arthur C. 3 years ago on Google
    Everyone at our table was quite pleased. I had a brother come into town and asked me to take him back here. The prices are fair for the quality of food. They have so many reviews for a reason.

  • 5/5 Eric K. 3 years ago on Google
    Great ☕ and great vibes

  • 5/5 Cris S. 3 years ago on Google
    A cafe with a rather unique atmosphere and good coffee. A great place to meet friends in a cozy atmosphere. In general, I liked everything during my stay here. Probably will come back with a couple of friends.

  • 5/5 piper b. 3 years ago on Google
    The staff was very friendly and attentive. The bill was reasonable. Food is like a restaurant in Jacksonville I loved.

  • 5/5 Sabrina K. 3 years ago on Google
    The staff is very friendly. I wasn't sure what to get and they gave me great menu suggestions. I got some iced espresso. The coffee quality is amazing, and their homemade syrups were flavorful.

    Best coffee in Denver, best cookies too

  • 5/5 Rachel N. 3 years ago on Google
    Awesome food - especially the quiche. Mostly, I'll always love this place because it's where I met the love of my life. Thanks for creating a space conducive to talking to strangers over coffee.

  • 5/5 Paisley A. 3 years ago on Google
    It was a nice experience for me for the first time. Mike was a humble guy that knows what he's doing and gets the job done well. Try their services and you won’t regret it for sure. The quality of service they provided was amazing! I couldn't ask for more! I will never forget to tell all of my friends and co-workers about this place for sure.

    hard to tell where to order and pick up no customer service to help

  • 1/5 selina b. 3 years ago on Google
    The food and coffee was extremely bland. Coffee was watered down and cookie was stale. The guy at the register was rude. They require all customers to wear masks but the workers that prepare in the back do not fully wear their masks.

  • 5/5 Lyndzie D. 3 years ago on Google
