Best coffee shop in Nashville. Amazing staff, great atmosphere and phenomenal speciality drinks. On a hot day try the coffee soda, you won't regret it!
Design*SpongeAugust 3, 2014My favorite coffee spot on the outskirts of the downtown strip, brewing their own delicious locally-roasted beans (the new coffee soda will knock your socks off). Grab a seat on the cozy front porch. Read more
Sarah DarlingJune 7, 2017This is the best cup of coffee in Nashville in my opinion and right in the middle of downtown! It's located on 1st Avenue and easy to walk to. Try the Cuban with a French Macaron on the side.
Vonetta AustinMarch 31, 2019Stopped in for a quick bite and some people watching while out sight seeing. At the recommendation of others I had the Cuban. It was delicious and even came complete with cool latte art.
- Welcome to @CremaCrema, the best coffee shop in Nashville. What should you drink: the iced or hot Cuban. What's the wifi password: 6152558311. What beans should you buy: the Ethiopia blend. Enjoy!
Savannah ReedJanuary 5, 2015By far my favorite coffee shop in Nashville. The coffee is roasted there. The drip El Salvador was amazing. Such a fun atmosphere. Good blueberry muffins.
Tim LuoSeptember 5, 2015Mmmmm. Best coffee I had in my short stay. Great espresso drinks and drip coffees (a very wide selection of them too!). The decor was very very nice, and the baristas were very friendly- Margaret LopezJuly 26, 2013The Cuban is my favorite drink! Crema is by far my favorite coffee shop in Nashville. The staff is awesome and the patio is perfect on a beautiful day. Also, try the coffee soda! So good!
Ricardo ValdesApril 20, 2016Great espresso blend. Solid. Great with or without milk. Their other choices for pour overs and cold brews are great too. Nice to see a zero waste bin. Very chatty staff
CITY GRITAugust 1, 2014This cozy coffee stop serves only ethically sourced beans which they roast in house. Honestly speaking, they had us at Bourbon Barrel Sorghum Latte. You can catch them at Pinewood Social.
Duncan HowsleyAugust 19, 2014Delicious coffees and muffins. If you like a flat white and fancy something a little sweet, the Cuban is just wonderful (espresso, foamed milk, sweetened condensed milk).
Aslı ŞahinMarch 15, 2016Liked the coffee and the ambiance, however it's far from the centre if you didnt rent a car. There will be a next time to try avocado spread.
The Cuban is not to be missed. If your a traditionalist, treat yourself to an espresso. They do it right. This is one of the best coffee shops, period.
KateMay 23, 2015Delicious light to medium roasted coffee. The outdoor seating is wonderful on a sunny day. Highly recommended!
Comes pretty close to the coffee shops of Seattle. People, atmosphere, and coffee knowledge. If only now they could stay open longer / all night like Seattle. I presume the demand just isn't the same.
Rodney BrockSeptember 12, 2012Probably my favorite coffee shop I've ever been to. And that's including cities like Boston, Philly, DC and small towns across New England. Bravo to a team of true coffee professionals.
Kris JordanSeptember 21, 2013If you love coffee, this is your spot in Nashville. Sit at the espresso bar and get the barrista's recommendations. Great espresso and pour overs.
Jady KleinJune 17, 2015Can't go wrong with a coffee soda or a Cuban. Their blueberry muffins and avocado toast are heavenly.
Dea CJuly 13, 2014The breakfast quinoa is to die for! I like it warm, with a drizzle of half and half.
Jake SOctober 20, 2017Nice combination of well-executed traditional drinks and weird experiments. Tea is good too.
The Cuban is a can't miss. Also try out their quiches. Three cheese is more traditional - try the goat cheese and Swiss chard for an adventure.
Chelsea BalkanDecember 27, 2014#FabuLIST #DubiDO best coffee in town. Loved their lattes but you can't go wrong with anything here
Connie ChiuApril 2, 2019Zenzero is amazing: ginger + maple reduction latte. I asked for half sweet with the maple since I don’t like my coffee too sweet.
Charles AdlerFebruary 11, 2020Cortado is beautifully made, muesli is sweet but not overly sweet. Everything is made with care and concern.
Lesley EspinosaMarch 2, 2015Good service and great coffee! But there Hot Chocolate is really really good!!!!
Nate BakerJune 29, 2012Bathroom Tips: 1. The light is tied to a motion detector. If the lights die on you mid-business, DO NOT FRET. Shake a crazy leg and continue. 2. There's a secret second bathroom in the corner.
Ryan AndersonSeptember 7, 2014The breakfast quinoa hits the spot! Get it warmed up with a Cuban on the side
ElizabethSeptember 17, 2021Great people, amazing coffee and perfect ambiance for a morning cup of Joe
Sobe SimonDecember 20, 2014Amazing coffees, pastries and atmosphere like in any third wave European cafés
Jonathan CreamerApril 17, 2015Very cool coffee shop. Delicious coffee and chill environment. Love it.
Katherine MezApril 29, 2013best coffee in town by far. try their pour overs or a Cuban if you have a sweet tooth.
Mich BeuvinkOctober 10, 2014Cheap coffees! Great chocolates as well. Hip place, and not too far from downtown.
Hannah O.January 27, 2016I usually feel like an idiot paying for avocado toast, but THIS! No regrets.
Eco-Snobbery SucksAugust 4, 2011Locally owned, locally roasted organic and estate coffees, and all around the.best.java.in.Nashville...period. Try the cuban or Crema carbomb. -Jeffrey Davis
The Cuban is excellent! It's just a latte, perfectly sweetened with condensed milk.
Coffee lover? Take the baristas recommendation, and get it made in a chemex pot :)
Brew LatelyApril 10, 2019The Brooklyn coffee shop of Nashville? Solid cold brew could be a little stronger- It's the summer which means you have to try the coffee soda. Behind the iced Cuban it's the best drink here.
Espresso is perfect, with just a hint of citrus flavor. Great in their macchiato.
First visit to Crema was unsuccessful. Place was packed to the brim and wasn't able to get a table to sit and work. Going to try again soon.
Coffee sodas sound weird but will blow your mind. Think coffee cocktail. Get one if they're on the menu.
Adrian PatenaudeJune 23, 2015Great place to work, but bring earbuds if you're easily overstimulated and need to focus.
Stefanie SpatolaMay 8, 2014Yummy quiche, coffee was just ok. Plenty of seating and a short walk from downtown to escape the tourists.
