Super cute ambiance, sweet staff with good service, and I love supporting local coffee shops but I cannot justify $19.00 for a small drink and a sandwich. I have never paid so much for so little. There were no prices on the food and that should have been my first indicator. I should have asked before I ordered. Now onto the actual taste- The chai was okay.... But not something I will be finishing bc there's so much spice in it. The sandwich was also fine, it did the job but not something I'd ever order again. Im sad to say this will not be a spot I come back to.... read more

Cafe Bostwick - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

I started coming here before the change in ownership and also enjoyed it then, but the new owner has brought her own personality and charm to the business. I like that she has displayed historical images of the building and the neighborhood. I no longer live in the area but stop by when I'm around. The location itself is hard to beat, being situated in the triangular end of one of the theater district's most iconic historic buildings (the Bostwick). The drinks are consistently good and fairly priced for the area. There's ample room to sit and enjoy the views of the theaters. A great place to stop by if you're doing some shopping on Antique Row or about to catch a performance. The Broadway Farmers' Market is also just a few steps away, so all in all it's in a very convenient part of one of Tacoma's handful of truly pedestrian friendly neighborhoods. read more

Super cute and friendly people. The cinnamon roll went perfectly with our cappuccinos

What a gorgeous coffee shop! This past weekend, we serendipitously walked into Cremello Cafe and instantly knew we made the right decision. The staff was kind, knowledgeable, and thoughtful from start to finish. We were ordering a variety of pastries to bring back to our family, and let's just say, their recommendations were spot on. The brioche and almond pinwheel were absolute fan favorites, and some even said, I quote, "This was the best brioche I've ever had!" Personally, I was a big fan of the cinnamon roll, which was soft, sweet, and just an overall delight on our Labor Day Weekend. Nestled in an interesting spot - think triangular building - the coffee shop sits on the bottom floor of a historic building built in 1887. The place definitely has charm for sure! Overall, we walked away as big fans of Cremello Cafe. Honestly, we wish they had a location near our actual hometowns, as we're already craving another bite! read more

Cremello Cafe is a delightful place for a beverage and a tasty treat! I had questions that were answered with care and enjoyed a delicious "hot buttered latte" and sampled two toasty breakfast items that absolutely hit the spot! There were so many items that looked AMAZING, it was really hard to choose, but I'd say you really can't go wrong (so far they've been 10 out of 10)! The "cinnamon roll" (more like the Viking Cup from Sluy's bakery in Poulsbo) and the ham and cheese biscuit were to *die* for and were heated perfectly so the cinnamon roll dough was light and flaky and the cream cheese frosting was warm and gooey, while the ham and cheese biscuit was soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside with melty cheese on the ham. (I detest rosemary, which I didn't realize was in the biscuit, but it didn't bother me at all, as it was so full of other delicious herby-cheese flavors!) Sadly, there was a glass pane broken on one side of the triangle seat, so I only had views out the front and opposite side, with a bit of a draft through the pressboard currently covering the hole, but it was still a nice spot to watch the world go by. Other seating throughout the shop also looked nice, and I could see cozying up here for a while and working my way through the pastry case and selection of other coffee and non-coffee drinks to while away the time. Dine-in coffee was served in a heavy mug with a nicely curved shape (16oz max), and the pastries were served on ceramic plates with "fancy" silverware, including a small but sharp butter knife, so as to not be overwhelming on the plate or causing it to awkwardly slide off or be in my way. Thoroughly enjoyed my first trip here and will be sure it's not my last! (Sadly no photos of my coffee or edibles, as I gobbled them down before I thought to snap a picture, but enjoy a photo of the pastry case!) Update: I decided to take a drink to go and decided to try their caramel apple cider (not exactly called that, but close, and sounded even better). Unfortunately it tasted mostly of water. I think it's fair to say something may have gone wrong in the serving of it, as it had previously not been available (he removed the sticker crossing it off the menu once I asked about it), but I would not order it again if this is how it's meant to be. read more

Cremello Cafe is a new coffee shop that opened up in the antique district of Tacoma. I have been to this space before when previous coffee shops were here and have always loved it! It's no exception with the current tenant and perhaps I like it even more as it's a small business and not a franchise that used to be here. Pastries and sandwiches are good here and is pretty fresh. Love the coffee and tea drinks here especially. I got the London Fog and really enjoyed it! Love that Earl Grey oriented drink! Definitely a place worth returning back to! read more

Cute little cafe located right on the tip of a corner in Tacoma. We had lattes as well as a cinnamon roll and ham and egg croissant. The cinnamon roll was arguably one of the best I have ever had and highly recommend trying it if it is not sold out! Service was very friendly and well accommodating Definitely recommend checking this place out if you are in the neighborhood as it's a really neat spot and great drinks and food read more

Very classy and beautiful. Lots of windows for natural sunlight and views to the outside. The staff are amazing and so polite. Ordered a London fog, white mocha and peanut butter and jelly frappe and they brought it right to us and they tasted amazing! Highly recommended. read more

Stopped by here taking a walk. I love the corner window space and music. The coffee was good, stronger than most we have had around here! My boyfriend ordered the marionberry scone. I didn't really like it but he did, lol. We'd come here again off in the area. Nice atmosphere ash's the customer service was very friendly and they delivered our order to us which was a nice plus! read more

We were looking for some coffee shop, and my husband saw this place. He was like let's go here. Why not trying a new fun place than going to Starbucks! We got attracted by outside of the building and the vibe immediately. We was greeted with a great smile and they were having a soft opening. One of the owner I think? Karen. She was very sweet to us and we felt very welcomed to this place. I got a rose coffee and he got americano. We shared a ham and cheese croissant. Karen learned our name and remembered it, made us felt special. Anyways, I know there are not many places that have rose syrup. Lucky for me they do! I was so happy about that since my all time fav coffeeshop took their rose syrup away:( I found this new favorite spot, and if I'm nearby Tacoma I will definitely come by again and again. I have to try lavender coffee next time for sure! My husband got americano, and he rarely compliments coffee and he only care for the caffeine usually, but he complimented the coffee and it was hot and good. The croissant was toasted, it's warm the cheese melted perfectly inside and crispy on the outside. So yes I would say this will be my favorite spot. read more

This location has been many coffee shops over the years, some good some bad. It's nice to see that a new eager crew has come in to serve great coffee in an unique space. The day I was there someone was even playing the piano which was lovely. Service was spot on, coffee was great and they have a wonderful selection of baked goods to go along with your drink. Sit back and enjoy the view from the large windows in this historic building! read more

I used to absolutely love this cafe, when it was Cremello. It was so nice inside, the coffee was great, and the previous owners were wonderful. There's a new owner/employees and it's not the same anymore, I miss going here and hopefully it gets better, but for me the service and coffee were so bad I decided I probably won't return. read more

This coffee shop feels like a hidden gem. Went for a friend date at a cute coffee shop and this place did not disappoint! The staff were so friendly and the coffee was delicious! The place is on a street corner that splits the hill, with nice big windows to watch the city wake up. There is a cute table in the corner surrounded by windows and it gives main character energy. Also it's on ANTIQUE ROW! Which I didn't realize was a thing. After we finished with our coffee we realized there were a bunch of vintage shops on this street. It was so fun walking around at all the cute and intriguing finds! We had so much fun we went back for a second coffee! First I had a classic latte with almond milk. The only thing I will say is that the menu is not posted on the wall. It's on a paper menu by the register. So I just ordered something quick because there was a line forming. But they actually do have all the syrups and flavorings you could think of. The second round I got an iced dirty spiced chai. It tasted just like fall! We got the second round to-go to keep browsing in the shops. Also the parking on this street is 2hrs max. Needless to say I went back and kept paying for more time because we couldn't leave! We were having too much fun. Highly recommend getting some coffee here and checking out the rest of the street because it truly is magical. read more

Sandwiches are very nice and unique. Teas were great. Pastries looked amazing. Service was spot on. Ambiance was quite nice. Free parking a few steps away. read more

This is my new favorite coffee shop in Tacoma. Ordered a caramel latte, sandwich and pastry. Everything was delicious. The latte was the best I've had. The focaccia bread on the sandwich was savory and chewy in the best way. The almond pastry was just the right amount of sweet, fluffy and soft. On top of all this, I haven't had such fantastic service in a long time. Everything was thought of. He even put a dusting of freeze dried dog treats in my pup cup which my dog went wild for. I wish they were in my neighborhood but they are definitely worth the trip! read more

I drive by this place all the time and love how the seating extends to the very corner of the building. It looks beautiful inside, full of natural light, and I was surprised at how much more seating is available than I initially realized. Street parking only, but there were plenty of spaces when I visited on a Wednesday afternoon. I had the caprese sandwich (delicious) and raspberry cornette (I think that was the name? Basically a delicious croissant) and both exceeded my expectations. It's easy for them to get dry and tough but both items were perfect. The menu is pretty large and my friend and I had to share when flipping through - one whole page was dedicated to syrup flavors. Seems like you can get any drink you want haha although I stuck with a regular latte and was very happy with it. Overall, I loved it and would definitely recommend! read more

Holy wow just had the best croissant of my life at Cremello Cafe! Flaky, buttery, soft, and the most delicious raspberry center. Thankfully I don't live in Tacoma because I'd be tempted to get one every day. Hubby got the bacon & cheese biscuit sandwich which was amazing, and the flat whites were great as well. A bit on the pricey side but felt well worth it for the quality of the experience. Service was very warm and friendly, the ladies behind the counter were super sweet. Inside the cafe is spacious, quiet, cozy, and cute! Looked like a nice place to sip tea and read a book. read more

The service was exceptional, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The coffee, especially the matcha latte, exceeded my expectations, and the pastries were simply to die for! A perfect blend of great service and delicious treats. Highly recommended :) read more

I really adore Cremello! parisian vibe, the green decor is so lovely, they have cornetto/croissants, their tiramisu is seriously so good and their matcha latte taste authentic to me and I am very picky with my matcha! they serve your drinks in a cup and that's really rare nowadays to find coffee shops like that especially after covid so I really appreciate that. The owners and the staff are very friendly and genuinely want to have a conversation with you. I hope they will stay for a long time in downtown read more

Ordered one of the sandwiches which was pretty good i can't deny that. The only thing i didn't really like too much was the white chocolate mocha it seemed to be more on the strong side and a little burned if you were to ask me. The service was great don't get me wrong and the ambiance is very cute and relaxing . Especially in the back corner it was great, the only down side would have to be the gnats that were near the plants which was a little upsetting other than that it was really cute place. read more

I have lived on Broadway since 2007, born and raised in Tacoma. Today was the first day of the Broadway Farmers Market. I noticed a new café in the neighborhood. On the way home I went in and I am glad I did. I met wonderful owners and saw what they did to the old building that is historic in Tacoma history. I will definitely be supporting the best Organic coffee I have ever had. I have had lots of coffee in my 27 years without alcohol. Welcome to Broadway. A grateful neighbor, Kyle Jolibois read more

Food was good. The guy at the register was super friendly and the place was odd in a fun way.

Had the most delicious and savory biscuit breakfast sandwich at Cremello. The biscuit was moist and perfectly seasoned, ham and cheese in the sandwich was very tasty! Service in this cafe is top notch! Cozy and inviting place to enjoy a wonderful breakfast or snack! read more

The coffee here was good and it is a super cute place to meet with friends. The corner view is very nice with all windows and there is a lot of windows for natural lighting. That being said I went to work on some projects, but the wifi they have was very poor. I ended up leaving earlier than I had hoped because the wifi was taking forever. However, there is good access to outlets if you can use a hotspot or if it was just an off day for their wifi it would be a great place to work or meet up with friends. read more

Karen greeted us when we walked in, warm and friendly. She made great recommendations, talked about the history of the location and stopped by the table to check on us. You are truly lucky to have someone like Karen on your team! read more

Needed a great latte in Tacoma and coffee shop vibes. Loved this place. Beautiful windows to sit by and relax.

A delightful find in downtown Tacoma! Exquisite food and excellent espresso drinks, with relaxed and beautiful ambience. Highly recommended!

Lovely service, great breakfast sandwiches, very good coffee, warm and welcoming decor.

Great coffee. Cool space. Nice service. We're definitely looking forward to coming back.

The place is super cute itself, and the server was very nice. But coffee is extremely overpriced. Like $9.75 for a 16oz iced latte is just ridiculous. I wouldn't be able to justify spending that much on a plain coffee again. read more

I just had their iced coffee with milk and sugar. The price is very fair, the coffee is so smooth and delicious (not bitter at all!), and I didn't expect such a delicious iced coffee--far better than any of the coffee shops I've visited in Seattle. Man, I am craving it right now ugh! read more

Great coffee and friendly service! Didn't have a chance to try the pastries but they looked delicious as well!

I work nearby and thought I'd get some coffee this morning. Great coffee and I had their amazing cinnamon roll. Wow. Friendly owners were minding the shop this morning - it was fun to meet them. So nice to have a local business here downtown run by real people, not 10 proctologists in search of a tax shelter. I'd attach a picture of the cinnamon roll but it's gone already. Try it! read more

good food and coffee! it is mostly organic with a wide variety of syrups and organic milk options. the sandwiches are good! the staff was very welcoming and attentive and we got our food and drink quickly! the location is a very beautiful space! it is just a tad pricey though. all our food on the table was about $40 read more
