    Ahhhhh!! I'm so happy they added two size options to the menu!!!! Our order came out super quick, and tasting PHENOMENAL... as always and as expected! I shared the breakfast burrito with my friend, the one with hash browns, eggs, avocado, and bacon and it was to die for. My coffee and half a burrito kept me stuffed all day. I love love love it here!! I keep coming back for more The vibes and ambiance for a Friday was chill with a bit of foot traffic, people quickly coming and going with some people sitting and enjoying their coffee + company. Thank you guys for maintaining your quality and customer service!

    Black Sesame Latte
    Mary A.

    I got the Iced Black Sesame Latte ($9). It was creamy and not too sweet, which I appreciated, but I was hoping for a stronger black sesame flavor. It came off a bit subtle for my taste. Still, it was smooth and enjoyable. The pricing is definitely on the higher side, especially considering the portion size, even for the largest drink. Parking is mostly street metered, with some neighborhood street parking available, but it can be a bit difficult to find a spot during busy hours. Overall, it's a nice place to try at least once, but I'm not sure I'd return often given the price-to-value.

    This place has a lot of hype and I needed to test it out. The way they decorated the place is cool and the line went by fast. I ordered a banana peanut butter matcha (peanut butter cream top). All of their drinks looked yummy! It was a good matcha, I would come back. Not too sweet and the cream wasn't thick enough for my taste but it did the job. I would come back to give it another shot.

    Day Date and a DJ
    Bianka G.

    Went to a Pilates class down the street and lucky for me they were still open in the evening. There were a lot of good drink options on the menu. I honestly didn't know which to go with, but for my first time I went with the Day Date Matcha. I really enjoyed this flavor combination and would get again. We also tried the passionfruit matcha and it tasted more like a green passionfruit juice. Drinks range from $5-$9 They are open until 5pm and then re-open from 6pm-11pm (Tuesday thru Sunday) for the evenings along with a DJ and Greek food from Yasu Guys out front. It's a whole thing and smart move. I would like to try a few more items from here when in the area.

    -Super cute spot -friendly staff Been here 3 times and hasn't been long wait times - my hands down favorite is crème de la crema *note: they only have one size

    First time here and not impressed. First of all the wait time is horrible. I waited for 25 mins for my drink and it was so little that it took me few sips to finish it. By the time I got to my car it was gone. The drink tasted ok, similar to Starbucks shaken expresso taste but with a nicer cold foam. Not sure what kind of beans they are using here. Very loud music so people talk louder to hear one another. Very unpleasant ambiance indoor. Maybe the outdoor seating is better if you are not having it to go. . Online orders get pushed up so you just sit here and wait and wait. Parking was hard to find on a Sunday afternoon Customer service was not friendly except the person that handed me the drink. At least he thanked me for waiting for so long. ...

    I drove fast past Creme Cafe on Ventura Blvd and it had the most beautiful vibe that I turned back and knew I had to go in. There's a soul of this place and a kindness. The music was on point and the people were fun! I love the seating and the windows being open as the somewhat cooler be breeze blue in. This is a good place to post up journal and enjoy their freshly brewed drip brew. They have understated coloring books for the kids and welcome dogs, too! Great job everyone. I def wanna try that breakfast burrito next time! I'll definitely be back and maybe I'll drive that moped around in the lobby - or at least rev it! See you all soon! Vroom!

    Date Day
    Jessica G.

    Not surprised at all, jam-packed venue, long lines, people standing at almost all corners waiting for their drinks, and extremely tricky parking situation *sob*. My first impression, 'this better be good'. I could easily see the place as a perfect spot to hang, being semi-outdoorsy, if only it wasn't this crowded. But hey, I'd just embrace it and honestly this should be expected for any new spots in LA. They offered handful of signature options, some of which weren't that commonly offered elsewhere. They even had their winter specials as additional choices. If you fancied some munchies, they offered pastries from Bread Lounge and Breakfast Burritos. Reading some reviews, seemed like they're kinda polarized so I decided making my own choice of order. The most peculiar one IMO was their Date Day, serving your choice of matcha or espresso with date syrup, milk (of which I picked almond), and cream top with cute 'date skewers'. I would agree with those saying the coffee was more on the acidic note, which fortunately got masked a bit by the date syrup. The default was slightly too sweet so recommended to request for less sweetness if you weren't big sweet fan (disclaimer I love sweets!). The date flavor didn't stand out to me, but the syrup still tasted decent. Would I come back for the same drink? Prolly not, bur I might for either their Double Matcha or Creme de la Crema, just for curiosity!

    Crema is definitely a cute new addition to Sherman Oaks the corner location, open-air vibe, and trendy aesthetic make it a fun spot to check out. The owner was genuinely sweet and welcoming, which I really appreciated. My friend and I both ordered the Crema de la creme and here's where my experience was mixed. It seems like this drink is not consistent, I've seen photos online where it looks totally different than the one we received. Unfortunately, both of us found the flavor to be bitter and a little "off." I didn't even finish mine, which says a lot because I normally love coffee drinks. For the price point, I expected a better balance and taste. The vibe is great, and I can see why people come it feels trendy and photo-worthy. But at least for this visit, it felt like the ambiance and branding outweighed the actual product quality. Maybe I came at an off time, because the reviews seem strong, so I might return to give another drink a try. For now, though, my experience lands around 3 stars or 3.5 if judging by the friendliness, location, and atmosphere alone. Cute spot, worth checking out once, and hopefully next time the drinks hit the mark!

    This spot is so cute! This would be a great place to grab coffee with a friend or even pop up your laptop to get some work done. I like that it's a very open concept with the inside of the shop being open to the outdoors. There's plenty of seating outside on the sidewalk and some bench seating on the inside. Might be tough to grab a seat cause it's busy! I got lucky. I got a Matcha latte and a cold brew. Cold brew was very mild, and the Matcha was really great quality! I don't like my Matcha latte sweet, so I can taste the full Matcha flavor. It was very bold, but not too bitter. They didn't have any pastries when I came by later in the afternoon so probably more of a morning thing. I would definitely come back to try more of their Matcha drinks specifically the yuzu Matcha which sounded really interesting as well as the date Matcha drink. I love to see another mom and pop coffee shop open up in the valley! Also their logo is really cute. Overall, very hip vibes here and good drinks! I didn't really wait that long for my drinks either. Very kid and dog friendly!

    I should have been the FTR since I've been watching this coffee shop get established for months...From Club Pilates that is...LOL! Today I saw the balloons and customers going in and out while in class & made my daughter go with me when we were finished:) We walked inside and ordered our drinks with the owner Dasha, who is adorable BTW and very friendly. The baked goods looked fresh but I was all about the coffee...of course... The baristas were working calmly and efficiently to get the orders to the customers. The wait time was not fab but will chalk that up to just opening yesterday. I ordered a Signature drink: Creme De La Crema @$8 which was iced. It was very good but too small for me (12 oz)... *Unfortunately, this place only has 1 size - 12 oz for iced & hot. With that said, I will try a hot drink next time to get more bang for my buck. My daughter ordered a matcha made with coconut milk which she liked. *Very Clean *Friendly Staff *Outdoor seating *Free Wifi

    TLDR: The latest bombshell coffee has arrived specializing in some really unique matcha flavors, with good seating, and decent parking. New coffee shop just dropped! And honestly this place is hitting the spot for me than some recents I've tried. Ordered: Iced Date Matcha wo cold foam (4/5) This was actually a special menu item and the cashier reccomended that if I wanted something less sweet I should go for it. And she was right. I think this had the perfect amount of sweetness (which was not actually sweet at all?) With that said it might be someones cup of tea more with the cold foam. Ambiance: 3.8/5 Here's my thing about shops now is that there's actually not really seating for you to sit there for several hours and crack a book open. There's tables along the perimeter but inside its just those half desk situations you'd find at in a college classroom with a long bench to supplement it. Its cute but not very cozy. The interior however is very cute and without all the tables inside it does feel airy, open and inviting. Parking: 3/5 Its on ventura so only metered but its off the corner of woodman and ventura and dare I say a better block of ventura to actually find parking than I'd say for anywhere else. So by its standards I'd say its "good" I definitely am excited to come back here. The service was good, the music was good and my order came fast. Hope to see this place around for a while.

    Came to check out the new coffee shop and left underwhelmed. I was initially excited as Crema's logo design looks so cute and I hoped this could be a fun new coffee spot in the area to add to my rotiation. Parking on or near Ventura is always an experience, there is no parking lot in the back available for customers, which leaves customers having to circle the block and pray a few times to be able to be lucky enough to park close by. I had to park on the side street this cafe borders, about slightly over a block down inside. Parking here is also restricted so please check signage before leaving your car. Ambiance wise,,, I do not understand this new design trend of making your coffee shop as uninviting as possible. There is nearly exclusive indoor seating (fine) but the interior seating arrangements make it uncomfortable and unwelcoming to sit and stay longer than maybe 30 mins. They also leave their windows wide open, which sounds fine in theory!, but they did this during the week it was pouring and it blew in cold air and literal rainwater into the shop?? I understand wanting turnover to accomodate for more customers but yeesh this was,, an experience Hot chai latte 2/5, tasted like slightly spiced hot milk, definitely needs more chai spice / blend. incredibly small for the price. Matcha einsappner iced 3.5/5, this wasn't bad but the matcha:milk ratio was off + it was $$ for the size it was

    Ask the Community - Crema

    Which of the coffees can be made dairy-free/ vegan? I'm interested in the Crema Fog, the Toasted Black Sesame Latte, and the Salted Maple Latte specifically. I know it says "choice of milk" but one contains milk-tea and another condensed milk.

    I can't believe how many times I have passed by this coffee shop and never noticed it. Walked in…read morethis morning at 8:40AM and got a very nice welcome from Mary. Actually, all of their employees. Place was packed. Wanted to see and know the sizes of the cups for me to decide which one to go with and the price difference. I went with a medium size hot decaf (one shot) Vanilla Latte with Macadamia Milk. Also got a Blueberry Muffin and a plain butter Croissant. I thought that they would also have some breakfast items like egg, bacon, sausage, cheese etc..they didn't. They only had plain bagel and Cream Cheese. My Latte tasted very good, on the flip side the Croissant wasn't as warm and fresh as I wanted for it to be. I asked the ladies behind the counter to warm it up again. The muffin was very fresh and delicious. Lauren handed me the Latte and my goodies. I don't want to dock a star for the Croissant, but it could have been a lot more fresh. Place was clean, with one gender neutral restroom, inside and outside seating, and the price was right for the 3 items that I got. $14.00 in total plus my tip of $2.00. Street parking only, woman owned, beautiful art work on their walls by famous artists, merchandise for sale, and nice music from the 80's playing overhead. Last but not least, under the businesses amenities page it says, no dogs allowed. It was dogs galore inside and outside. No offense to people who have dogs, but outside is ok, not inside..

    This place is a hidden gem! I come here regularly for coffee, and it never disappoints. Not only is…read morethe coffee consistently delicious, but the pricing is surprisingly affordable compared to many other coffee shops. For two large iced coffees, I paid around $12.50, which is hard to beat for the quality. One of my favorite things about this spot is the atmosphere. The ambiance is warm, welcoming, and makes it a great place to relax or catch up with friends. The staff is always attentive, friendly, and genuinely makes you feel valued as a customer. My go-to drinks are the Caramel Royale and the Vanilla Rose Latte over ice. Both are flavorful, well-balanced, and never overly sweet. I also appreciate that they offer a variety of milk options, including 2%, which isn't always easy to find at other coffee shops.. Overall, this place delivers on quality, affordability, and customer service. If you're looking for great coffee without the premium price tag, I highly recommend stopping by. I'll definitely keep coming back! Thank you guys!

The main thing that stands out here is their 1987 coffee roaster which is the center piece of the cafe. They roast various single origin beans on a daily basis, so you know you can purchase some fresh coffee beans here. If you need your beans grounded, they do grind it for you depending on your brewing method. They have beans of light roast, medium roast and dark roast and sell by various weights for a very reasonable price. They also sell various tea leaves, baked goods (croissant, muffin, scones, bagel, Danish, coffee cake, Dessert Therapy cookies, and merchs. They also have a seasonable menu that changes. When I went, it was the Sakura season menu. Staff were all friendly and were very willing to answer any questions regarding the menu. Please note, the base coffee blend for each day varies and rotates on a daily basis For my visit, I tried ... 1. Buttered Coffee (4.5/5) The base coffee for the day was the Peru single origin, which was well-balanced; slightly sweet with a hint of tartness and nuttiness. They then add a chunk of butter into the coffee, which helps cut some of the acidity, but also is supposed to enhance the caffeine effect and give you additional energy from the fat. It does leave a layer of fat/oiliness so if you are not a fan of that, then this may not be for you. The butter did give it a subtle buttery flavor, which I personally liked. 2. Matcha with Sakura Cold Foam (4/5) The matcha was blended smoothly and was not grassy at all. The Sakura cold foam didn't really taste like Sakura (been to Japan, so know what real Sakura flavor should taste like), but instead, just tasted floral. 3. Columbia Supremo Whole Beans Full body and aromatic. Good for those who like to drink black coffee 4. Guatemala Huehuetenango Whole Beans: Crisp, acidic and a hint of nuttiness Glad I found this local roaster where I'll definitely be coming back to get some more fresh beans.

I also ordered a pastry and was surprised they don't have an oven to warm it up, which made the experience less enjoyable.
