Crema Coffee House 2862 Larimer Street, Denver, CO 80205

"Dear Crema, Thank you for turning my difficult morning upside down with this lovely latte and breakfast burrito. I can feel the love energy all around in this coffee shop. Bright faces, happy employees, lively customers, and just what I needed to start the day right! ✨"

"The best location for specialty coffee and espresso I found near downtown Denver! Different kinds of coffees are sold, from milk based ones like latte to cappuccino to french press, pour over and espresso. They also had bags of beans. Personally, I really recommend their espresso, it's made me come back here multiple times because of their very thick, yet still not bitter or burnt, shots."

"This place is the OG of coffee in the Denver area. I’ve been coming here since 2010 and despite the changes in staff (as any place opened as long should have) the greatness has never lapsed. The espresso is excellent…they use a combination of different roasters from all over the US. It is rare that you find a coffee shop that produces top quality espresso with house baked goods…I know there are many that try. I applaud them, but none can match what Crema does here. Their service is quick yet patient. At times there are lines, but the staff handles the rush with efficiency and friendliness. I have traveled throughout the world and I have not found Crema’s equal. They’re quirky (as you’d expect in a thriving artistic community), skilled, and consistently excellent."

"Nice atmosphere, lots of nooks to sit in. They have a great and interesting menu for a coffee shop, which is refreshing! The sweet potato waffle could do with a bit of salty butter."

"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."
