Crema Coffee House

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.

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.

Great place to get some work done (reliable WiFi and not too loud) or to relax with a good drink. Good cappuccinos and a chill and safe atmosphere. Plenty of seating indoors and outdoors too! Music is a mix of lofi and jazz beats.

Stopped in to quickly grab a coffee in the afternoon while exploring RiNo. Service was a little slow because the staff member running the register kept walking over to talk to a customer at the counter, but thankfully we were not in a big hurry. The coffee itself was good and they had a nice selection available in terms of drinks and food. Lots of places to sit as well.

The overall vibe here is eclectic & hip. It feels like a safe and inclusive space which is important for me and so many others these days. My girlfriend got the banh mi sandwich and said it’s the best she’s ever had. I ordered the breakfast sandwich on naan. Everything was flavorful. Plenty of vegan options.

Best lil coffee house in downtown Denver Colorado. Definitely a favorite among the locals

Coffee is legit. Rotating roasters and most the coffee drinks with multiple preparations is nice. Staff is well trained and helpful. They don’t make a cafe crema, even though it’s their namesake. Makes a little sense, since they’d need to dial in a separate grind size to make one. Vegan options are minimal. All vegetarian dishes are heavily reliant on cheese or egg to be tasty. They will fill reusable containers, which is great.

I love coffee shops that have soul! Crema is refreshing. The art and murals brought a smile to my face. The service was polite and happy!

I recommend this if you want a chill vibe to talk inside or on their back patio.

I am visiting from San Diego but I will going back before I leave ✈️

Great coffee, wide selection. Cool atmosphere, lots of seating. I had lunch here there other day, jambalaya and cold brew. The jambalaya was phenomenal, wholesome, and delicious. We came back the next morning for coffee and saw they had their weekend menu. The breakfast sandwich is next level. Layers of egg, bacon, mushrooms, on a freshly baked breakfast biscuit with hollandaise. I am sad I don't live in Denver.

Mixed review.
Unlimited coffee which tasted great, decent quiche (sparse on the meat sadly) NO WALL OUTLETS???? That’s an immediate one star for me usually but the product is good.

Unfortunately this is the first and last time I’ll visit due to lack of outlets…
