This coffee house is very lively and joyful. It's a sweet family run place and is a gathering place in town. They serve very good coffee and drinks, haven't been disappointed with any drink weve tried. There is plenty of seating in this cozy shop. The decor is very cozy and sweet and if you look you'll find the story of the owners framed on the wall making it all so charming. read more

Decent coffee shop with all the bells and whistles you'd expect. Neither of us loved our drink and the egg and ham sandwich and the cinnamon roll left a lot to be desired. It was packed and not much room to navigate. What we found annoying is they don't take a name, or anything, and everyone just crowds around the counter waiting for their order. The barista who was calling out orders could not be heard. I don't need this kind of chaos this early in the morning. read more

The ambiance is amazingly relaxing, the staff is super friendly, and the food is delicious. Honestly I have no complaints. read more

Crema Brew - Egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and large coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New Bern, North Carolina

I really wanted to love this place, as I had read so many wonderful reviews, especially touting the friendliness of the owners. However, I was deeply disappointed in the egg and cheese sandwich I ordered. It was presented completely untoasted, and the bread wasn't even buttered. I got it with American cheese, which was cold. They were super busy that day, so I hope this isn't their standard practice to serve a room temperature egg and cheese sandwich? I also didn't want to bring it back to the counter because there was a huge line of people waiting. I had also ordered a piece of peach coffee cake, and my spouse got a bagel with peanut butter, which came toasted. Both were decent. He said his hazelnut latte was a little too sweet, but otherwise good. Overall, it was just OK. I'm a local so I don't know if I'll be back. read more

Delicious coffee and breakfast sandwiches! Bread was very fresh. Service was friendly. We plan to return.

Why does there coffee taste like wet cardboard? Service is okay as long as you don't have a service dog.

On our way from Myrtle Beach to the Outer Banks and we picked this little gem of a coffee shop because it was half way in between! The coffee shop is in an old building and is just charming and with an old world feel! We were immediately welcomed by helpful, very friendly staff serving up great coffee! It's really hard to pick which baked goods you want because they all look fresh and delicious! They have everything from breakfast sandwiches, to muffins, to pies, to cakes, etc. We had cappuccinos and muffins and they were just what we needed! Just loved our stop here and wish we didn't live a thousand miles away. read more

Sweet little coffee shop. Many choices, great friendly staff. Glad we found it on Yelp when staying in New Bern Will keep it on our "best of" list when we are in the area again. read more

While staying in town with friends, this was our choice for breakfast today. Everyone loved it. The staff was wonderful. The breakfast sandwiches are made on some of the freshest bread I've had in a while. Every pastry we tried was incredible. And the game room vibe just worked for our 9 year old. This place is doing something special here. read more

If I could give Crema Brew 10 stars I would - the atmosphere, the baristas, the baked goods and let's not forget the phenomenal espresso. The service is quick and always done with the warmest of smiles. Hands down favorite coffee spot in town read more

Delicious! Stopped in at Crema for coffee. Service was fast. Didn't have a chance to try a food option but they have plenty of choices. This is a place I would stop at again read more

We got two drinks, a bagel, and the soup plate! It was amazing! I loved the tomato bisque and my bagel was the best, super fluffy and soft and plenty of seeds on top The service was great, and the lady taking our order didn't rush us at all, since it was our first time in. The vibe of the inside was super cozy and cute, but it's a little warm inside. Plenty of people were sitting outside and next time I'd love to do that because they have a whole patio. 10/10 read more

Crema Brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New Bern, North Carolina

The chocolate frappe and large peanut butter chocolate chip cookie were my favorite. The complimentary water helped dilute that sugar fix. The three men who worked there were sweet. The whole place is kept clean. There is outdoor and indoor seating. Bern is the German word for bear; thus all of the New Bern Bear artwork thr read more

I love their coffee and the baked goods, especially the cinnamon "bread" - actually not sure what they call the cinnamon baked goods but had it twice and it's delicious! read more

I have been at Crema Brew many times. Food is always yummy with good service and excellent ambiance.

Super cute. Lovely people working. Got their signature Salty caramel latte, iced and four of their giant cookies. The latte was as expected, a bit too sweet for me bc I forgot to ask them to lower the amount of syrup but the cookies are amazing. Perfect amount of chewiness, a little salty and sweet. I got the ginger-molasses and was just as good as the ones I make at Christmas. read more

I fell in love with this place the moment I walked in. The vibe is friendly, hospitable, warm, welcoming. The employees all had smiles on their faces. I had the egg salad sandwich and the tomato bisque. The sandwich was solid. The bisque was warm and creamy. What a wonderful experience. read more

Crema Brew - Cheddar bagel with egg and cheese and a smoky bear latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New Bern, North Carolina

My family and I stopped here on the way home from the coast. Staff was super nice! We ordered 4 sandwiches, coffee, and a bagel with cream cheese. The bagel was soft and chewy - delicious! My family enjoyed their sandwiches as well. It has a great ambiance overall and I recommend coming here if you're in the area. The decor is old world style and cozy. One word of caution - parking is limited as is the seating. I've read that it gets pretty busy here. We arrived towards the end of their business hours so it was easy to find parking and seats. read more

An amazing place! Great coffee and service!! The deserts are delicious!! Love the ambience as well.

Cute little coffee shop with tons of options for specialized coffee. The workers here were friendly and answered all of our questions. We saw the bear statue and realized tons of these are around town, so decided to go on the ear hunt! Tons of fun and definitely would come here again for another latte. read more

Any place that has oatmilk is awesome for me. Best chocolate caramel steamer ive had so far in nc. Their pecsn pie was rich and buttery but not too sweet (for pecan pie). Owner seems religious judging from signage. They also contribute to several local causes. Patio is dog friendly. Nice place. read more

If you want to support a local coffee shop, there is no better shop in New Bern than Crema Brew. Another great locally run business located in an up and coming community. The family revitalized an old building and turned it into a great stop for coffee, large portion desserts, and great homemade lunch items. And your barista fix will not disappoint. read more

Love this cafe! I bring my toddler a couple times a week on our way to drop him at daycare. The owners are lovely and give him chocolate coins. The food is amazing! Homemade pastries, egg and cheese on homemade bread (my personal fav), sandwiches for lunch. It's a very cozy feeling spot with great decor. The tables have some games on them to entertain you or kids. It gets pretty busy on weekends, but nothing too crazy. Overall great spot! read more

Quality drinks and baked goods. Very welcoming staff and customers, all are very nice. Their drinks and baked goods are quality, delicious goods (I've not tried the sandwiches.) The ambience is interesting and pleasant. One small con is the parking, although I still drive past other coffee shops from River Bend to go to Crema Brew; I've tried the others. read more

I loved everything about this place! The service was excellent and the cookies, to die for! I had a chocolate coconut late. . I will have that again!!! read more

Love the atmosphere - very social and communal. The coffee and cookie were delish. I'll definitely come back when I'm in town.

This is a really cool coffee shop that offers many great food and drink choices. Their lattes taste amazing and they have home made breads and pies. We had the ham egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches and they were really good. The salty caramel latte was amazing! The baristas are very friendly and they have games in the back room for entertainment. Plenty of outdoor seating outside and a good amount of seating inside. Highly recommended if you're in the area or about to head out on a flight since it's near the airport! read more

Lovely, peaceful, easy to access independently owned by seasoned cafe people who are taking a chance on New Bern to run a business. DELICIOUS coffee and baked goods. Many options including breakfast and other sandwiches on Carolina bagels or house made bread. Friendly and welcoming, with fun antiques inside, board games, a meeting space, and a large patio. The owners trace their ancestry directly to Bern, Switzerland, sister city of New Bern. See the Bearista outside! read more

Coffee was pretty good. Its a lovely cafe with plenty of space. However, I had a simple question about a coffee they could make and staff was very rude to me about it. I wasn't rude or anything about my question. just curious if they could make something special and if they couldn't I would understand as many café wont. However, they were rude about it and there was zero reason for it. read more

What a cool little place I found. It's run by an elderly couple and I love that. The interior is very unique. My pumpkin spice latte is delicious and so is my egg salad sandwich. Happy to have found it read more

Wonderful coffee, positive attitudes, and homemade treats are the formula that makes some places good. Add the wonderful family that owns and works there, then you get a place that is excellent! I love how they greet EVERYONE with a smile, then proceed to make your day even better with a hand-crafted beverage and homemade baked goodie! What a great example of positivity in a business and a family. Thank you Zook family for bringing more sunshine to our great little town! read more

Hand painted walls and hand crafted latte. This is an amazing story about a man and his family who basically built this place by hand. It's a real small town refreshing place to great a coffee.

This business has no idea of what customer service is. They are downright rude. You cannot talk rudely to people, especially since you have no idea if that person is bringing you more business. I tried to partner up with them and had a nasty experience. read more

Good service and food and ambiance is always a pleasure when going to Crema Brew. I drive through the town always just to come here for the best service and friendly smiles. My dog still gets her pup cup. I would rather have my "Cup of Joe" made and served with LoVE. There is always something going on at Crema also to donate to usually local and other charity organizations. I just love it. Amazing positive VIBES only in the place even the customers here are a kool bunch. read more
