Who needs a Starbucks when you find an amazing local spot like this? The espresso soda is amazing. It's perfect for a summertime pick me up. The flavor of the coffee is so bomb that I didn't even use sweetener which I do use a lot of the time. The baristas were super nice as well. Zev or Zeb helped us out and explained a good bit to us. Thank you, sir! read more

1st time today just stopped by for a quick caffeine fixed. I ask the barista what coffee they have and literally she said it's been sitting for hours. I was waiting for her to offer a new brewed coffee but she did not. It's few awkward sec pass by Ans I just ask who's their roaster. She said counter culture. I'm familiar with the roaster but not a big fan due to light roast,I have low tolerance on high acidic coffee. And when I order latte after 1 sip I knew this is not gonna be a good cup of coffee. There are so many smaller local coffee roaster that roast better espresso than Counter Culture and maybe option of full bodied espresso base. And also not much option for dessert which is advertised in their website. Hopefully this review helps the owner/management to update their items read more

Plan to have dessert, got disappointed nothing is available at all. Coffee from counter culture probably needs updating. Espresso base is too acidic and too light. Hope have better options for pastry. read more

Visiting from out of state and found this coffee shop on our way through. I try out lots of craft coffee places while at home and traveling, and was very impressed. I tried the cold brew and was happy with both the quality and taste. Board games on the table were a nice touch, and enjoyed the ambience. Would recommend! read more

They had a great variety on the menu. I had a strawberry smoothie and it was yum. By far the best part was how kind the folks are. They were great to offer local info as we consider a move to the area. read more

Long story short: I met my husband at the coffee place down the road. The owner sold it and the new ownership there is just not working. My husband tried to propose to me where we met and some drunks cut us in line and the barista at the place down the road ignored us. SO we walked to Crema for the first time and loved it. My husband proposed to me outside of our new coffee shop. We actually asked the owner for permission to take photos there after our wedding. They have music and art and try to cultivate a community there. It is what a coffee shop is meant to be! We now live in TN but try to visit crema every time we visit! read more

Crema Coffee Bar - a woman sitting at a table - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hartsville, South Carolina

I happened to be in Hartsville this weekend and needed my morning coffee. Of course, I could have gone to a national chain coffee shop, but I love shopping and supporting local merchants and trying new places. I found Crema. This place is a gem! I need it in my hometown!! They serve lunch, and I wish I could have tried it. The soup of the day was Spicy Corn and Bean. Curse my timing! But I digress. The have the usual craft coffee menu but, they also have a great menu of drinks with college themed names. Crema is near Coker University, and I'm sure a favorite of the student body. The menu has drinks like the Graduate, Undergrad, Elective, and more. I tried an iced Elective-a coconut mocha flavored cup of coffee heaven!! The establishment looks great. On the outside, you don't realize what a cozy and welcoming coffee house you're about to step into. There are nice tables for sitting street side but walk up the stairs and inside and be pleased. It has the feel of an industrial loft. There's a nook with a private table for a window seat and a mix of high top tables and comfortable lounge seating in armchairs. It's a very open space with a high ceiling and soft lighting. And, and . . . Annnnnnd a stage! I'm assuming they host bands, open mic, poetry readings, I dunno. But I was impressed and wanted to hear Smelly Cat immediately. The barista was lovely and professional. They sell merch with their logo and I was bummed I had ran in with only coffee money, because I wanted a shirt just to wear and hope people asked me about this place so I could sing their praises. If you are in Hartsville, staying or driving through, stop at Crema! You won't be disappointed!! read more

Wonderful Coffee shop with a comfortable atmosphere. Friendly staff makes you feel welcome. Started serving lunch as of 2-21. Located downtown Hartsville read more

Wonderful coffee with great friendly service. We tried the white frappe and black frappe both with soy milk and they were delicious! Can't wait to visit them next time I'm in town. read more

Very friendly atmosphere and really good coffee! The employees at Crema are all very friendly and helpful when ever you ask for suggestions, and all can make good coffee (as previously stated) while I have not tried there food yet I will sure be back to! read more

They started serving lunch today and we tried three things from the menu, all of which were great and exceeded our expectations!

Nestled in a quaint Shopping Center in downtown Hartsville area this Hidden Gem has the best coffee in route to Myrtle Beach. The Barista there is fascinating, the Chai blend is to die for. read more

So cute!! Great coffee and light food and they have a fun little collection of records for sale too

Not a bad place, good coffee, but slow as hell. I've tried the place three times hoping it would be faster, but ended up waiting 20 to 30 mins all three times and sometimes for a simple drink. If you plan to hang out for a bit reading or working, that's fine, but not if you need to get a quick drink on a lunch break read more

The staff is friendly and the place is clean. But three experiences out of 7 or so... and unless Crema decides to get some regular "coffee tasting" coffee beans I can't foresee our being back. I suppose it was the third time in a row their only 'strong' roast was a chocolate something or other that tastes like syrupy sweet staleness. I did also LOVE their outside seating , too. Wish I could give 3 stars for effort but not having coffee that tastes just like a strong robust roast w/o flavor kinda makes it pointless for me. read more

Staff was Really was not to enthusiastic about making my half caf decaf mint mocha latte with foam on the bottom served in a flower base! But they came around and made a wonderful drink and great customer service. P.S. I don't know who made those Butterbeer and mocha frappe cupcakes but they were awesome. They could make a killing selling those everyday! read more

My favorite coffee place in all of South Carolina! Their prices are great and the quality is much better than the big chains. The staff is friendly and puts up with my asking a million questions. read more

Nice cozy place with great coffee. Sit and relax or get it to go. The coffee here is the best in town.

Favorite coffee spot in Hartsville-friendly baristas, good strong coffee, and a cozy atmosphere where you can sit and chat with a friend, get a little work done, or just run inside and back out if you're in a hurry. My favorite is the Undergrad made with dark roast coffee-just enough of a kick to get a long workday off on the right foot. Give them a try if you're in the area on business! Keep an eye out for local music in the evenings as well. read more

Everyone I've spoken to loves this place. It's really great having a place to come work, relax, or meet up with friends. There's a really great community feel here - they call it a CREM-munity. Events every weekend like trivia nights, board game nights, open Mic nights, and live music. The staff is amazing, efficient, and super friendly. Everyone who works there seems to enjoy it and all pay great attention to their customers. I love coming here and only wish I had a never ending coffee budget (although the prices here are great)! Highly recommend it. read more

I love this coffee bar! The coffee is always good. The only thing that bothers me is the last 4 times I've been there they never have ceramic coffee cups. They always give us to go paper cups. When you go to sit inside for the atmosphere then you want a real cup to drink out of. They are always out of creamer also. This is a coffee bar! They should have these items. Love this place and I want it to do well. Just want them to get their act together with things that they should have in the place for customers. read more

We visited Crema three days in a row. Great service and great coffee. We are moving to Hartsville soon and we have Starbucks practically on every corner. This will be our go to place for coffee once we move. read more

I went to Crema back in May 2015. The menu was classic, yet phenomenal. It had both extensive hot coffee items and cold coffer alternatives. This is a FAMILY OWNED venture. Daughter runs it with the full support of mom/dad & siblings. The is a whole family affair and I appreciated their results. I ordered a cold drink - it was perfect. I sat there during open mic and there were a bunch of college kids supporting their friend. Great atmosphere combined with great coffee. I hope the residents of Hartsville appreciate what they have. read more

This coffee shop is the best one in Hartsville. I really loved the atmosphere as well as the service. Cute, hip, and welcoming.

According to the sign on the door they open at 7am. Apparently not today. No explanation. No one inside. Very unprofessional.

Cool place. GREAT COFFEE. No pretentious douchebags either. I love their iced coffee and their Chai Latte. Fantastic. The food is a Little lackluster and over priced, not fresh or made in-store. Drinks are a Little pricey but great overall. read more

By far the best place in town for all of your coffee desires. Very artistic atmosphere and wonderful service. Very clean coffee bar with the friendliest staff available! read more
