Crema is a fantastic coffee shop inside the Brentwood Place shopping center. The interior is a welcoming, causal vibe with a soothing atmosphere. Every time I've stopped in here, the place has been in the middle of the morning coffee rush, and yet I've always received my drink and food quickly. The coffee is perfectly balanced, and the pastries are delicious. Highly recommend -- I've now gotten in the habit of ordering online to save time and caffeinate my day! read more

It was really packed when we arrived around 10am on a Monday. They do serve pour overs! We ordered at the counter and took our table number stand at a table that recently emptied out. The hot La Fleur was very good. The fried egg sandwich & sourdough grilled cheese were delicious. I would recommend those items. read more

As I continue my journey to find a new coffee shop, crema has stepped up the game to a whole new level. The service was quick despite them being busy. I got my coffee within 5-8 minutes of ordering, and they finished making a coffee order every 30 seconds. They even garnished it with a candied orange even though I got it to go. Their coffee drinks are not sweet (which I like) and you can taste all the flavors. Their space is airy with plants, and plenty of conference tables to work at. Overall, I wish Their was one down the street from me so I could start my day off right. read more

Crema is one of my favorite Nashville coffee shops. It's one of my regular shops. Every coffee, tea, food item, and pastry has been great. This is a busy spot! I would suggest ordering ahead online if you are in a rush. In the mornings and around lunch on weekdays they are very busy. The menu stand in the line is perfect for making decisions while you wait. For dine in you'll order at the counter and have your food brought to the table. Every coffee here has been great. I love the Cortados, Pour Over, brewed coffees, iced coffees, and all of the lattes. I like that they have seasonal lattes and tea drinks. My iced teas have been good here too. The Brentwood's Avocado Toast is more than basic. The lemon, goat cheese, and chili flakes make it so delicious. The crusty sourdough is great. I like to add a fried egg for some protein. The pastries are great for a treat. I've enjoyed cookies and the cherry cornmeal scone. Crema is a busy spot for good reason. Definitely stop in for coffee and food if you can snag a table! read more

First time at this location, glad I got in and ordered before they were slammed with a line stretching the door! What a poppin' spot for a week day morning. Plenty of parking as it's in a massive plaza with lots of open free parking lot spots. Ordered the quiche of the day - a roasted red pepper from Dozen Bakery - it was fluffy and delicious. Also, one of their speciality summer latte's - the Tiramisu - that came with a lady finger and was perfection!!! Grabbed an iced americano to go before leaving and it was very bitter to me, had to add cream and sugar back at the office, where I am usually looking for a smooth easy to drink americano. The ambiance is so modern and chic, I enjoyed the middle community working table with dim globe style lights and plug in's for laptops. I loved having a spot to put my feet up on (being a shorter person things always a comfy thing to have). Lots of seating and great spot for meeting up with others! read more

This place has such a great ambiance and plenty of seating options to get work done, catch up with a friend, or enjoy some solo time. It's always pretty busy so order ahead if you are in a rush. I am a fan of their coffee- great quality and they always have rotating seasonal specialty lattes that are worth a try. I havent tried the food but they carry Dozen bakery items for quick bites. This spot is definitely in my coffee shop rotation and worth a try! read more

This coffee shop seems to always be hopping busy, and with good reason. The coffee is excellent, the service is great, the food is good, and they do a good job keeping the place clean and tidy. The only challenge with Crema is that it is so good that it draws quite a crowd. It is pretty common to have a line to the door waiting to order, and also somewhat common that most (or even all) of the seats are taken. But it is still worth a visit for a good coffee and more. read more

I visited here a few weeks ago to kill some time while my dad took a woodworking class nearby. I was looking for a nice cafe so I could do some schoolwork while I waited. Cream delivered! It's in a large shopping center so there's plenty of parking available. The cafe itself doesn't feel like a shopping center cafe, though -- the vibe is super refined and classy, beautiful, modern, and spacious! Lots of gentle warm light and plenty of spots to settle down. You order at the counter. They have coffee, obviously, as well as some simple meal options and pastries. My mom (who was with me) and I were able to snag a booth for two. Despite them being very busy, I think the space contained the noise well, as I was able to focus without too much trouble. Those who are super sensitive to noise may have more difficulty, though. The barista at the counter was exceedingly pleasant and helpful. I must admit that I'm a person who wants a little coffee in their dessert, rather than the other way around, and I was nervous these rather high brow coffee concoctions wouldn't be sweet enough for me. The barista suggested a beverage she thought would be a good fit and offered to make it extra sweet for me. Appreciate her help! I wound up with their version of a pumpkin spiced latte. I was morbidly curious about their coffee soda, too, so I ordered that on a whim. My drinks came out quickly. The coffee soda was a miss for me, sadly -- just a little too strange. I'm more than willing to accept that's a me problem, though. It was a very novel concept and I could see what they were going for with some of the flavor combos. Their take on a PSL was lovely, though! It honestly still wasn't super sweet, but the coffee was brewed so well and was so mellow I really didn't mind. The pumpkin was present but not overwhelming, and the whipped cream on top made it even smoother and creamier. Good stuff! Thanks for a nice hangout spot while in the area! I'd definitely return! read more

I was craving a nice warm drink and a cozy environment and Crema only partially delivered. I found the actual layout of the shop cold and uninviting. The seating and the industrial look did not bring what I believe should embody a coffee shop- cozy and comfy vibes. The music was obnoxiously loud and that paired with the large groups of people attempting to converse with each other created an uncomfortably noisy environment even for someone who is always wearing noise cancelling headphones. Both the employee who took my order as well as the barista who handed me my coffee were not very courteous or inviting. As for the food and drinks themselves, I ordered the masala chai latte with oat milk and the spicy smoked salmon toast. The chai was delicious - perfectly spiced and full of flavor. I definitely would go back just for a to-go chai. The toast was laughably not spicy. I have the lowest spice tolerance of anyone I've ever met and I couldn't feel an ounce of heat in the roast. The arugula was also used as a bed for the toast, which I found odd. I can see how that would be more aesthetically pleasing, but made for an especially messy experience trying to put the arugula back on top of the toast. The toast itself was well done but just so messy! read more

Staff is friendly and quick to help. Spacious for working / chatting with friends - plenty of seating and tables (a couple even outside if the weather is nice!). Music isn't too loud either, so you can actually enjoy yourself while there. Every latte is about $6 or so, so not the most budget friendly place, but is yummy! read more

Simply put, Crema is the best coffee shop in middle Tennessee and we have to start having the conversation about whether it's the best coffee shop in country. I used to live in NYC and have been to the top rated coffee shops in at least LA, Dallas, Boston, Charlotte, NYC obviously, and Crema is better. I've now been to both locations. I don't even really like coffee that much (my wife does) and have loved every coffee I've ever had from here. My pet peeve is when places have a flavored drink and it doesn't taste like anything different than a normal coffee. Crema always has some unique flavors and they hit you right in the mouth with what they're supposed to taste like. The cherry on top is that it's actually a good value too. The prices are very competitive compared to similar craft coffee spots in the Nashville, Brentwood, Franklin corridor. read more

What a delight to finally have good coffee and baked goods in Brentwood! I've gotten to try this location a few times and it's actually one of my favorite locations of Crema in the Nashville area: really great ambiance and seating options for doing work or meeting up with a friend for a bite and a beverage. Incredible service (Isabella is the best!) even when it's super busy (and it's ALWAYS super busy). Very VERY clean despite how busy it is: I would have expected more chaos/unkemptness with the water glasses or tray to put away dishes, but staff really keeps up with the foot traffic here and I love that. Crema is truly one of the best when it comes to specialty lattes and the seasonal latte options are truly what I come here for: I've never had a miss with one of their seasonal options. I also absolutely LOVE that they have pastries and goodies from Dozen because sometimes I don't want to drive all the way to Wedgewood Houston for a good croissant. I have not tried the food options at this location yet but the menu is such a breath of fresh air with yummy healthier options than what's available at other breakfast/lunch places in the surrounding area. My two gripes about this place that honestly they can't control: way too many people love this place and it's always so freaking crowded (line out the door almost always when I go in.) Means it's hard to just grab and go a coffee when I want to. Also means it can get quite LOUD in here during particularly happening hours. Again, not their fault for being too popular (and helps illustrate how much Brentwood needed an actually good coffee shop), but it does prevent me from coming here sometimes when I really want to! read more

Always love a good coffee house! Staff is nice and attentive! This place is really busy so can be hard to grab a table sometimes. Great food, decor and most importantly coffee! My only gripe is how loud it's in there. I think it's more of an acoustic issue. Would really like to hear the music they play while I have my coffee. They offer a few outdoor seating options. Highly recommend their croissants (warmed) - we had the ham & cheese and a chocolate one! Both fresh, flakey and delicious. Coffee was fantastic! Latte with almond milk was great and generous serving. Cortado was good also but a little on the burnt side. read more

Hands down THE BEST avo toast!! Only regret is not getting the soft boiled egg added to it. The avo mash had flavor, the herbs gave it a fresh taste, and the pepper flakes added the finish touch bringing a little heat to eat bite. Vanilla latte with oat milk was just as delicious. Service was prompt. The staff here are very friendly and attentive. This was a popular spot during the hustle and bustle of last minute holiday shopping. read more

My friend and I were in the area for a wedding and were looking for a decaf pour over that most places don't do. Crema is one of the few places that does and it didn't disappoint. Food was very good as well but it's a busy place so the counter service was kind of slow. If you're wanting to sit, my suggestion is to get a table before entering the queue for counter service as they seemed to be quite full most of the time. read more

I cannot think of a better addition to Brentwood than Crema! I have been giddy about this location since the moment I heard it was going in. They have made excellent use of their new space -- lots of seats, lots of outlets, strong Wifi, and good flow. The shop is fresh and bright- I imagine it'll be the perfect place to sit and be productive, but so far each time I've visited, I've bumped into lovely people & wound up chatting for the length of my lattes :) Crema's coffee always satisfies. You know how sometimes you spend $7 on a drink and then think to yourself "Ugh. I would've preferred XYZ Coffee. What a waste." ? That doesn't happen at Crema -- The coffee is smooth and rich. None of that acidic swill some establishments are slinging... Crema is better than the rest, plain and simple. I can specifically recommend the cuban & the coffee soda. I've gotten them before & I will be getting them again! read more

Went to this coffee shop on a Sunday afternoon to meet a friend and it was BUSY -- which usually means it's really good. This was no exception -- both the food and the coffee/tea drinks we tried were delicious, and even though there was a steady stream of people there was room to sit down and enjoy. They've got unique offerings, the ambiance is beautiful, yet relaxed and good for hunkering down to study or meeting up with people! Would definitely recommend this spot if you're in the area! :) read more

The coffee is really good, however it is pricy. I paid $7.68 for an iced vanilla latte with oat milk not much bigger than my hand that was really 70% ice. I'm not one to sit in coffee shops or do work there, but I can't imagine coming here to do so if that's your vibe. The place is completely packed at 10:50 AM on a Monday and almost all the seating is full (there's a lot of seating too). I will say the employees are nice and the service was quick. It was a nice thing to try once (and delicious!), but the price for the size and coffee to ice ratio is just not worth it. read more

Brand new location in Brentwood. Relaxing colors of green, white and natural wood tones with is a concrete floor in an airy room it was full of life when walking in. Baristas are warm, friendly & efficient. There's obviously been a lot of work put in to open this location & it shows. After a short wait (very reasonable, given the line almost out the door), my latte with honey, cinnamon & oat milk was ready, complete with "have a great day :)" on the side. After one sip, I knew I would! read more

Not really a coffee shop to relax; prices are way too high. The cortado is not worth the over $5 I paid, and the food is just okay. There is also a strong cooking smell inside, indicating poor ventilation. I won't be going back. read more

I've lived in Nashville for 15 years now and Crema is hands-down my favorite coffee in town. The Brentwood location is not only convenient, but it's a great vibe and I've never had trouble finding seating. Most importantly the coffee itself is a 10/10 regardless of location! read more

Good location and plenty of parking; good coffee and pretty good menu. My only suggestion is to be aware that it's extremely crowded in mid- to late afternoon, one has to wait to grab a table - we've experienced this twice in the past several weeks. This may not be the place you want if you're looking for a relatively quiet spot to have some coffee & a snack at your leisure. read more

The drinks here are to die for! We tried The Lutito (their current specialty drink) and the chai latte and both were 10/10. The decor is sleek and you can tell a lot of thought went into every detail. The team is so friendly and knowledgeable and you could tell they were having fun together even though the shop was extremely busy when we came in. From an accessibility standpoint, there is a curb to step up from the parking lot but there are ramps close by and there are no stairs to get into the shop itself. There are two single stall bathrooms and both are wide enough for walkers and wheelchairs to enter easily. I believe they both have grab bars as well. All in all, I can't wait to go back and try more of their drinks and food! read more

The coffee is good. The service is not. I ordered a coffee, mocha, and tea. They gave me a number and said they would bring it out to us. 5-6 min later they called my name to come get an item. 5-6 min later they called my name again to get another item. Why did I tip if I was going to be running drinks? The tea was the wrong tea, but we decided to drink it and not complain. I waited an additional 10 min before I went to the counter to see if they forgot my third order. They told me they were out of coffee... Were they just going to let me sit there all day and wait? Why didn't they come tell me they were out and I wouldn't be getting my order? The people working there today are careless. All they had to do was tell me they were out, but they chose to ignore the issue and hope I would just leave without my order. The manager should be ashamed for not training them to do their jobs. They asked if I'd like to substitute watered down espresso instead of coffee. I declined and they kindly refunded my money. There are plenty of other coffee shops in Brentwood who don't hire careless employees. read more

Dear Crema, I have always wanted to try you. It seems as though, almost overnight, you have gained a following. My friends can't stop talking about you; I hear your name wherever I go. Even my pastor praised you in his sermon. You intimidate me. Every time I drive by, it seems as though all of Brentwood is sitting inside, and overflowing outside. The Brentwood aristocracy lines up, scaring off my sweatpants-clad self back to Dunkin Donuts, where I belong. I have driven by all summer, but only today did I feel a rather supernatural confidence to conquer my fears. Upon entry, I felt like everyone was staring. They could tell that I was a Crema virgin. The patrons were beautiful. The restaurant was immaculate. Well-lit. Dare I say, elegant. You are too good for me. I do not deserve you. Yet, I pushed forward against my insecurities. I've heard people complain about the long line, but I found it to be a respite from this cruel world. You forced me to pause, to contemplate, to ask myself big questions. Why am I here? How much longer will I suffer? Upon getting to the front, I thought I deserved two iced coffees for my bravery and my boldness--and my pain. Yes, you are overpriced. But I am $1000 in credit card debt; what's $16 more? Thus, I left with an iced vanilla latte and and iced mocha. I had never tasted better. I conquered my fears. You are more delicious that I could have ever imagined. I am currently tweaking with caffeine. There is Crema coffee in Heaven. I feel like I could run a marathon. You've made my sad life better. I think I love you. read more
