Reviews of La Crema Caffe (Bakery)

Tristan Murray

I often come here with friends, however after its recent buyout they've changed the branding on the menu to "Sips n sweets" and have left the sign outside as La Crema. Confused as to what it's really called.

Grant Novak

I ordered an Italian soda and they made it with TONIC water. ECH!

Bonnie Berlinguette

..coffee was ok...packaged treats are ok..but not much seems to be made at the cafe

Junta

This place if one of my favorite non-chain places for food. The place is clean, decoration is good and the food is good. The cafe's renovation is one big part in how it looks more modern now. My favorites are the creme brulee and the bulgogi panini.

Nicole L

Nice little treats & great drinks; however very overpriced.

Michael Wilson

Always a treat to get gelato or an Italian soda and sit on the patio during those warm summer months after walking through the farmer's market. Very comfortable space where you can enjoy your coffee, a snack, and read a book or write. They also have food items such as panini's, pastries, quite a few gluten-free options, and, wait for it... smoked ribs, wings and pulled pork. You'll leave satisfied.

Grayson Golding

This is honestly one of my favorite restaurants in St. Albert. The food is really good and the meals you can buy here are filling. I've loved the coffee here for a while. It is a bit on the expensive side though, $22 for a meal and a coffee but it's well worth the money.

Erica Myles

Had the spice tuna sandwich and it was delicious.

Lindsay Ames

This morning we went to La Crema and it was lovely, we ordered a coffee and a breakfast, my only complaint is that they don't open early enough. My friend and I usually go for a walk and grab a coffee at 8 am but they dont open till 930. I love the vibe in the shop, and the atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and we will be back. Might have to make our walk time a little later in the day!

Brendan Ferguson

I visited in the summer and the coffee was not good at all. You need higher quality beans or fresher beans or something. Cozy place otherwise

David Nette

Nice Hazelnut Mocha Latte!! Great location...bright corner. Simple but good food for a quick bite. Had a Panini that could have used just a little more ingredients. Could use a little update in Decor but I love supporting local friendly businesses.

Jason Hill

I have been going to La Crema for years. It is a downtown St Albert staple. Great breakfast bagel sandwiches,, other sandwiches and wraps. They also have a great selection of deserts and amazing coffee!! I had a cortado with oat milk today and it was perfect.

Amber Faganello

It was just ok and kind of pricy.

Kyla

Sooooo delicious! Definitely go here, the food is amazing and the atmosphere inside is really chill and beautiful.

Nora Richmond Clark

Disappointing. Not much choice and none looked appetizing but I chose a cinnamon bun after being told it was fresh out of the oven. It was so dry, it was inedible. I asked for butter, but still couldn't finish. My friend said her cookie was stale. Too bad, with decent food this cafe could be a popular meeting place again.

Valerie Desnoyers

Great coffee, very good food options. Very friendly staff.

Sarah Carefoot

This was a lovely little spot. We enjoyed the ice cream. I tried the pistachio, salted caramel and mango sorbet. The coffee was good and my daughter loves the handmade products being sold there too. They also had a water bowl for my dog.

Jon Veltman

Great aesthetic, the food and drink is delicious and I highly recommend this cafe.

Gordon Reid

Outstanding experience from the service to the quality of food, coffee and tea. We will be back.

Teresa Mills-Clark

The line-ups are fierce which corresponds to the wait times.

Janine M

Very delicious and simple meals served with love! I had the matcha latte and was really good. My son ordered the grapefuitade and it was delicious and refreshing! The panini were toast to ???? ???? when visiting St. Albert, don't miss out on stopping by this cute coffee shop.

Marc McLaren

Great coffee!

Kerri Hall

Great ambience, great coffee!!!

Tara K

Delicious lattes! Awesome, quick, and friendly service. Food was delicious! Love that they have gluten friendly options. Great spot!

Brandon Craft

Delightful, great place to study

Patrick Cairns

I love this place! It has a very comfortable atmosphere and very good coffee and snacks. The big difference between here and other coffee shops is the service. The owner is amazing and she always takes time to talk to customers. It is a small business coffee shop and is definitely worth stopping by whether for a date, business meeting or just while enjoying the farmers market during the summer. Take an opportunity to support this wonderful small business!

Dawn Budney

Excellent coffee excellent ice cream. Thanks for Being open on a Sunday.

Leah Seidl

Stopped in here today after the International Children’s Festival, decided to try the chicken bacon ranch sub...it was amazing! Fresh, toasty, melty, and delicious! Really decent portion size too! My husband and I shared, and felt pretty full. Lovely patio location, perfect for people watching! Friendly owner. Will be back!

Gillian Fradette

The sign on the window said open, but it was closed. I came by at 530 on a Friday for the Rockin August car show and there were a lot of people sitting outside in chairs, but all confirmed the shop was closed.

Ken Dorland

Very nice decor , gf items and service

mary reimer

Was divine..had lavender Italian sodas and bagel with cream cheese...atmosphere was great...

Jeff Roth

A fresh new look on a classic St. Albert cafe. Loving the switch to Transcend coffee too!

Jessie Marie

Really nice cafe with a large variety of iced and warm drinks prices similar to Starbucks for reference. They have lots of indoor and outdoor parking as well. If you go on Saturday just be aware that the outdoor farmers market it's taking place so parking will be difficult.

Mackenzie Orban

Good food calm atmosphere

Candice Pierce

Not good coffee :( I went in for a cappuccino and it was the worst I've ever had. Small size was 16oz! And it was just watered down espresso with bubbles on the top AND it was sweetened, I didn't ask for that

Ladislav Starnovský

Love their coffee!!!!!! Very tasty and delicious! And very very friendly staff!

Styx They\Them Fierce

Very good paninis. The croissant looked amazing. And the pizza is beautiful. The desserts are good. Also I had some issue with my toffe oat espresso drink and they not only allow me to try and drink it byt when I was not happy with it they remade me a drink. So I can say the hazelnut espresso drink was delicious. Definitely a good place to hang out and chat.

Deberah Kearns

Always have good gluten free treats. I had apple pie.

Sudip Barua

Nothing special. Little expensive.

Kyle Wagner

Great service, drinks and food! Nice spot to relax and enjoy some time.

Vincent Banville

In my opinion, the products (food and drink) are pretty over priced for what they are: $2.35 for a small drip coffee, medium brew is the only option. The location is great, and the staff tends to be really friendly. Lots of gluten free options, lots of vegetarian, no vegan.

Retro

Beautiful and neat! Friendly staff and lovely food!

Chloe Fulton

My favourite coffee shop in the city! Such friendly staff and delicious food & drink.

Master of Fun

Mediocre coffee, not great customer service.

MidNight_YT

I woke up and i thought of this very tasty Sandwich named Chicken BLT so i went driving to La Crema Caffe and i loved it! The chicken and bacon was so delicious and cheese cake was absolutely amazing! And the table decorations were very beautiful. You will regret it if you never come here!

Julie Hawkins

Nice atmosphere, wifi didn't work staff didn't seem to know how to reboot. Food was ok.

Doug Seidl

Had a sub there, the chicken ranch one. Damn! That was a great sub. It was toasted, with melted cheese, and everything was just so right about it. Highly recommend.

Ryan Spotowski

Great little coffee shop in the centre of St. Albert. The space is bright with lots of windows for great people watching. The staff is friendly and efficient.

Sheena Pond

Cute and cozy and DELICIOUS coffee!! I had an eggnog latte with a pump of toffee nut and it might be the best Christmas coffee I’ve had. So well made, and the staff and friendly and warm. Support this lovely local business.

Annette Stumph

Great service.. Good drinks

Nice coffee

Aaron Budnick

The hours are not great, but the coffee and food are good.

Jon Crane

My favorite when in town.

Kirk Dewhurst

Nice coffee shop in the heart of St Albert. The staff is friendly and courteous. The washroom facilities are clean. At this time there is no dine in due to COVID, only takeout but that will change in time. The ambiance is great. I have come here a few times over the years and and have always enjoyed the the coffee and food.

Junha Lee

Their Croissant sandwich is very good. I really like the blue lemonade soda too.

Cam G

Nice cafe in a great location. Pleasant staff and beautiful outdoor setting with beautful sunset

Stacy Carleton

Fresh delicious coffee. And yummy snacks

Cozy, noisy when busy, but a delightful local shop. Where did the flowers go? I sure missed them today as they usually add ambience to our botanical city. Patio available

Andrea Levicki

Easy parking, good service good food.

Becky Medel

This place is so chill. They make the most amazing peppermint mocha and vegetarian panini. Super friendly staff.

The Dave Forsyth Band

Great atmosphere Love to sit outside with Charlie the parrot

Steven E

Nice small coffee shop

Will

Avoid at peak hours. Frenzied staff, unorganized orders, and good luck getting a half decent drink or food in a reasonable time. Not recommended with other available cafes nearby.

Jaredd Thornton

Great service and selection of food and drinks. Just watch out for Saturday mornings with the farmers market, can get pretty busy

Josh Oosterveld

Amazing service. Great freshly ground coffee. Good atmosphere. Nice people. I will be a regular here.

Viktor Forsberg

Leonardo Kogan

Quaint little shop! Extremely friendly and helpful staff! Only had drinks but their food selection looked delicious!! Will definitely be back to try!

Nyomi Swan

A great place for a coffee or meal downtown St. Albert

Priscilla L

I sometimes visit this cozy place. The staff is always friendly. I ordered Bulgogi Panini and Alfredo Chicken Pizza today. Pizza dough is gluten-free. The more I chew, the softer and sweeter the texture. It was very delicious!

Jeffrey Horspool

Similar experience as most of the other customers. I prefer my coffee full bodied. Atmosphere is nice. Caffe is clean. Staff is pleasant.

Chloe V

Great menu selection

Annie Trepanier

The whip cream in the hot chocolate had gone bad. The cream in the coffee made us sick, also. It was overpriced.

Izaak Koolman

I had a dirty chai, it was good but pretty weak. I'd prefer a little more chai flavour for something that price.

Ocean Zuber

I went for the first time not too long ago and it's way over priced. I bought 2 chicken BLTs and it costed 21$. Other than that, the food was alright.

O'Shae Anderson (Papyrus)

Nice small place to relax :)

Christy Bruce

La Crema has new owners, (close to 2 years probably) and they are awesome! Great service and the atmosphere is clean and bright with local art on the wall. And they serve good cafe food and excellent Matcha Latte's! Highly recommended

John

Coffee. Better than every other place. Real creme

Cassandra Wade

Really nice cafe with lots of seating. Lots of traditional hot drinks with specialty coffee flavours as well. The iced white chocolate and blackberry latte was delicious!

Terry Perron

Good food, haven't tried the coffee yet.

Tracy Kolenchuk

I often stop in for coffee and a date square or cookie. Has some gluten free foods. Nice quiet place. Patio in the sun, inside in the shade. Wifi.. People often meet there to do work or business meetings in the afternoon.

Karen Smith

Stopped in for a quick lunch and had a great turkey panini with artichoke hearts in it. Delish. Decaf latte was great as well.

L Lewington

Coffee was divine but the red sauce on my chicken BLT was not! You should not add the red hot sauce without asking, it is an unusual choice for a condiment and gave me terrible reflux.

Dmytriy P

Will be very good during the summer time

Melanie Harris

I was disappointed by the decor of the coffee shop , small plant pots on the top the tables with cheap aprons (by the way I visited last year before they renovated , I thought they will improve a little bit the design but nothing was changed ) also there is no respect for social distancing Coffee was Meh , food was just Ok but pricy for this kind of quality They served their cakes in a plastic container that looks very cheap

Mark Poon

Great food, perfect patio and amazing people running it. #supportlocal

Sean Slatter

Had a panini. Best I have ever had. Beautiful caffe. We plan on making it a Saturday tradition.

Tom Anderson

Nice

Chris Knorr

Decent coffee/tea. Good treats. Better than average atmosphere. But overall a bit pricey for the average to good quality.

Matt Walker

Its a great atmosphere with a great cup of coffee. Might not be as quick as your drive thru experiences at other places, but sometimes we gotta slow down and enjoy our time. Also my gluten free friends, they do Pizza!!!!!!!

T. Merle Rusnak

Unique quiet reasonable prices I highly recommend it.

Sheryl Ferris

Great! Locally owned.

Marihan Lansing

Great place, love their mocha

Kaitlyn Beckman

The coffee is always good and the workers are really nice, a great place to sit and chat.

Matthew K

Great coffee, great service!

Barry Haugen

Great coffee shop.

Rob King

Great quiche & coffee.

Betty Dubois

I enjoy the lattes here and the service is excellent. Very cozy atmosphere!

Jihyun Koo

La crema caffe is open everyday from 9 to 5. Not sure why google shows permanently closed on the schedule.

Don S.

Very nice staff. Good food and a lot of food options.

T R

Espresso is not made correct. ‘Small, medium and large’ are not sizes for espresso. Bathrooms dirty but the place was busy as the St. Albert farmers market was on. Extra star for location.

Sandy Krebs

My favourite coffee shop!

Bob Woodford

Quiche was tasty.

Conor Woodside

The best coffee and coffee products in St. Albert. However, their food offerings are weak, and they have a severe problem with opening on time.

David Dawkins

I like it. I feel relaxed there.

Steve Farrell

The staff was courteous and the coffee would rival anything that you could buy at 7-11 for less. I bought a grilled cheese pannini. The bread was your typical Dempsters sliced fare. By the time I finally got the sandwich all the moisture had been squeezed from it. The bread was very dry. The cheese was much like the standard marble that you could buy at Sobey's or Safeway. The experience was bland at best. It did not leave me wanting more.

Joohee Lim

Very nice and pretty area Delicious food and very nice service

Laura Lewis

Visited in September. The coffee was pretty bad the service was good though and the place was clean. I would think about getting better quality beans or something.

metthew sa

Cozy. friendly. good ambient

Nylla Moroziuk

Waited here while our dog was at the groomers. Had a good breakfast menu and friendly staff.

Ed Greidanus

Good Latte and Cake. Recommend

Kristiana Sinding

Very cute setting and good soup and sandwiches. Definitely a go-to cafe if i want a good bite to eat along with a hot drink. They used to do music and poetry nights but don’t anymore which is really sad and unfortunate.

Tasmin Welling

Great coffees, place is great

Danyah Rahall

This cafe is so cute, and chic. The food was amazing, the matcha latte was to die for, and it honestly is one of my fav cafes now!

Averyl Dewindt

Very good cold drinks

John Hayes

June 16 2017 I have been here a few times ,thought I would try it again, ordered a spinach salad and a chicken BLT, $25,50 (small I best add)Not very happy at all , paper plates, spinach salad ,well you can't mess that up, BLT was stone cold,cheerse not even melted just thrown on. Salad looked awful, very disappointed, will never go back.

Gina Potter

awesome!

Rik Klinge

I've been coming here for years, fantastic vibes, excellent coffee, snacks and the friendliest baristas. I highly recommend this hidden gem!

N Cousins

How quaint and perfect! Love local coffee shops!

Nancy Hardman

Staff very friendly. Service was great.

Lara Mack

Beautiful cafe, great service. Breakfast bagel and coffee were delicious and worth the trip.

Sandi Walls

Cozy, comfortable little coffee house.

Jacinthe Ly Dang

Cute coffee shop in the heart of St. Albert. Friendly staff. Americano was tasty; beans were from Transcend. The carrot cake icing was a little too sweet for me, but overall a nice experience. I will come back to try their wide array of gluten free options.

Court Wells

I used to love this place the food was always excellent but after the owners changed the food went down hill and then again when the owners changed it got worse. Today i had a spinich quiche and a latte. The Quiche was raw and the latte was barely warm i will never come here again.

Miguel Angel Sarvin

Normal place to enjoy a good coffee and spend a few moments with your friends or yours work partners!!

Jeff and Kerrie Gamble

Great food and exceptional service! I had the chicken BLT sandwich and it was excellent. They have a great selection of high quality tea, a bonus for tea enthusiasts like me. I work in the area and have been to this cafe before and it was not as good as it is now with new management. I will definately be back often!

Holly Hayes

This used to be a great place to go in St.Albert. My husband and I went for lunch the other day. When we walked in there wasn't anyone there to greet us. We rang the bell at the counter and got a yell from a man in the back. When he came to the front he was wearing sweat pants and didn't even greet us with a smile. The food was sub-par! We payed 26$ for a bottle of water a tea and 2 panini sandwiches that were just ok. The cafe was freezing cold just like the customer service! We will NEVER go back!

Mervin Gallant

Excellent pulled pork sub!

Nelda Schulte

I've been here a couple times. Both times the service is horrible. Everyone at the table gets served at different times.they forget orders, they dont6 offer compensation for their mistakes. . Dont give coffee refills or bring cutlery with the meals. When the warmed up pie it was cold in the centre. You're You're always running to the front to ask for things tgeh missed.

Ken H

Love my coffee and gluten free snacks!

Kirstan Sonnenberg

We stopped here at the recommendation of a friend. La Crema didn't disappoint! The staff were lovely and the sandwiches were great!

John Hempstock

The latte was as good as promised. Staff super friendly!!

Too expensive

Kurt Anderson
