Pandan latte done right. Not too coconut-y and not too sweet. Yum! Drove by to pickup something across the street and noticed the cute logo and display sign on the street. Staff was so friendly and invited us inside instead of standing outside looking at the menu. Definitely will be back. Gotta get those loyalty stamps

Listen. I have been a Cream customer pretty much since they opened. I have seen menu items, employees, and decor come and go. What's amazing is how it only ever gets better. The fizzy coffee lemonade thing that all the coffee joints are TRYING to make these days? this was the first place I first had it and this is still the ONLY place that gets it PERFECT. seriously: the cold brew lemonade is to die for. So, I just stopped in and, on the strength of recent reviews, tried the pandan latte... and I am not 100% sure that there is legal precedent for a drink being this perfect. I generally steer clear of this sorta thing as I like my espresso to taste like... espresso - but this thing is pure magic.

Cream Coffee and Tea Shop is the absolute best! The coffee (Stumptown hair bender is my fave) and the pastries are delicious! The staff should all take a royal bow- they are a big reason why they have such a loyal following. Everyone working there is so kind- they even have Polaroids of clients' furry friends on the wall! I especially love their addition of the take out window as I can walk my pup there and get my order without having to leave my dog. The neighborhood wouldn't be the same without Cream and the wonderful people Ping hires!

Cream is a cute little coffee shop on 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge. They have a nice little walk-up window for people with pets to order without going inside. Every time I've been, the staff have all been super friendly, upbeat and just generally great. I like their coffee, and would definitely recommend visiting. It's always nice to support local businesses .

Obsessed with their banana foam matcha ;) it’s not on the menu, originally banana foam latte but I asked to switch with matcha and the staff was happy to help!

Haven’t had cream in a while, but their hot/ice coffee was always a hit so 5stars it is. Order from the window

Pandan latte was absolutely delicious and staff was shy but friendly. Atmosphere is a little lacking, and 2010s club music is blasting, though they do have tables for working.
