We were looking for a coffee shop on our way home from a weekend in Mentone and found this little gem. Everything about this place was perfection. I had the Butter Walnut Sweet Cream Latte and my husband had the Snickerdoodle Latte. Both from the Seasonal drink menu, and they were absolutely delish. The coffee has low acidity and my choice wasn’t too sweet - making this one of the best coffees I’ve had in a while. We also had pastries that were super too. Overall 10/10 experience.

Service is great. There's always a delicious selection of fresh pastries as well as a great seasonal lunch menu. Highly recommend the responsibly sourced teas and coffee. Ideal quiet spot to grab a bite while exploring downtown. Pics of the menu may be available online, but since it is seasonally changing, visit their social media platforms for the most recent version.

I found this unique small restaurant by accident looking for another place, and I'm very happy I did cause it is my favorite restaurant in Fort Payne, AL. Why, you might ask? It's not every day you pull up to a store front with large planters outside the shop windows full of flowers with outside patio seating. I liked the American flag flying outside, too. It reminded me of a cafe in Europe. As I walked in the front door, I immediately noticed modern bright white walls, old molding, and exposed orginal brick block wall bottom half. The jaged drywall with old school bricks was a nice touch to old life to new beginnings for this shop. I also liked the unique lighting with orange light shades that made it pop with the white and tan colors. I loved this place not just for the decor but the

Absolutely a wonderful road trip stop! Cresta really shares Southern Hospitality! Delicious breakfast sandwiches and warm poppy seed muffins. Yummy coffee! Definitely worth checking out when you are in the area! Thanks Cresta for a great memory on our way to FL!

Paid 7 dollars for a matcha that was mostly milk. Food was ok, they just need to add another scoop of matcha. I get charging extra for expensive brands but this is just stingy. This was my first time in and unfortunately am not impressed. Matcha is not supposed to be this light in color. This drink cost almost as much as a meal! At least the customer service was very nice.
