A basic white coffee and a chocolate brownie came to &pound;2.40. The coffee was fine, the brownie a bit dry and tasted as though it was made from a Betty Crocker mix, but served as a perfectly cromulent sweet and cheap snack. (The owners tell us that all the cakes are made on the premises from scratch, so perhaps their baker just had an off day.)

Cafe/restaurant in New Cross.

Bec visited late on a Saturday afternoon in October 2008. Weekdays it is usually packed with local Goldsmiths students, today it was busy but there were a few free tables and the atmosphere was more relaxed.

A basic white coffee and a chocolate brownie came to £2.40. The coffee was fine, the brownie a bit dry and possibly from a Betty Crocker mix, but served as a perfectly cromulent sweet and cheap snack.

Standard coffees, teas, and hot chocolate are served, along with some juices. The cafe is licensed and sells beer and wine. All food and drink is available to take out, with mains costing £4-£6, and smaller lunch standards such as jacket potatoes, toasties and soups from £2-4. View London suggests all food is vegetarian or vegan; this was verified at the last visit. Saturday menus are different to the weekday black board. The vegetables are sourced from an organic farm in Lincolnshire.

They also serve a mix and match all day breakfast, however like most cafes in the locale, it is closed on Sundays. They will only accept payment in cash.

Film nights are held twice a month and cost £6 - this includes either a main meal or wine and a brownie with cream or rice pudding. Films shown in October 2008 were Delicatessen and Betty Blue. They also hold once a month 'piano jams' starting at 8pm with a sign encouraging people to bring their banjos, ukuleles, guitars, fiddles and tambourines. Live music is hosted during the week with upcoming details on the corkboard and in fliers on the front window.

The terrace which houses Cafe Crema as well as the costume shop Prangsta and boutique/sometimes music venue/art installation Rubbish and Nasty is scheduled for demolition by landlords Goldsmiths in December 2009 but there is a petition/movement to stop this.
