The Best Caramel Macchiato in Sandy Springs

Caramel Macchiato at Crema Espresso Gourmet near Sandy Springs

Steamed milk marked with a fresh shot of 100% Arabica espresso and finished with a lattice of buttery caramel over velvety microfoam. Warm, smooth, and just sweet enough, a proper macchiato done the European way.

Why ours is worth the trip

We pull the shot fresh and texture the milk by hand, so the caramel rounds the drink out instead of taking it over. Hot, it is a different drink from the iced version — warmer and less sharp, not the same thing over ice.

A Napoleon beside it is a lot of sugar in one sitting; a plain croissant is the better call.

The easy one to remember, because it is essentially a single road.

Drinks are pulled to order and take about a minute, so the 11 minutes from Sandy Springs is most of the wait already. Ordering ahead skips the queue at the counter, not the road.
