Awesome local breakfast spot. First time checking it out. Right around the corner from the house and love the fact they purchase supplies locally. Will be back for sure!

Absolutely loved the dark truffle latte, quiche, and danishes. Food and service were amazing. It was a great find and we look forward to our next visit. The patio was a great place for a quiet and relaxing breakfast.

I have been wanting to stop in here FOREVER, and finally did. They were technically closed, but the owner opened the doors for us and still served us, which was so kind! They have a great big patio, and a cozy adoreable interior. The owner was so sweet and gave us reccomendations and chatted w/ us about all her offerings. We will definitely be back to support this lovely little local business! Great for a meeting, or just a get together w/ friends. Right out of a cute hallmark movie! Coffee was super yummy and delicious too. Everyone enjoyed their drinks.

Before church my wife and I heard about CM from some friends. Look for the big sign that says coffee. A nice hidden cafe. All local and on Sundays omelette bar…yes please! Had the purple rain frap. Will be back.

We went this morning and although the coffee was good and pastries were good, I would never go there again. They do not have a bathroom that is easily accessible, you have to go behind the counter to use it. It was bizarre. Nothing is labeled in the glass display so I had to guess what I was pointing at. They did not have stir sticks for the coffee. The lady that took my order did not smile once nor did she say thank you for coming or anything of the sort. Strange place. For a place to merit the ratings this place gets, I was not impressed. Basic manners, labeling your product, accessible bathroom and a steam cleaned sofa is not a lot to ask for. To be very frank I agree with the other comments, the lady appears to be hateful.

Good coffee and breakfast options. The quiche is delicious. Definitely stop in the morning since they close at 2. Nice vibes and the employees are always kind.

Stopped here on my way home to get a coffee for the drive -- I got an iced caramel latte, and it was probably the best iced coffee Ive had! Very friendly staff, also got some coffee cake for my kids, which they loved. If Im ever in the area again, Ill definitely be back!

Got a coffee and some quiche. It was very delicious and the staff were nice! The only off-putting factor is the decor, as it is cluttered along with a stand that is in front of the counter, and it is outdated.Would go again though, to get a quick bite before work!

This was my 2nd time here & will certainly be going back to this little jewel. The owner was so sweet & kind as we were there a little later but still was able to purchase some pastries & couldnt resist getting 2 slices of pie (strawberry rhubarb & key lime). Cant wait to try some of the coffee based drinks as I previously had one of the rishi teas.

I’ve gone here 3 times and every time I go the lady behind the counter has the worse attitude, I only see her act friendly when it comes to white customers. The coffee is not even that good I just go there cause it’s close to the office, I like to support local businesses that treat every customer the same despite race, with that being said I’m never going here again.

Review №17

We were visiting family from out of town. When I went in for cold brew as their menu displayed cold brew coffee online and in person. I asked the lady behind the counter for 2 cold brews while our son was looking at the menu. The lady asked me if I want it straight up or in a latte. Cold brew is cold brew. Instead of questioning her knowledge at this point I went with it and said straight up and ignored not being greeted when arriving and her giving me a weird look prior to my arrival at the counter. I then asked if I could have sweet cream with cold foam on top. Her reply Jeeze, really while backing away as if I was nuts. This is not an unusual request. If a truck based coffee shop in a small town can do it, Starbucks does it, and every shop I have been to near Austin does it, then this is not that unusual. Her next response when I was confused as to why she would respond rudely to a customer was evident of her lack of barista skills where she said I can steam the foam but making it cold, come on. At this point I walked out and told her other coffee shops can do it. My social media feedback to this, if you have cold brew then you need to learn more skills to expand this option properly or not serve it all if you are going to be a cotton headed nini-muggins about it. Cold foam is simply french pressed cream that is pumped. You dont steam it you donut, taking Gordon Ramsey approach to her Barista skills as she displayed nothing but impoliteness to me. I went there thinking it would be a neat place with drinks labeled The Cure etc. Cold brew fans, do not go here as you will be highly disappointed.

This place is amazing, best local coffee Ive ever had. Ive gotten the muffins form here and the best part is everything is local even the sweets are local. I honestly believe this place is better than starbucks. The staff here are super sweet and friendly, you can ask any questions about the menu and the guy there tells you whatever you need to know.

I always love coming to this place. Great coffee quality!!! Great flavored coffee drinks, hot, iced or blended. Cold brew is also pretty awesome. Ive tried a couple of the baked goods which have never let down. My sister in law has tried several sandwiches and raves about the egg salad... she just had it again yesterday. Owner is super awesome!!! Great place!!!!

Review №38

This is a little gem of a coffee shop. Everyone was friendly, and I had a good experience. I did have to look past the tables and shelves with games and books cluttered about. There aslo seemed to be too much furniture in this space. However, the coffee and pastries! As a plain latte lover, I feel I can truly say that the coffee was great. I also had a scone, and it was delightfully not too sweet, with that still crisp, fresh from the oven outer shell and yet still tender on the inside. I was told it was brought in from a bakery in the heights. That alone you cannot find anywhere around. I cant wait to return!

Review №39

The coffee is excellent and so are the baked goods; both are local as is a variety of other foods. The inside is small, homey and comfortable, the owner and staff were so friendly and there is a nice patio. This is probably the best coffeeshop in the area.

Review №41

Literally my favorite coffee place. Not only do I love to support local businesses, but so does the owner. She cares about the local businesses in the area and even brews local coffee. The coffee is fantastic, the atmosphere is cozy (the outdoor patio is super nice too), the food is good, and she always has pie (which is from a local Baker). There are games you can play while youre there, and its just a really nice place to bring a friend (or a date), I couldnt recommend it enough!

Found this little gem while I was roaming the streets looking on where to have breakfast. I had the New Orleans Blend with a pump of hazelnut and it was so good! The cheddar bacon quiche was so fluffy and delicious. The owner was so sweet and helpful. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. All of her blends, pastries, and other supplies are acquired locally! I found my new favorite spot!!

I am in raptures about the caprese sandwich! My boss and I have begun picking up lunch from Crescent Moon Cafe on occasion, and I am working my way through the menu. 🙂 The caprese and the chicken salad sandwich are my favorites so far! I also love that I can get bags of Katz Coffee so nearby.

Great customer service, small place with tables outside. I came in for a waffle, but they have an alternating menu, so ended up getting an omelet that was still good. Cheddar pepper biscuit is so good, had to stop myself from ordering another. Make sure you check their Instagram to know the menu for the day.

Review №49

Feeling a little homesick for my Pacific Northwest quaint little hole in the wall coffee shops I decided to search out a little joint that gave me home vibes.I am very pleased to say that Crescent Moon offers just that. A small eccentric jewel tucked away in the back of a little shopping center making it feel like a secret little surprise escape from the hustle bustle of the mainstream.The atmosphere is refreshingly casual and very cozy. The music eclectic and familiar. The pastries delicious and moist. The coffee superb.The service is above and beyond.I had come in one time prior hoping to find something a little more tuned to the eccentric experimental flavors of Oregon. She did not have what I was looking for, yet gave me a splendid substitute.Upon my second visit, she had exactly what I was looking for and remembered my inquiry from my previous visit. Completely made my day.Definitely will be returning as long as I am in this area.

My husband and I loved our first visit Crescent Moon. Linda is so pleasant to talk with and allowed us to try their delicious cold brew before purchasing. Its so much more of a personal experience compared to a chain coffee store. I have been craving the espresso ever since, and we loved the bacon cheddar quiche. We plan to return as often as we can and highly recommend anyone visit here.

Person working here (male) acted very snobbish. The quiche crust was soggy and gross. Made with Crisco, obviously. Have any of these people even been to France? I doubt it. Pastry was tasteless, and an offense to the word. Coffee would have been better at home.

I was looking for a new place to go for coffee and saw this place. I was really surprised when I walked in. They have really good coffee - regular, cappachino, fraps, lattes. They have muffins. They also have lunch items. I will definitely go back soon and try their lunch items. Very friendly atmosphere.

Review №57

Ive been coming here for about 8 years now and I can honestly say no other coffee shop really lives up for me. Great coffee, tasty pastries and a nice little lunch menu with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is cozy and is complimented well by the playlist they have going. Linda and her crew take an active interest in both their customers, as well as other local businesses which is more important now more than ever. Cannot recommend this place enough. P.S. You should try the rosemary ham melt on the pretzel bun omg that sandwich made me question all other sandwiches :0

The owner was very sweet and willing to make anything. She asked what we liked and she made her own version which might I say... was amazing. I loved how low key it felt ans comfortable. We originally went here to eat breakfast because google recommended good places to eat breakfast but she does not serve breakfast. So she recommended First Watch... which again... was a good call! I also loved that everything was locally made at her coffee shop! There is outside seating as well as inside. No smoking is allowed. Which I also loved. Go check it out if you are a coffee drinker!#proudtexan

Really really wanted this to be my coffee shop I stop in on the way to work every morning .... but despite the Googler and the sign outside the shop itself (saying the shop opens at 7am) the actual opening time is 8am and I’m already sitting at my desk so... I guess this one isn’t it.

Such an awesome, small, locally owned Coffee Bar/Cafe with a cozy environment. I have been twice: Linda was there the first time and was very pleasant. I tried the coffee on tap and was very pleased. I went again today and had the Fallout Boy (chocolate and strawberry) Frappe and it is the new standard by which I will judge all other frappe drinks from now on. 10/10 will keep going. If you are lucky enough to live or work nearby, skip the franchise places; you have to try Crescent Moon.

Review №68

This is a good local place to sit down or walk in to get coffee. The coffee is locally roasted Katz coffee and the staff can make you practically any typical coffee shop drink you can think of.I meet a friend here once a week and it is a great place to talk and is usually quiet. Lots of folk come in and just buy coffee and leave.This place has no drive thru and usually only has one staff member working. If you are close to running late, this place probably isnt what you need.The coffee drinks are great, the staff is friendly and the owner gets to know her customers.I have seen people working in here on laptops or studying and this is great for that.This is my local coffee place for quiet conversation and good coffee.

Review №72

I wanted to like this little coffee shop, but I just had a super weird and off putting experience there. We went there at 2:30 in the afternoon to do a little work. For the first 5 minutes we were there, two other patrons waited in line in front of us and eventually left . . . no employee appeared. Once they left, the employee (owner?) reappeared and clearly looked put out that we were there. I ordered two iced teas and she said, I dont know if I can do that. I have to buy the ice and I dont know if theres enough of it. I dont actually drink coffee so we were at a bit of an impasse. Eventually she decided to sell us the iced teas and went back to make them, again, clearly not happy we were there. I asked her for the wifi information and she didnt offer it. Finally, she got the teas ready and I paid for them. She took my money ($6 cash), then gave me the code shortly followed by letting us know she was closing early (at 3 pm) because it was slow. I said, Well, we were looking for a place to work, so I think well need to head somewhere else. She reluctantly offered to let us stay while she cleaned but that didnt really sound fun to me at that point, so I said wed just find another place. She then said, Well Ill just give you your money back, and snatched the iced teas away and handed me $6. Okaaay . . . I tried to pick the local business but now were back at Starbucks. I would say Im speechless, but clearly Im not. Maybe she was just having a bad day, but I wont ever return there to find out. 100% will avoid.

My dad and I have started going there on a semi regular basis and we like it. We talk a lot there with the staff and they are friendly. The pumpkin chocolate muffins are delicious, and so are the frappes. Sometimes people bring their dogs by and its nice that theyre allowed to do that. If I could Id come here every single morning, but alas, life gets in the way. I recommend this place to people who are looking for a quiet peaceful place to sit and think or chat a little. They also have a neat assortment of books to read.

Review №84

What sort of games is this cafe playing?!Texas Pecan coffee that temps me to start drinking my coffee black?! A quiche thats so filling and hearty that I dont feel my masculinity threatened in the least for ordering a quiche?! An owner operator that is pleasant to talk to?!Since when did I want quality with my morning cup of coffee? Since when did I want coffee so tasty that I didnt have to fill the cup halfway with cream and sugar in order to choke it down?Thanks... and now that Ive had a sampling of what a quality start-to-the-day looks like, Im not so sure I can go back to the mediocre way of doing things. I may be so shaken that my morning routine will have to change.... Management will hear about this.All joking aside, thank you, Linda. Continue the good fight of never forsaking quality for quantity. You have my support.

The place is smaller than I expected, but gave the environment more of the feeling I was having coffee at a friends house than a business... in a great way. The owner was lovely and accommodating, a human gifting her service and not a money-mongering and faceless creature.Come in! It will be your new favorite place, too.

You have not tasted good food until youve been to Crescent Moon! The cuisine is always tasty and not at all garden variety, although it all tastes as if it were fresh from the garden (and it is!). Its a little corner of the world that your tummy will love!
