such an amazing atmosphere and the owners were so sweet. there was live music and a ton of vintage finds, clothing, vinyls, etc. will definitely be coming back :)
Not only is this a great tasting coffee shop, but it’s also a music venue, and a thrift shop. What more could we ask for? There’s a lot going on in this shop, so make sure to take your time to look through the records, the local art, and of course sip a specialty flavored coffee. I went in the fall time, so I tried their Werewolf Latte and it was AMAZING! I seriously could go on and on about how great of an experience I had at this cafe, it was so much fun to take your friends, make new friends, and meet the friendly baristas. Go check it out! *Overall Results* -10/10 for good vibes -10/10 for good drinks -9/10 for customer service -8.5/10 for aesthetic -9/10 for money value
The bread is the best anywhere. I bought 3 rounds and we finished them in 24 hours. A must stop when I'm in Las Cruces. Also, all the different flavors of jams and jelly are awesome. The prickly pear syrup is one of our favorite go to dipping sauce for french toast.
Absolutely amazing. We came on a chill Friday morning and I ordered a matcha without any sugar and wow, it’s phenomenal. There are so many places to grab a seat and enjoy a cup and even play a game of chess or checkers. Great place and I highly recommend!
Great coffee, music, and atmosphere. All the great reviews are true! The owners are friendly and down to earth. A lot of cool items to look at and buy. Nothing else like it in las Cruces, so it's unique. We will definitely come again.
Super cool coffee shop. There was live music when we went on a Saturday during the market. The people who served us were super kind and helpful. The coffee was good and macadamia milk was an option for non-dairy milk. No vegan treats were available when we went. Really cool space with lots to see and a make an offer thrift section in the back.
This is my favorite place to hang out! Best Matcha, coffee and chai! And you can buy a box of their coffee for the office, which they'll deliver! Frankie and Leilani are so friendly and really make you feel welcome! The Saturday night salons are always fun and entertaining! With live music every Saturday during the farmers market, Friday mornings and the Wednesday morning musician and writer gatherings there's always something going on! Not to mention the selection of vinyls, cool vintage shirts and clothes and the thrift store in the back, there's not another place like it in town!
I have played and visited this little venue often. It is a great place to preview songs and release newly published albums. The coffee is good and the people are wonderfully friendly. Thanks so to Frankie.
