This cafe is tiny but darling. The place was packed, which is a good sign. They had numerous tea options. I got an iced orange-tangerine herbal tea, which was beautiful and delicious. It had quirky decor, including the bathroom filled with Freda Kahlo portraits and a lighted tin statue pictured here. The lone waitress handled the task with efficiency and great attitude. read more

Love the vibes and decor, but was a little disappointed with the breakfast. Food portions were pretty small, the quiche had great flavor but was pretty tiny for the price. The round roll sandwich was also difficult to eat. Our teas came out with "great value" Walmart teabags in them, pretty sure we paid $6 for that... been wanting to try this place for awhile but sadly was not impressed overall. read more

Nessa's Cafe - Quiche - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

The building is Pepto Bismol pink and easy to find. Vanessa 'Nessa,' cause s the owner and had served her community for ten years. The menu looked promising but I wasn't up for any 'sit down' and her baked goods pantry was diminished. My standard latte breve was 'just right.' Also, Ms Nessa is engaging and (dare I say?) a bit 'hippy'ish. read more

I refuse to patronize a place that is run by Trumpers. I went once before the place changed hands and the food and service were just ok.

Delicious food! Unique menu! Support LOCAL businesses!!! Will definitely return soon! read more

Nessa's Cafe - Eggs in a Cloud! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

My last review was worded a little too harsh and deleted so this one will be toned down. That breakfast that was delivered was a total waste of money. It came out to $37 for a bagel, a small egg, and a couple grapes. At the end of eating my bagel, I noticed what looked like a beard hair in it. It could have been something else but I'm not sure what could pass for a beard hair. So not only did I feel ripped off by the portion, I also felt disgusted. I won't be ordering from Nessa's ever again. If you want a delicious breakfast that will fill you up, probably twice from one plate, go to Wecks. Wecks is money well spent, unlike Nessa's. read more

Great food. The buffalo chicken egg rolls are very tasty and come with ranch, with an apple turnover for dessert and ice tea to wash it all down. I highly recommend this cute, locally owned cafe. Great job to everyone at Nessa's!! read more

What a great find. Eclectic menu with resonable prices and friendly service. Tiny but they do have an outdoor area. We're here for a month and going back often. read more

The cutest family run cafe in las cruces. I absolutely love the decor inside, the service feels very personal and nice (and fast). The prices are fair and the food is great. I always have to get the lavender orange iced tea, it is my favorite! read more

We've been wanting to come here for quite a while. It's tiny inside but found a seat so we sat. Our utensils and menu was brought immediately. And then we sat. And we wondered. Nobody ever came to take our order. So we got up and left. read more

The best part about this place is the service and fair prices. Locally owned, this is a good place to support. Coffee and food was great. The workers and owners talk to everyone and regulars are always there. The seating inside is sparce, but there is outdoor seating as well. They close early so you get that fun coffee shop vibe while you can. Highly recommended. Nessa herself is a great chef! read more

Fun little place. We didn't try their daily specials, but they looked good. Had the stacked salad

Tiny café. Not a lot of seating. Wanted to enjoy the space outside, but a group was smoking pot and it was not an optimal area to enjoy food. read more

What a great place! We enjoyed the food and fellowship. The place is small but encourages fellowship with your table next door. Loved it!! read more

Coffee was great. And a very good breakfast burrito to go with it. The owners are very very nice and welcoming.

If you're in the area, you absolutely have to stop here, cool looking place, nice and clean, staff talked to me about that they have and fan favorites. I got the orange lavender tea and the cloudy eggs. All great and made fresh. read more

Nessa's Cafe - Cloudy eggs with bacon and toast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

Fantastic hidden-gem breakfast and coffee spot! (okay, maybe not-so hidden with the bright pink) Nessa is hard at work serving up homemade and absolutely delicious breakfast plates (and more, like pastries & quiches), and most-importantly high-quality coffee, and at affordable prices. With customer WiFi and outdoor seating, I would recommend this great cafe to do some minor work/study/reading and enjoy a unique breakfast offering in Cruces. read more

We had the pasta soup, coffee, BLT my hubby had the burrito. My daughter had chai latte. Everything was really tasty, friendly staff. Very clean. Is small Inside but we eat outside anyways. We definitely be back. We recommend it. read more

You must go. Small, hip, delish! Go if for nothing more than a light and made fresh that morning pastry and some coffee. I am a mocha fan (iced or hot) and theirs if fantastic! Sure you can get a breakfast plate. I tried the house made chorizo and eggs (super dry!) but next time I'll add green chile and it will be perfect. The toast that comes with the meal is house made, thick, fluffy slices of heaven that you slather with butter. Little fruit salad on the side. I highly recommend a side of bacon no matter what you order. It's absolutely divine. Try their Italian sodas. They have a sugar free option too. A small patio outside where they sometimes have music. Note: It often takes a while to get your order. They make each one with love and patience. Enjoy your cup o Joe while you wait and visit with the other folks who know a good breakfast place. read more

Delicious homemade food, and caring staff! We wandered into their quirky building thinking about a late lunch. In no time, we were seated and feasting on quiche and a green chile scone! (Since they make their food from scratch, they do run out of some items later in the day.) We also had a great conversation with a couple of friendly regulars. read more

Great little place in older part of Las Cruces. The atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming with great service. The coffee is some of the best ever and the food is great. It's a little diamond in the rough. read more

Great attentive service, fair menu prices, amazing coffee, and their plates/cups they serve the food in are soooo freaking cute !

As of November 17, 2020, they have reopened for take out. Open Tues-Fri 7-2:30 Sat-Sun 8-2:30 closed MON. I saw a posting on Facebook for them. The State of New Mexico has shut down all sit down dining for now, so I am sure they would appreciate customers who want take out. Please use them, they are fabulous. Since I reported earlier that they had closed, I wanted to make sure to update that they have reopened. read more

It's Charming, quite a small space but SOO worth it. The food was absolutely fresh and delicious. The place has a homey vibe and I probably could have had 1 of every pastry. They do have a drive-through as well if you want to just swing by before heading about your day. read more

We were happy to find someplace with a couple choices of gluten-free pastries. However, they don't last long as people order them up early. When we arrived, there was only one gluten-free choice. It is really difficult to find good gluten-free pastries in Las Cruces. The iced coffee was delicious. read more

Absolutely amazing service and atmosphere. Inside this cute little cafe you will only find fresh and made from scratch ingredients. We got the whipped coffee and loved it, super fully and creamy. Everything we had was great including the adorable apple pancakes! read more

What a tiny gem of a coffee house with fresh, delicious food, baked goods, coffee, ambience, and lovely pride in community.

The coffee is dark and strong! I'm a coffee newbie so it took some time to get used to it but I like it. The real standout for me is the pastry counter. OMG you need to come in and admire it. Now I want to go there myself. It's lunch time and their menu is inventive and delicious. Try the cloudy eggs! read more

A very small cafe with a colorful atmosphere. The breakfast platter and quesadilla were very soft and fluffy. It is clear that all the food is made from scratch and with a lot of care too. The waitress mentioned that they made their bread in house, which is so much better than the regular premade stuff. The cappuccino was the frothiest ever and made exactly as it should. If you don't mind waiting, this is the spot for breakfast and coffee. read more

Nessa and her staff are friendly and accommodating. The pastries are all homemade and delicious!

This is one of my fave lil cafe where the cup of joe is richly smooth and every bite of food is a tasty morsel. The owners are quite friendly and always share their smiles with their customers. I stop here almost every visit to Cruces. read more

Nessas is such a cute cafe! They serve breakfast, lunch and have a great variety of freshly baked items for a quicker bite along with your standard or not so standard coffee! We stopped in for the first time and everyone in our group loved what they ordered. I had one of the daily specials - breakfast tacos with chorizo and potato with a side of green chile. It came with two tacos and the filling was the perfect amount, hearty but not overly so. Others had the BLT & E, mason jar salad and the bacon burrito. We also shared a blueberry and a snickers scone for the table, both which were delicious! The blueberry scone was slightly more moist than the snickers but both had great flavor and it was nice to have warm with butter. I also tried an iced coffee with lavender syrup and others tried the orange lavender iced tea. If you're dining in, the drinks come in large mason jars so you get quite a bit to drink. The space is pretty small with only maybe 10 tables, but they do also have an outside area in the back. It has some quirky decor that makes you feel at a true local homey place. Our server was awesome and made sure to answer all our questions, was quick to bring everything out for us and kept up with the water refills. I can't wait to get back here and try some of the other menu items like the quiche and blueberry grilled cheese! read more

This place is a hidden gem. I love their menu options (I highly dislike cluttered menus) which means they master what they make. Their food is cooked fresh and you can tell the don't cut corners. Both our food items were very generous portions and savory too. The place is cozy and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. They also have a board with their specials. I can't wait to come back and try more stuff. I also ordered an almond milk latte and it was marvelous! read more

Great small coffee shop that has a great atmosphere and vibe. Everyone I know has come to nessas and they all always come back and just a great place for that local coffee town spot to enjoy your Sunday or any day! Pastries where great and not crazily pricey. Clean and comfortable place I'll come back to. This is also a great place to check out the local music scene and it's location is so close to downtown than it's a given to come grab a coffee while I'm out. All of the food I have tried has been good and the service is always great. The kids house coffee is good and I love the temp it's served at. I will definitely be back and bring others to check it out. read more
