I really liked this little place. The sandwich was not particularly memorable but I definitely loved the CBD infused espresso. Also, had a great time with fellow patrons and their dogs. Great spot in a very cute, albeit windy, town. read more

This is always my favorite place to go when I come to Nederland every year!!! The coffee is great, the food tastes awesome ESPECIALLY the quiche, and the workers are always pleasant. I highly recommend coming here if you want a 5 star experience. read more

I've been meaning to write this review all week!! Sorry for the delay guys, but more importantly THANK YOU!! Thank you to the new moon bakery for having wonderful delicious and yummy treats for my family and I stopping by on vacation! And more importantly thank you to the new moon staff for going above and beyond during the busy rush! We came in last Saturday and it was booming! We didn't have to wait long though and the counter staff was on point! I've worked in a similar establishment and I was very impressed with how quick yet personable and friendly they were with us and everyone else walking in, especially the short haired chick making our drinks! My parents got a couple sweet nibbles and we all got fun drinks of different sorts and they were all spectacular. I ordered the quiche and my boyfriend ordered the tomato pesto croissant and honestly I wish I could come back everyday to enjoy the delicious food and treats and hang out in this fun place filled with great energy! Can't wait to come back!! Thanks so much new moon! read more

Such a cute little cafe. I sheepishly came in just before closing, and Alana and Julia welcomed me to stay! The Wild Turkey sandwich Alana recommended was fresh and full of flavor. For someone returning to the area to visit after over ten years, I can say that I found the perfect spot. Keep up the good work folks! read more

Got a fruit bar and maya chai tea by recommendation of Ben, delicious! Gotta love finding little coffee shops in the Rocky Mountains. Adorable outdoor patio perfect for people watching with a beautiful view! read more

Hands down one of the bakeries I've been to! Goats cheese and lavender croissant, yes please. Traveled three hours for it last month!

Always delicious. And service with a smile. A staple for us in Ned! Definitely recommend.

I stopped in for a post-trail run snack. The iced soy chai hit the spot. Not too sweet and a nice, not-too-strong, spicy flavor. The blueberry chocolate scone was really delicious. The owner is super nice and was also working the counter. I forgot to ask if she was also the baker extraordinaire... Great location right beside the visitor center. read more

I have NEVER had a more perfect chai latte. EVER. I am gluten-intolerant and this was a paradise to me! I usually opt out for soy instead of milk but even too much soy bothers me. Well...New Moon Bakery has RICE MILK as well! I had the most divine rice chai. It was really spicy but that makes it the most authentic chai I've ever had. None of that super sweet chalky powder taste. Okay, they also had these scrumptious little gluten-free cookie things with Giradelli chocolate in them! Wow. Try the peanut butter one. Nederland isn't a place I pass by all the time but this place will definitely keep bringing me back. read more

From now on this will be my go-to spot to satisfy my sweet tooth in Ned. Unfortunately they were having some difficulties in the kitchen and were not making crepes when I visited, which I wanted to try since others had raved about them, so I opted for a slice of pecan coffee cake, a chocolate/coconut macaroon, and a Leslie chai instead. The coffee cake was RIDICULOUSLY fluffy and delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness to pair with a coffee or tea in the morning, and the macaroon was also to die for. The Leslie chai was a blend of their "spicy" and "sweet" chai varieties and was the perfect blend of each. The only seriously negative thing about this place is that there isn't any air conditioning, so if it's a warm day the inside might feel a bit like a sauna. They do have a nice patio with adequate shade, though; if it's already full you might consider getting your treats to-go so you can find a nice spot to eat somewhere else. read more

This is one of the best bakeries I've eaten at. The croissants are light and buttery. The muffins are rich and satisfying. The crepes are delicious. The cookies and cakes are scrumptious! The coffee and espresso is divine. Also, this place is really clean, even during mud season. This is a small place, so Saturday and Sunday morning, be prepared to be bumped a little. It probably seats 20 inside, and on nice days, 10 on the patio. Monique and Peter and their staff are awesome, and obviously care about their customers and product. This place is a true gem in Nederland! Did I mention they have free WiFI? read more

This little gem is truly the heart and pulse of Ned...while you are waiting for the best damned coffee on the mountain... You will see all the locals stop in, trading yarns about mountain lions, gold mines and new babies being born... Pastries and croissants are to die for, and the smile and warm greetiing you get from the Sparkle Girl behind the counter will warm your heart. Great place!!!oh and BTW my new favorite thing...Bahkti CHAI OMG the best ever!!! read more

Great patio, great coffee, and great food! One of the best places to hang out in Nederland! read more

New Moon has had a quadruple upgrade in the quality and variety of their exceptional baked goods, since our last purchase two years ago. This morning's plain croissant was chewy, buttery, and positively memorable, especially when bought early in the day and eaten slowly with almond butter and cheese. I always test croissants, and they always disappoint. Next time I want one (tomorrow!), if I am within an hour of New Moon I will head up to Ned. Can't rave enough about the place, service, and selection this morning. [For reference, the *everything* cookie I had there in the past was the worst cookie I ever ate, which makes this upgrade so much sweeter.] My wife agrees about the croissant, but she didn't like the blueberry chocolate scone as much as I did, probably because she ate it straight without the aforementioned almond butter and cheese. It was a ripe gooey cheese from Alfalfa's down the hill in Boulder: cabra di cana, or something similar. She liked her Amante coffee Americano. Nederland is a funky little town in a great location. Check out the three-loop short Mud Lake hike up the road at Caribou Ranch Open Space. UPDATE July 7, 2014 Plain croissant was more traditional this morning: flaky and not so buttery. Almond croissant was the best thing we ate today. Service continues to be very good. Coffee from Amante remains excellent. Patio is delightful in early day Ned sun. read more

Casual vibe can't overcome bad food. I was on a long bike ride, stopped in here utterly starving, and ordered up the pesto-tomato croissant. It was one of the nastiest things I've ever had. Despite it's veneer of crunchy goodness, it was just a mushy mess of white dough with a shortening aftertaste and mouthfeel. I ate it (I was starving, after all), but later had to cut the aftertaste with a protein bar, Low quality ingredients, poor execution. I should have starved. EDIT: I really appreciate the response from the bakery and I'm willing to give it anothe try next time through. One bad experience doesn't sink the whole ship. read more

John and I stopped here this morning cause yelp reviews sounded good. They have the best espresso here and pastries! They taste as good as they look! You won't be disappointed. read more

Really good pastries. The service is usually very slow and subpar. Their brewed coffee taste like gas station coffee, very disappointing. I'm not sure that the people who work there actually drink coffee. They have interesting drink choices for lattes and their breakfast bagels, although inconsistently made, are really tasty some days. They usually have 3 people working and it seems poorly managed due to the fact that they do not usually work together to get drinks made in a timely fashion. I waited 5 minutes while someone forgot to make a latte for me and watched a guy walking back and forth in the background doing literally nothing during that time. read more

Every time we visit Nederland I make a stop at this fantastic coffee shop. Delicious hand baked pastries and cookies. The Mountain Cookie is the best (GF, coconut, cranberries, nuts), love these cookies. They also have a great listing of special coffees, kombucha and chai teas. Place is small so seating is tough, but well worth the visit! read more

Best vegan selections anywhere in Ned. Friendly, helpful, local staff, and various daily specials. Always a go-to for vegans. read more

We were visiting from CT and my brother who lives in Ned turned us on to New Moon. The entire week we were there we ate their pastries...they're so, so delicious! Most definitely recommend if you happen to find yourself in the area to stop in; it's a fantastic bakery and coffee shop. Can't wait to go back! read more

hey just once guys when i order a breakfast sandwich.. you know the .60cent bagel with the .20cent egg and .80cent slice of bacon. you know all this for $7.00 bucks you fleece me with. but anyway you think just once. truly just once just once just once just 1 freakin time ~ can i get with more bacon then huge unnecessary tomato slice. thanks peter.. read more

I visit this place every year I come back into town with being a fan of New Moon until this experience. Not sure if the person I had making my coffee was new, but longstory short both of the drinks I ordered tasted like hot sink water with whip cream on top. Very tastless for being a vanilla mocha. Shop was closing up and knew that was my first mistake of feeling rushed out with $10 and half dollars worth for 2 coffees. Make sure you taste the coffee before tipping their jar. read more

Stopped on the way to Estes and got drinks. Hot chocolate for the kids was tasty, but the lattes...oh my goodness...coffee nirvana! The best latte I have had in a long time. Creamy and delicious, milk foamed to perfection, correct temperature for immediate drinking. Hallelujah, this ain't no Starbucks! Didn't get anything to eat, but the selection of pastries in the case looked tasty. Definitely stop here for your caffeine needs! read more

I moved to Nederland 3 years ago when New Moon was under different ownership. The pastries tasted stale and the service was horrible. I don't need to pay someone to be rude to me (I'm from NY for C-sakes!). I gave the cafe another try when I heard it was under new ownership. Thank god I did. The apple turnover is to DIE for and the coffee is perfect. The atmosphere is inviting and my gluten free friends love the options. Need I say more? read more

Great coffee, amazingly delicious quiche and pecan monkey bread. Actually, everything looked fantastic - it was hard to choose!

Such a cute and yummy little cafe! We stopped here after a long day of snowshoe hiking and were so excited for some warm drinks! I got the white mocha and the other two got hot chocolate. All three drinks were delicious! We also tried the coffee cake, tomato pesto croissant, and veggie quiche! All were super delicious! We went a little before closing time and they ended up giving us 2 cookies and a drip coffee on the house before leaving! The service was great - super fast! The workers were so nice! Definitely a great place to stop and grab a quick bite or sit and spend a cozy afternoon with coffee! read more

Great find! Excellent pastries and very fine coffee. Great service. Loved my macchiato, wish they had better cups. Nice people.

Stopped in after our hiking plans fell through. Had a peppermint patty latte and a chocolate covered macaroon. Both were so yummy! Good service and plenty of seating! I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Nederland. read more

Love this place! Of all the coffee shops in nederland, go to this one. I live in the area and they always have amazing homemade quiches and other sweet goodies as well. Best coffee in town hands down and you will always get the best service they are wonderful here. read more

I love this place so much I want to give it one star so the lines don't get longer. Really though, this place is worth driving to from anywhere. Their staff is always sweet, their croissants are the stuff dreams are made of, and the coffee is awesome. The lines can be long but the wait usually is not. read more

Nice terrace in the sun. Wide variety in sweets and sanwiches. Good WiFi. Friendly staff. But, I'm sorry....at best mediocre coffee.

Originally from Florida and a huge coffee fanatic. I ordered their sweet and spicy chai latte with the 1st street burrito. It did take the burrito a little bit longer than I expected but nonetheless well worth the wait. Staff were very friendly and provided awesome customer service. The vibes at this little joint were surreal read more

Best latte! They make all of their pastries and food in house. I had a chocolate covered macaroon and a cookie, they were to die for!!

My friend Kathy bought me a gluten-free chocolate covered chocolate chocolate chip cookie here that was to DIE for. Delicious!

I guess it will tell you how much I love this place when I tell you that my husband works up in Nederland on Thursdays and if he wants to make me happy he stops and picks up a Heavenly Bar. It's kind of like a 7 layer bar but with more coconut and nuts and less chocolate and well...it's heavenly! I've also had a latte on site (too bad he can't bring me one of those home) and they are fantastic as well. The chocolate croissants are also fantastic. As far as the place itself, it's cute, cool, trendy and folksy all at once. I love checking out the new original artwork that's on the walls when we go up there. read more

I have to agree with the other Yelpers- I wanted to try the whole pastry case as I watched new goodies come out of the oven. But, I went for the gluten free carrot cake. I cannot resist cream cheese icing on carrot cake! It was quite dense and heavy, and the woman who helped me warned that I would have to take some home. I smirked a little when she said that because I killed the darn thing and saved on styrofoam to-go containers. :-) I personally don't care for nuts on carrot cake, but the flavor was excellent, not too sweet (except the frosting) and full of strips of fresh carrots. Dad had a short shot of espresso, and it smelled great too. read more

The very best almond croissants anywhere! Soy cappuccino, espressos, and perfect coffee made the way you want it. They also have delicious veggie and non-veggie quiches and a good assortment of gluten-free breads and pastries. Staff is friendly and the atmosphere invites locals and tourists to hangout and have good conversations. This is my favorite coffee place in Ned. read more

Best place to grab a snack in Nederland -- Coffee is excellent - Food is kind of mediocre. The sandwiches use processed meat. Desserts vary in quality but macaroons are tasty. Service is friendly but slow read more

Small cafe with limited indoor seating and a large outdoor front porch sitting area. Great environment to eat brunch. The coffee was good, not mind blowing, but good. They offer fantastic soft chocolate chip cookies as well as quiches, bagels, sandwiches, wraps... the service was friendly and efficient. This is "an order and you will be called up to get your food place", not table service. I only ate here once, but get the feeling that they do everything well and keep the food fresh here. read more

Passing through Nederland, CO this afternoon we tried this little bakery/bistro. Best panini I've ever had! The staff was friendly and the food was amazing. My dad also enjoyed his sandwich! If you're in Nederland STOP HERE!!! read more
