Best porch in town! As of writing this, we are back to eating outdoors only, so this is a "go to" spot. Fresh food made to order: Generous breakfast bowls; Love the chicken pesto salad; Gluten free bread available on the sandwiches; Locally roasted coffee And now they are open until 9:00pm with beer and wine. Locally owned. And if you need a place to stay, checkout their BNB, the historic Hotel Schmitz, upstairs! read more

Just across from courthouse this small cafe still has a nice menu with breakfast and lunch choices. Limited seating (3 booths, 4 seats at bar and some outside tables with a second dining room a with a few tables) Outside likely not much fun as it's right on the round about. Serves beer and wine if you choose with 11 beer taps with different offerings. Food came out quickly. (Burger and Fries) Great seasoning on both. Forgot the egg in my burger but still tasted excellent. With great food, shame not more table. Likely a food truck concept previously? Recommend if you can time it up! read more

I ordered the Ham and Cheese croissant. The best part of this croissant was that it was served warm, the cheese and that it had thick ham in it. The croissant was a bit too dry and a lot of seasoning on it. I also ordered the Carmel Monkey Coffee. This coffee is delicious if you are looking for something just a tad sweet and a nice little foam on top. The service was great and cute little place outdoors to enjoy the weather. A little too many flies but that's what you expect for being outside. read more

The food was great! Wr really enjoyed sitting out on the patio and the service was great too!

Just stopped in for some coffee before heading out of town. Service was good. The restaurant was clean. And the coffee tasted great.

This was a welcomed find when arriving in New Braunfels. We were going to check out the farmers market but wanted a bite to eat and a cup of coffee or two before going. There is indoor and outdoor seating at Crosswalk Coffeehouse & Cafe. There was a short line when we got there but they helped people quickly and we were able to find a table outside to sit at. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and my hubby got a cinnamon roll. The guy behind the counter didn't put it on a plate but instead put it in a paper bag, that was kinda weird since he knew were going to eat there...but ok, my husband didn't seem to mind. Food was good. Coffee was delicious. There was also a dispenser of cold water free to customer set up inside by the coffee fixings. There is street parking and possibly a small parking lot behind the building. Great spot! read more

Hubby and I ordered Breakfast Bowls and Lattes, and were pleased with both. You get plenty of food in the Breakfast Bowl. We ordered additional items, but didn't need them. I would have preferred bacon strips to the crumbled bacon product used. The coffee was nice - hot and flavorful. The atmosphere is cozy, and even on a cold day, we were comfortable with the temperature inside. However, there is only one bathroom, so you may have to wait. We will definitely go back when we're in New Braunfels. I think you should try it! read more

Walked in with my sister and our two newborns . We were instantly greeted and told us we could sit at the booth. We originally wanted breakfast because my sister loves the lox but we missed it by 10 minutes. We settled on the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and OMG it was so good. I'm still thinking about this sandwich and it's already been two weeks. The bread is soft, the chicken is perfectly fried and it was the perfect amount of messy. The chips on the side was also very good. I really enjoy the inside and outside seating. The restaurant was clean and restroom had a changing table which is a plus being a new mom. read more

Great food and service! The grits and burger were our personal favorites. Great place to bring your dog and sit outside to enjoy the weather! read more

Loved our cappuccinos and Cuban sandwich. Like the outside tables. I would have loved the cappuccino to have been served in a actual cappuccino cup, instead of paper when dining in. Great for breakfast and lunch not sure about dinner. I think the dinner menu could be a little better dinner options but I'll give it a try. read more

Cute place for a coffee or beer. There's a nice selection of kolaches and baked goods. Outdoor seating is great in the summer. Recommended.

I have gotten the breakfast tacos twice and they cook to perfection! I get potato, black bean, grilled onion, & peppers. Delicious! For me it's always a debate on getting drip coffee or americanos, but their house coffee is pretty darn good, so I still haven't even tried the americanos. The staff is always friendly and helpful. read more

The NOLA was so good. There is a good amount of outdoor seating. I would totally come here again. read more

I love going to crosswalk for breakfast, brunch and lunch. Always great tasting food and drinks. The servers are friendly and on top of everything. Also sitting outside is very relaxing and a great way to enjoy a beautiful day! read more

Best patio for coffee in town. Great food and drinks...wish the staff was friendlier. That's all this place is missing. 2 out of 6 will actually greet you and appreciate you stopping by. There are a couple of servers that seem to hate working there or should not be working in the service industry. They glare while watching you sign the tip on the tablet(I always feel compelled to tip well, but they don't deserve it). On the Grind, Gruene coffee Haus, and Kora Kora have the best, friendliest, most welcoming servers. Crosswalk should take notes. read more

I used to really like this place but the QR code system is not it. We went in for brunch today, and ordered coffee, a breakfast sandwich meal and a croissant (all through the QR code system on the phone.) We sat down at a table on the patio. So my husband's meal comes out before our coffee. Okay, whatever. We wait a bit, still no coffee, he gets hungry and starts eating. He's halfway done by the time we get drinks and I still don't have my food. An employee asks if everything came out okay, and I tell him we didn't get my food yet, he says he will check on it and come back. He does not return and I wait about 10 more minutes, during which husband has finished his food. At this point I get up and go inside to tell a different employee that I'm still waiting on my food, which he then makes and give me at the cashier stand. Alright kinda annoying, but no biggie. So then I'm trying to close my tab, and the phone system is not working whatsoever. A 3rd employee walks by now, asks if we are doing okay, so I tell him the QR code system isn't allowing us to close our check. He says the system must be down, and he will come back with our check. We wait a while, and he does not come back. I eventually get up and go inside to the cashier stand for the 2nd time, and wait for another 10 minutes in the to-go line just to pay my bill and leave. Look I like this place but I don't think I'll be returning until this system has been worked out. I kept thinking how nice it would be if there were just 1 employee who knew what we ordered and would continually come back to our table to check if we needed something, like say, a server. But the atmosphere is nice and the food and coffee were good. read more

What a wonderful place. I've lived in and near New Braunfels my whole life and I know this place has been here awhile. My first time here was today. I hosted a geocaching event here for a few nerds and we were well taken care of. David was highly attentive to us. Everyone got what they needed. All the customers on the patio were well-served as well. It was great to be outside this morning. We will be back. read more

This was an amazing delight. We had the bagel and lox, along with the Cuban sandwich with a side of tomato soup. I would swear the taste of the Cuban sandwich felt every bit authentic. The lox tasted fresh as can possibly be. I would totally come back from CA for this. read more

Had the pleasure of eating here yesterday with my family. Ordered the veggie breakfast sandwich and loved it. The ambience is great and the service was wonderful. Our server was so patient with the kiddos we had in tow. I would love to go back and enjoy their patio when it isn't triple digit weather. read more

We sat there for at least 30 minutes without being approached. My husband went inside to try to order at least water and they sat him back down. We waited another 10 minutes and they still didn't even bring us water. We decided to just leave! Very disappointed in their service! read more

Crosswalk Coffeehouse has the best coffee in town; however, their employees are very rude & not customer friendly. I believe it is due to the owners who exhibit this characteristic and pass it on to their employees. Small businesses must learn how to meet & exceed customer expectations. Four of us just walked out after we were treated rudely. There is a coffee shop immediately next door (New Braunfels Coffee) where we were welcomed. read more

If I could give this establishment negative stars I would. Today on Christmas Eve, me and three of my favorite girlfriends met here for coffee, mimosas and food. For an hour we laughed, cut up and were really enjoying each others company. We were asked by an employee, Steve, to keep it down and be quiet. He then proceeded to tell us that our laugher was keeping customers from coming inside. We were the only customers sitting inside. We were mortified and extremely saddened by his comments. As we headed outside to leave he followed us and told us we were banned for life from ever coming back. As a local business owner, he apparently doesn't know that laughter and fun brings business. read more

It's not everyday you get a sausage kolache with an actual sausage in it rather than a skinny hot dog. You could taste the bread, sausage and jalapeños. These were amazing and Im pretty sure I need a dozen or more to keep in the freezer at home. read more

Cozy and quaint. Delicious food as well. Fast and friendly service. I had about 1 hour to kill and was hungry. I had also just gotten back from a European vacation as well so I had a hankerin' for an Americano (espresso with added water) and a croissant. Parking was a little tricky but not too bad. They don't have a parking lot (that I'm aware of) so I just found street parking less than a minute away. Walked in and it has an excellent rustic feel. Coffee house music playing and nice booths, tables and chairs. You order at the counter and they bring you your order where you sit. My Americano had a little too much water for me; although this might be due to me having gotten used to these in Europe. I ordered a ham, egg and cheese with mayo (no tomato!) croissant. They toasted the croissant a little too much (again my humble opinion) but holy cow the taste of that sandwich was incredible! The mayo they use was super good (homemade maybe?) and the ham was thick and tasty as well. I for sure say kudos on quality ingredients! I would love to come back again with the kiddos and have a nice breakfast or lunch here. read more

Cute coffee shop right off the "circle" in downtown New Braunfels. Super cozy inside and large patio as well. The staff is super friendly and they have a lot of fresh baked goodies (scones, quiche, muffins, tacos, breakfast sandwiches, etc.). My husband and and I each got a coffee, split a cinnamon roll (YUM!) and each built our own breakfast sandwich. Definitely hit the spot and wasn't too crowded at 8a during the week. read more

Had wine and a nice patio BUT seriously absent. Once we got the bottle of wine which took probably longer than it should take considering there was no one there was pretty ridiculous. Then no check up. Woild you like anything else?? Water?? Went in to ask if they offered cheese for sale ?? No one at counter. No bell at counter to call anyone. 5 min waiting just left. Pretty lame read more

I love this place! I come here frequently after work and sit on the patio to study. I've had many versions of lattes, never once disappointed. They have many flavors and add ins to choose from. The most recent one I tried was a blackberry vanilla latte, and I was surprised at how much I liked it. I also regularly get their green smoothie! The staff works hard and have always been nothing but friendly and prompt! Highly recommend!! read more

We love going to crosswalk! The patio is amazing and the food is delicious. The family that owns it is the sweetest. Highly recommend!

Good breakfast sandwiches. Good coffee. Nice staff. Very small dining room. Great location. Breakfast Croissants

I came here for lunch while in town on a Thursday afternoon. The place is located in a fantastic old building on the downtown roundabout next to, and not to be confused with, another coffee shop on the corner. There is a deli-type menu, with sandwiches and soups and salads, or a combo of all. You order at the counter then have a seat and someone brings you your food, pretty quickly I might add. The food was fresh and delicious. I ordered the hot veggie sandwich that came on a wheat sub bun or pita bread. The veggies were fresh and delicious and there was a generous amount of them. The sandwich also came with a side of Miss Vicks chips, my choice flavor. Prices are reasonable, I think my sandwich was in the mid-range, $8. There's outside seating available, but not much, and the interior is pretty small. Great ambiance and I would come here again. read more

Such a beautiful place to plug in or unplug. Nestled in the heart of downtown New Braunfels, this place has church-pew booths, historic rock-walls, gets great early morning light filtering in from the patio, fresh flowers on the table and is incredible for people watching. There are outlets and sub ports at the interior tables and the best array of deli foods and coffees. There is even wind and mimosas on the menu. read more

Good breakfast. Cumbersome non-human orderingfor outside table service. All done by QR code. Ordering coffee you have option to leave room for cream. No place to say what you actually want in the coffee Can order quiche. Nothing, including signage, like a Daily Specials chalk boar perhaps tells you what kind of quiche is available. Also, wasn't sure the order was received. So had to make a couple of trips inside to figure it out. You add the cream and sweetner yourself. So they bring you coffee you get up and bring it back inside. (Third trip in side- the trips you beside to get answers to questions. ) then had to go back inside to get silverware they forgot to bring us and tell them they forgot part of our order. The scrambled egg bowl and bagel were delicious!! Or this would be a 3 star review. read more

They used to be great, but it's been a year or more since they changed their system, changed their menu, changed the way they serve people. It was a place with great food, drinks, and people, but now it feels unwelcoming and streamlined (and not streamlined in a good or useful way). In the past I recommended this place to everyone, but now I steer them somewhere else if they want to enjoy brunch, coffee, or a cafe meal. read more

My friends and I stayed in New Braunfels for the weekend and this was the first place we've been to that we are happy with. On our last day. We were walking by and the delicious aroma wafting outside drew us in. Everyone who took their first bite said "Omg this tastes so good!" read more
