Cafe Luna feels like family. This is a gem in Longmont with quality coffee, home baked goods and such a lovely outdoor patio.

Cute restaurant in an old house with patio and porch seating and air conditioned indoor dining room. Coffee, soft drinks, breakfast sandwiches, bagel with lox and capers, pastries and sandwiches. Pleasant environment. Counter service. read more

If there is a better coffee shop in Longmont I don't know it yet. And I've been looking. This is a classic place to hang in the sun, study, work, chat with old friends. It's an old house converted into coffee shop and has a ton of outside seating. In a sea of corporate barf this is a welcome old school mom and pop shop that you don't see much anymore. The pastries are INSANELY good and coffee great too. I assume the tea is good, but I don't do tea. If you're 1 staring this place, eat a shitsammich. You have no taste or care for things that have charm and soul. Go to Starbucks you butt nugget. read more

Breakfast sandwich was very good. Very nostalgic atmosphere. Maybe it's the smell of baked goods, but reminds me of grandma's house even though this was not how my grandma's house was . Could not resist the amazing cinnamon rolls! The service was friendly and I would recommend stopping by if you are in the area. read more

Great food, coffee, fast + friendly service, and the atmosphere is sweet and cozy, in an old house like structure.

Best breakfast sandwiches in town. Also dig their coffee! Friendly service in a funky, comfortable atmosphere!

First, I do not post reviews as I am largely a very easy to please person. This experience is beyond acceptable to me. I was working on my computer and received a return phone call from the Police Department as I had my wallet stolen from me 3 weeks ago and my GPS tracker was showing a location. I took this phone call went outside for the first portion of the call and only came back inside to write down the officers phone number. At which point another patron walked in and berated me for having a phone call while in the coffee shop. This same patron then had a conversation with the owner that was as loud if not louder than the conversation I had. Another patron then had a phone conversation to which the person that berated me did not provide any judgement to him. I confronted the person with the hypocrisy of his criticisms to which the owner and him again berated me. Lesson here, you do not know what is going on in someones life. Do not post judgement so quickly. I am trying to consider this same lesson when passing judgement on these two. read more

A lot of these reviews seem to be about the service and how they were not acknowledged upon arrival. When I went in, it was a 1 in/1 out system so I had to wait outside which was perfectly fine. When I walked in there, the one gentleman who was running the whole shop was assisting someone else, since there are two different counters to wait at. I understood that the single man behind the counter was busy so it did not acknowledge me because they were helping another customer - that is completely fine. Then when the man got done and came to help me he was pleasant and the everything bagel and my latte was fantastic. It makes me sad to see that a lot of these reviews about the customer service are negative. It's a small shop and the man seemed like he was overwhelmed but was doing his best to keep every order coming out just right. Please be patient with small businesses during this time - they may not be able to afford more help and they're overworked and underpaid. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

Absolutely terrible on every level. Microwaved eggs in the burrito. Terrible service. Run down furniture. The drinks are terrible and make you go, "is there even coffee in this?" It's not cute anymore that this place is run down. Fix it up already. read more

Gr8 cuppa joe but no bathroom available? Please... Just be like any other coffee shop and let people go at their own risk. Put sanitary clean up your junk stuff out and show a bit of courtesy. Very puzzling at this point in the pandemic to not realize that everyone is responsible for their own well being. read more

Great place. Good coffee and a great breakfast. Cinnamon Rolls that smell like heaven or my mother's kitchen. Highly recommend

Dropped by today with some friends. I'd never heard of this place before, but I always like discovering new locations and trying them out. The coffee shop itself is nice. There's a room off to the side with a few bookshelves stuffed to the brim with a lot of great titles. The wooden floor, the ambiance, and the furniture give it a very nice, homely feel. Seating area in the front of the building is also great - it's not on a busy street, so you'll still be able to enjoy conversation while sitting outside and enjoying any nice weather. And spying on people walking by. The reason my rating for this place is low is because of two things - the coffee and the customer service. They use Ozo beans, which are delicious, but for whatever reason their latte just didn't taste as good as a latte straight from Ozo's coffee shop. Artisanal coffee shops are a dime a dozen now. It's hard for me to justify dropping by this place again when they use Ozo's beans but then can't match the drink quality. I don't mind driving 5 minutes to an actual Ozo shop nearby. On top of this, the baristas were grumpy. Hardly mustered a smile, didn't bother really making conversation or saying hi. It's like having customers was an annoyance. I felt like I was a nuisance or something with the way they were looking at me. Sorry for buying your coffee? Just grump. And the worst part was how rough and careless they were with the drinks. They didn't rinse their espresso shot glasses between pulls (eh?), they didn't rinse their portafilter or portafilter baskets between drinks (how old is the residue I'm drinking?), and they were setting cups and glasses down harshly like it was my fault they were slammed and understaffed. I thought my latte was going to spill over the edges with how hard the barista set down my drink. Halfway through the lunch-hour rush, one of them just turned to the other and said, "I need to head out. Are you ok?" and the other barista just didn't respond. No, apparently she wasn't okay. Now, I don't know if something happened. I don't know if they had had a fight, or if there are problems between baristas, or if they're dealing with things in their personal lives. I don't know. But I'm not supposed to know. It's none of my business. Customer service is a hard job because you have to deal with customers and keep your own personal problems at bay, and I really empathize. But I was not a rude customer. I just wanted a latte, not a heaping dose of feelings of worthlessness as well. If you're walking around town and want coffee then there are other great shops within walking distance, or if you don't mind driving, you could just drive straight to an actual Ozo coffee shop at the Village at the Peaks shopping center. Straight from the source, and the people there actually give the impression that they appreciate their customers. read more

I really like this place! The house is cute and eclectic, the outdoor seating is nice and I like their coffee. They even have some yummy gluten free options. AND their prices are reasonable! So many other local coffee places have raised their prices so much that I loved to pay a decent price for my great coffee. read more

Cafe Luna has been my favorite place to grab a chai and homemade muffin or breakfast sandwich for at least 25 years! Whenever I am home visiting Mom, it's always one of my first (and last) stops! read more

It's a bummer to give this place such a low rating. It has so much potential. But the lack of civility in behavior by the owner or manger...who ever angry rude man is, he made it really uncomfortable to enjoy all the positives the place had to offer. He was clearly frustrated. Kept slamming a door by the seats we had chosen. Then pulled us in to his concern about a young man who was possibly homeless, mentally unstable and potentially abusing drugs. By no means would I be happy to have the individual on my property but he had no compassion for the poor soul and kept making accusations and judgements. He even pulled us in by asking our opinion and then seemed super irritated and pissed when I mentioned that the individual may be suffering from some mental health challenges. He continued to bring things in and out by the area we sat at and slammed the door intentionally and with great aggression. Super super unprofessional! We moved seats. The place was so cool. The other patrons awesome. The baristas kind. They sell used books. It's just exactly the business I like to support but I can't support behavior like that unfortunately. I go to these places to relax, not feel other people's inability to control their conduct. read more

Staff rushed & unfriendly. Steady, but not that busy. No more cinnamon rolls at 9:30 am. read more

As previous reviews have stated the service was terrible. There were 3 people working on a Saturday morning and each drink came out wrong and the food was a long time in coming. My friends and I went there for a coffee morning and it was 30 mins from queuing up to finally getting my coffee. Needless to say it will be the last time we meet there! read more

We were a walk in order. We waited a solid 8 minutes without even being acknowledged. Legit the barista walked right past us. As someone who runs a business myself, a simple hello or be right with you would have gone a long way. Simple social niceties go along way in a service industry. read more

Caffe Luna (it actually has two "f"s) makes its home in an adorable Victorian right on the edge of Roosevelt Park. It has a fabulous wrap-around porch which is just perfect for sitting, socializing, and sipping your coffee. It is a very relaxed cozy environment. The house itself is well-worn, which is a great departure from the sleek and shiny Starbuck's and wannabe Starbuck's that are fast encroaching upon Longmont. My husband and I love to come here for breakfast on the weekend, and the owners, Mark and Josine, are just the nicest people. They remember what we always order and are shocked when we actually order something else! This is the epitome of a neighborhood cafe, where people know each others' names and are very friendly. The coffee is good -- better than nearby Ziggi's in our opinion -- and they have lots of pastries, pies, homemade breakfast options, burritos... it goes on -- it is actually a random mishmash of offerings. We usually get the ham and cheese croissant which is only $2.50. They have a great lox & bagel plate which is only $4.50. They have a number of sandwich options as well. Word of warning - they do NOT take credit cards! read more

When I saw the negative reviews about the service at Cafe Luna, I almost picked a different coffee shop to spend some much-needed me-time. However, my experience couldn't have been better. The young lady working at the counter and making the coffee was so cheerful and engaging. She seemed to sincerely enjoy talking with the customers. I ordered Chai, which is a new drink for me, and she happily answered all my questions to help me choose which kind to get. I was pleased with my selection, which was served in a pint glass. I also picked up a macaroon with chocolate drizzle on top. I asked and she confirmed that it was gluten-free. I saved it for later and right away wished I had gotten two. Soooooo yummy! I will be back just for another one of those. My only, minor complaint is about the seating. Chairs inside were all pretty much the same and not all that comfortable. Not a huge deal for my short stay but this would have been a big disappointment had I needed to spend a few hours there. Otherwise, I had a very pleasant experience at Cafe Luna. read more

Cafe Luna - a woman holding a cup of coffee and a pastry - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

I needed a mocha before I went to work this morning, and I hadn't been here for a while due to life changes. The guy at the counter today just ignored me for the first three minutes I was standing in front of him wanting to make my order. He finally asked me for my order, and then he gave me a lukewarm mocha with Redi-Whip on top... and the lady taking the money shorted me a dollar (maybe by accident since I gave them a ten and the exact change?); but I hadn't had my coffee yet, so didn't realize it until after I was at work... *shrugs* A small price to pay to know that I don't want to go back, I guess. It used to be a wonderful place with owners who made fresh muffins every morning, and were especially careful with their drinks, but no longer. read more

Super, awesome cinnamon rolls. Very much a family business. Nice people with good food and great coffee.

Love this little coffee spot, Stopped in to get out of the rain while I was waiting for the bus and the the barista was super friendly and we chatted a little while I enjoyed my coffee and waited for my bus. Love that they have wifi and its a cozy spot to relax and unwind. Great selection. (4/25) read more

Three deep in line, creeper standing off to the side behind me. I wait for my turn, get to the counter and creeper jumps in front of me to order. Broseph pouring coffee makes eye contact with me, knows what happened and goes ahead and takes the creepers order. I leave and walk down the street to Ziggi's who makes a better Americano anyway... Customer service, bro... read more

A bit dirty, it still holds some charm of a local coffee shop. Service is decent and you get a little of the snobbish barista feel, if that's your thing. Overall, I'm just a little confused by this spot. The baked goods are surprisingly tasty - even their biscotti hold a perfect combination of firmness with a little moisture. I ordered a cappuccino, which was incidentally listed as their special..."Italian style." Call me a snob, but it was dangerously close to a latte. Still good, but gents...there is a difference. :/ read more

In short: great food. Not so good coffee. Great environment. Fantastic Roosevelt Park across the street. Also across the street: a bus stop that connects you with Boulder, Denver, and cities to the North. Big old trees offer shade and comfort. I'm a fan of Caffe Luna. I found Caffe Luna when I was down and out in the middle of the summer. The trees offered shade, and it was the most comfortable place around to get an internet connection and work for hours on improving my situation. I made friends there. I met fellow artists who could or would no longer tolerate the evolving yuppiedom and loss of spirit in Boulder. I made friends. I liked the place so much, I found an apartment nearby from which I am writing this review. Longmont has fallen on hard times; hard hit by the recession. Sadly, this has affected Caffee Luna, with reduced staff and reduced hours. The internet is so spammed by nearby neighbors looking for a free connection, it is sometimes hard to connect with it. Eggs are cooked using the steamer in the Expresso machine. This creates a lot of work (cleaning) for the staff, but it cooks the eggs in a delicious, unique way. The coffee is, sadly, not so great. Two carafes, one decaf, one regular, contain coffee that is usually more than 20 minutes old except perhaps during rush hour in the morning. The coffee at the 7-Eleven down the street is better. But who wants to consume coffee there? Nothing is perfect. As other reviewers have mentioned, there is an awesome selection of books. No shortage of interesting reading material. read more

We went for the first time and probably the last. I love the outdoor space. The service is painful, it's two people running it and while the woman up front is very polite, she did not acknowledge the wait or the time of anyone behind us. Just completely walked around, right past everyone, to the back, to the outside, and only acknowledged us after about a 7 minute front-of-the-line wait (we waited longer than this, total). The food was okay. Coffee was not great. Doughnut cost $3. read more

I love going out for coffee for a weekly chess game, and support only our locally owned coffee shops in Longmont. I've been going to Caffe Luna for years, but I believe today was the last visit. A shame, but I've been so disappointed the last several times this year. First, only one employee from 9:00 - 11:00, with 8 people in line at 9. Poor guy, I can't blame him, but a bit overwhelmed. Although there is a "Masks Required" sign on the front door, none of the other 6 customers was wearing one. The barista was wearing his, as I would expect from a food service establishment. I know that employees are hesitant to enforce mask rules in fear of belligerent customers, but shouldn't health department guidelines be enforced? They only have one kind of regular coffee, which I found bitter and acidic. That was enough to keep me from coming back. I really expect a choice between at least a couple brew types, which they have everywhere else. They do not offer refills, so you need to pay full price for additional cups. I don't know of anyone else in Longmont that does this. Maybe Starbucks, but I don't go there. The last straw, the one bathroom is off limits to customers. That's not good after drinking coffee, and probably not in accordance with health regulations. I understand how COVID has severely impacted small businesses, but there are a lot of choices here in Longmont for locally owned coffee shops. I only wish the owner(s) the best of luck, and mean no ill will, but I hope their business model will evolve in a positive direction. read more

Well...I live near here and have gone to Caffe Luna for a long time. Before it changed owners the place was very slow and not real friendly, but we went there anyway to support a local business within walking distance. They used to only take cash, so the fact that they now take credit cards is a plus, and the new owners have cleaned the place up and given it a fresh coat of paint. However, a fresh coat of paint cannot cover up the fact that I recently bought a strawberry chocolate chip muffin and after leaving and being blocks away, noticed that all over the muffin where it had touched the sides of the pan, there were little white hairs.....LOTS of them. I had been feeding this to my 2 year old daughter!!! I was and am mortified and will not be going back over to Caffe Luna. I have always been skeptical of their attention to cleanliness, but this is over the top. The health department should pop in on them. read more

There is something really off about the muffins. I couldn't even take a second bite they are super dry and have a weird flavor.

It's beautiful - nice big space, books all around, just a very chill spot. But! Come when the owner isn't there - he is loud and bangs shit around, blasts music and sings along at the top of his voice, and one can't hear, think or enjoy the coffee or muffin. It's like having a loud, drunk uncle at a party. Literally, right now, he is shouting so the whole place can hear. SHHHHHHHHHHHH PLEASE lol...I'm going to Ziggis. Sorry! read more

Coffee is fine, good pastries on hand, and I just love a coffee shop that has old mismatched furniture... and the porch! Very nice porch. But here's the thing: whoever buys books for this place has excellent taste (it's a used bookstore too). Warren Commission report? Check. Philosophical books on architecture? Yes. Fiction, nonfiction, it's a bibliophile's gluetrap... I never leave without buying something. Be warned before you start perusing the shelves: they have what you didn't even know you wanted. read more

Soooo.... let's jump right in to the dirty factor. This is not someplace you might want to observe the 5 second rule in. It's true. There is often a thin coating of grime. And yet - the charm! I LOVE this little house for a coffee getaway. There's something lovely about the big ol' porch and the books everywhere. I like the coffee here - prefer it to Ziggy's for sure - and like the culture even more. Don't wear your best white outfit, don't cop an attitude, and don't only have plastic money. They take cash or checks. read more

Coffee has improved - using Ozo now. The Italian style cappuccino is really good. They changed the recipe for the oatmeal coffee cake and it's not as good as it was. Most of the pastries are home baked with fresh ingredients and are always good. We go here often. New owner is a good guy but recent staff changes have gone down hill. read more

Was going to meet a colleague here, but I arrived early and called her to change the location. (this was a couple of months ago, maybe January 2010) There was something very unappealing about the place: dank smell of dirty kitchen towels. the emptiness. the feng shui of the place It was very different from the memory I had of the place from 4 or years ago. I don't think I'll be back. read more

While I really like their pastries, the brewed coffee is just OK (and I'm an Ozo's fan). I think they're ratio of beans to water may be off a bit. However, the reason for my two-star review is the employee/barista (possibly in her 50's who wears a bandana/kerchief) who was INCREDIBLY rude. I asked to help her carry various plates outside to our table and she slammed them down on an adjacent table rather than hand them to me personally. Also, she was incredibly annoyed that I even deigned to order food. I wonder if she realizes she works in a cafe? This one incident aside, I've tried repeatedly to give the cafe a little love every now and again, but the other day--after waiting 15 mins for my order of a black coffee to even be taken--I decided to just walk out and get coffee elsewhere. There wasn't anyone in line except for one gentleman that had already placed his food order (which rude kerchief lady was busy prepping). The barista gave me a head-nod, but didn't seem to understand how to multi-task and ask for my drink order as well. Just seemed like a huge waste of time in an empty cafe. I'll continue to support La Vita Bella and Java Stop even though they are further from my house. read more

Stay away!!!!! I went to Cafe Luna for the first time this weekend. The cafe was practically empty, no line, and the two employees behind the counter were more interested in chatting and laughing rather than helping me. I stood at the counter for six minutes and neither one of them even acknowledged me. When I said "excuse me?" I was given attitude and a dirty look. I turned around and immediately walked out crying. Two people walking in asked if I was okay and I explained what happened. They too were first time customers, so they walked out with me, we got in our cars and went over to Ziggi's. This establishment has the most HORRIBLE Customer Service I've ever experienced. I guess that explains why the cafe was empty. What a shame! read more

Love this place. Good coffee, the new owners have cleaned it up quite a bit, which is very nice. Get there early and grab a gluten-free blueberry muffin hot out of the oven... to die for! Seriously. read more
