Came here for the first time this morning! It's a cute little place with quiches, crepes, and bakery items being the main star of the show. The patio would be nice when it gets warmer. There was plenty of parking around. My friend and I got the hot raspberry rose latte, the waffles with strawberries, blueberries, bananas, and almonds on top, a 12 oz hot PSL for me, and the nutella bacon crepes and added whipped cream (came out to $36 for the both of us). They had several different soda flavors and many syrups for customization. Staff was friendly. It took a little bit longer than I had thought it would for the crepe and waffle to come out, but we weren't in a hurry. The crepe was very filling and I almost regretted eating the whole thing, but it was so good. Look forward to at least trying the pumpkin loaf for next time. 2025 #80 read more

Limonata Cafe - PSL with bacon Nutella crepe and fluffy waffles and raspberry rose latte in the background - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Limonata is a quant little spot on the corner of a little strip mall at the corner of Silver of Wellesley. My boyfriend and I took a short mile walk to get here for a late breakfast. The line was a bit intimidating, stretching through the dining room. It took short while to make it to the counter. We ordered a breakfast crepe and a sweet crepe with nutella and bananas, along with some coffees. Our drinks made their way to our table before our food. Our food was good, only wish the crepe's were cooked a bit longer, they were still soft at some parts. Overall, a really cute spot. Very eclectic with a lot decorative items inside. Plenty of seating outside as well. read more

This place is super cute and the outdoor seating is great for people watching. The staff were friendly and although the line to order took some time, the food came out very fast. I got a monte cristo crepe and it was the perfect combo of sweet and savory. I also got a chai which was pretty bland, I wish it had more spices and was a touch sweeter. Overall worth the visit and just a fun area of town. I'll be back to try more! read more

I finally tried Limonata and it does not disappoint! After waiting in line a few minutes to order, I chose the lox and cream cheese crepe (minus onions because raw onions are a tool of Satan) plus an iced drip coffee. My food arrived pretty quickly and yum! The crepe was tender and fresh off the crepe griddle, which I imagine has some fancy French name. Generously filled with lox, cream cheese, tomatoes, and capers, it was light but satisfying and delicious. The iced coffee was great as well. You can tell they use freshly ground coffee. My husband loves crepes so I am looking forward to bringing him here. Thanks, Limonata! read more

Delicious, eggy crepe. Ordered the breakfast crepe with sausage and bacon. Not very much meat in there, it was more potatoes than anything. For a place named, 'Limonata Cafe' the lemonade was just ok. Cool funky place with Matchbox cars and odd art everywhere. Nice staff. read more

Best coffee shop with homemade tasties! Star for having almond syrup in my fru-fru latte. Asked what the best dish was and got pointed to the chicken green chili lasagna. Way too big for breakfast but an excellent dish to split with a buddy. Another round of applause for their shaded and comfortable patio. For sure you should give them a try when in the area. read more

I have long hoped to try Limonata cafe but the stars had never aligned...until now. And thank the powers that be that they did because the crepes here are 10/10. The Breakfast Crepe was so soft and delicious and plenty filling. There's also lots of seating, both indoors and out, and lots of crepe options to choose from, giving me plenty reason to go back and indulge some more. read more

First time trying Limonata and will have to say 100 times yes! Starts when you first walk in there waa a gentleman who is making crepes. We asked him the process and he kindly told us the ins and outs. You get a menu, go to the counter and order, then find anywhere you would like to sit. We got to the register and observing the cashier 4 orders back, he is amazing! He knows his regulars. He is very in tune with every single one that he talked to. We ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon and the grilled chicken panini with chips and a side salad, lavender lemonade, and a mocha coffee. Green chile chicken lasagna and Apricot strudel to go. Our sandwiches were so good and flavorful. The lavender lemonade was nice and refreshing and the coffee a perfect balance! It is such a very cozy place to be and they make you feel right at home! We will definitely be coming back to eat their delicious food and great service from Phil the cashier. Can't wait to try the lasagna and strudel later. read more

Limonata Cafe - Green chile chicken crepe with Provolone cheese - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Crepes cooked the French way and great size 10 for that the filling blah be it the savory or the sweet blah. For fruit it's crazy expensive. The potatoes in my crepe were undercooked. The green chili where? 3 tiny unspicy pieces. The environment small chaotic hippy vibes with Knick knacks for sale all over not my vibe but some people love it. Outside seating is nice. Chai tea... terrible unless you really love just clove and cinnamon water. The people are very nice and friendly which was great. I probably won't come again, because to me it's not worth the price tag $17 for a crepe with some strawberries banana slices and blueberries with a little whipped cream and frangipane and almond slices isn't worth that but it was good but not amazing or great. The pesto in the crepe was really good. Kid friendly and easy parking. read more

I've come to Limonata a handful of times over the past five years, and each time have left with a full belly and more peaceful attitude. From sweet crepes to savory sandwiches, this café has plenty of options to satisfy. The restaurant itself is lovely, featuring artwork from local artists, beautiful plants, and an assortment of knick knacks, making the place feel cozy without being overstimulating. Outside, there is a lovely fountain and in spring the trees around bloom pink. The workers here are top-notch too, as each time I've come in they've been so kind, engaging, and service has been exceptional. Do Albuquerque a favor and support wonderful local businesses such as Limonata! read more

Wow! Just stopped in to Cafe Limonata here in Albuquerque NM. The sign said "Best Coffee Around". No lie. "Move over" she said to every other coffee shop in town. Ordered a Spinach quiche. I have never (not making this up) had a quiche this tasty. This cafe is off the beaten path on the corner of Wellesley and Silver SE. Cannot believe there is not a line out the door. And thankful there's not a line! Also, if you love Hot Wheels their shopping collection is loaded with ones we've never seen. wow. just wow. read more

Great food and friendly . The prices are decent for the quality of food served. Ambience is cozy and eclectic.

Food is good and hot, always served with a smile. The sound is never loud for it's size, also there is a small outdoor patio to enjoy the outdoors. read more

Decided to come here for a last minute lunch date with a friend and her little one. The food was great overall. I like the idea of lox crepe but it didn't quite hit the spot. The matcha cheesecake was good but it didn't really taste like matcha. The service was wonderful. The staff was so fun and kind to the baby and it warmed my heart! I'd come again and try something else on their menu! read more

What a cute, friendly little place. The food was delicious, but a little on the cold side.

Service was a bit slow on a busy Sunday morning. Somehow our order got lost in the mix of things and we ended up waiting for 45 minutes until we spoke up after seeing people get served before us. We were nearly fainting from hunger and the manager felt very bad and gave us a full refund, our order for free, and some baked goods and free refills to eat while waiting for our order. We didn't get our food until an hour after we ordered but they made it right! read more

I ate out on the patio with a friend today. I ordered an iced chi tea and an almond paste crepe. The crepe flavor reminded me of marzipan-also almondy. It was delightful! My sweet tooth was appeased. The atmosphere was charming and homey. Definitely recommended! read more

Nice little place. My daughter went for lunch on our way to the airport. We had the crepes and they were super tasty.

Love crepes! Hadn't found a place in Albuquerque then one day drove by and saw their sign. Had to go and definitely worth it! These are soft crepes. If you prefer crispy crepes that they are not. Manage your expectations. For me. I love all kinds of crepes. Good size portions and tasty! All served with a smile we' ll be back! read more

Food, service,price- all is excellent My favorites are the quiche and gluten- free crepes. GLBTQ read more

The food and atmosphere is great! The service is poor. Don't be in a rush, even at slow times.

This place has the best crepes in the state of New Mexico and the best service. The staff is all lovely and the shop has a beautiful collection of art. Cannot recommend this place enough read more

Limonata is a cute, little, local place located in the Nob Hill area. This restaurant serves breakfast and lunch. The restaurant is clean, and the staff is friendly. You order at the counter and they bring you your food. The counter-gentleman/cashier who took my order was exceptionally friendly and professional, not only to me but to everyone in the line ahead of me. They offer a variety of food, pastries, and beverages. My husband and I had breakfast. I selected the Vegan breakfast bowl and my husband selected the Wrangler breakfast bowl. My bowl was a combination of fresh veggies, primarily potatoes, & served with a side of salsa. My husbands bowl consisted of potatoes, veggies, egg, meats, and cheese. My review is based primarily on my vegan breakfast bowl. Although the veggies were fresh, which I totally appreciate, the bowl lacked flavor. Had it not been for the salsa, I doubt I would have eaten as much of it as I did (I ate about 1/2). I was hoping it would have had a variety of spices on it, but it didn't- it was flavorless. My husband however gave his breakfast bowl four stars And stated he would have given it five stars but it had too much cheese. For those who eat crepes, They do offer a large variety of crepes. The crepes are made to order, looked, and smelled amazing. You can eat inside or outside. We sat outside on the side patio under an umbrella. The weather was beautiful And the patio is cute. I will eat here again but will try lunch next time. This was my first breakfast experience at this restaurant. read more

Limonata is a no frills kinda place. You order at the counter, they bring it to you and you bus your own table. The food is amazing. I had a veggie panini with eggplant, zucchini, red bell and goat cheese. Delish!!!! And a chocolate croissant. Another yummy. It's near the university. Very friendly staff. read more

Such great food!! And an awesome vibe. Really lovely staff. I have visited when I am in NM from Los Angeles and this place has some of the best food I have ever had. Get the green chile quiche--so good. The new owner, Scott, is a pastry chef so you can bet all the treats are awesome. I'd hate for this charming neighborhood place to close because of COVID. :(( read more

This place is so delicious and very unique. A cute little restaurant with great service and great food. I go almost every weekend. When you go to this place I recommend at least getting two things you cannot get enough of their food. Going on a date, family breakfast or with a group of friends it's great for everything. Go give this place a visit you will not regret it. read more

My wife and I enjoyed an excellent breakfast at the Limonata Café. She had the Ham & Green Chile Quiche, and I had the Bacon Burrito with Salsa. The Quiche was perfectly cooked and flavorful, with an especially mouth-watering pie crust and cheese topping. The Bacon Burrito was well-balanced with egg, potatoes, bacon, green chile and cheese - plus the savory salsa. The homemade cranberry pecan bread was delicious as well. They offer an excellent selection of coffees and teas - the Americano was perfect with 4 shots of espresso, and the regular coffee was rich and full-bodied. Service was very quick, and the staff were attentive and super-friendly. Prices were very reasonable. We definitely plan to come back to sample their wide variety of crepes, Paninis, sandwiches, salads and platters. Very highly recommended. read more

Limonata is an adorable neighborhood cafe with a wonderful wrap around patio. They have a nice selection of healthy food and the staff could not be more friendly and helpful. I had this salad with chicken and a olive oil lemon dressing. It was delicious. I also had the lavender lemonade which was good too. They have a huge selection of coffee drinks and interesting deserts. Next time I might try the amaretto mocha and their cute personal sized cheese cake. With so many lovely things to try I'll be coming back many more times. read more

Service was great and the employees were so nice! My friend i an enjoyed hanging in the patio area in the shade of a lovely tree. Unfortunately, the Breakfast Crepe I had was bland and unseasoned. The eggs were extremely rubbery, and to top it all off, it was cold and the cheese wasn't melted. The highlight of the meal was the salsa because it was the only thing that had a semblance of flavor. My friend got a green chile chicken crepe and she had the same problem: the crepe had no flavor, it was cold, and the chicken was dry. She ended up getting a side of salsa as well to help it go down. Honestly would not go back since there's much better breakfast options in Nob Hill. read more

I went on a Sunday morning, after seeing the 30-60 minute lines at other places I discovered this place. The restaurant/cafe is fairly small but with a very robust coffee and food menu. I had no wait at all to get to order and find a place to sit. There was an outdoor seating area with a food fire pit (wonderful in the morning), the design and layout is unique and pleasant. The staff were very welcoming and volunteered to refill my coffee before I asked. My food was ready before I was done adding cream and sugar. I tried the Monte Cristo crape and I was blown away by the flavor, size, and presentation. The crape was unexpectedly large and perfectly done. Very satisfying. This is the place I want to have a great breakfast with comfortable quiet time. Ideal for a date or time alone with a book. I finished off the morning with a scone and coffee refill (yay free refills)! The guests were chatty and welcoming. read more

Ohhhh Bellas (and Bros), you simply must carve time out of yo' busy schedule to make a pit stop at Limonata...beauuuuutiful, fresh ingredients ~ such a splendid atmosphere, the small patio is so lovely in "The Village" setting....this would definitely be another great weekend brunch spot! We shared a sweet crepe with nutella, strawberries, bananas & whipped cream, a caprese crepe and a spinach & ricotta torta with a lavender lemonade to accompany delizioso! Gluten free, vegetarian and vegan selections (and substitutions) are available, so come one, come all. And with all the fuss on the price of a latte....I won't mind paying a bit extra for their coffee on my next visit, it's sustainably grown and responsibly harvested, and served in an environment that delights me. side note: Limonata offers a number of discounts for their patrons, including: *10% discount for military, law enforcement and fire protection (in uniform or with valid ID) *5% discount for Nob Hill residents and business owners *10% discount for Journal Rewards members (with card) read more

I want to preface what I'm about to say by telling you that the people who work at Limonata seem genuinely nice and also, for whatever reason, really like their job. This is how it seems, it could be an act, but it feels good to walk into a place and be struck by the impression that everyone wants to be here. I got a salmon crepe. Overwhelmingly brackish, salty. They included pesto which was just more of the same but also gritty to boot. I went in starving and I left starving. I dropped by Ihatov down the street and got a sandwich to go. Also, their decor was coordinated by a hoarder and all of their food is covered in plastic. I wish them success, reflection and change read more

Limonata is fantastic! I went there for breakfast this morning and had a wonderful experience. The service was terrific. Staff was helpful, inviting and made the whole experience perfect. Refills of coffee were delicious. Food was yummy! I had a caprese crepe and it was the perfect way to begin the day. My partner had the quiche and it looked super tasty. I had a hard time deciding what to order. Everything looked so good! I don't usually get flavored coffee but something about the chocolate piñon peeked my interest. I was not disappointed. It was not sugary but it rather fused with oils. So good! The ambience was lovely. Outdoor and indoor options. I should have taken photos but I suppose I was too busy enjoying the experience that I forgot to document it. I will definitely be back! Thank you Limonata! read more

Was recommended this place by a friend. Very intimate spot with a pretty descent selection of food. I ordered the breakfast crepe and my wife had the Pollo crepe. The taste was descent and and the overall experience wasn't bad but it wasn't overwhelming good. My complaints are, if you are going to have me come to the counter to order, at least be friendly and notice that we haven't been there before. Also, it doesn't help when you don't have items on your menu available. But ok, you sellout of items, I'm not going to fault you for that but the wait for the food was beyond reasonable and then for the food to not be hot when it did come was not good. Lastly, to pay $50 for 2 savory crepes and 2 sweet crepes seems a bit much. Bottom line is the food was ok, feeling of being welcome wasn't and the cost...well let's just say I've had more and better for a lot less. read more
