    Chocolate Cupcake And Giardiniera Focaccia
    Steve A.

    Found out about this all vegan bakery in Batavia. It has everything from breads to cupcakes. New Moon has premade items as well as making things for custom orders. Also there's an indoor dining area if wanting to get something to eat here. The prices aren't bad on most things. Came to get some breads and pies for a gathering. It's a bakery that only uses plant based products. There's no eggs, milk, or things like those. From what we have tasted, these things are hardly missed. Take home things, or you can enjoy some items on site. It's about $4 for a cupcake. Lots of icing. There's several flavors including chocolate and vanilla. It's about $5 to get a big piece of focaccia. The best one of these was the one made with giardiniera, which had a pretty hot spice. Best bakery around if looking for plant based. It's closed Sundays to Tuesdays. The entire selection is okay for vegans.

    Medium size space with 6-7 tables. Busy in the weekend morning. They also have pasta and other items to purchase Nice service. Menu changes so look into their Instagram. I would like to have more salty options. Seitan sandwitch- 4/5 - warm tasty Pesto moderate stick - 3.5/5 Sponge cake slice - 3.5/5 - moist but little heavy

    Delicious food, welcoming environment, and lovely owners who take the time to get to know their customers and greet them by name. Some of my favorites on the menu are the garlic knots, quinoa salad, tomato focaccia, iced chai, mostess cupcakes, and the many seasonal/special menu items. Highly recommend!

    New Moon is legit not-to-miss for food & friendliness. The vibe is warm, welcoming, spacious enough for privacy at a table with friends, yet cozy. Delicious iced chai. Bad news ~ I'm spoiled forever now! While the price point for chai is similar to what you'll see at Starbucks, man, the quality here is unmatched. One sip and I felt transported to India, the spices are unbelievably good. I was like. what is happening, where am I?! I'll probably feel the need for a Chai from New Moon any time I'm within 20 miles of Batavia. I recommend the scones too - I had an apricot rosemary one. It has very nicely balanced notes of sweet apricot and rosemary, not too heavy on either. And like, really REALLY good crumb. You know that experience where you're like, yum, and wow that's different, and I want another bite of that? Yep, that's the stuff I'm talking about. I'm just visiting, for care of a family member. We came here to bring back goodies to spoil him. Wish I lived here. And y'all, if you do, stop in for a chai and a scone for me. You'll thank your lucky stars. And realize this is a go-to when you need your mid-week pick-me-up treat-yourself kind of day!

    Ohhhhh my, ohhhhh my! Visited New Moon with my gal pal running buddy and the food and bakery items, delicious. My friend, Carol, says if we were to serve to non vegans they wouldn't know that they were not eating meat products. The chef/ creators truly put a lot of effort and love into presenting scrumptious, wholesome, filling, satisfying food. The bakery is just lovely, peaceful, historic feel.

    Was pulled over in Batavia on a phone call and noticed I was next to this shop that had come up on social media a couple of times so decided to stop in. They have a nice variety of vegan pastries and baked goods to choose from which the staff member was more than happy to tell me all about. He mentioned that they also had soups and breakfast sandwiches. Although I had told myself that I wouldn't be grabbing anything as I had just finished lunch that quickly changed when my brain got hold of the sight and smell of the tray of focaccia. I grabbed an herb one and it was delicious. I'm not vegan but will definitely keep New Moon in mind the next time I'm in the mood for a pastry.

    You need to try this bakery!! PROS: -Small business located in downtown Batavia. -Small batch. -Vegan! -Good selection. -I purchased the cinnamon sugar and vanilla glazed donuts. Both were fresh, delicious, and left me wanting more! CONS: -Limited street parking. -- Looking forward to trying more treats!

    I have been driving an hour round trip each week to eat at NMW since it opened 2 years ago. Their food is so delicious. It's actually made it disappointing when we travel and try other vegan restaurants and donuts because I'm so disappointed they don't live up to New Moon Vegan standards and taste.

    The tastiest vegan treats you'll ever have! It's so hard to find yeast-raised vegan donuts, and New Moon not only makes them but blows other donuts out of the water! Their staff is friendly and helpful, and the ambiance is quaint and inviting. They also have local gifts and creations for sale, and it really gives off the most quintessential small business and local cafe vibe that feels like home.

    Fun art adorns the walls.

We started with an order of their Street Corn Deviled Eggs which were amazing..super creamy. They do have a GF menu so my wife had a bowl of their homemade chili and I had their Italian Beef Bao trio. Both were delicious and very meaty. They have an extension whiskey/bourbon list plus their burgers looked amazing. We will definitely be back!

    Short answer: Yes! Would recommend!…read more Long answer: Came to celebrate 2 birthdays and was sat at "the chefs table" which is a high-top table right in front of the kitchen. It was just too hot sitting there and also noisy from the kitchen and orders being called out, etc. Asked (I think) the manager, Amanda, if there's any way we can move to another table cause we are just sweating and wouldn't be able to survive through dinner, haha! We also had our 83 year old grandma there so we were even more concerned for her well being. Amanda was accomadating with offering us a different table as long as we could finish in 90 minutes. I told her I'll take it! She felt bad for the time limit also, but I told her I appreciate her accommodation even more. The food and drinks turned out great and the service was superb along with a unique ambiance! Definitely recommend!

Every single time I go here I need to get the marinated olives, I don't know what they do to them, but it's amazing. Great farm to table kitchen with a unique evolving menu. I would definitely say that this restaurant is leading a new charge for Saint Charles as far as the culinary experience that we're looking for when we go out for date night or girls night out. Very elevated very refined very unique. You've got to try it out!

There is ample lighting and the staff is welcoming and friendly. The food is BBQ and they have a little bit of everything to offer. That is great, but makes it hard to choose what you want! We certainly had that problem but ultimately were very happy with our meals. They pretty much cover all the bases as far as BBQ and the sides. The flavors were very tasty! Having one in Glen Ellyn won't have us running back to this location but that is only on account of circumstance.

These days the price hikes are expected, nothing new, and the day Nobel started to impose a penalty for paying via credit card (which initially they were ALSO taxing, and at a rate no less that was higher than Geneva's local tax percentage) was when I started only paying with cash. Hey, I like(d) their food and love(d) their employees, I'm willing to pay out the nose and jump through hoops for the experience. I'll admit, I went from eating there almost every day during Covid to maybe once a month, but when my family asks me where we should go out, Nobel is ALWAYS the first that comes to mind. Within the past week I've visiting Nobel for the last time. Prices notably up again, check. Many new employees, slower service, and uh oh, what's this, the food quality is in the toilet? Couple that with another service by Kelli and her terrible attitude, and things aren't looking great. Portions. Like everywhere else, as I said, at Nobel the prices are up and portions are down. My wife's favorite though, their lobster roll (formerly one of the best I've ever had in the United States, and I travel along the east coast quite a bit), has taken a hit harder than anything else on their menu from what I can ascertain. $31 now, which isn't new, it's been $31 since the beginning of 2026 from what I can remember, but $31 and it's probably 30% smaller than it used to be. For $31 you get a lobster roll that literally looks like a piece of Texas toast folded in half now, a 30% smaller portion of lobster, and if by some off chance you order the side salad, the side salad is also smaller. I can go on about all of the other cuts that are evident, but the $31 lobster roll is about the best display of the dismal direction Nobel House is headed. Sad... Nobel House, you'll be missed.

Our waitress greeted us warmly and quickly brought out water and coffee. She did a great job of keeping both glasses and mugs full throughout the meal. We did not wait long for our food after we ordered it. I got their brunch burrito with a side of fruit. The burrito was a good size, not too small but not so big that I could not finish it. I got it with bacon as my meat and dipped it in the chipotle vinaigrette on the side as I ate it. It was awesome! I really loved that instead of black beans, there were refried beans in it, as they added a great creaminess to the meal. The fruit bowl was also impressive to me, as it was full of diverse fresh fruit. It was better than the normal assorted melons I am used to at restaurants. I got an iced salted caramel latte to go before leaving since we had a long car ride ahead of us. It was on the sweet side, with little espresso flavor coming through, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I would love to come back on a busier weekend when the place is more lively and try their huge lunch menu!
