Crescent Moon Coffee

The latte was the best I’ve ever had in Lincoln, NE. The staff is super kind and goes out of the way to get to know you. I loved the chill atmosphere and spent a good four hours working while enjoying a couple coffees. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed an oat milk Carmel latte and the Works Crepe. The latte was absolutely perfect as was the crepe. If you are wondering if this coffee shop, located in the basement, is worth the stop, it certainly is. While you wait for your perfectly crafted beverage, you can walk around to check out some local artist’s work or just appreciate the architecture inside Crescent Moon.

Coffee is great and I like the atmosphere. Unfortunately the staff is not professional. They openly complain about clients. Currently there is a snow storm, and I walk as my method of transport. I don’t want to walk somewhere that may be closed due to the weather, so I called to ask if they were open. As I have been here a few hours, the staff has answered the phone for others, presumably asking a similar question, and they have loudly exclaimed “ I swear if one more person calls and asks if we are open”, as well as mocked those that have already called. I guess they don’t realize that the people who have called are potentially sitting ten feet away, and that is who they are mocking.

I LOVE this place. I haven't been going out much due to the pandemic, but I wanted to try a new coffee place and Crescent Moon is absolutely adorable. They are reasonably priced, the employees are really sweet and the service is great, and the food and coffee is awesome. They also have some of the best pandemic precautions I've seen in Lincoln, everyone was wearing a mask correctly, they have order and pick up windows instead of full dine-in (but they do have two tables set up that you can eat at if you choose) and plexiglass barriers for the employees. Plus it's just a really lovely location and building. Great experience.

One of my fave local coffee shops. They also have crepes! Some days the have live music too. 🎶 💓

really cute coffee place, the vibe is right. quiet ambiance.

my oat milk latte wasn’t the best in the world — the oat milk really overpowers any flavor of the coffee. if i lived here i would def come back and try something else tho!

The atmosphere and the aesthetic of the place is great! But the baristas are rude, especially to poc. This place used to be my favorite coffee shop in town, but in recent years (ie since the reopening after covid) the service has been okay at best.

I LOVE this place, everything is soooooooo good. Vibe is very cozy, drinks are amazing, appreciation of the arts is extremely present, AND THE ROAST BEEF PANINI IS SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL

What a place to sit and relax all day , they have great coffee selection with delicious desserts. I would recommend this place to everyone!
Note : the Coffee is on the lower level of the building.

Enjoy!

Crescent moon was absolutely lovely. There were so many different cozy spots to sit in no matter what preference is. There were quite spots and louder areas so it's a great place to study, meet up with friends, or just grab a coffee. You go downstairs to enter and the whole vibe was just perfect for a coffee shop. They even had live music when I was there! And the barista was incredibly welcoming and helpful.
