Cafe La Luna — Restaurant in Aldine

This is a cross post of my Facebook review. I ride around Houston exploring for new cafe shops and am using the 2025 houston cafe passport and telling at least those in my world about my experiences. This is from my recent visit to Cafe La Luna:

Continuing the Houston coffee trek of 2025. Wanting to stay a few minutes from home because it's hot, I found myself this afternoon at cafe la luna. Very unassuming from the outside. If you're not looking for it you could drive by it. Inside it's Inviting and welcome. Playing Latin smooth jazz on the playlist, this definitely has a different vibe that I like. I normally order hot coffee but on a 90 degree Houston day after the rain we've gotten this week, that's not in the cards. I Ordered an iced coffee they say is one of their popular iced coffees called the honey bear até and it's delicious!. Even though the book often has recommendations, I like to ask the baristas working..

They do serve breakfast here, I would definitely come back to enjoy that. I mean, how can I not love a place serving up...

Truly disappointed in my experience here. Drove 30min for a second visit only to be told that croissants, crepes and marquesitas were all unavailable. When I asked for the fillings of a crepe (chicken bacon cheese) to be put into their only bread option (bagel), staff said those fillings could only be put on crepes. What? We spent about 30min here eating ham and cheese sandwiches that I couldve made at home. How are all these staples for your products gone by 11:30am but you close at 3pm?

As I left, I saw the staff making crepes. Maybe they suddenly found the supply but didn't bother to rectify with the people who had asked before....

Josue & Chelsea were some of the most hospitable people I ever met. This coffee shop is the only coffee shop I have found to have a very intimate and welcoming atmosphere in the greater Houston area near the Humble & Aldine area. I highly recommend it and am excited that they are celebrating their 1 year anniversary. Looking forward to seeing them grow. I ordered a hot tea and raspberry pastry. They were delicious. There is plentiful seating, offer outlets for charging laptops, and have comfortable seating. There is only 1 restroom, though it is clean. Thank you for chatting with me...
