I’ve been to the original location in Austin so I was excited to try out this location in Nassau Bay after moving to the area. The service was very friendly and the pastries tasty but very overpriced! The cappuccino I ordered had a little too much milk and was really no different than a plain latte and took away from the experience of the espresso. I spent $16 with the tip included on a simple cappuccino and pastry. I wasn’t too thrilled about the cappuccino and the pastry is not quite worth the cost if I’m being honest.. and as other reviews have mentioned, the volume of the music is a little bit louder than necessary.
Also, I find an issue with how such a nice coffee shop will only serve their drinks in single-use cups, resulting in unnecessary waste. I know this makes me sound like a Karen but hear me out. There are a lot of patrons who sit in while they enjoy their drinks, but all cups are single use. When I asked about this one of the baristas said it wasn’t their choice but they were glad that I believed in reducing waste. The original location that I visited served drinks in mugs by default. The mugs add a lot of value to the experience as well as reduce waste and I would imagine they would even reduce cost for the business. Also I don’t really think having a pastry served in a paper bag for dining in is becoming of a higher end coffee shop. I hope the owner can respond to this review and reconsider.
I will return to the location and give it another chance to update my review, I just hope they reconsider only serving drinks in single use cups and spotlight the espresso a...
Read moreI love the ambiance and overall feel at Summer Moon. It is warmly decorated and makes the perfect place to study, or even socialize. The lighting and multiple seating options make it accessible and a good fit for many. The group tables make a perfect place to socialize while the individual tables make it possible to enjoy time on our own and relax. They have an open menu with room for customization, such as swapping out ingredients to better accommodate your needs. The menu provides options such as swapping milk, and adding ingredients to modify your drink. The service is always quick and the workers always greet me with a happy tone which contributes to the feel of this café. There are also many Summer Moon coffee items such as mugs, hats, and shirts. Along with this, they provide coffee beans sold separately to provide customers with the ingredients to create their own coffee. One of my favorite things about their coffee is that oak roasted. The staff's dedication to creating a cozy vibe and uplift spirits is very admirable. I will definitely continue coming here and try new drinks off of their menu! I hope all the staff keep up their amazing work and contribute to the...
Read moreSo I have never been to Summer Moon coffee, so I wanted to see what the hype was about. I went to the Nassau Bay location because it’s near my job. Ordered online about 7:15am, walked in to pick up my order a few minutes later. There’s about 6 people working behind the counter, only 1 person in front of me waiting on her order. I see why some of the other reviews say they are selective at who they greet. I wasn’t greeted or helped when I walked in. I’m standing in line waiting for my coffee. No one says anything to me at all. They are so wrapped up in what they are doing which I understand they are busy in the morning, but at least tell me you will be with me in a moment or something. I was standing byin line for a while and had to figure out that my coffee was sitting on the counter near the back entrance. When I picked up my coffee, I mentioned to one of the employees who saw me walk in and said nothing “my coffee was sitting here the whole time I was standing in the wrong spot” and she goes “Oh I’m sorry I didn’t notice.” I got the winter moon latte. It was OK. Nothing super great about it. I will stick with Starbucks or black...
