By far the best place in Las Cruces for breakfast and lunch!!!! Excellent coffee and beautiful food wrapped up in a quirky decor. I highly recommend the breakfast bagel with chorizo and fried egg.
Favorite place for brunch in Cruces with fresh and beyond amazing coffee, pastries and service that makes you feel right at home!! Perfect for dining in or taking out. Featuring weekly specials, and their very own “Chingona Market” on every first Sunday of the month with entertainment and selection you will not regret experiencing!!
We came here to try a new breakfast place and were blown away! The food was amazing! 😍 The atmosphere and esthetic were really cool, and they have work from local artists for sale; they also have a bookshelf if you want to sit and read with your drink. We ordered the blueberry bliss, the BLT, the sausage, corn, and zucchini quiche, and the Sun Valley scone sandwich, each fantastic in their own right. They are child-friendly, and our kiddo did great with them. In all, we highly recommend this cafe!
Very tasty fresh made food! The owners are so kind 😊 They take so much time to give you tips and advice on your travels! We stopped at their place and saw some nice road signs which unfortunately were not for sale, but they hooked us up with some others that were their own 👍🏻👍🏻 how nice!! Be sure to stop at this place if you’re in for a pleasant surprise. The interior alone is worth it. It is located in a neighborhood which gives it so much more character than when it would be located in a mall for instance. They have inside and outside seating and parking is right there on the spot.
Glad I found this Cafe. Owner is awesome and menu was on point!!! Wifi is available and solid. Will definitely be back here for the espresso and scones.
I love this place the coffee , food , vibe and most definitely their kindness. Inside, outside dining and drive thru. Today I stopped in and ordered this Zuccini Pizza Casserole and is was very delicious.
Nessa has amazing energy, treats and atmosphere. What a delicious pit stop that is absolutely worth the trip from EPTX! Thank you ma'am!
A most charming Cafe, TASTY lunch spot, family kitchen cooking! Beautiful food and baked goods. Creative Lattes & the Price is so nice... You can eat something filling for $10 to 15 each...! Or pick up a $5 Latte or $3 coffee... We returned - and this time NESSA herself brought out a cool Doggie waterbowl, and a Bacon Puppachino for a very good dog! Their homemade Choritzo Burrito with homemade hot sauce is the bomb-diggity
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A True New Mexico Gem — Warm Hearts, Outstanding Food & Road-Trip Magic at Nessa’s Café My visit to Nessa’s Café was one of those unexpected, joy-filled travel moments that stay with you long after the miles roll by. Run by a wonderful husband-and-wife team, this café radiates warmth, kindness, and genuine hospitality from the moment you walk in. As an RV traveler who’s always searching for places with soul, Nessa’s instantly felt extra special. What truly set this experience apart was their thoughtfulness and sense of humor. They even set up a place for my boney travel companion—well past his prime—so I wouldn’t feel alone while dining. That small, playful, deeply human gesture turned a great meal into a memorable experience. We laughed, chatted, and shared stories, and by the end of the visit it felt less like eating out and more like spending time with new friends. And then there’s the food—absolutely outstanding. Every bite was flavorful, comforting, and clearly made with care. It was so good that I couldn’t resist taking two meals to go for the road, which says everything you need to know. When you’re traveling long distances in an RV, finding food that’s both delicious and satisfying is gold—and Nessa’s delivered in a big way. As someone who intentionally seeks out extra-special, locally owned places to eat while traveling, I can honestly say Nessa’s Café surpassed most. It’s welcoming, heartfelt, fun, and delicious—the perfect combination for travelers, locals, and anyone who believes great food tastes even better when it’s served with kindness. If you’re anywhere nearby in New Mexico, do yourself a favor and stop in. You’ll leave full, smiling, and maybe even with leftovers for the road—just like I did. 🚐🍽️✨
Very cool little spot! We love a good small business/coffee shop! We had the whipped coffee (pictured) would suggest adding a flavor of your choice to make it even better, chorizo quesadilla (pictured), chorizo burrito, Nutella scone, and cherry danish. All very tasty! All I can say is that I wish I had more of that salsa because it was so yummy and we only got a small bit but otherwise all around good experience! Very cozy vibes! Indoor and outdoor seating available. They also have a drive-thru.
