Crema's Take

Half Moon Rondout's owner JT has built something genuinely special around impeccable donuts and pastries—the apple cider and babka are regulars' obsessions—paired with thoughtful coffee and creative drink specials that actually justify the hype. This is the rare coffee shop where you'll linger for hours because the vibe draws people in like a community hub, whether you're a local grabbing your usual or a traveler making it a detour-worthy stop between destinations.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

This cafe has a really unique vibe, which I personally loved. On my last visit, which was a few months back, I ordered a coffee with a croissant and a donut. Everything was pretty good except for my lātte, which felt overly milky, but it wasn't bad. Overall, it's a nice cafe in…
