Moondog Cafe and Bakery - Mancos, Colorado

Definitely coming back! Super cute inside with beautiful artwork. Breakfast menu had something for everyone and everything we ordered was great. Staff was great and kid-friendly. The baked goods were well stocked and some of the best we've ever had. Don't leave without a Moon Bombe if you like chocolate (and GF!). We will be back for lunch/dinner.

Note to staff: only bummer was my breakfast tacos fell apart. Maybe double up on the corn tortillas 👍🏻

Wow! As a Mancos local, I am so pleased at our new Moondog Cafe and Bakery.
The pastries are out of this world- the savory stuffed croissants are perfect for lunch, and the guava pastry is now my favorite. Had the best lamb burger (The Frenchman) for lunch, and for breakfast we had the Shakshuka and the Trout Benedict! Everything has been wonderful.

They are new, and there is a lot of negative comments about service - but I’ve been multiple times now and everyone is great. Give them some grace while they find their rhythm - the workers are dedicated and kind.

Absolutely go, have a delicious pastry to go or sit down for an amazing meal 💙

Great spot, totally transformed! Very very excited to have this in Mancos, and I am thrilled with so many vegan options! And, many options for all kinds of dietary preferences. Really excited to see this place do well.

The old restaurant was a gem and the new place is just so so . Food was good service is good but nothing special. If one thing was excellent it was the pastry’s .

Great little spot! Stopped in for breakfast and the huevos rancheros were wonderful. All of the baked goods looked delicious too. Atmosphere was super cute and everyone was really friendly.

Woo Hoo! Expectations were high due to renovations to the old bakery bldg. The new owners did a fantastic job- spacious and bright. The staff is friendly, the menu has a wide array of choices and they are continuing the tradition as the place to definitely eat in Mancos. My office is right around the corner and already had a business lunch which the flat bread with portobello mushrooms and arugula was so good. Also had breakfast and they have eggs benedict!! So happy to be fed well again in Mancos!

I am sad we have to drive away from Mancos and leave this restraunt with all this delicious food in the rear view mirror! We came out to visit Mesa Verde and stumbled on this hidden gem. Moondog definitely needs to be a destination point when coming to this region. We came for dinner. The steak was cooked to perfection, and if it wouldn't have been frowned upon, we would have licked the plate clean. The berry bbq sauce put it over the top. The stuffed squash, with all of its vibrant colors was a feast for my eyes before I even gobbled it up. Dessert was macarons and the moon bombe. The macarons had a perfect crunch on the outside and the right amount of softness on the inside. We enjoyed the dark chocolate heart ones. It felt almost evil to be devouring the chocolate moon bombe, since it was such a work of art by itself. Our server Madison, had the biggest smile and made us feel right at home and welcome. Maxine also was great with making sure our drinks stayed full. Every member of the staff we came in contact with, made us feel right at home. Im not even sure if I loved the food more or the whimsical murals covering the back wall. The cactus paintings had a very Wes Anderson feel to them and I wish I could put them in my house. I can not say enough good things about Moondog, we are so grateful we stumbled upon it!

The Shashuka and berry tart were both exceptional. Lots of gluten free and vegetarian options. Fresh Juices were delicious (I had the watermelon-cucumber-mint). Service and atmosphere were top notch as well. Would recommend.
