“My absolute favorite coffee shop in Albuquerque.“

“If you’re looking for a great little coffeehouse and bistro then please go to Limonata on Silver Ave. The service, coffee and breakfast was impeccable. We had Cortata, Chocolate Piñon, Spinach Quiche and a Chicken and Green 🌶️ Crepe. You really don’t see customer service like this anymore. They are open Thursday- Monday 8-2. Plus, there is local art displayed that is for sale.“

“A beautiful and light space with plants, crafts, and books. Still in progress, you can tell there’s a bigger project in the works. Yet, what is here now is categorically the most open and fresh restaurant in the area. The sandwiches are to die for and the service is quick. A lot of care is put into the ingredients and presentation. The menu seems to mix classic techniques with new flavor profiles. Will come back here when downtown and would recommend this place to anyone that likes authenticity and individuality.“

“Catopia has an incredible selection of amazing kitties! They are so well taken care of, they are all happy and thriving! I actually felt bad taking my two adoptees out of Catopia, lol. The owner, Sandy is an absolute incredible human being 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜“

“Great supercharger stop and great food“

“Amazing place! came to Java Joe's all the way from Minneapolis MN. The food is really Good! and love the coffe🖤“

“Café Chica in Albuquerque exceeded all my expectations! I have been wanting to try this adorable place for months but life kept happening! Finally got the chance this weekend! I pre ordered a half dozen bombolinis with a variety of this week's flavors, a 3 pack of beignets, and a grazing box. I also chose to pick up a caramel iced latte when I picked up my order! The beignets were coming out fresh as I walked up to the window and walking away, the smell of fresh powdered sugar filled the air! I won't lie, the flavors of bombolinis this week (Carrot Cake, Chocolate Orange, Lavender Lemon, and Honey Chamomile) aren't flavors I'd normally order, but we put the bombos in the fridge over night and the next day, they were beyond delicious! We enjoyed the grazing box after a 3 hour drive up to Taos for the weekend (which is the bombo tops are a little smashed) and everything was delicious, especially the jam(?) and cheese! I will DEFINITELY be visiting/ordering again! They are located in the El Vado center off Central“

“Juicy J's is a hidden gem that deserves all the praise it gets. The employees are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel like a cherished guest. Their smoothies and toasts are simply divine, bursting with flavors that leave your taste buds dancing in delight. The café embraces diversity, proudly creating a queer-friendly space where everyone feels accepted and valued. Plus, their pet-friendly policy adds an extra dose of happiness. With free Wi-Fi and great music, it's an ideal spot to work or unwind. In short, Juicy J's is an oasis of deliciousness and inclusivity that leaves you feeling nourished and uplifted.“

“Glad to stop by before hitting the road!
Such a rich and smooth latte, my husband was happy and kept saying it’s good to have this iced vanilla latte for a long drive, plus they have the option of unsweetened matcha as well :)
On top of the good afternoon drinks, their parking is spacious. We will stop by again for sure!“

“We visit every time we are in Albuquerque“

“Frustrated with the Masthead location. I work in the building and hours say open 7am to 3pm, but they don't open until between 10:30 and 11:00--would love to be able to get breakfast. Also, full menu is never available, just a handful of lunch items. Been told numerous times "full menu is coming", but it's been months. C'mon guys...“

“exelente lugar..muy rico y tranquilo lugar“

Music selection for the restaurant...A+

Breakfast burrito..?

Otherwise...my new favorite cafe/diner“

“The kind woman who owns Cafe Zin is extraordinary. Her warmth and caring personality envelope her store and upon entering her space one is greeted with peace and quiet like a gentle hug of white noise. I asked her for a tarot card reading and she sweetly obliged but her council was so much more. She tapped into hidden things that she could never have known. Blew mine and my daughter’s mind. And we were thrilled before departing her wonderful company, that we both received hugs. Truly a heartfelt and touching experience for us.“

“Delicious and unique dishes! Tasty mimosas too!“

“We had a great experience with our afternoon tea. All the food was delicious, and the afternoon tea was very affordable compared to some of the other local options. Service was wonderful, and it was a great time.“

“This is a Starbucks inside sandia casino. Nothing special. So even if Starbucks is closed they remain open. This was the only coffee shop I found open on Christmas Day so that’s the bright side. Reduce your expectations to Starbucks level and you won’t be disappointed.I did roam around having trouble finding this place but don’t be like me and just ask the security as soon as you enter if you’re going here just for coffee.“

“Had an amazing dinner here in October. Ambiance on the outdoor patio was relaxing, the Mexican food was delicious and authentic, drinks were great, and our server, Dougie, was friendly and offered just the right amount of attentiveness. A bonus was being able to have our pup sit under the table and relax, too. That’s very welcome when you’re traveling with a pet and can’t leave him in hotel or car. Great place!“

“Hands down the best food in New Mexico. Love this place so much!!!“

“A Must-Visit for Breakfast Burritos and Sandwich Lovers!

I’ve been to this gem of a restaurant three times now, and I can confidently say it’s become my go-to spot for an amazing breakfast burrito and incredible sandwiches.

But it's not just the burritos that shine here. The sandwiches are equally impressive – You can really tell they put care into every meal they prepare.

The staff is always welcoming, and the atmosphere has a cozy, laid-back vibe that makes you feel right at home. If you're looking for a spot that serves up consistently great food with a friendly touch, this place should be at the top of your list!“

“I love the live jazz music that plays every night. The musicians are tops. Make sure to try the Veal Crab Cake. Also referred to as the the Surf & Turf Birthday Cake. Every Thursday, they have ‘Hotel Trivia Night’ where they quiz you on things like square footage, room capacity maximums, room rates by day of the week, and occupancy levels by season.“

“Just purchased a splash pad for my kids among other things cashier that helped me was very friendly was a great customer service was in and out for how packed and busy they were 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼“

“This cafe is a hidden gem, and has been around for close to three decades. Fresh, local pastries, bagels, and burritos compliment a variety of handcrafted beverages ranging from locally-roasted espresso to Red Bull infused with a range of flavors. The staff are a great and friendly team that all take pride in every drink. They even have a loyalty card!“

“The delightful and talented woman runs a well oiled kitchen. Her specials , if one is lucky enough to match your visit with one is always a good bet. As others have said, a fun place for a breakfast or lunch. Grab a ball cap or tee shirt downstairs no your way out.“

“This has got to be one of the coolest, cutest cafe in Burque. Do yourself a favor and try their little lavender latte ☕️, delish! Any of the toasts you pick, you will not regret! Two Thumbs Up 👍 👍!“
