Been coming here since around 2020. Great cozy spot to work on things, read a book, or hang out with a coffee in hand. Matt, Josh, Steve and everyone else that works there I've met are all very friendly and kind people. They have a humble and service oriented attitude shown through how they carry themselves and their actions. I believe they have been able to create a great community space centered around coffee where everyone feels welcome. Coffee is among the best in the city. When they switched from their old provider into roasting their own coffee (I think a year or more back) their coffee was just as great.

My coworkers and I have been going to Castle for the last 2-3 years because Castle is amazing. They've kept their prices affordable and they have some of the best coffee I've ever had. I usually get the lavender latte. Not to mention, the staff are so friendly and welcoming. If they ever delivered, that would be a dream come true.

I used to go here all the time when I lived close. If you look at the reviews I do around town I usually spam nonsensical reviews for the sake of spreading confusion on the Internet but for this place I'll actually be serious. Their coffee has by far been one of the best I have ever had in my life. Like I considered driving back over there all the way from the heights, that's how good it is. The staff are always nice and polite too. Legit I hope these guys expand and stick around they really do a fantastic job and make some amazing coffee. Periodt.

Super great coffee roaster and cafe! Lovely space with nice big old windows, extremely friendly staff, awesome coffee and good selection of treats in a sweet neighborhood. Love it.

Great coffee joint. Feels like a big part of the neighborhood. Coffee experts help you decide on what to get and are as friendly as can be.Parking: If it’s busy it can be hard to find a street spot.

I came to Albuquerque for a two week stay and tried at least five coffee shops, and I can confidently say that Castle Coffee is the BEST cafe in ABQ. The drinks are delicious and creamy; I ordered iced vanilla latte and my boyfriend had a hot biscochito latte. Both were absolutely PHENOMENAL. Also the service is wonderful-- the barista who made your drink brings the drink to you by hand! the environment is also so welcoming and friendly. I seriously can't recommend this place enough.

So happy I found this place during a business trip. They made my special order promptly, correctly, and with a smile. The vibe is cozy and chill, and I really wanted to hang out instead of taking my coffee to go. The next day when I stopped by again, they were closed (Sunday) but Josh saw me at the door, came out to say hello, and referred me to a great place nearby. I highly recommend Castle Coffee, and will go out of my way to stop by again any time I'm in the area.
Excellent coffee. Excellent service. Excellent baristas!! Just moved here, stopped in for a warm beverage. Would go every day if I could!

Cute place downtown. One of the best cups of coffee in ABQ. Cortado is out of this world. The people are very kind as well.

My favorite coffee shop in Albuquerque! I continually say this but castle coffee is everything you could hope for in a coffee shop. The coffee is roasted just right and there is always care when the drinks are made. What really makes this my favorite coffee shop is the service and care that the employees have for their customers. Their customer service can't be beat! There is usually seating for about 20 inside and it is definitely worth stopping in before going to the growers market on a Saturday morning! TLDR: skip little bear coffee and come to castle you won't regret it!

Was passing through town and looking for a good cup of coffee before I hit the road again, so swung by here after hearing some good things on Reddit. Both people working were super friendly and welcoming (despite me stopping in right as they opened) and got a truly delicious americano that made the start of my 8 hour drive much more bearable. Also picked up an awesome plant based doughnut as well. Def stop by!
