Charlie's Spic & Span Bakery & Café

Doughnuts were absolutely delicious. Service was quick and polite. I'll definitely will be stopping in again.

We were on vacation and checking out Google Maps for places to eat. The menu looked like it had something for everyone so we gave it a go.

When we got there at almost lunch on a Saturday there was a wait. We received a beeper. The wait, surprisingly was only 15 minutes.

Along with a huge diverse menu, they serve Starbucks coffee, fresh baked goods (donuts, small cheesecakes, and other delights) as well as bags of nice size fresh pressed and cooked tortillas. Some folks came in just for the coffee, baked good and tortillas.

Our waiter was Taylor (if the receipt is correct.) He was most helpful and answered all of our questions about the menu. Service here was prompt. We did have bit of trouble finding him for the bill but I think it was because that place was packed. Start (with wait time) to finish was just about an hour. Cash payment for the bill gave us a lower price than using a credit card.

We ordered a chicken fajita taco salad and a chicken/cheese burrito. The taco salad came with salsa which was too spicy for me so I skipped it. The salad had enough flavor. No skimping on the toppings. I would have to say this is one of the best fajita taco salads I have ever had and if we lived closer than 1,000 miles away I'd be in big trouble because I would eat here all the time.

My husband's burrito was tasty but a little too spicy for me.

We ordered what they call an eclair - it's basically a Long John with vanilla pudding on the inside and topped with chocolate frosting for $9. Some call it a Bismark (generally round) and the inside Bavarian cream. I did ask if the inside was homemade there. Yes, it is. We did not eat it there but waited until our hotel. We shared it. It was soft, delicious and that cream....yes I can tell it's homemade.

If we are ever in the area again I would stop here.

P.S. The atmosphere got a knock off because it is noisy and not many places to sit to wait for a table.

Charming place. Good atmosphere. Excellent service. Everyone works hard. So why the 2 stars?? Meal was rellenos with eggs. Lots of sauce and food but it was more salty than flavorful. Eggs were runny too. I should gave specified medium but I was never asked. Ton of breading on the rellenos and I needed a sharp knife to cut it. But to be fair, we had come from Santa Fe , which few places can compete with. Charlies would be fine for a regular breakfast or if is you were ok with salt dominating all flavors. If you are looking for authentic Mexican sauce you will be disappointed. Also the peppers and hash browns are cooked but not browned to any degree of crispiness. This breakfast with coffee custard $20 each too.

This place is amazing. All the food is awesome. Our favorite is the cheese enchiladas with the green sauce. We have to eat here at least three times every time we come visit.

Very nice place!

This place is awesome! Huge, food-hall style dining area was packed when I arrived, but they still had a seat for me. Fresh tortillas being made. Amazing display case with donuts, jelly rolls, cinnamon rolls, and more. Carne avocado skillet was delicious. I will definitely return the next time I'm in New Mexico!
