19 Best Bars in Santa Fe

“Julian and team were excellent! We were celebrating a birthday and were treated accordingly. Scallops were awesome (unique flavoring and quite rich). The lobster dish was also generous and very rich. The elk and flat steak looked delicious but I did not try any. I had not been to the Coyote Cafe in over 30 years; I will not wait that long to return. Highly recommend!“

“Thank You San Francisco Street Bar & Grill for an absolutely wonderful Thanksgiving Day meal!

San Francisco Street Bar & Grill was closed to the public Thanksgiving Day 2025 but they did offer a complete Thanksgiving meal for pick up ( see attached photo of offering ). Reserving the meal over the telephone was simple.

The order was fulfilled as promised and was very delicious. The turkey cooked to perfection and the stuffing was truly amazing. While those were my favorites all food was extremely wonderful and thoughtfully packaged to go with ease. The included pumpkin pie was from 'Chocolate Maven'. Loading Zone right on Don Gaspar by front door on corner of San Francisco St and Don Gaspar.

I hadn't been to San Francisco Street Bar & Grill since it relocated once again near it's original location downtown. The food was delivered hot. As I waited for chef, owner, and staff to pack up the order - I had a nice look around. The entire restaurant was immaculate and decorated for the holiday season. The bar was organized and very clean. They had placards about describing services for Christmas parties and holiday reservations. Art displayed on the walls available for sale and tastefully done.

I know a first class operation when I see one. San Francisco Street Bar & Grill is first class all around.

I want Thanksgiving dinner from San Francisco Street Bar & Grill to be a new tradition. I hope they continue to offer this service.

What a BREEZE!

(ps - after serving and sitting on stove top for nine hours, turkey was just as juicy and moist as as it was when entering the home! SO GOOD! )

THANK YOU SAN FRANCISCO STREET BAR & GRILL.“

“fabulous atmosphere! a hidden gem.“

“J-rod is the WORLDS GREATEST BARTENDER! He is a stallion amongst mules and all should bow to superior skills! He’s intuitive, cool AF and will get you Muddy! Overall just a master of his craft! Everyone else is superb as well! Recommend roots and leaves to anyone and everyone!“

“HIGHLY recommend this place. The staff is incredibly attentive and knowledgeable they treat you like they’ve known you forever the moment you walk in. You’ll never feel like a stranger here. Plus, they have great beers! I love stopping in whenever I’m in the area. Shout-out to KO and Lu, HANDS DOWN two of the best bartenders I’ve ever met!“

“Was good experience, food was on point“

“Live the cider best in nm“

“sorta the old school, "last of its kind here in SF"�this place“

“We had an early birthday dinner and the restaurant was lovely. All the food was very flavorful and we really enjoyed everything we ordered but especially the cocktails! The staff was excellent ?! And they gave me a free desert with a candle for my birthday.“

“Each item we enjoyed on the lunch and dinner menu was A-amazing. The attentive and well orchestrated staff was a delightful aspect as well.“

“Yes, loved the quaint and warm atmosphere. Bartender Daniel is the best. Knowledgeable and pleasant. Enjoyed my visit there immensely!!!“

“Really nice place attached to the Hotel Chimayo. Service was quick and friendly, the pizza was very very good, and we had a good time taking it easy. Was a bit overrun with a wedding party ordering a pile of crazy drinks, but Efren kept up with the crowd very well. During busy times it could be good to bring on another bartender, but we have no complaints and will be back next time we are in SF NM.“

“Visited the Albuquerque location, the service and atmosphere were exceptional. Just passing thru the area.... The beer was pretty darn good too....“

“Very chill and cozy. I like that there isn't music blaring. How quiet it is depends on your neighbors, but generally it's a good place to meet for a date so that you can actually talk. We had one drink (cocktails) and they were good. Service was generally good. I had to go to the bar to pay because I couldn't get their attention from the table, but that's not a big deal, we realized that we needed to leave rather quickly and the bartender was apologetic.“

“Always good music playing. Prices are reasonable for Santa Fe. Primarily a local joint but tourists who behave are welcome to spend their filthy lucre. Cash only. Watch your step. Sidewalk is trashed and the stairs are steep.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not remotely good for wheelchair access. My knee hurts after a few trips up and down the stairs.“

“Last Saturday night we celebrated my husband's 80th birthday. I called and spoke with Ricardo Gutierrez about our wish to make this a memorable event. He could not have been more helpful and pleasant to deal with, sending me sample menus and tolerating my changes and many questions. He and the staff went out of their way to make the dinner party a success - providing several shiny balloons proclaiming happy 80th birthday and even making 2 birthday cakes, which were very good by the way, one to eat there and one to take home. The price fix menu provided great selections and the food was very good and reasonably priced. A good time was had by all.“

“Excelente restaurante. ..muy rica comida y atención..y si gustan tiene los fines de semana se hacen bailes y se pone superior bien ...un agradable ambiente“

“We stayed at the Drury Inn and Suites during our visit to Santa Fe, NM this week. The primary hotel bar/restaurant at the Drury is Kitchen + Bar, which we visited twice. It’s a very nice space, modern and airy, and a well stocked bar. The staff is friendly and pour great drinks. The Santa Fe after Five was pretty darn good. The only food we had was a couple of tacos, the brisket with green chilis and the el pastor. Both were good, but we’d have to give the edge to the brisket taco, it was very good. We cannot vouch for anything else on the menu, what we had was nice.“

“A very rural but stylish place for breakfast/brunch !“
