We stopped here for lunch one day and I discovered that the food was very typical latino food, and very delicious! I introduced my friends to a couple of appetizers that I love.

During my order, the staff were kind and patient. I decided on the turkey BLT crepe with berry hibiscus tea. The meal was delicious! On my way out, I bought a pastry for the road. I was content, happy, and ready to face the heat.

If you're tired of eating NM food check out this place. It can get a little crowded but try and get a window seat for people watching. I'd go with a ham and cheese or Nutella as the club had way too much ranch.

Walking around Santa Fe in mid January & was super cold. Popped in here for a quick cup of coffee to warm up. Great coffee but terrible customer service. I asked the girl at the counter what she would recommend for a sweet coffee & she said "I don't know. I don't like coffee" and gave no suggestions. My friends husband was asking what their cold offerings were and the same girl said "we can just give you a cold coffee."

Delectable! Order anything from the menu and it will be amazing. Pro-tip: get a fried egg on top of the spinach & mushroom crepe. So good! Excellent espresso drinks also :)

Loved this place last summer! Now in January stopped in twice, Saturday 10:15 am and Sunday 9:30 am and no one can work the espresso machine. Disappointing!

I don't think what I have to say will add more than what has already been said. The coffee did the trick and service was kind.

Had the masala chai. Hubs had the crepe. Owner is very into the business and we like supporting local business. A must in Santa Fe

We arrived before 5 pm Sunday November 24 2019. The server kicked us out at 5:10. Saying the crepe machine was now turned off. Prior to this the server ignored us as he discussed his many hours of work that day with a customer in front of us. We watched as that customers food was served. And as the server made a finished a coffee drink. When if at last turned his attention to us, he said we're closed. A full hour before posted closing time. The customer service is awful.

They have realllyyy good crepes! Would have given it 5 stars on taste of food and presentation alone, but the service has always been inconsistent when I've come (I've been 4 times in the past year) The affogato with their half and half cream gelato is to die for, and literally every crepe I've tried has been fantastic. I've had the breakfast one with ham, egg, and bechamel, the pulled chicken and green Chile one, and today I got the spinach and mushroom. I'd definitely recommend sharing it unless you have a big appetite because these crepes are the size of a burrito! Okay and here's a little more on the spinach and mushroom.... ! It's amazing. So, the mushrooms are not soggy at all but nicely browned and tender, the spinach is still green and not wilted down completely, the two cheeses they use (feta and gruyere? I believe) compliment the crepe very well. The bechamel sauce is a great addition to the crunchiness of the edges of the crepe. No complaints at all!!! As for the service, I already said it was inconsistent. I've always had to ask for silverware, and sometimes it's taken a while for them to notice I'm waiting to order. Everyone's been very nice though!
Crepes made to order right in front of you using fresh and masterfully curated ingredients. The salmon crepe and All Day Breakfast Burrito crepes were delicious. We topped it off with a sweet crepe and cappuccinos. Highly recommend!!

What a delightful surprise the Cafe Atalaya was for us during the week we spent in Santa Fe! It was right on the Plaza, and though my wife is not a strict vegans (and I am USUALLY a pescovegetarian) we love healthy options and their vegan Bushwhacker option caught my eye. It was so delicious, and Chef Greg Menke was so gracious, that we could not resist 2 more visits. And on our last visit, Greg generously surprised us with a caramel glazed fruit (vegan) crepe dessert that he crafted just for us! Needless to say, it was the perfect sendoff for a wonderful week. At such time as we return to Santa Fe, the Cafe will be a top priority!

Great food, fantastic service. The chef is genuinely happy to Be serving you his creations. Great coffee and atmosphere. Great WiFi for those road warriors too. Highly recommend.

All kinds of great gastronomical treats! Crepes, croissants, muffins, coffees and teas. Right on the plaza, just inside an indoor galleria of Shoppes to browse. Best mocha I've had in years and even a plain crepe was heavenly but I'd suggest including the choices of ingredients you can have. Busy but very quick service.

This place opened up not too long ago and I'm really happy that it did. Though, I had yet to try one of their sweet/dessert crepes; their savory alternatives proved themselves to be more than superb during my previous visits.
