As a coffee shop, it is a good place. However, as a restaurant, it was nearly terrible. The food was not very good. We ordered a steak torta and a steak fajita quesadilla. The quesadilla was ok, not well balanced considering the big pieces of barely cooked bell peppers, but at least the amount of filling was fine. The steak torta, however, was served cold and seemed like it had been sitting ready in the kitchen for a long time, considering its temperature and how mushy it was. The bread was mushy, and the chips served with the meal were also mushy. When I asked them to heat it up, it was reheated in the microwave, which is something hard to believe considering that even the most basic food places know that you do not heat bread in the microwave. For the price, it was definitely not worth it.

The service was also ok. It was not the friendliest place compared to other places we visited in Marfa, but it was ok. The lady in the kitchen was very nice when I asked to heat up the food though.

We were on a family trip to west Texas and stopped in for a bite to eat. We weren’t sure what to get and Juan was so kind and helpful and recommended the most delicious meal! Additionally, our drinks were exceptional. Because of Juan and his hospitality, and the delicious food, we will definitely be back!

Great place to telework, with huge outdoor patio space. Lots of local art on display and locally-made gifts sold like jewelry, lotions candles and books. I had an iced oat milk lavender latte.

Wonderful food, service, and atmosphere. Great history and contemporary options. Clearly patronized by both locals and tourists. What a treat!

Nice coffee shop and cafe in Marfa with great staff and food. In a hot day, their pet friendly back patio was nice and shady and we had iced coffee and tacos while we chatted with some visitors from The Netherlands. Staying the night in Marfa was well worth the 2 hour total detour on the way back home, as opposed to staying the night on I-10 as previously planned. The area is beautiful.

Very cool place to get coffee or a drink. The adjacent restaurant is very good. A little on the expensive side, but normal for Marfa.
