On a very hot August 2, 2026, I parked on the street in front of a building that shares space with…read moreKandels Street Sips. This place is located near the Odeon Theatre in Tucumcari, NM. I wanted iced coffee. Then I wanted iced tea. So what did I settle on? A 16 oz dirty soda called the Sweet Red Solution (cream soda, ice cream, cherry syrup, topped with whipped cream & a cherry). Lol. It was a delicious sweet treat to beat the heat. They sell lots of other drink items and snacks. I also requested a pup cup for my dog waiting in the air-conditioned Jeep. That set me back $8. Card and cash was accepted. Service was friendly. Check their hours before heading there. They currently are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Stopped in for a frosty beverage and wound up ordering a…read morepizza and getting some loose tea too. Walked in while out in the area visiting. A large open space with high ceilings. Several tables and chairs along with some booths. Walk up counter service was friendly and kind. I ordered a dirty soda to start and then got a wrap and a pizza to go, then found loose teas on the wall and needed some butterfly pea flower tea, so grabbed a large bag of it as well. My soda was made to order, old school style like the way they made them back before soda came in cans and bottles. It was refreshing and flavorful and hit the spot. The wrap and pizzas were both also made fresh to order. Both also were very good. A friendly, community oriented eatery that provides a safe space for every one, as well as eats and treats for visitors to enjoy while there. 4 Stars a great little business that is a community hub and worth your support 01319

Texas Toast with a burger patty, grilled onions, fries, cheese and (here is where it changes) a choice of white gravy, brown gravy, Red Sauce or Green Sauce. Also known as Horseshoes! I chose the red sauce and it was delicious. Perfectly medium Rare. My only complaint was the onions. When I hear "grilled onions" I think soft and caramelized. The onions I recieved didn't even seem to touch the pan. But it was still a delicious dish. The waitress was great! Wonderful sense of humor. Did everything she could to make us feel comfortable and happy. Well done! The diner was just that...a typical Route 66 Roadside Diner ... but elevated. I would definitely go again to try their breakfast and/or dinner. I would recommend this diner to anyone!

Lots of memorabilia to walk through and things that you could buy right now - dishes, clothes, vintage items. One large bathroom - roomy and clean with a super funny and relevant sign above the toilet. Welcomed into the place and asked if we were eating with them or was it take away. Eating In. Found the cafe part of the place stood and pondered the menu (pretty much same menu as posted in the pics) and decided what meats we each wanted on our 2 meat plate + 2 sides. Spicy sausage link with cheese, brisket, slaw and potato salad for him; ham and turkey meat for me with the beans (warned that they'd be talking later) and slaw. Each had a big slice of bread + butter and a sugar cookie. Drinks of lemonade and unsweetened tea were all you could drink and came as part of the meal. There are canned sodas and bottled Coca Cola for an extra price. I saw there was fresh coffee in the pot. All food was very delicious, fresh made, and served generous sized portions. We had so much leftovers we have a good start on tonight's dinner/supper. On the television was the Western/INSP channel with High Chaparral playing. Blast from the past. Great Wall art all over the place, and even outside on the "patio" area where there's cooking going on (spare ribs were smoking for tomorrow's customers). This looks to be a family run business with a friendly attitude. As the husband went to pay the owner-ess started to type in the credit card machine. My husband asked "Do you take cash" to which she replied "yes, we just do see it much." There ain't many a truer statement, everywhere we go it's typically the card. Husband tried to leave a tip and she wouldn't accept it. Just come on back again. I highly recommend this place as a stop over for a leisurely, friendly meal. As we left, the husband said "Nice ole folks ... Usually we have to pay for the cookie (home baked sugar cookie) and they gave it to us free as part of the meal."

Still has its traditional roadside interior, heavy wooden, kitschy, tourist destination vibe. We were greeted walking in and seated promptly. The hostess brought menus with her. We sat in the bar area the evening of out donner there. Our server was funny, upbeat and kind. She made our meal there enjoyable. A varied menu with a little bit of everything on it for all kinds of taste buds. After giving the menu a good look, I opted for their Chili Relenos with Hatch chilis. A nice serving with a pair of well prepared chilis, rice and beans with some diced tomato and lettuce. It was a good meal, the rellenos were done well, nice cheese stuffed, breaded and fried near perfect. All in all a good meal 4 Stars a solid choice in a town with limited options 01321

Goodies Go Last Bakery shares space with Carlson Coffee…read more The building they split time in is near the Blue Swallow Motel in Tucumcari, NM, on the original Route 66 Boulevard. It was shortly after 8:30 AM on August 3, 2026, when I walked in without my dog as I assumed she would not be welcomed. The parking lot layout is a bit awkward - maybe the lines need repainting, but there were plenty of spaces. A few patrons were sitting a various tables or booths when I walked in. The counter service was friendly, but their baked goods are absolute fire. The only item I requested reheated was the crustless quiche that came with green chile, cheddar, and bacon ($5.95). This savory item was moist and heavenly. I had to decelerate myself in eating it. Lol. When I got home later that day, I munched on my peanut butter cookie ($2.25). I am a huge peanut butter fan so this was my favorite item. Imprinted with a Zia symbol, the cookie had a curious balance of softness and a light crunch. For my daughters, I splurged a bit on Dubai chocolate truffles ($6.95 each). They were much richer than the girls anticipated, but I enjoyed the bites I had. So many other items I wanted to try if only I had more time and stomach capacity... I'm a fan.
