Excellent little coffee shop that we stopped in at while we were leaving town. It is a little small, but has an upstairs with a couch and a few chairs - and the downstairs has some seating too. They have some amazing candles to buy and t shirts as well. The coffee was amazing! It was excellently brewed and had just enough sweetness to it. Will definitely be back! read more

We were excited to try this place as it got decent reviews and it was located within the heart of the little village of Cloudcroft. I ordered the pumpkin spice latte and my fiancée ordered the hot shot both with oat milk. We were both pretty disappointed in the lack of flavor for both, even after we went back and had the barista add 2 extra pumps of syrup. Not sure what went wrong but ultimately we tossed them both and picked a different spot. The syrups they use are the natural Monin brand which are usually pretty light, so maybe it was the syrups or the way they were mixed. We probably won't be back as we were pretty sad about both drinks just being not up to par. read more

The second day I got a Hot Shot Iced Latte, which has vanilla bean, oak barrel (yes, you read that correctly), and caramel drizzle; so so SO good and different!

When we walked in, all 3 of the employees were sitting down. The employees were not very friendly or welcoming, it felt like we had inconvenienced them. The inside is very tiny, so we drank our drinks outside. The coffee and tea came out fast which was the only good thing about this place. I had the lavender latte and it was not very good; no flavor at all and was like drinking just milk with a hint of coffee. read more

I stopped in here for a jolt of java before our hike around the Osha trail. I walked in late Sunday morning, just before the big rush that created a long line. My friend was getting impatient, but got her coffee. I ordered a Mountain latte with almond milk since the shop was out of skim milk. The drink tasted surprisingly smooth. This is a small place across from the Baptist Church on Burro street, and seating is limited. Even the outdoor seating is limited to one table and two chairs. We were a group of three. Free wifi, too. Just ask for the password. No dogs allowed inside except service dogs. It was National Coffee Day, and all coffee drinks were an additional 15% off. read more

We went to Cloudcroft for a get away vacation. I figured I was going to drink cheap home brewed coffee the full trip, but then we found this gem. Black Bear coffee is amazing! They have a menu of coffee's and Tea's. The place was small but had plenty of additional space upstairs. I tried their chai tea and a latte. Both I would get again but the chai was amazing. The brewista's were friendly and would help costumers pick the right order. Cost was way better than Starbucks. Wish they had one in Texas. read more

First off, I was tempted to give them, I dunno, maybe 2 stars for false advertising. There are in fact no bears inside the coffee shop. Black or otherwise. I even checked upstairs to no avail. Unless you count the logo, so I guess I'll give them a pass....because the coffee is so delish. There's no where else in Cloudcroft or nearby Alamogordo that rivals it. Best latte? Easily the Hot Shot, a unique drink that uses oak barrel. Best drip coffee? Peru, followed closely by Java. read more

Neat little place to grab a coffee or tea on the go. It's a shop in a coffee trailer, not a…read morebuilding. They serve coffees both hot and cold, and slightly frozen, and teas. The man in the trailer, he was super nice and full of smiles. The Latte my wife got she said was really good. The tea I had was good, it was actually a straight black tea and not some odd floral tea mix. I was glad to taste that. Prices are bit steeper than the building locations, but this supports a local business and I'm always good with paying extra to help the small local businesses. Great place, check it out.

Great place to grab a quick coffee or quick refreshment. The service was fast and very friendly!…read more They offer various specialty coffee drinks, refreshing lemonades, Italian cream sodas, iced teas, and smoothies. They have kolaches and breakfast sandwiches that are sure to keep hunger at bay. They also have ice cream. The Strawberry Italian Cream Soda my daughter had was delicious and age loved the natural strawberry flavor. I had the John Wayne and although it was a small size and came iced, it was very good. I love the coffee they use, very smooth with great flavor. The Kolaches were warm and delicious. As a local, I definitely found my go-to coffee spot.

Tons of saltwater taffy and candy from way back in the day. There is homemade fudge and different types of candied apples. I tried the fudge and thought it was OK but I'm not that much of a candy eater. I did enjoy the ice cream and thought it was really good. We got a bottle of Sasparilla for our daughter as a present. Sadly, she was not with us, but that's just more ice cream for me.

As a traveler from out of state accompanied by two trained service dogs, I was shocked by the…read moretreatment we received at Winary Bistro. The manager incorrectly stated that service dogs must wear a vest to be recognized as service animals and demanded that we provide a "service animal certificate." We were then told that such certificates were not valid and that service animals must be registered in New Mexico before being allowed into the restaurant. None of these statements are consistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Service dogs are not required to wear vests, carry certificates, or be registered with any state in order to access public accommodations. It is deeply concerning that a manager responsible for serving the public appears to have such a poor understanding of federal disability law. The experience was embarrassing, discriminatory, and completely unnecessary. I have traveled extensively throughout the United States with my service dogs and have never been treated this way. I strongly encourage management to educate staff on ADA requirements before another customer is subjected to the same treatment. Until then, I cannot recommend this establishment to anyone who relies on a service animal.
