    Land mark.....if you miss this you don't deserve to stop
    Scott L.

    First things First: Great Bathrooms Ok had to get that done, badly. Funky Funkability is the theme here: pair a nice wine with your pork rind burrito, speak to strange statues and read their runes, fuel up the car and check out the ripe avocados. Get WHATEVER you need before hitting the beach, the trail, or the road. It's here!

    This is such a charming store! They seem to have a little bit of everything! Food, beer, fishing supplies, gifts, convenience store items, school supplies etc... as well as a little sitting area for eating and snacking with friends. They have apparently been there over 100 years too. It's definitely worth a stop if you're driving by. It has a nostalgic and charming atmosphere. The staff were friendly too

    Green chile bacon breakfast burrito. Sublime

    Some of the best to go food I have ever had. We are staying near Abiquiu and had heard great things about this general store. They have a variety of burritos and different specials every day. The carne adovada burrito was the best I've had. The green chile beef and redshile chicharone were both delicious as well. One night we got the shepherds pie and baked ziti, delicious!! We are trying not to go every day because we have already gained 5 pounds.

    Driving in New Mexico this is a awesome General store. We stop here on our way to Pagosa Springs! The store has clean restrooms! And the store has some of the most interesting things to buy! Local goods! Art work and unique gifts! This place you'll find old school candies and toys! They have baked good and a cafe we haven't tried yet but food smells yummy.

    GEORGIA O'KEEFFE? Hang on I'll get to her. . . . YOU NEED HUNTING, CAMPING AND FISHING SUPPLIES? Well this is the place . . . THE ONLY PLACE! BODE'S GENERAL MERCHANDISE is the only store for 35 miles in any direction . . . and, in a couple of directions, it probably is even further than 35 miles! Remember those country stores in the movies with the OLD GUYS sitting around a fireplace or wood stove in rocking chairs "CHEWING & SPITTING" and "SPINNING YARNS?" I swear they filmed all those scenes at Bode's! Walk in any day of the week (oh, wait, I think they are closed on Sundays!) and you'll find those guys spinning fishing & hunting stories from Abiquiu Lake, or the mountains around Chama - both just a few miles up the road. Bode's sells just about a little of everything you could possibly want and have been doing so since 1919. AN ORIGINAL STORE. Right out of the movies. A fun place to explore. A place to spin yarns. Not your usual tourist trap, but a real Northern New Mexico COUNTRY STORE that serves the residents of the small community of Abiquiu and surrounding farms & ranches. (My favorite T-Shirt is from Bode's. You can order them online.) Plus they have fishing, camping and hunting supplies for the outdoorsmen headed into the GREAT WILDERNESS OF NORTHERN NEW MEXICO. And . . . . . just so you don't get the idea that this place is TOTALLY REMOTE, and who in the world would EVER want to stop or shop here . . . . this little merchantile is directly ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE HOME OF ONE OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST ARTISTS: GEORGIA O'KEEFFE. Up on the hill above Bode's, facing the Plaza, was her principal residence. She did have a small summer home up the road about 13 miles, but the home across from Bode's, was where she spent most of her time. Bode's is in God's Country . . . or at least it was Georgia O'Keeffe's country. Just look at her landscape paintings . . . then step out of the door at Bode's and look around . . . . they are one in the same. www.bodes.com STOP AND SIT A SPELL!

    Green Chile Cheeseburger.  No I am not sharing.

    I saw Bode's on the TV program with George Motz, like a lot of people who have written reviews. I love really great burgers, especially those that have not been fancied up with kale fed organic fat-free beef and toppings that cost more than the meat. We called ahead to be sure they were open because the previous day we called Sugar's Barbecue and Burgers in Velarde and apparently they are seasonal, since no one answered the phone all day. Four of us made the reasonable drive from Santa Fe and it was worth it. This was a great burger. As others have mentioned the ordering process is a little strange. You go to the window in the back and place your order. The guy who waited on us was very helpful and they are flexible on how you get your burger. He gives you a slip or two (separate one for the local beer) that you take to the cashier towards the front and pay. Then you take your paid slip back to the food window and they make your order and deliver it to your table. Our green chile cheeseburgers were excellent, seasoned well with a very good grill crust. These are cooked on the flat top. The patty is 8 oz which is plenty big enough and is flattened somewhat so that it cooks better than larger thicker patties. You don't order a level of doneness, but the meat was juicy and flavorful. It is topped with plenty of plain, chopped green chiles. I really enjoyed this and would make the drive from Santa Fe again. It is nice that they serve the Monk's Ale and other beers from Abbey Beverage Company. The Monk's Ale was very good with my burger. I should probably award five stars, but would like to have another one or two to confirm consistency.

    Bode's is a good place to stop for a burger and snacks. It's a real old-time general store with everything from hats, shirts and beer to tools and groceries, utensils, postcards, Minnows (yes, bait!) and New Mexico memorabilia. There is even a gas station. It's a beautiful ride on Rt 84 and very near the Abiquiu Inn and Georgia O'Keefe's home and studio. It's actually between them and Abiquiu Lake. I had a fabulous Reuben sandwich and M had a green chili burger that was HOT! It's a simple menu but you'll be sure to find something you'll like. As long as your dog is on a leash, s/he is welcome.

    It's a very small but cute restaurant with a tv around the bar so if you want to watch football or…read moreany sporting event you can definitely see it here. The service was good but I feel like they can be more informative, especially to someone new in town. If you're not aware, the burgers do not come with fries. You must order them separately. One thing the server did not mention. All she asked was, fries or onion rings? Now, I do understand we could read the menu, which we did, but most hamburger joints come with a side of fries especially at these prices!!! You're paying between $13-18 a burger, it should come with a side of fries! Now what she also failed to tell us was the amount of French fries that come when you order them. It's a large basket that could be shared between 2-3 people. We ordered three fries plus 1 onion ring. We paid $16.50 for three fries and barely ate through one whole basket! The fries seemed fresh cut but seemed like they had this weird film on the outside. Not sure if it's their oil, or if they didn't fry it at a high enough temperature. What we ordered: - bison burger (medium) : it came out burnt to a crisp. The initial bite wasn't bad but eating it more felt like you had a mouth full of ash. While I can appreciate a good charbroiled or grilled hamburger, it was overly done. Not to mention it was over cooked. There was no seasoning on top of the burnt flavor. It wasn't really edible. - old timer w/cheese (medium): add an additional charge for cheese! This too came out burnt! My daughter could only eat a little as it was too charbroiled/grilled. It too was over cooked and no where near medium. - green chili burger (medium): I had high hopes of this burger as it came with cheese and their infamous New Mexico Green chili! While my patty was not burnt, it was over cooked and it had zero to no seasoning! It came with a green chili mayo which was really good but it still didn't help with the seasoning! The burgers here seem fresh and the beef seems a good quality, but I still believe it's overpriced for what you get! I also understand times are hard and our economy is struggling with prices, but then they need to find other ways to cut prices down without sacrificing quality.

    Amazing burgers and fries. Great drink selection…read more Juan was awesome. Will definitely be back for more burgers.
