    No drive thru, HOWEVER very kid friendly. The owner is so sweet and helpful, very kind to my kids and lets them play on the small stage there. They make the best chaga-chino in the valley in my opinion and the breakfast items have several vegan options. Being connected to the tattoo shop is a nice perk too when having ink done.

    I ordered the Get That Breakfast sandwich on a croissant and a drink that had some type of chai in it, but they don't have a chai latte. The breakfast sandwich was hot, tasty and made quickly. I recommend it. of note, they have a nice and clean bathroom.

    Iced Chaggachino with espresso and coconut milk

    Great coffee, the best vibes, and tasty food! My husband and I love this place! It's perfect for if you need plant based options and basic options. The iced Chaggachino with espresso and coconut milk is delicious. I love the vegan breakfast sandwich, the tater tot bowl, and the vegan bomb Parmesan chickun sandwich but I would request it cut in half. Murphy the owner is a wonderful guy. Make sure to get a royalty card, the rewards are wicked. Pretty cool that it's attached to a tattoo shop and they have live music. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Mesa!

    I absolutely love this place. I come here whenever I visit Mesa. The staff is incredible. The food is fantastic. Great vegetarian and vegan options. And don't forget to try the chagaccino and Buddha Bing protein shake. I have yet to try something here i don't like.

    This is our second time visiting Buddha Brew. It's in the same space as a tattoo parlor and has a little stage. It's clean, has lots of seating, and good music. The bathrooms are also very clean. We ordered the vegan spinach frittata, eggs 2 see, vegan tot bowl, fruit bowl, and an earl gray iced tea. The food and drinks are fantastic and tasty. I also love that they have a lot of vegan options. When we first got our order they messed up and gave us non-vegan food, but we're quick to correct it. My kids ate all their food and asked for more. I would order the tot bowl, frittata, and fruit again. The reason I only did 4 stars is because the portions are TINY for the price you pay. We left pretty hungry, and did not order more because of the cost. Although I would go here again, I would make sure I'm not starving.

    New to the area and looking for something fast and yummy for breakfast and pulled out the handy Yelp app and found Buddha's Brew Coffee Café, checked out the menu and off I went! I knew what I wanted when I got there so I placed an order for Get That Breakfast Sandwich and medium latte. This breakfast sandwich was just what I was craving. It was one egg on a bagel with hatch green chili, turkey, pepper jack cheese and avocado spread. So dang good and filling. The latte was great too! Happy to have wondered into Buddha's and look forward to coming back!

    This is a very unique space, it combines a tattoo parlor on one side and cafe on the other. Cool art through the space, small stage for musical talent and great food a beverage menu. I'm not vegan and had the owner make me a vegan breakfast sandwich which was amazing. Give them a go, great place!

    420 Matcha Latte
    Ali B.

    Such a cool coffee shop! I've tried a ton of coffee shops in the valley and was so excited to finally come here! It is cute, I love the set up and it looks like they do live music too. Also you can see into the tattoo shop which is cool haha. I got the 420 matcha hot which is a hemp milk matcha with chocolate. It was really good! Perfect amount of each flavor. The food looked good too, they have a bunch of vegan options! Super sweet baristas too. Would definitely come back again!

    Lavender Levender Honey Iced Latte

    I love this coffee shop! The lavender honey latte is fire, breakfast burritos are the bomb! Service is excellent! And the vibe is chill! Definitely coming back often!

I'd been meaning to try this location after seeing a few of my fellow Yelper friends review this place. Just like they said, this place did not disappoint! Serving up quality diner food with friendly service, classic hits, and blast from the past decor. What We Ordered: - Steak & Eggs: Under $20?! Count me in! Seasoned well and cooked perfectly to order for both the over easy eggs and medium rare steak. Breakfast perfection! - Patty Melt: My boyfriend said it was delicious, and the small bite I tried was great. You can tell they season their burger patties. Honestly, we both left very impressed as all the food was seasoned well and cooked beautifully. Who says diner food can't be done well?! Nana Dee's has set the standard for diner food!

Lovely, well-kept and bright American Diner experience with vibrant decor to keep your eyes busy while you have a short wait for your food.

We arrived for breakfast and the place was packed. Even so, we were seated within a few minutes. Menus were brought for us to peruse. For a starter we both had a large glass of cranberry juice. $3. Emphasis should be on the word large, as in most places you would get a small glass for the same price. Companion ordered the "Fresh Start", which is a big bowl of oatmeal which comes with cranberries, raisins, walnuts, brown sugar, and milk ($6). Companion was unable to finish it all. For myself, I had the Hawaiian omelet which had ham, bacon, pineapple, and mozzarella cheese. While I must admit I have never before had an omelet with these ingredients, it was delicious and big. I could not finish it all. The coffee was bottomless and the service was excellent. Unlike many other places that serve breakfast, we were made to feel truly at home, with friendly people all around. We will be going back again and again, possibly for lunch next time. This is a new favorite place to eat for us. Sanitation was good and food came out quickly. 5 stars.

We had to wait a bit to get seated. I decided to try their biscuit and gravy with bacon and 2 eggs over easy. The bacon was kinda chewy with unrendered fat which was a turnoff. Even bigger disappointment was the biscuits and gravy. The gravy tasted so odd and off putting and the biscuits were huge but very dry and fell apart. Had a bite of hubby's French toast and it was the worst I've ever had. If they weren't so busy I probably would have mentioned something to the server but really wasn't in the mood. Still love the theme of this restaurant but the food was a major letdown today. Service was not the greatest probably due to how busy it was.

Since 2016, this non-profit diner has been directly supporting homebound cancer patients through sponsored meals. The menu is deep, and the food is incredible!

I ordered the chilaquiles which were a delightful offering of crispy tortilla chips covered in earthy red chili, topped with a velvety poached egg, on a bed of hearty pinto beans that had a hint of cumin, all which was drizzled with a rich crema and crumbled queso fresco. My dad had the Rueben and he said it was in his top-three he's ever had!

We finally decided to try the diner, and oh my goodness--this is no substandard food kitchen. This is top-notch food at reasonable prices and for a great cause. You can't go wrong! We arrived on a Sunday at their new location, which is super nice, VW bus and all. :) While relatively small, it is many times larger than their old location around the corner. You can sit inside at a table, at the bar, or at one of the few patio tables on a nice day. We sat inside for this first visit, and a friendly server took our order. We chose to order from the breakfast menu, and I ordered The Camper: Crispy double-dipped fried chicken thigh smothered in savory gravy and topped with cheese, three slices of Nueske's peppered bacon, and an over-easy egg, served on a housemade butter biscuit. My wife ordered the CSA Scramble: Farm-fresh veggies from Crooked Sky Farms CSA basket scrambled with three eggs, served with fruit, sliced tomato, and 9-grain toast. Needless to say, we were both impressed. The Camper was absolutely perfect. I would not change a thing. The gravy was just special, and there was so much food, I took some home. My wife's dish was fresh and perfect for what she was looking for. Do consider donating to this worthy cause. We chose to, and you can even donate right on your bill so that it goes right on your credit card if you so choose. But even if you just pay for your meal, you are helping out, which is so great about eating at this place. Do yourself a favor and stop in to see the friendly people at The Joy Bus Diner!

Just 2 minutes from the ALB airport, this spot hits exactly how you need it to hit when you're either coming off a flight or heading into one: easy, classic, no-frills comfort. I went with the corned beef hash + pancakes breakfast, and it delivered that old-school diner energy. The hash was hearty and filling, eggs cooked just right, and the pancakes? Soft, golden, and exactly what you expect--nothing fancy, just solid. But let's be clear... the real reason you come here is the pie. Village Inn doesn't play about their pies, and the banana cream pie is the headline act. Light, creamy, not overly sweet, topped with whipped cream and just enough texture to make every bite feel intentional. For under $20 a pie, it feels like one of those rare "still worth it" moments in today's food scene. Yes--it's a chain. But this location in Albuquerque shows up like it understands the assignment: quick service, consistent quality, and that nostalgic diner comfort that doesn't try too hard. DISCOVERY SCORE: * Food: * Service: * Value: * Must-Try Factor (Banana Cream Pie): Would I come back? For the pie alone? Absolutely.
