Very friendly folks. The iced latte was perfect, with a good consistency and a bit of espresso bite. We had the cinnamon rolls, and they were yummy. The dough was textured, but not thick at all, nice and light. Just enough icing to cover the top, but not thick, shocking one's teeth with that "too sweet" feel. A generous spread of flavorful powdered cinnamon topped it off. I consider this roll a thoroughly enjoyable treat. The cafe has a great coffee house ambiance. Good music playing softly. Books to read. Comfy couch. A big board where locals can post their wares and businesses, so it has a good community feel. There's kid art for us to enjoy, and a place for kids to play. How great is that, parents? All the patrons seemed happy coming in and going out. I will be back. read more

Nice, cozy little place for coffee and a breakfast sandwich. They have sourdough, a personal favorite, and a wide variety of coffee selections. I'll be back. read more

Service was pretty slow. Food was good, but nothing to write home about. A tad small for the price paid. The interior could definitely use some help. ‍ read more

This place is a little hidden gem! While the exterior is nothing special, the inside is surprisingly big with a few games, books and an area for kids to play. Has tables and more casual chairs as well, great for a coffee date! The blended caramel macchiato was delicious! Bagel sandwich was good, nothing too special. Not pictured is the apple nachos which were so tasty! Service was nice and welcoming too! read more

Service was great and had a cool unique atmosphere. My son ordered a strawberry smoothie and he said it was delicious. However, the rest of my family thought the coffee drinks were just ok. read more

Recommend this local spot to fellow tired moms, to students, for coworker outings, and for friend meetups. Perhaps even a fun Coffee date! Great layout and areas to play boardgames, do work on a laptop, read, chat with others. Very kid friendly with the best cake pops and an entire play area allowing moms and dads to actually finish their coffee while it is warm. Employees have always been very sweet and helpful to my family. I'm unsure what the bad reviews are about because I never saw bad service here. In fact I've witnessed staff at Mad Coffee go above and beyond for customers. Ordering and wait time has been slow at times. Coffee and teas are good. I saw huge bags of only organic coffee, if that matters to you. I appreciated the variety of alternative milks available. I have sweet tooth but beverages can be too sugary sometimes so you may want to ask them to go light on sweeteners. Still good. I recommend the best chai in the city. It tastes amazing and much like a London Fog. Matcha is good too. I haven't had a sandwich yet but observed others eating and it looked like nice light fare. read more

Excellent coffee and delicious sandwich! I had the turkey, cranberry, cream cheese on gluten free bread!!! They were cautious with my sandwich prep because I am gluten free for medical reasons, and I really appreciate the care they took! Great place too! Nice conversation area, plenty of seating, and nice music. read more

this is a great little coffee shop and has a nice selection of sandwiches and breakfast goodies. there is a nice nook with comfy couches and chairs, books to borrow, and some tables and chairs for enjoying your lunch. read more

Stopped in while visiting a friend in the area. I love trying new coffee places and I was excited to stumble upon this place. It was mostly shut down because of COVID, so there was one worker. He was very nice, answered our questions, and we did it all from an ordering station right inside the door. I ordered a white chocolate caramel frappe. The prices were great for the sizes you get. It was sweet & lasted forever. Overall, pleased with my experience and the fun decor. I would go back if I'm traveling through the area. read more

Loved getting the green king but seems like every barista has their own ingredient list. I liked the tangy bitter taste but this time it was nothing but banana. read more

Hello my new fav. Wasn't having the best day ever, and desperately needed coffee. I hadn't been to this place yet so I figured why not? I am so glad I did. I had a caramel macchiato, small. Small what was I thinking?!? I should have gotten the biggest size they had! The temp was perfect, it was in a travel cup, but I could tell, the foam was perfect, it tasted perfect, it was...perfect. It actually made my day so much better. Service was great. Staff was wonderful. Food looked yummy, I will have to try it next time. Thanks Mad Coffee, you make some mad good coffee. read more

Kasey, great smiling face that was very welcoming to this Weary Traveler. I ordered the 16 ounce Pumpkin Spiced Latte with the suggested whip and Carmel drizzle. The drink was hot and deliciously flavored. The Carmel drizzle and whip was a great addition. I also ordered the breakfast sandwich. I was a little picky with the order. Open faced on an everything bagel and NO avocado, because by now, all y'all know I am allergic. Lol. The sandwich included the following; bacon, spinach, cheese, egg, tomatoe, and a smear of mayo. This was delicious and hit the spot! Perfect spot for coffee and a snack in a relaxing atmosphere . Make sure to stop by and support a local coffee shop! read more

We backtracked to get Mad Coffee, this place is closer to the Space Museum so we had to drive back. It was ok. I got a matcha latte - they didn't ask how I wanted it and found out later that they make it sweet. I prefer unsweetened. I think they should ask before making it sweet! I did finish it still. B. got an espresso so he could continue driving. Got a cup of water too for the long drive. Worth a stop if in the area. read more

We go there after shopping to relax and have coffee. There's always great music playing, a choice of multiple seating areas and a nice playing section for kids. My husband is addicted to the breakfast sandwich. I love the organic coffee they have. Their staff is always friendly and courteous. Nice atmosphere to wind down. read more

It was a recent first visit at this new location I ordered the latte: 16oz. lukewarm milk, ONE shot espresso. Isn't 2 shots the standard? The flavor of the espresso was stale. I did not finish the cow's milk. After I tasted this latte I wanted my tip back. The service was average. In the morning rush ( before 9 AM ) I was third, and not there long. If it were my coffee shop I would have the carpet cleaned and a better air filter. The space had a musty fragrance. There was no coffee shop music to invite you in. While waiting for my beverage I noticed a play area for kids. I liked the space for readers. read more

Not what it used to be (at other location). My coffee was luke warm. Atmosphere is uncomfortable. Coffee fixing table is terrible. No more sugar in the raw, the only creamer available is garbage powdered creamer. No prices on the menu, no coffee on the menu. And the older lady who chased away the helpful employee, to give me the creamer I had to ask for, had a look on her face that made me feel like an imposition. Well, maybe that's my assumption, but she certainly didn't do anything to make me feel welcome. And I got half n half...the whole reason I go to shops like this is because I like MILK in my coffee...R.I.P mad coffee, was once my fav **Update: wonderful apology from the owner. Defended themselves and attacked my complaints. Whatever happened to the customer is always right? Hard to believe your staff is always characteristically friendly with a hostile reply from the owner. ****And for the record, There were no prices on the menu when I went. There was no sugar in the raw when I went. @** And what, nothing to say about serving room temp coffee?! Who wants to pay for warm coffee? Its mad! Your business IS coffee, you failed to provide it satisfactory and then attacked a customer who complained about. What happens when we continue, as consumers, to support these business practices? read more

Strangely child oriented for a coffee shop. Not the cool hangout spot I want in a coffee shop.

This rating is just based on the coffee, not the service, but here's the bottom line: I am picky about coffee; my husband is not. We both threw ours out after a few sips. read more

We picked up coffee there this morning at 9:29 am and should of tasted it before we left. We got on the highway headed to Santa Rosa before we tasted the coffee. I had an Americano and It was absolutely the worst coffee that I have bought. My wife's Latte didn't even have a coffee taste. The coffee shop was also dirty! How can this one be the best coffee shop in town? read more

Loved my experience at Mad Coffee this morning! The owners' daughter/granddaughter was running around helping out and was such a ray of joy in my day. Coffee is pretty good - a little weak but the flavor offerings are endless! Would recommend to anyone heading through Alamogordo. read more

This review is for the location on 10th. The bagels and sandwiches are great. I also love the kid area. I have given the coffee and other drinks so many chances but it is so bad. And the chai is not good. Service is hit or miss there's one older lady that is such a spaz and is a mess. The prices also are always different every time I go. Everything is so overpriced. read more

The best! We live out of town and my husband is a huge coffee snob and hates any coffee but our local coffee shop. We tried mad coffee and he gave it 5 stars which means it has to be amazing!! The customer service is also top notch. read more

When they say they have the best chai in town, they mean it. It's rich and flavorful. I don't drink coffee so I can't speak to that, but I'm giving them 5 stars for their fun atmosphere and delicious chai lattes. read more

Just moved to the area. I love to hit up local coffee shops and get a dose of caffeine. Usually prefer to go to locals places over a big chain place. This place brews a decent cup. Definitely better than what you could get at a gas station. Plus they have a pretty laidback vibe and some art work on the walls. I know some people have complained about it in other reviews, but I think it's worth a stop. Keep an open mind, and you might just enjoy it. They also have ice cream here if you're craving something cold and sweet! read more

Yum. Great service. Great coffee!! Never liked Chai. But yummmmmmm. They have a great salad. Their coffee is so rich. I love it here. Gluten free pastries. Everything I want from a coffee shop without that long line. read more

OMG. 3 words. Local Art. Cozy. Unique. And the coffee is excellent. It feels like you're walking into a really cool living space with some fabulous art. They feature art from local artists in the area and they have free WiFi. If you're looking for an interesting place to grab a good cup of coffee along with some snacks or smoothies, this is definitely the place to go. read more

Cute cafe with yummy fresh juice! The customer service was great. I will be back if I'm ever in town.

Great coffee , reasonable prices and such a relaxed environment. If you're in rush this place probably isn't the right one to stop by and get coffee. The wait was around 10 min. Nothing I could complain about just a heads up for those that are wondering. read more

Big fan of their turkey sandwich, it's Thanksgiving on bread. The croissanwich is good too. Their selection of juice blends and fruit smoothies is exceptional though I prefer to get a frappe every time I stop by. I also love me some chai tea. A recently redesigned layout makes for comfortable seating. Love the artwork. Great service for a small operation. I'm hoping to win this season's raffle so I can get some free espressos too. read more

Worst coffee/frap I've ever had. Customer services is amazing. Decor is amazing. The whole shop has a welcoming vibe. For that I will give an extra star, but the coffee alone was absolutely terrible. The others we went with were pretty disappointed as well. Probably will only be back to try to ice cream and might update this review if that is a breakthrough. Coffee products though never again. read more

Came to visit Alamogordo for the day, so I came in and decided to order the turkey sandwich and the iced matcha drink, and the drink was the far best I had ever had! Great service! read more

A hidden gem in New Mexico! This would be my local spot if I lived here. Sweet people and fantastic selection of healthy juices, smoothies, and great coffee. Food is great with all healthy, wholesome ingredients. Very reasonable prices. The inside is an awesome space to relax, hangout, and do work. Well decorated and comfortable (huge sectional, lounge chairs) with lots of local art. Highly recommend! read more

Amazing coffee! Definitely my favorite spot in town. I highly recommend their cold brew or chi latte, soooo good and great environment!

Really cool place and location! We enjoyed our coffee and the time spent relaxing on the porch savoring the wonderful view toward White Sands! read more

Staff is friendly! Quirky little place with great coffee and snacks. Definitely 5 star matcha latte! Reason for the 4 stars: the food items are a bit over priced. read more
