There it was.. a little place that didnt look like it was even real until you open the door. The owner is a nice older gal... (sorry i cant remember your nameee! :( ... ) she is a sweetie.. gave us a little insight on the town and how long she had lived there. i cant imagine how many people must pass by her place completely famished, as we were. the HO HO CAKE CAPITOL! she has every assortment of sweet treats oh my lord. and plenty variety of juice or anything you may like to drink.. lunchables. who doesnt enjoy cheese and crackers? especially while driving. THANK YOUUUU! we got our snacks and got back on the road. her place is like a oasis in a land barren of civilization and food... also, BIG on my list.. everything we got from her shop was fresh! not like some stores ive found in the middle of the city trying to save a buck and sell out dated stuffs. :) EXCELLENT! hope we get a chance to pass through again..

Yelp put "Bob's Super Market," but everyone 'round here knows it as Bob's Thriftway…read more It says so on the sign too. It's located within a plaza on the northwest side of town in Lovington, New Mexico. Plenty of free parking. If I didn't live 20 miles away, I would probably be here every day because I like to shop for produce fresh. I was only able to shop for non-perishable items, but the meat market seemed really good. The store was so clean and organized when I was there on November 22, 2024. For the most part, I was able to find all of the ingredients I needed for my part and Thanksgiving dinner plus a few other items. Really nice, fast cashier. The grocery baggers are fast too. Propane out front. Highly recommend.

RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4 PARKING Free street parking is available. LOCATION/AMBIANCE This small shop is located at the end of plaza near the northwest corner of Turner and Broadways Streets. There are a couple of great fashion boutiques (Il Cicerone & Dani Kai) next door I suggest you check out too. THE GRUB I posted their current menu to Yelp, but they seem to rotate other items because their Instagram displays other treats almost weekly. Also, when I entered this business into Yelp, I put it as a dessert shop and somehow "bubble tea" made it to their type of business, but they don't sell that. Lol. Lemonade $6.00 Syrup $1.00 Avocado Toast $6.00 Oreo Pop x 2 $5.00 Parfait $5.00 Right before we left, one of the young ladies told me to sample a pretzel. My two daughters and I somehow managed to share it. Fun treat, but my girls definitely preferred their Oreo pops. Lol. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB Kid sizes are not available. SERVICE Very nice & welcoming on our first visit ever on 2/8/2023. They got the avocado toast out for my daughter as fast as they could, but not without first asking her if she wanted everything on it (tomatoes, seasoning, etc.). MY FAVORITE PART... Everything we ordered was great, but their parfait was my go-to snack - healthy & delicious! Their Valentine backdrop in the window was also cute! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... I didn't have time to try everything, but it's definitely on my list for the future!

This past Saturday (3/9/2024), I tried Trinilov Island Cuisine…read more It's a food truck - technically a food trailer - out of Hobbs, NM. They were set up near my daughter's karate dojo fundraising event. The owner is a super sweet lady from Trinidad - the country located northeast of the coast of South America. She came to New Mexico Junior College to run on the cross country & track teams. Now she coaches there. Has a family here. And is a "boss babe." I thoroughly enjoyed the jerk chicken tacos. It was three tacos with very fresh toppings of cabbage, cilantro, onions, a jerk sauce that was only mildly spicy for me, and limes. The only drawback was a bone I found in one of my tacos. Other menu items included: Fried chicken ($13) Kids fried chicken ($6) Water, Pepsi, Coca-Cola or Sprite = $1 To find out where their next event will be, check out: https://www.facebook.com/TRINILOVislandcuisine?mibextid=LQQJ4d RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 5 | Price: 4

Mi Pueblito Meat Market is one of those places I have driven by in Lovington, NM, and never…read morestopped. This place is always busy, so finally, my daughter and I decided to check it out on our way back home on December 3, 2025. The major pitfall for me with this place was the lack of engagement by the staff. Sure, they smiled and nodded, but didn't initiate a conversation OR respond to me. The pros outweighed the cons: + meat market + reasonably priced + small, clean restaurant + cool mural near dining area + fresh produce + easy, free parking + cash or cards accepted They have excellent flan ($7.80). A bit pricey for a single serving, but it was so good. I also picked up a dozen eggs ($4.36), a large avocado ($2.07), and a Kuii Coconut drink ($2.55). The meats looked good. No issues there and y'all know I would tell you if there were. Lol.

It was a Saturday, so the shop was closed, but it caught my attention so I google it later when I had a chance. I read the menu, purchase options, and decided to give it a try. Ordering online for the first time can be a little challenging if you have special requests or modifications to the meal, so I went to the shop and spoke to them in person. Very friendly and helpful. I've only had my first week worth of meals and so far everything is good to very good. I haven't had anything that I felt I had to force myself to eat. I actually look forward to my next prepped meal every day. I did call and make minor changes to my plan to get more of the "very good" meals. My request was accepted so I'm really looking forward to next week. Prices are not bad at all. When you consider that you don't have to go shopping, no cooking, no cleaning, no wasted food...just heat and eat. The price of a prepped meal is about the same as a fast food meal, but so much healthier. I'm hoping this business continues to strive so that I can continue to eat healthy for a long time. I work 12 hours a night, 5-6 nights a week, year round. I don't have time to do all the dirty work. Life just got a little easier. Thanks to Food Matters! Thatjeepguy97

There were t-shirts and other items for sale on one side and refrigerated meals on the other. One entrance is for grab-and-go items. The other is for deliveries. THE GRUB Since my daughter had been sick, I decided to pop in for some quick meals as she has had me slaving away being a nurse which frankly I never had any desire to be. We tried three different lunches. On each individually-packed breakfast, lunch & or dinner are the nutritional benefits and ingredients. + buffalo chicken salad ($12.99) + pesto chicken pasta with sliced asparagus ($13.99)... there was an abundance of flavor! + shrimp tacos ($13.99) LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB No small kid's meals! However, this place is mainly catered to the adult palate... SERVICE I was helped by a mostly affable young lady on 2/1/2024. I would have liked more of a welcoming & explaining of what the place was about to be honest. Also, it was a bit awkward to be watched as I was putting my wallet away in my purse and proceeded out the door. Lol. MY FAVORITE PART... The buffalo chicken salad! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... The price! Just over $44 for 3 lunches. TIP Open Monday through Friday from 10 AM - 6 PM.

*** enjoy pan dulce with your coffee in this super cute Hobbs, New Mexico-based Mexican café ***…read more The Coffee Shop had its grand opening a couple of days ago in Hobbs, NM. This has been a long time coming! I absolutely love how small and quaint this place is at the Hobbs Plaza (south of Albertson's Market). Brought to you by the same owners as What's the Scoop? which is the ice cream and chocolatier shop next door, this cafe also serves chips and salsa before your breakfast meal. That is, if you can score a table or a high-top chair at the bar! This place is already so popular. I had a meeting I was headed to so I got my order to go, but I would love to just sit and be served here. The staff members were all very kind. My French vanilla latte ($4.25) was creamy, but I still tasted the coffee! I also grabbed a cheesecake pastry as well as a pumpkin filled pastry with sugar on top. Both pastries came out to $5.98. I'm saving my pumpkin one for a midnight snack, but the cheesecake was no overly sweet. The bottom was just a bit overdone, but still really good. I only wish that they would have a QR code for the menu or a menu posted at the register. The menu was being passed around amongst the patrons that were there before me so I really didn't know what they offered for breakfast before I just settled on grabbing my own pastries from the self-serve area. Love the bright colors. The coffee. The vibes. Happy October! TIP + Their hours are Tuesday-Sunday 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4.5| Price: 4.5
