Mochaccino with ham and gruyere pastry.
Gerald M.

Amazing coffee and even greater French inspired pastries. The decor is very New Mexican and it has comfortable couches. it's in a great location: old town! It would come back daily if I could...service was great and recommendations are helpful.

Habiscus matcha coconut milk latte
Farrah A.

I've been to Flying Roadrunner Bakery twice during my few work trips to ABQ. It's in a great location - old town Albuquerque - and features coffees, matcha, teas, and fresh-baked goods. No other place have I been able to try a green chile and gouda croissant. The pic I snapped didn't do it justice - buttery and flackey layers with a soft and chewy texture. Aside from the croissants and crossaint sandwiches, conchas are also a popular bread item. There's plenty of seating, outlets for laptops, murals to check out and local art for sale. It's also woman-owned. :)

Original Cinnamon Roll

This is a must!!! Such an awesome vibe! And the pastry's are probably some of the best I've ever had!! Paired with their fresh coffee made everything so freakin good!!! I'll absolutely be coming back and recommending to others.

Very quaint spot with friendly service and a nice selection of pastries and coffees. I went for my first Elite event. And they had an improv group for some entertainment. Nice afternoon event!

Original Cinnamon Roll
Corinna P.

I had been wanting to try this bakery for awhile now but for one reason or another it was always closed but I finally caught them open a couple weeks ago and we were finally able to buy some goodies. Well upon entering we could see that there was not much variety on the particular day we went around 12:30 pm so I ended up getting the last Cinnamon Roll and hubby got a pastry that I can't recall the name of. My hubby felt that the gal that walked up towards the counter to help us was rude and non communicative. I'm usually the one who notices these things but something about her demeanor really set my hubby off. So we quickly paid for our order and took off. Once we got home we brewed up some coffee so we could try our treats. I have to say that I was pretty let down. There is a lot of great reviews on this page for these pastries but unfortunately neither did I or hubby experience the same. My cinnamon roll was so dense and dry and the texture of the sugar glazing on top was so off putting in my mouth. Hubby ate his pastry and shared with me that he didn't care for it either. Maybe it was because my cinnamon roll was the last one and maybe it had been sitting out all morning. I will say that the location is in a nice area of old town. The shop is very cute and has ample seating. It just wasn't for us. Come out and give them a try

Flying Roadrunner is absolutely the reason you should be hanging out in old town more. Seriously it's businesses like this that have made the area an absolute gem. On my most recent visit, I was able to try some of their more spring inspired treats, including a beautiful peach tart and their Cubano inspired croissant sandwich. Both were really amazing. I'm glad I planned on sharing them because I would have happily scarfed down both alone. They're always so friendly in the space is very warm. They have cool local art on the walls and just a lot of cute little details. I highly recommend keeping an eye out for their seasonal changes and inspired flavors.

Another amazing experience at this gem in old town. The service and food are always top line. You can never go wrong.

Ruby Danish and Black Coffee
Elizabeth H.

Most flavorful Ruby Danish I ever had. Soft, moist and so "juicy"! I was lucky to arrive just in time at this bakery. Their cakes, pastries were about sold out. It's a spacious place so I can imagine lines and crowds forming in the early hours. Will definitely check it out again when in town and will arrive earlier.

Chocolate Croissant and Turkey Croissant
Sheshanna P.

Overall: Flying Roadrunner is a cute bakery and coffee shop in Old Town with some of the best croissants and danishes in town. Food: 5 Every pastry that I have tried here has been excellent. Pan Au Chocolate: This was perfectly flaky, and I like how the chocolate is spread out throughout the entire pastry rather than just one log at the center. Turkey Croissant Sandwich: I'm not usually a fan of sweet and savory but the tiny bit of strawberry jam in this savory sandwich was delicious. You can ask them to warm it up so the cheese is nice and melty! Chorizo & Cheese Croissant: This was a surprising filling for a croissant but it was delicious. Cinnamon Rolls: These are not your typical soft cinnamon rolls. It has an almost caramelized bottom that's slightly crispy. They're also GIGANTIC. Service: 5 The employees were very nice and patient while we decided on our orders. Ambiance: 5 The shop has both indoor and outdoor seating. It's a nice little spot to sit and just people watch at the center of Old Town.

Tasty stuffed croissants
Rose B.

Cute place tucked in the back of an Albuquerque old town plaza. They serve some delicious stuffed croissants as well as other tasty treats. Friendly behind the bar people work hard and fast. Decorated with a creative flair that feels welcoming.

Hibiscus croissant and lavender chocolate ganache croissant
Sara N.

My goodness this is a sweet local find!! I've yet to try something here that I didn't absolutely love! And can we take a moment to talk about the amazing pavers who just give the community welcoming vibe! Love it here

Almond Croissant
Emily Y.

The almond croissant had me raving. Crispy, with fluffy layers and an absolutely delicious almond cream. I was delighted by it! I stopped by around 1pm and there was still stock, but when I passed by again about an hour or so later, they had completely sold out. The place is decorated very nicely, but I felt it was lacking in seating.

The flying roadrunner menu
Tom G.

Away in old town, this local coffee shop in bakery is a great gathering place whether you're touring old town or just looking for a different kind of coffee shop to experience. Our group ordered off of the seasonal Coffee menu getting the Erika, Dalgona and Dark Chocolate Spiced Latte.

Owner told me how to parent my child and proceeded to kick us out after ordering. Worst customer service ever.
