    Bitter shaken espresso
    Bryan V.

    Rude staff. Got a shaken espresso, it was strong for my taste so i asked for some more creamer. Was told, "thats the size of the drink" which wasn't what i asked. I suppose I'm not to enjoy what i bought. Luckily I got a refund, but gosh $9 for a drink and cant even ask for milk is crazy...

    Stopped by for an LB latte made with their homemade cedar vanilla syrup. This was definitely a unique flavor combo that worked well. The coffee was smooth and not overly sweet. Service was okay. The barista was chatting with their coworker most of the time, but my drink came out pretty quickly. There's some seating around if you want to hang out for a bit. Overall, solid spot to grab a latte while exploring Sawmill Market.

    Coffee this good sings harmony w. dessert masterpieces..:)

    I won't superspread What you said I'm 'a sit out, out I just want coffee I just want coffee Darling, 'cause you You love, you love, you love.. While reacquainting ourselves w. the SawMill Markeet, We acquired some Java Elixir from "Little Bear Coffee"...to wash down our Fruit Tart from Crème de la Crème next door. The Lass enjoyed her "Mocha Latte" (quite delishhh) while the Lad, was head over heels excited w. his.. "Mocha Cappuccino" (taking him back to the Caffè Cappuccino he enjoyed daily on the Streets of Florence, Italy). It was superb..:) It's sunny outside.. Now, my head starts playing this tune.. And you'll love it 'cause it's all about you.. Say, Before you get back again I'm 'a fade out, out I just want coffee I'm just a "Coffee Song"..:) Best, Avram Jeremyloops Jr.

    Great coffee, great selection, even better people!!! Located in the Saw Mills area, this was a great find. Inside there is a lot going on with many restaurants, bars, and stalls however, little bear was a shining star. Have been back twice in my short stay here.

    I think this is first time I've gotten latte art on my coffee. I got one of the seasonal drinks, the latte de olla, a spiced latte with piloncillo. It was lovely, none of the flavors were too strong or too weak and the drink had a wonderful balance. It was easy to drink and tasty too.

    Little Bear, Little Bear, Let me in (to get some caffeine). Cassey needed to drive into Albuquerque for job-related things, so I hopped in and went with her. Once she was done at work, we headed to Sawmill Market to get both food and coffee at the same time. Little Bear Coffee is located in the far back of the building and, from what I recall, is the only coffeehouse in the food court. Cassey and I went back there after wandering around a bit and I got my usual americano while she got a latte. I also got two sweet looking stickers at $2 a piece. When you pick up your drink, you'll see an offer to get a free sticker if you leave a review... so I did just that after we walked around and sipped our coffees. The americano was pretty good. I was craving some sweets on this trip something fierce so I should've gotten a flavored latte but the americano was a good choice, if a bit weak on having that extra bitter that I usually like out of them. When we placed our orders, I noticed they had some shirts for sale. I checked their website as we walked around and saw the size of the shirt I would want was sold out. So, I made a trip back to the counter and asked if they had the death metal-looking t-shirt in either medium or large in stock. The barista went searching and found a medium, possibly the last one they had on hand. I quickly purchased it and plan to wear it a ton since it has a death metal style logo and a grim reaper looking guy on it. Keep an eye out for it in future reviews. I may try to wear it in a future coffee or brewery review. Anywho, Sawmill Market and Little Bear Coffee are excellent choices if you find yourself in Albuquerque... where they say the towels are oh so fluffy and you can eat your soup right out of the ashtray if you want... it's ok, they're clean.

    Cortado (half consumed) and chai latte were delish! Friendly baristas and fast service

    Good coffee, fast service, friendly staff Opt for glass/cup if drinking on site (Coffee was so good I had to try it before taking the photo)

    Sawmill isn't complete without a coffee shop. I am glad to see that they re opened the coffee shop. I ordered an iced oatmilk matcha and it was delightful. My only critique is that Little bear doesn't have very many specialty lattes as its more of a classic coffee shop with a basic menu. I think that this is okay for most people, however, my personal favorite about going to local coffee shops is seeing their specialty latte menu. The customer service was excellent and they made my latte in a timely manner.

There are so many drinks to choose from, some bakery treats, and on weekend, Croffles (croissant dough waffles). Since it was Saturday I ordered the strawberry croffle and a cucumber sparking water, my husband tried one of the lattes. Everything was ready quick and tasted great. We found a spot to sit down and eat and enjoyed the coziness of the cafe. There are lots of blackbird decor items all over the shop. The courtyard was also so pretty. We would visit again!

    I love blackbirds so I was sold as soon as I saw the raven (crow?) beckoning me in…read more The decor did not disappoint! Blackbird art everywhere and a very 90s old school coffeehouse vibe. Plenty of seating with tables, comfortable chairs and banquet seating if that's more your thing. On a nice day, sit outside as it's absolutely lovely out there, downright magical. Baristas are so nice and they put a lot of effort into crafting your drink. Admittedly, I didn't love my Americano but that had more to do with the type of bean (think a brighter flavor, while I prefer a dark roasted nutty flavor). This wouldn't at all stop me from returning and trying something else, like one of their cute specialty lattes if I'm feeling something on the sweeter side. Their prices are extremely reasonable, too.

This place definitely falls into the first category. This morning I went with the single origin Guatemala drip, and it was exactly what a solid cup of coffee should be. Smooth, rich, and balanced with a nice chocolate note that hangs around just long enough to make you take another sip. No bitterness. No burnt taste. Just a clean, well-roasted cup that says someone here actually cares about the beans. The shop itself has a personality, which I always appreciate. It's decorated with fishing lures, fish artwork, and sculptures scattered around the place. Naturally this leads to the obvious conclusion: the owner is either an avid fisherman... or coffee roasting is just the side hustle between trout expeditions. Either way, the theme works. The space feels relaxed, creative, and comfortable. The kind of place where you can sit with a cup and not feel rushed out the door. And speaking of doors, while I was there there was a steady flow of customers coming in and out. That's usually the universal coffee signal for yep, this place is doing something right. Bottom line: Great coffee, cool atmosphere, and a shop with enough character to keep things interesting. I'll definitely be back for another cup of that Guatemala.

    Service was so kind and helpful with recommendations and questions around coffee and pastries…read more I got the mocha with macadamia milk. It was delicious. Very mild chocolate, I believe it is Dutch chocolate if my memory services me not to sweet which I appreciate. It was delightfully well balanced. The coffee itself is very smooth and not bitter, excellent taste! I will be back for sure to try other options there are lots of choices. I should have taken a picture of the menu. There is ample seating both inside and outside, had I not had my toddler with me I would have loved to sit out front but it is right by the road so a no go with a rambunctious little boy... There is additional outside seating to the side and farther from the road too. I look forward to my next trip.
