I'm visiting family in Rio Rancho and was so glad to find a great local coffee shop in town. I…read moreordered two iced coffees, one with sugar‑free vanilla and one with sugar‑free caramel and both were delicious.

. I woke up grumpy…read morethat sunny first Saturday in April. I remember it well. (it was 4 days ago) My wife suggested we try this coffee shop. Begrudgingly I went along; not quietly but more "respectfully pissy" i would say. Navigating our large van in the parking lot we still couldn't find the business. I started bitching about the crummy location, poor signage and how I just wanted a cup of quality coffee. That life shouldn't be this hard on a Saturday morning. Where is this coffee roasters shop? Finally: We located and walked into Candlestick... ...and POOOF !!! We meet (and want to marry) Zach! The enthusiasm, passion, knowledge, mission and love this guy has for his craft is amazing. We are so impressed. We decided Zach's wife is soo lucky! Mia M. did a review calling this an "intimate coffee experience" and I agree. When we relocate to Corrales, we will become frequent customers of this business. "Like really good like customers as they say in the valley." Thank you Zach for an exceptional coffee "pour over" experience ... we loved our individual cups of coffee. We support your fair trade mission, and wish you very well in your business. After our Candlestick Visit: My mood improved from a 3/10 scale, to a 10/10 after my visit to Candlestick Roasters ... YMMV of course, but please give it a try :)

I was in Albuquerque for a business trip and ended up coming here three days in a row! I tried…read moresomething different every day -- the Cutbow Amorcita with an almond croissant, the Cutbow Trementina, and an oat milk latte with canela syrup. Everything was so good. I'm definitely a bit of a coffee snob, so the fact that I kept coming back says a lot. The staff was always friendly and pleasant, and I even bought a bag of beans to take home. Can't wait to try them!

This is an absolute must stop if you're in Albuquerque, New Mexico and you love coffee and…read morespecialty teas and treats. I always make it a point to stop here at least once or twice while I'm in town because it's one of the best spots for your morning caffeinated. It has a unique welcoming atmosphere themed towards fly fishing enthusiast. A beautiful set up with the roaster right at the front and center in a nice outdoor patio right off of Rio Grande Blvd. There's sample beans for display ranging from Costa Rica to Guatemala to Kenya to Papua New Guinea and beyond. Their pastries come from local Le Chantilly Fine Pastries. The raspberry tart was absolutely delectable. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, as well as knowledgeable about all the various products and procedures for roasting. Java lovers don't miss this spot!

I had a conference across the street and decided to stop by before it started…read more I was greeted by Greg who was both funny and welcoming -- I ordered a Large matcha latte with almond milk and he allowed me to try it in case there needed to be any additions or changes. The decorations and vibe inside was warm, eclectic and I'd recommend getting there early if you want a place to sit. I had such a great experience, I went back the next day. Highly recommend you check it out!

Came in looking for some coffee beans, and came out a loyal customer. This is a walk-in roastery…read morefor coffee beans. Love interaction between their employees and the quality of information they have on their coffee beans. I enjoyed the decorations inside, a home barista dream build. You can purchase coffee beans, but if you don't know what coffee beans to look for they are well informed. If you informed them of what you're looking for, they can pinpoint a specific bag that meets your needs. They also have different types of coffee beans, so I suggest that your wallet ready cause I was about to leave with more coffee beans than needed. You can also purchase coffee gear such as filters, cold brew filter jar, French press, and red rock roaster gear.

Finally made it in! It's been on the bucket list for a while…read more I got the Zia with white chocolate iced with oat milk! It was delicious! Perfect blend not too sweet and just the right amount of flavor! Service was kind and helpful with recommendations and helping my son pick a donut flavor.

Highly recommend and will be back again I want to try the Turkish latte next!

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!

Another amazing coffee shop!…read more Its in a hidden or tucked in corner of the old town area. The patio is beautiful with a ton of shade, beautiful flowers and trees. You can seat outside to enjoy the plants and the cute cat that roams around. You can also sit inside which is very picturesque and refreshing.
