From the moment I walked in, I was greeted nicely and showered with information about their menu. The cashier really knew their stuff about the options I had before me. The iced matcha latte turned out to be amazing, it had a little earthy note while maintaining a sweet and smooth drinkable flavor that I just loved! My favorite matcha latte in Albuquerque hands down. The artichoke harvarti panini was cheesy and yummy but oddly the artichoke went pretty well with it, I knew this one was gonna be a hit or miss but I actually thought it was pretty great. read more

Great location close to the Bosque Trail east access by bicycle, Roller Skates, Skate Board or Run/walk. Dog Friendly Patio and they offer a free dog cookie each visit. The service was fast and friendly. They have a not too loud house music system playing indoors and out on the patio. A great local chain. read more

Great food and service! Probably the best breakfast tacos I've EVER had. The corn tortillas were nice and big, plus they toasted the tortilla so the tacos didn't fall apart. The green chile was flavorful ans a good heat. The portions were generous. A satisfying and healthy breakfast. read more

Service is always great at Satellite. I make a stop here at least once when I visit Albuquerque during the holidays. The folks are nice that make up the ambiance. A gentleman offered me a squash. When does that ever happen?! read more

This is a fantastic coffee shop -- the aesthetic is beautiful, and the menu is thoughtful and creative. The Café con Leche and Dirty Matcha were both absolutely delicious! The ginger cookie was phenomenal -- perfectly spiced and super fresh. We also loved learning that they work with a commissary baker off-site who makes all the pastries. It's great to see that kind of quality and care behind the scenes. Shoutout to Michael -- he was incredibly helpful in walking us through the menu and explaining everything clearly. Definitely give that guy a raise! One small suggestion: we were a little disappointed to hear that the non-coffee caffeinated drinks are bottled juice. I work on a coffee truck, and we use a brand called Lotus -- it's derived from the coffee plant and makes for a great non-coffee, carbonated energy option. Could be a fun addition to the menu! read more

We enjoyed a quick Saturday morning breakfast at Satellite. The NM grab burrito and frosty chai were both so delicious!!! I was pleasantly surprised. The green chile was great, super spicy, eggs were fluffy, and potatoes delicious. The frozen drink helped cool down the spice level. We enjoyed eating on their patio under their shade structure. read more

Really warm, inviting and comfy coffee shop. Nice people at the counter. More important is that they provide excellent tea and coffee drinks. We had a very enjoyable experience. read more

Not a great experience for us today. I ordered an ice latte, and it was really bad. It has weird taste and sediment in it of some type. It was room temp even though it had ice in it. I took a couple drinks and brought it up to counter and told them something was wrong with it. I got another one that tasted like I was drinking just oat milk. I couldn't finish it either. I got a gluten free second and it just must have been a day old one or just a bad one as it was really dry. My friend had a dry cap and it was not dry at all and piled high with foam that did not look like normal milk foam. We won't be back. read more

I thought I had Thee tastiest Mexican Spice Coffee(hot) with oat milk alternative in all of Albuquerque and then my wife convinced me to try this place!! Service gets an A. Ambient feel, Solid B+ and the food!??? A+. MEXICAN SPICE..., it was a pleasure to have met you! I normally don't fall in love on the first date, but .... I love you and I'll be back soon !! read more

Excellent coffee. Hand-pulled shots of espresso. Gluten-free items available as well as other favorite menu items and desserts from their sister restaurant, Flying Star. Baristas are great. It can be crowded - a testament to how good it is. Very consistent. read more

I recommend the Mocha Fuego! Coffee with a spicy kick....it's a great way to get your morning going. Really is a nice place to be read more

Satellite has some seriously tasty coffee drinks. I tried a latte and brought some beans home. Everything was very good. Their prices are pretty standard. I would definitely go back if I were in the area. read more

This is a smaller coffee shop but staff is very friendly. The Chai and also the London Fog are my go-to drinks. The coffee is also smooth. They have a good variety of drinks and food items to choose from. Fast service. It's nice that they have a patio that is dog friendly. Very consistent food and service. I do recommend this place. read more

So what's not to like? Satellite Coffee is a great little local ABQ coffee haus chain that serves up great Joe with a warm smile. Attached to the hip to it's sister eatery, Fly Star, they often offer up some of the same delicious sweet eats, mostly made form their shared commissary. In a day when most of the "Gourmet" coffee shops are unwrapping frozen goods to pair with their coffee/teas, Satellite goes that extra mile and provides deliciously homemade deserts. I know, I knw...there are a "few" deserts that are not homemade, but at least they own it up front if asked and bare no guilt. :) Never regretted a quick stop here...Satellite always comes through! read more

Satellite Coffee - Brownie or not - this little bite was unforgettable. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I recently stopped by this place. I got my chai latte and a pastry. Service at the counter was friendly and quick. This one off Alameda is smaller than the others I have been too but it didn't feel crowded. In fact a large group came in and it was still comfortable. The chai was just the right temp and just the right amount of milk. Pastry was a treat. Was concerned about getting back out on the road. No problem there is 2 driveway entrances; one on Alameda and another on Coors read more

I had never been in this location before. The staff was friendly and helpful. They were quick to get me the tea I was ordering. The one thing there were a number of tables with items on them. I sat to drink my tea and it wasn't till I was about to leave they cleaned up the tables even though they were not that busy. read more

The woman I love says this is her favorite coffee place in the world so therefore it is also my favorite coffee place in the world. Nevermind that Jimi has never had coffee before. I'm self energized. Nonetheless, I love her and this place 5 stars read more

Great coffee, friendly staff, fast service. I like that the menu board is simple and you can order without scanning 100 items. read more

Food cold in the middle after being microwaved and way over priced and the lady working there was very rude

The coffee is smooth and delicious. I've had a mint blended cold drink both times I've been and both times they were flavorful and refreshing. I wish there was one in Santa Fe! My husband and son have had their dark roast coffe, black and they both said the coffee was smooth and excellent taste/roast combo. read more

Seriously I have to stop this chocolate coffee chile and whipped cream addiction! Sooo good and they'll even make decaf version for my afternoon fix. I think I'm in love with my barista OR is it the coffee talking? @SatelliteCoffee #MokaDeFuego #WantHisNumber read more

Another great coffee spot! I've never had their food here but it looks pretty good. The coffee is definitely what I come here for. The staff is super friendly and greeted me right away and there was absolutely no wait for my chai latte. I see that they have this really cool drink called Strawberry acai recharger with green coffee extract. I must try this next time. Nice soft music in the background and people working away on their laptops. That's what going on around me at the moment. I highly suggest coming here to relax or write a paper, maybe a coffee date or just because. read more

We moved to Albuquerque last year. I'm so glad we finally decided to stop at Satellite for breakfast today. This is my new favorite coffee place. Starbucks doesn't know how to roast coffee. These folks do. The cold brew was perfect. So smooth and bold with no acidity, bitterness or burnt flavor. Thank you, Satellite, for doing coffee the right way! read more

If you're looking for a nice, quiet and a coffee shop within walking distance to the river bank than this place is for you. It's conveniently located on Coors and Alameda since you can stop by, grab a cup of dirty chai and be on your way to work since we all know Alameda is a better route to travel to the East side of town. They do have tables outside and you can sit under the huge trees and watch cars, people and bicyclists since it's right next to the Bosque trail. Speaking of which, want a perfect date? Swing by get a coffee and walk to the Bosque trail - about 1/4 mile east of this shop, then you and your significant other can watch the sun set whilst feeding the geese/ducks. Would it be a perfect or near perfect place to study/ read? I'd think so, it's quieter than flying star - its bigger brother. One down side, its food/ drink menu isn't as big as its big brother. Last but not least, if you have a reward account with Flying Star or a gift card, it can be used here as well and vice versa. read more

Great coffee, great atmosphere, friendly staff, and extensive menu. If you're hungry, there are lunch items as well as a pastry counter. And if you just feel like grabbing some Joe with friends and camping out for an hour on the couch (or on the patio if it's nice out), nobody is going to chase you off. If anything, they'll ask you if you'd like a refill. This place CAN get a little overrun with laptop users, it being the only real alternative to camping out at Starbucks, but there's usually plenty of space to have a seat. (Usually, not all the time.) My only gripe about Satellite are those last few dregs of coffee. They tend to be grainy, and if you got a flavored coffee, it seems like their syrups settle to the bottom rather than fully incorporating into the drink. Don't be surprised if you get a mouthful of grainy syrup if you try to finish off your drink completely. Ick. read more

Aaaaahhh the sweet smell of coffee, aka nectar of the god's, aka human fuel, aka winter warmth... you catch my drift? Well, this local business has THE. BEST. COFFEE. IN. ABQ. I feel so lucky to pass by daily, this Satellite location. I live for their Cafe Con Leche: their magical mixture of expresso, cream, and sweetened condensed milk, that only comes in one size, the perfect size. I'll tell you now that even people who don't "like" coffee will LOVE this beverage. I've only had fantastic service and I'm going to be honest, even if the baristas weren't exceptional, I would come back for their locally perfected roast. Not to mention, they have some pretty spectacular food. Get any of the breakfast burritos... Delish! Go to this place! Try anything on the menu, hang out and enjoy free WiFi, your drink, write a paper, chat with a friend, or just people watch. It will make for a great day! read more

This store is amazing! The whole set up, the coffee the service. I would say this is a great place to go study, take some pictures of the one you love, while on a coffee date. No detail has been over looked, this store is made for comfort. read more

I'm not a regular to this coffee shop but I think I may become one. I had an incredibly pleasant experience here. It's peaceful and the decor is oranges and reds. The seating areas are great for getting work done. Curtis, barista on shift, was so genuine and friendly. He helped me pick out a drink that was right for me. Their products here are really different but also very crowd friendly. A latte with cardamom ?!! Love it. Thanks Satellite you've officially drawn me away from the "big" coffee guys :) Thank you again Curtis ! read more

I'm a loyal Starbucks gold star member when I'm back home in Chicago, BUT this has been my go to coffee place in NM since I can remember. If you're looking for a local vibe with bomb coffee and treats look no further.

TODAY, after living in Rio Rancho for the past 3 years, I FINALLY went in to Satellite Coffee on Alameda. I ordered the Iced Mexican Latte & a Horchata Frio. I don't know why I haven't come in here sooner! BOTH drinks were delicious! I'm trying my best to support more LOCAL BUSINESSES rather than large CHAINS (i.e. Starbucks, Dunkin, etc.) I'll definitely be back to try more coffee, the sandwiches and the breakfasts. VERY good customer service & polite employees. ANOTHER BONUS: THEY HAVE water bowls & doggy biscuits for your pup outside the entrance read more

After a rough day shopping, we came here on the hope to relax and recharge. This place totally fit the bill. It is a cool coffee shop with a great, chill, atmosphere without pretension or packed with people. The coffee is great, many varieties with a choice of milks (the always desired oat milk is our consistent choice) and very comfortable seating in back. Definitely recommend for how a good coffee shop should be. read more

Went in and ordered a medium coffee with two expresso shots. That cost me $4.00. Okay. So then I ordered a refill for the coffee which should have been free with an added expresso shot which should have been .80 cents. But the Barista charged me for a tall expresso for $2.43. If you want the Starbucks experience and want to get ripped off, then come here. Same customer service concept. Very disappointing. read more

Dude, this has got to be one of the most comforting oat milk chai i ever had. The staff is wonderful, the space is cozy and comfortable to sit in or outside. It was a relief to see people lounging after this crazy panic-epidemic. It brought a sense of normality, comfort and humanity to this challenging time in our species history. My friend had a latte and he said is great. Definitely recommend! read more

It has been a while since my last visit to Satellite for an espresso beverage so I gave it a shot. $5+ is a steep price, but getting the drink for free simply by checking in with the app? I Mexican't believe it! Other than that iced don't have a latte say. read more
