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.

If parking fills up, they have an additional lot just east of the property! Albuquerque hospitality mixed with old town charm, stop in, get fed, and support local!

First time visiting Cutbow Coffee Roasters, but I've been drinking coffee long enough to know the…read moredifference between good coffee and coffee that merely exists. 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.

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.

It sits back a block off the main drag and the parking is on the street but it is just a great place. First of all the food is good. They have something for everyone. They work hard to get everyone's orders just right. They can do the whole gluten sensitivity, dairy allergy, snowflake type of food. So if you're looking for a place that can work with you to avoid any food allergies they always seem to come through for us. As for the staff and service, I think it's great. They have that breakfast place vibe. A great sense of humor. High energy and everyone, customers and staff are all laughing and chattering. Awesome vibes! As for ambiance, the inside is cool. Everything in that place has a story and the whole place is talking. We usually sit outside. The sun is warm in the mornings and there is little traffic and usually we get into a conversation with someone sitting nearby because everybody's just so nice and friendly. I highly recommend Santa Cecilia! Keep it laid-back keep it cheerful just go there for a smile decent cup of coffee and a good breakfast, whether it is pastry or sandwich!

Time flew when we enjoying the cozy ambiance of this shop and the staff were so polite in letting us know that we sat there until the shop was about to close already! womp womp!

The parking is a bit crazy, they do have someone trying to help direct traffic through the parking lot. If you don't want to brave that though, there's plenty of street parking. It's busy but there's a lot of indoor and outdoor seating and the turnover pace is pretty good. Things can be a bit loud if you hit the crowded times, but really it's a popular spot for good reason. I got the sweet potato hash and it had the perfect mix of veggies and eggs and was cooked just right. I also tried one of their tea blends and it really hit the spot. The staff is all very friendly and helpful as well and the food comes out quickly. Anyway, great experience as always at the Grove!

The bread is clearly baked fresh and was nice and crusty on the outside and fluffy with the perfect chew on the inside. My mini me 1 inhaled her grilled cheese (of which my husband ordered the full size and also demolished his), and mini me 2 and I shared the toasted tuna melt. Good balance of tuna, celery, and bread ratio, but I didn't dig the olives in it. There's a mini kale salad that comes with entrees, and it was healthy and palatable for kale. We did end up balancing that green with the pistachio cruffin and pistachio chocolate chip cookie. Would definitely go back for the cruffin with its flaky layers and luscious pastry cream. Cookie was less impressive but still worth the impulse buy. Indoor and breezy outdoor seating available. Highly recommend!

The negatives were not enough to take away from the 5 star…read moreyelp rating here but there is some low hanging fruit here that would meaningfully improve the customer experience. The food and coffee here aren't excellent. No question. Surprisingly strong spice level for an old town location, good range of New Mexican AND coffee shop menu options for breakfast and lunch. I had the enchiladas and added eggs and bacon, which is essentially Huevos Rancheros the way it is served in bowl form. Potatoes, beans, and chile flavors all complimented each other well, nice garnish and nice presentation. Had house coffee which is SOLID. The service style is counter ordering with a number, which for me is a great system. Negative - the coffee service with food is a bit confusing. Coffee comes in a paper cup for everyone apparently, which feels a bit sloppy. Mugs would be really nice. Also, because coffee is served with meal by table delivery, coffee takes a long time to get to the table. I personally like my coffee immediately and intravenously, so this was frustrating. The patio is lovely - the tables are weird. There are only large group tables, no small tables. BIGGEST Negative - parking. I looked at the social media, menu, website, and the parking problem is not addressed anywhere that I could easily find. The adjacent city lot is priced for tourists - $12 flat rate. Given that the numerous other breakfast options in the area have free and close parking, in our lamentably car-driven culture, Tiny Grocer is at a big disadvantage. I'm sure this is a recurring and difficult problem, and I would suggest blasting a solution on all social media, pinned posts, first line in bio, menu, everywhere. People could park on 18th st, 19th st, next to Tiguex park, and take a short walk to a lovely experience.
