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!

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.

Never knew this place was here and come to this location often. I must say it is just enjoyable here. You have to visit to appreciate the atmosphere here.

Definitely will be back, when we're back in Albuquerque.

There were ornaments and chocolate truffles for sale and a wide variety of pastries and sweets. I got the pumpkin bread ($4.25) and a medium biscochito latte.

And while the biscochito latte was good, it wasn't quite as sweet as I had hoped. 2026 #1

First of all, Cup of Cozy? That's either the name of a coffee shop or the title of a Hallmark movie…read morewhere a stressed-out city executive learns the true meaning of Christmas. Either way, I'm in. The name sets some pretty high expectations. "Cozy" isn't just a word--it's a promise. It's soft blankets, rainy afternoons, books you swear you'll finish someday, and coffee cups that require two hands. Fortunately, Cup of Cozy understood the assignment. Walking inside felt like stepping into a space that was intentionally cared for. Everything was remarkably clean, tastefully decorated, and arranged in a way that made me want to stay longer than I planned. There were plenty of tables and seating, and a small music stage tucked into the back that gave the whole place the feeling of a community gathering spot rather than just another coffee counter. You can easily imagine live music, conversations, and regulars settling into their favorite corners. The shop is owned by a friendly couple, and their warmth seems to be baked right into the atmosphere. Some places work hard to feel welcoming; this one simply is. Drink-wise, the lavender latte arrived with a little bit of an attitude. It wasn't one of those timid lattes that politely whispers "coffee" from across the room. This one showed up, introduced itself firmly, and then followed through with a surprisingly smooth lavender finish. Strong? Absolutely. Tasty? Also absolutely. The Starry Island Italian soda was the perfect counterbalance. One sip and suddenly my brain was nowhere near New Mexico. It was somewhere with palm trees, warm ocean breezes, and a beach chair that costs more than it should. Fruity, tropical, and incredibly refreshing, it tasted like the beverage equivalent of a mini vacation. If the lavender latte was the serious adult in the room, the Starry Island was already barefoot in the sand, ordering another round of sunshine. And because life is unpredictable, I also left with a 5-pound bag of ice. Not every coffee shop can satisfy your caffeine needs and prepare you for a backyard barbecue in the same transaction. Cup of Cozy delivered exactly what its name promises: good drinks, genuine hospitality, and an atmosphere that makes you want to linger. In a world full of coffee shops trying to become destinations, this one succeeds by simply being comfortable, welcoming, and authentic. Sometimes that's all it takes to make an ordinary stop feel like the best part of your day.

I love love love the atmosphere and vibes here but the food has taken a serious downhill turn over…read morethe last few years. As someone else mentioned, the veggies in the roasted veggie taco are those nasty large-cut premixed veggies that come in a frozen bag. (Kind of a bizarre choice for a restaurant that's literally on a farm.) My breakfast taco was bland and cold (the cheese wasn't even melted). The lemonade is watery and almost flavorless. The al pastor is chewy and the flavor is not al pastor. Also the line takes forever, and I think part of the reason is that they've moved the menu boards so you can only see them right before it's your turn to order. If people could look at them while they were waiting, I bet the line would move a lot faster. I really hope the business owners are reading these reviews and are open to feedback. I'm pretty loyal to this place but have gotten to the point where I'd rather eat before I get here...
