    Evetts Cafe - Exterior: recycled/repurposed historical structure

    2/19/26: Drove there and it was 12:05 PM on a Thursday and it was closed yet the hours posted…read morestated it was open.

    I was about halfway through my very tardy "Sixth Annual First Quarter Odyssey: 1-country/2-states,…read more09-23APR2023", and had just had a superb overnight at the outstanding High Country Lodge. I spent most of the previous day cycling East from amazing Quemada on US60, so a refreshing/regenerating overnight was essential. Obviously, I needed an equally refreshing/energizing start and this cafe--now named "Evetts" (formerly Espresso)--was the absolutely the BEST place to start! Besides unique/fresh/nutritious meals, I was almost shocked and delighted to learn that affogato was available. When biketouring/travelling, this is one of the greatest morning treats I've ever had--not only plenty of needed caffeine, and (¡probably unneeded!) sugar. I enjoyed other filling dishes before continuing my Eastern direction on US60 to SocorroNM. I didn't cycle away immediately--Magdalena is such an attractive/"unknown/undiscovered" community in which the history lives on with the structures restored/repurposed! The abandoned tracks have a great roadbed waiting for more full development/hiking-biking trail for use by locals and long-distance enthusiasts alike. ¡This is such a tremendous community, and I look forward to returning--I'll plan to stay at least TWO nights for a full experience! It definitely has my coveted "iWheel of Approval!" ¡Highly recommended'

    Eagle Ranch Cafe is the only spot for gas, groceries and a hot meal for miles around...literally…read morethe only game in town. You'd better like it, cause that's all you got! We are riding motorcycles cross country from Virginia and heading back after visiting the North and Sourh Rim of the Grand Canyon. We have met the nicest people along the way and the folks at the Eagle Ranch Cafe were no exception. The little store has just about anythimg you could need, from tools to shampoo to fresh ground beef, with all sorts of local memorable displayed throughout. There cafe menu is varied and the prices are easy. The waitress was friendly and efficient. We ordered bugers and topped our meal off with homemade pie. There were at least 7 different ones to choose from! I doubt we will ever pass through again, but this city slicker is happy to have experienced a slice of Datil, NM (pop 15)

    We've been here a few times passing through and it's typically really good food and service…read more However if you're ordering off the low carb menu, you have to say that exactly. All three of the items on that section of the menu are served with a salad, and are under the same name as some of the other sandwiches that they offer. My mom had ordered the southwest turkey, off the low carb menu, thinking that it would just come with a side salad, so she also ordered some of the soup of the day. Apparently she pointed to the low carb section on the menu while ordering, but didn't say it out loud. Idk, she probably messed up by not saying it. Anyways, when the waitress brought out the southwest turkey Sandwich, and not the low carb meal, mom realized that she'd accidentally ordered the wrong thing. Instead of saying "I didn't realize that you meant the low carb, I'm sorry," our waitress said "well that's not what you told me" and walked away to get our ticket. Then, she proceeded to say that it's not her job to ask if people wanted the low carb option or not, and that my mom should have told her in the first place. Only after realizing that she got a $2 tip, she finally said sorry and then began starting an ARGUMENT with my mother, who is a former waitress herself. In the end after my mom said have a great day, the waitress made a sarcastic comment about how great her day was going and we left. The food was good, aside from the overcooked burger that my dad had. But our waitress was incredibly rude, which is surprising for a little town like Datil. We probably won't be back after that experience. Maybe she was not having a great day, but that's no way to treat returning customers.
