Beautiful hidden gem! Cozy cabins super comfortable everything you need! The coffee is so yummy freshly roasted right on location. The art work and jewelry selection is fabulous. We can’t wait to go back.

Another charming cafe in Ramah. We enjoyed a cup of Mexican coffee and a strawberry smoothie. The store is beautifully decorated and offers a wide variety of art, decor, jewelry, etc. The herb loft was our favorite!

What a lovely gem in the desert. I enjoyed a green chile hot chocolate. Lots of trinkets and things you’ll want to bring home. There’s a cozy upstairs sitting area that is closed right now. Definitely stop by if you’re passing through or visiting El Morro National Monument.

It's a store and a nice breakfast place. The lady in-charge was so wonderful. The place has a whole spiritual vibe to it. We had hand ground coffee with Bagels and creme cheese. it was delicious indeed. I lost my wallet earlier in the Roadtrip from Detorit to AZ. So, I couldn't buy any souvenir but I took some good photos of this place. It was so peaceful.

A great shop! The owners are amazing. We had 2 mocha lattes and enjoyed them on the (very relaxing) patio. Will definitely go again when we are out their way. They even have rental cabins!

This place is awesome! We met Karen, Pam and I think Bill all of whom are very kind and make great drinks. They have a huge selection of teas for sell and awesome finds in general. The outside seating and a loft above the cafe are both very inviting, my family loved the visit and would recommend it as a stop if you're on the road.

Amazing atmosphere, the couple who own and run it were just so sweet and they make an amazing cup of coffee, with just the right balance between the coffee and the syrup. The shop was full of fun, cute, and interesting things. I will absolutely be going back when I'm in the area.

The owners are a lovely & charming folk. It's a friendly place to travelers new to New Mexico and is the social center of the local community. It has a wide circle of artists and crafters who vend their wares here and its a treat to go searching through the shop to discover all the little treasures! Great coffee, friendly atmosphere, and just an overall delight! A gem in the mountains.
