I always stop here when going up to Red River/Rio Grande to go fishing or to go skiing in Taos. Really anytime I am in Taos this is my first stop. Best coffee and best breakfast burritos in the state without a doubt in my mind. It does take a while for the food to come out and there are some strange characters but you can’t expect Mcdonald’s service times and the weird crowd adds to the fun

Just had breakfast here. Ordered the bagel and salmon with the works and eggs, bacon and potatoes. It took them over thirty minutes and they weren’t even busy. I didn’t say anything until two tables that sat down after me were served. Seriously? Coffee was good and so was the food, but it took me complaining to get it served.

I should known better. As you pull in, the parking lot is full of drug addicted dirty stinky hippies. Once you get through the crowd of stinky on the nodders, you get inside where it seems everything is a secret drug deal. We couldn’t get anyone to wait on us, and there were another group of stinky hippies at the counter looking like they were bartering for something. We walked around… waited, waited some more, no one seemed interested in helping us out. We left, and yes… there were some hippies in the parking lot smoking pot… with there three filthy kids digging in the dirt. Skip this place, unless you need a fix, or need to hang out and not shower for a few days. Sorry, this place needs a visit from the local PD.

Twice now I have eaten there and my potatoes have been burnt, I mean black and charred. And the potatoes on your plated that aren’t brunt have little black crumbs of burnt all over them, do you really think someone wants to taste burnt crumbs cook? Someone who cooks during the evening shift doesn’t know how to cook or clean a grill. The french dip sandwich is $ 9.50 and doesn’t come with chips, salad, or fries but«you get way more meat» on a smaller than usual bun. The amount of meat is too much, I’d rather have less meat and a side with it, or as a stand alone item with less meat, cost less as well. The atmosphere is cool and the pastries are yummy, but they can’t seem to cook things very well. My eggs have also been overcooked multiple times When I sent my eggs and potatoes back to make right, they come out less burnt but not like you’d expect when you ask for a redo. I like the place, and would frequent it more if they could make their fresh food items better.

Waited for service at the front of the line, barista took orders from the back of the line from her friends and regulars. Not a good impression while I waited even longer with my outsider status.

Eric’s coffee blend is the best. I judge all other coffee cafes by the coffee at this place. Staff is extremely friendly, and breakfast tacos are great!!!

Anyplace whose motto is «resist mediocrity» can’t be all bad but this coffee house situated at the edge of tourist hell on the plaza lives up to it. The coffee is key and theirs is rock-star good and politically correctly grown, which is very important in the hippie time warp that is Taos. Parking is very limited but if you’re walking about checking out the town, it is your coffee must-stop!

This place is amazing. The coffee and pastries are out of this world. There are a few vegan options as well although I would love to see more…:) Your staff is very friendly.

Great breakfast selection, big coffee cups, free wi-fi, awesome outdoor area, semi-occasional(?) acoustic open mics on Sundays. Travels brought me through a couple times and I always enjoyed this spot, preferring it to downtown alternatives. Maybe a touch pricey for some, but that’s kind of typical at non-chain coffee shops like these where you’re getting fresh and organic ingredients. I would definitely recommend spending an hour and a few bucks here.

Absolute gluten free paradise. I wish there was one of these in Austin. Their rotating selection of baked goods were so impressive and delicious. The mini Cristo gluten free was covered in high quality bacon and a side of real maple syrup. We went here both mornings we were in Taos.

Our experience was awful. Most of the tables were taken up with people on laptops who did not appear to be customers. We were charged sort of a lot of money for burritos that weren’t hot, and we were not provided silverware to eat with. When I went to the counter to ask for utensils I was initially ignored.

Great coffee, my favorite in Taos. Food is inexpensive and also great. Check it out. Try the Frito pie, tacos, omelets, burritos, and pies.

Love this place! Very friendly! Excellent breakfast burrito! Home made everything! I am an oatmeal snob. They did it just right. Great oatmeal with lots of choices to add on. Perfection! Wonderful awareness of various food preferences and needs. Looked at the crummy reviews and wished they had read the sign about attitude next to the register… The presentation is not haute cuisine. It is more like your favorite grandmothers kitchen ! LOVEIT!!!

I LOVE this place. My boyfriend and I were staying nearby and needed a place to access the internet. The coffee spot was perfect. Nice drinks and an interesting atmosphere– very Taos hippie. I almost felt cooler just being there. Definitely a good place to go.

This place was definitely its own microcosm. I love the idea — quaint, arty community, fresh house made food — but the delivery was less than stellar. The daily special Italian soda was weird tasting and way too sweet(I think they just used the coffee syrup flavors) and my chai was ok. My garden salad was WAY overdressed and had lots of celery in it(odd choice, I thought). The service was really slow and they had to ask several times while we were waiting for us to repeat one of our drinks… and at the end, they totally forgot to give it to us. It was a classic case of one hand not knowing what the other is doing. Everyone was nice and friendly, though.

Formerly The Bean, which was my favorite coffee place anywhere. As far as I can tell, nothing is different about the coffee, and that suits me well. Strong and smooth, the coffee is as good as it gets. Very local clientele, and outdoor/indoor seating.

An amazing and fun place. The food is delicious and from scratch. The pastries are good, breakfast tacos are great, and the lattes(triple shot mediums) are the best on the planet. The atmosphere is great from the staff, to the place, and on to the diversity of people there. Anything goes and come as you are. I’ll ride 120 miles on my moto for breakfast here. It is just a wonderful alternative to corporate coffee as an authentic place to enjoy life, espresso drinks, and food.

Damn good service, damn good espresso, nice atmosphere, wicked art, plenty to snack on, and they had the ever elusive wifi we needed to get where we were going on our vacation. Thank you, Coffee Spot!

We found The Coffee Spot on Unilocal,and even though the reviews are mixed, we tried it anyway. My husband and I had the breakfast burritos with sausage. OMG, it was outstanding. I talked to the gentleman behind the counter as I could detect a hint of seasoning like oregano or thyme and asked him about it. He confirmed they make their own green chili sauce and put some Oregano in there. The combination of eggs, cheese, potatoes, sausage and this yummy green chili was delicious. The service was good, everyone behind the counter was friendly. Free wifi. If we lived in Taos I would make this a regular stop.

Overall, it was pretty bad. Considering I had been awake for hours and was embarking on a road trip, and had not had coffee yet, these lattes should have tasted AMAZING… regardless! They didn’t. They were mediocre. And served searing hot As in, $ 2 Million Dollar McDonald’s Lawsuit hot. It was over 20 minutes down the road(after the first initial scalding sip) before we could even think about drinking them. We also had to have them re-prepared, actually, because the Barista didn’t listen to our order and handed us two black coffees with syrup on them. Maybe she couldn’t hear because she was too busy screaming at her two young children who were playing… fighting… screaming… whatever… behind the counter. Sanitary, huh? I get that Taos has a different… lifestyle… but I just don’t get the«vibe» of this place. In any case, I don’t like to get my coffee in an orphanage.
