    Entrance!

    This spot was fun! They have a super cool outdoor patio with a skatepark ramp and very neat murals. The two ladies bartending were awesome. Quick and friendly even when it got super busy for the live music. I was surprised that they brew their own cider, which is my favorite, but they don't brew beer! So they have other New Mexico craft beers. We didn't eat from the bar food/food truck menu, but it looked delicious. It's a little too small inside, but it's definitely worth visiting!

    This is such a cute spot themed around the Inklings. Any fan of CS Lewis, Tolkien or the other two guys ()will be in love with the bookish vibes and decor. It can get pretty crowded and busy on weekends and at times that has made for some minor mistakes made on our orders. Last time we went one of our breakfast sandwiches wasn't labeled with our name so they never called it and ended we waited longer then we needed to and had to hunt for it at the counter. I'm pretty sure the cashier might have been new-ish and forgot to put the name on the order, she was rushing and she completed our order before we were completely done and ended up needing to do it in two transactions. In the end our order came out correctly even if the pickup process and the staff have always been nice so it's honestly not a deal breaker for us. We've never been there at a time when there is any seating free inside, but the outdoor seating is so comfy on a sunny morning. They have fun merch and you can even buy their house made syrups. The breakfast sandwich was delicious (Roasted Poblano Ranch), Earl Grey Latte was ok but didn't have a very strong Earl Grey flavor and was missing the grated orange peel on top, my brother enjoyed his drip coffee, my daughters cupcake was the only complete miss if I'm honest. It wasn't baked well at all, very dense and tasted almost undercooked. The frosting wasn't very good either, just super sugary no vanilla flavor or anything like that. My daughter barely touched it so I tried it to see what it was like and it definitely wasn't worth the price (I'm pretty sure it was around $6 or $8 ish ) I would maybe skip on the baked goods in the front case and opt for a hot item next time.

    What can I say? I was lucky enough to find this hidden gem on a recent trip to Roswell. The gal behind the bar was very friendly. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and the beers were fantastic. I'll definitely go back.

    Very relaxed southside brewery featuring cider, several guest taps and a food truck. Super dog-friendly, and with a patio & firepit, this is a mellow stop if you want a relaxed brew, fast friendly service, and a few games to play while you hang out. Recommend!

    Yeah we walked in the turned around and walked out, we didn't care for the smell and feel of the place, looked like they had a small select Mount of beers like only there own

    Good selection of beers, and ciders, they have a liquored slush too! The food was good, came out pretty darn fast. The sliders, I got the order of 2- they were very filling, and when paired with the fries made for a great meal. I had the Strawberry cider, it was pretty sweet, not overly sweet like some I've tasted- but certainly could hold its own.

    I am a Reuben Sandwich aficionado. I give them 10 out of 10! Mine were delivered by DD so cannot speak to ambiance.

    The cider was too sweet, and the pickle beer is a weird choice... okay beer overall. Very friendly staff and fun ambiance.

Great food, great service and just a lot of fun people doing karaoke in the back room. We came on a busy night and we had to wait for 20-30 minutes. During that time I hung up by the fire outside and met some great people. Seems like people come back here every year, cloudcroft is a destination where families meet up during the holidays. Not a great place if you're planning on having a couple beers and driving back to town, it's on a twisted mountain road. The workers are all local, they can definitely give some good advice on nearby activities like hiking and where to get a great view of the sunrise.

We showed up early so we could play games in their brewery area as we wait but they told us we couldn't do that because we had a newborn. (Kinda dumb in my opinion, the kids had to wait outside in the cold, but I get the law). We were already on the waiting list for a table so we didn't have to wait that much longer. Our waitress was kind & fast. We ordered 4 pizzas and I tried two of them. I don't really recommend the pizza; the Greek one tasted odd, had too much pesto, and the Margarita one had way too much cheese & burnt the basil. But my family liked the other two, the Corey & the sweet & salty pizza. My sister who lives in New Mexico made it seem like this was the hopping place to be, which explained why it was so busy for a small town. We brought some games to play but since we were taking up a table for others we didn't play very long. Just enough to finish the pizza. My sister definitely recommends this place!

Called inquiring about reservations, told it's first come first serve and I should expect about a 15-20 min wait. Showed up, 3 adults w/ 3 kids at 5:30. Was told I was the 2nd name behind an 11 top, and should be able to be seated in 5 min due to a few tables just waiting to be cleared upstairs. 20 mins later I watched them clear a 6 top at the front door downstairs, then split it so they could seat two tables of 4 who had shown up after my family. After waiting another 10 min I asked about how long we were looking at, the woman at the door told me she would go upstairs and check on the table, she returned to inform me that I was now looking at probably 20 min before we could be seated. We left... I don't know if the elderly woman working as a hostess at the door is an owner, a wife, family friend, or simply a pity hire due to her old age, but she has no business working customer service at a restaurant. She lied to me and several other groups about wait times, and seating availability only to double down several times about how soon we will be seated. She obviously has zero idea about how food service works, customer service relations, or kitchen service/food service times. Side note: an obviously drunk group of six made their way in during my wait, the bartender had no issue serving them, fingers crossed they weren't driving home, but I doubt anyone is that lucky.
