    *** solid Saturday breakfast destination with indoor & outdoor seating *** Blue House Bakery & Cafe in Carlsbad, NM, had free street parking all around. Just be careful as this is not what I would refer to as a pedestrian-friendly town. This place gets packed inside... A bit claustrophobic at the register. Order and pay right away inside the cafe up the stairs to the large porch. Sorry, I didn't check for a ramp or how mobile-friendly the place is, but inside it was rather crammed with minimal seats and tables. We sat outside under the large canopy. After about 5 minutes, our food was brought out to us. My youngest daughter wolfed down her relatively large bacon/cheese/egg burrito. A small iced mocha latte made her happy. My oldest girl ordered an egg bowl. She was not happy that the green chile was on the hot side. Her sister and I sometimes wonder if she's really related to us. Lol. Small hot chocolate. I opted for the special: biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were large and fluffy with really fantastic cream gravy with spicy sausage. I was in Heaven. Especially since I didn't have to clean the kitchen. My medium vanilla latte was alright. Altogether our meals came out to $43.60 with a tip included on 10.4.2025. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 4 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4

    Would have liked to give this place a 3.5 rather than a 3. Food: We ordered the egg bowl, breakfast burrito, latte, and coffee. We though the green chile would make the egg bowl and breakfast burrito more tasty but they weren't too flavorful. It was also not immediately clear what the cold drink options were, and we realized too late, ordering only hot drinks on a hot summer day. Ambiance: Great for families. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Service: Nice staff.

    Cute breakfast stop before heading to Carlsbad Caverns. I like that this bakery & cafe is set in a cozy house. You can see the beauty of the house in the ceiling, windows, door, and big porch! It gives dining in a homey and comfortable feeling. Lines were very long in the morning, but service was quick and friendly! This place has a lot of hype as a breakfast and coffee spot, however, I was not all that impressed with breakfast. Both the egg bowl & bagel sandwich were very "liquidy" and not very flavorful. I did however like having asparagus as an optional add-in. As for coffee, I was disappointed that this cafe relies solely on pre-bought/bottled syrups. It would really be special if they offered at least a couple of house-made syrups of their own. Because of this, I didn't get a latte, and settled for regular hot coffee instead, which was good. On a positive note, I would say Blue House really shines in their baked goods! My carrot cake muffin was delicious, as was the raspberry croissant. I'd go back again simply to get more baked goods! Overall, I enjoyed my breakfast at Blue House. The atmosphere and pastries were the highlights for sure. This is a good spot if you want a simple breakfast to get you started.

    Happy baristas!

    We were looking for a cozy breakfast spot to get excellent coffee and great breakfast and this was perfect. And they had some gluten-free options. The baristas were extremely friendly and the place had a really positive vibe to it. Lots of outdoor seating. And on street parking. If I could give this place a 10 rating I would!

    Adorable little cafe with delicious coffee, fresh pastries and made to order breakfast items like oatmeal, breakfast burritos and breakfast sandwiches. They also have an incredible selection of coffee syrups to concoct any combo you could dream up! Oh, and the two cute kitties made my kiddos morning!

    We came in today for breakfast, was just ok.... No room to sit unless u want to eat outside in the heat, no thanks. Overall cute spot, but not for us unfortunately. (We took our food to go)

    A solid spot for Carlsbad, they offer lattes, baked goods, and various breakfast options. Given the options in the area and price, Blue House is great option for breakfast. They offer outdoor seating too.

    Simple n easy type breakfast It's small portion but cheap so you can't go wrong Casual vibe where you order first and sit where you want

    So many delicious pastries

    Blue House Bakery and cafe was cozy and delicious. The restaurant itself is very small but the outside area has plenty of seating. The service is great, food and coffee came out quickly. They have so many pastry options that looked delicious! I ordered the egg, potato and cheese croissant- it was sooo good, croissant was soft and buttery. I got their French toast to try, and it was also yummy. Highly recommended this spot for breakfast!

    The dirty chai from here was perfection and the pastry items were amazing. Service was friendly in this quiet, sleepy town.
