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

A cute spot with indoor and lots of outdoor patio seating! It was really busy but I was able to order to quickly and waited patiently for my French toast and chai tea latte. Their French toast is only $6.50! You can add the sausage patty for only $2 more. Prices are good, customer service is great, and the vibes are chill. I was super happy with my drink. read more

Nice little small town breakfast spot. Its a convenient stop along the way to Carlsbad Caverns with easy parking, hot food, and coffee. There is spacious outdoor seating and a small amount of indoor seating. You order right through the front door where friendly staff handed us menus so we could choose what we wanted before going to the front. Breakfast Burrito: I loved the size of this, it wasn't too big and the ingredients were well spaced and proportioned. Sausage, egg, potato, and pico with a slice of orange for plating. Coffees: Normal drip coffee that comes burning hot, kept the lid off and it stayed hot for a very long time. Breakfast Bagel: Also a good size. Same ingredients as the burrito and tasted OK. They have a counter up front with backed good, we tried a chocolate chip cookie and it was also OK, tasted better with coffee. read more

*** 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.

The latte coffee was decent, and I liked the amount of chocolate in croissant., which was generous. However, the dough was average. Overall, it was a decent coffee and croissant. read more

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. read more

Blue House Bakery & Cafe - Egg bowl - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Carlsbad, New Mexico

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. read more

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! read more

Blue House Bakery and Cafe is such a hidden gem! This place is quaint, cute, and has that cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger over your coffee. The service was super fast and friendly, and what I really loved was how the menu caters to every type of breakfast eater. Whether you're craving something hearty, light, or low-carb, they've got you covered. They serve up delicious coffee, fresh-made pastries (so good!), tasty sandwiches, and even carbless breakfast options for those watching their carbs. Both the indoor and outdoor seating are great -- lots of charm, and I loved the little cute signs and touches that made the space feel personal and inviting. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to whenever I'm in the area! read more

The food is good,the service is great and the ambiance is serene and special.you should really try this little place off the beatin path.

This deli style cafe has the perfect ambiance! It has that real home town feel! The pastries look delicious! I ordered the croissant sandwich with the Serrano peppers on the side. I'm sorry that I asked for it on the side, for the croissant sandwich was a bit plain without it! I think that for the amount of menu items with peppers in them, they should change their name to Blue chili House instead! There is definitely a niche for this business in the Texmex state! read more

We enjoyed the coffee selection and I had the almond croissant and a breakfast croissant with sausage. Ample seating but this place stays busy, with such a popular spot in town it became a little crammed at times of rush. Overall fun stop when in town read more

Love this adorable house bakery cafe which has homey indoor seating and plenty of outdoor seating amongst trees and an adorable cat name Tarzana. Liked the: -Chocolate mocha -Rosemary (shortbread) cookie -Chocolate chip pecan cookie- thick, crunchy -Breakfast croissant- one of the best croissants I've had in a while. It was soft, super flaky, and buttery delicious. Just ok: -Apple strudel- has icing on it which made it really sweet -Stawberry strudel- not as sweet as the apple strudel. -Drip coffee read more

Can I give this cute little place 10 stars? I wish I could. We came here twice for breakfast because it was so cute and had such a good ambiance. An old house turned into a restaurant is always the best! The first day we went we sat on the outside patio, super cute and the second day we sat on the front porch! I read while we ate. Cute families and couples constantly inside and taking pictures. It's really a cute area. I got the same sandwich both days! Really great prices! I had a really good vanilla coffee, both days! The service was great and very attentive. I can't wait to hopefully come back one day. read more

Super cute place! House turned cafe. The ambiance was cozy. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We didn't sit on the porch but would the future. The service was quick and kind, which is always a plus when you're not local and just stopping through. My dude got a breakfast bowl that looked and tasted great. I got a breakfast burrito with green chilies. That is a huge part of New Mexico. It was good, too. I also got a chai latte. Equally good and not super hot. Overall, good spot to check out. read more

Basic sums it up Their large coffees are a true medium. Stopped two days in a row because there isn't anywhere else to go. Kids had French toast that seemed premade & warmed up. Husband and I had bagel sandwiches. They were fine but nothing to write home about. Cream cheese, syrup, butter all comes prepackaged. Bagels take like frozen lenders bagels. Pastries were ok my family tried 5 different ones but nothing stood out. Service was good. All of them kind and quick. read more

This place is really neat. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. Staff was friendly and courteous. I had the biscuits and gravy which is a Saturday special and I also ordered a breakfast sandwich which was really good. I will definitely be going back. I recommend giving Blue House Bakery a try for brunch, you won't be disappointed. The place is small in size and it does get busy, however they do have outside dining for them beautiful sunny mornings. read more

I really wanted to like this place more, but honestly I came away pretty disappointed relative to my first impression. The "spinach feta croissant" was barely recognizable as a croissant, looking a lot more like (and tasting more like) just a typical bun with filling. And then the filling itself was basically spinach dip, as far as I could tell. It wasn't melted cheese making me think that; it was barely lukewarm. Maybe there was feta in it, but it was undetectable to me. The waffle was fine, I guess, but the "house syrup" was literally a plastic single serve of syrup with the brand name "house" that had the thick viscosity of the cheap syrups. The snickerdoodle was dry and crumbly rather than moist and chewy, though that can be a matter of taste. The breakfast burrito was fine. But there were good things: the sausage patty and rosemary biscuits were both good, service was fast, the community ambience was good (there was a kitty!), and there was a variety of different comfortable places to sit. read more

So my boyfriend and I went through this establishment yesterday on our way to the Caverns. He went in for our coffee and then went back in for food when I asked where the food was. He grabbed a burrito for each of us and it was dripping through the bottom. One was extremely spicy and the other one was at least manageable. Then the coffee maybe it's just the one he got which was the butter scotch one. I even tried whatever my boyfriend had gotten and wasn't impressed. But I usually give places I go to at least 3 chances before I just don't go again. Anyways maybe next time will be better. I will give them that their staff was at least willing to help and very laidback and kind. The shop was cute as well. read more

The food was ok (we found this town to have very poor quality restaurants, overall) but the manager or owner (some older woman) was very rude. We're sitting there, waiting for our drinks to be made and she comes up and demands, "What number are you??" I thought she was a customer wondering where her food is, but she went behind the counter. She again demanded, "What number are you??" And we replied that we weren't given a number. She just shook her head and went about her business. Someone needs to learn how to treat customers. read more

Ambiance is calm and easy. The latte I had was delicious!! I also had a blueberry muffin and bacon, egg, and cheese croissant. All was delicious! The above cost me about $13.00 read more

Place is awesome. Good atmosphere, delish coffee. Hot breakfast (egg bowl, French toast) a little pricey for quantity, but tastes great. Only had one thing that was horribly bland, Do Not get the Strawberry Shortcake muffins. Dry, flavorless. Almost asked for my money back but just through it away since it was my daughters anyway. She didn't even want it. She's 9, she doesn't throw away many sweet, pastry, baked goods type items. No biggie. It's trial and error at a lot of these places. Just can't understand why their cookies and everything else is so delicious but that muffin is so bad. Anyway, it's slowly becoming my spot on the weekends. Try it, you'll enjoy. read more
