    You got to counter and order drinks and food. They called your name to pickup drinks and bring you food. It took a long time, however the drinks in carved pumpkins were a hit. They charged 4+ dollars for the pumpkins. My wife and daughter got pumpkin coffee latte drinks and I got an iced tea. The peach flavoring was very week. My chicken and waffles were excellent. My wife liked her breakfast burrito. My daughter a fruit bowl. Nice ambiance. They also had bagel and cream cheese ans pastries.

    Viral pumpkin chai in a pumpkin

    4.5 stars Came here to try the viral pumpkin drinks (served in a pumpkin). My friend and I came yesterday afternoon, but they were already sold out (best to come before 12:30 they said). It's a cute little shop with easy parking and plenty of outdoor seating. I got the cranberry Italian soda yesterday, which was good but thought it could've used a little bit of a stronger flavor. My friend got the decaf coffee. I came back this morning and got the pumpkin spiced chai (comes with whipped cream) for my pumpkin and it wasn't too busy overall. The pumpkins come in one size, so with the charge for the 20 oz chai (didn't think the mini pumpkin could hold that much) and the upcharge for the pumpkin cup and tax, came out to a little more than $10. At first, wasn't sure if it was worth it, but the chai had good flavor to it (I think having it in a real pumpkin brought out the pumpkin flavor ecven more). A man who I believe was the manager or owner personally came out to check on me and the other girl who was sitting on the patio to see if there was anything we needed and to deter any loiterers. Perfect day to spend sippin' on the patio 2025 #77

    Cool vibes inside. Lots of windows letting in the sun. Street parking just outside. Small brunch menu, but inventive items. Headed there after a Halloween Pumpkin themed Race for iced pumpkin lattes in a real pumpkin. So cool and refreshing! Great place to chat with friends or bring your laptop to some work.

    A perfect cup!

    You know that moment you find a place you instantly know you will return to- Welcome to Burning Daylight! You order at the coffee counter and you have your choice of seats; counter, tables, bar (full bar coming in a few months), and some cool nooks/crannies that include short couches and lounge chairs. Plenty of outdoor space as well. I opted for a flat white and it took me back to the flat whites found in Europe. They have a simple but sufficient breakfast menu. I had to try their breakfast burrito and tried both red and green chile. The chile was perfectly flavored (!) with the green having a little more bite than the red. Burrito was too big for me to finish, but I believe my husband would not have had a problem finishing it. Staff was super friendly, even though they were busy, they chatted with almost everyone. You could tell they had a number of regulars coming in as their conversations were much more personable. Right across from the courthouse, downtown area or a short drive from UNM. This is my new place.

    We overheard Burning Daylight's owner sharing about his shop while we were at Caffe Enzo recently and decided to stop there. I'm pretty sure I ordered an iced mocha, but I got an iced latte with some kind of sweetener instead. It was really good but I couldn't taste any chocolate, which I didn't really notice until I was most of the way done. Dh enjoyed his hot chocolate. I didn't try it but it looked good. I'm looking forward to visiting them when they move to their new location.

    Visited Burning Daylight this morning for the first time and loved everything about it! The location, the decor, the vibe, the service, the food and the coffee were all fantastic! My wife and I had an excellent experience and we will be back soon to try more of their options. This morning I had the breakfast sandwich with bacon and green chili, my wife had the breakfast burrito, also with bacon and both red and green chili, which was super spicy and delicious! For drinks we had coffees which were both full of flavor! We will be back soon, everyone needs to try this place!

    I recently visited Albuquerque and came across an amazing coffee shop with a vintage vibe. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and filled with character and charm. The owner Charles is incredibly friendly and welcoming--it really makes a difference and adds to the overall experience. The coffee is brewed to perfection and the breakfast burrito with the green sauce gets 10 stars! A perfect spot for a relaxing break, working space (outlets available for your laptop charging) or catching up with friends. I liked this spot so much I visited nearly everyday during my stay. Beer and wine coming soon. The bar area is super nice and is quite the vibe. Highly recommend!

    The food was amazing , and they were good serving sizes probably could of shared since I wasn't starving atm The coffee and the service was great

    The coffee is absolutely fantastic and made with care. The space is such a gem-- modern yet rustic, with a cozy vibe that makes you want to stay for a while. I love all the thoughtful details, from the unique glassware to the abundance of outlets (a win if you're working or studying). This is the kind of place where you can relax with a book, catch up with a friend, or get some work done. I'll definitely be back!

    Burning Daylight is a super unique place! It's a place for coffee, relaxation..and even antique/cool item browsing/shopping all at the same time! From the outside, it doesn't look like a cafe (the place's appearance from the outside looks so unassuming..but inside..there's a lot of character!). The owner of the shop told me Burning Daylight is just 9 months old (as of Oct) and I really like this place already! They are open 7 days a week..and from the morning til afternoon! The place is also cozy...that you can just come in..grab your coffee/snacks to go...do your work (hello, free and available wifi!), catch up with friends (comfy+ cute cozy seats) and/or do your home decor shopping! Lots of parking outside since there's a huge parking lot in front of the shop as well! Overall, I'm so glad I found this gem through Yelp. I would never have guessed there's such a cool + friendly coffee shop like Burning Daylight inside..but hey...that's what a real gem is like right? Check it out if you can..lots of options for your cafe drinks (and snacks) in such a welcoming atmospherein midtown area.

    Love the murals in the seating area

    This is an amazing little gem tucked away downtown. The pineapple danish was such a unique treat,…read moredelicate puff pastry. The Sandia Peak with oat milk and sugar-free vanilla was rally refreshing. The staff was kind, and willing to walk me through the menu as a first timer. The location was clean and there was a lot of parking available on a Friday morning. I had a work meeting and this location did not have music blasting or too much ambiance. I could have my meeting in peace with joyous food! 10/10 recommend

Always love supporting small, local spots that have that kind of story behind them. I tried their Aztec Latte, one of their signature drinks made with espresso, sweetened condensed milk, and cinnamon. I was a little unsure at first since I'm not a big fan of cinnamon, but it ended up being super mild and creamy. We also got the Red Chili Mocha, which has espresso, milk, red chili, and chocolate. I expected more of a kick from the chili, but it was actually on the milder side as well. Since it was a little chilly in Albuquerque, we went for hot lattes, which definitely hit the spot. We split a couple of toasts too. The avocado toast came with hummus, avocado, and a drizzle of sriracha. I liked that the hummus was the base instead of just plain avocado. I think it added a nice creamy layer that worked perfectly with the sourdough and spice. The Caprese toast was classic: pesto, mozzarella, balsamic, and tomatoes. Also a solid choice. The vibe inside was really chill. People were working on laptops, chatting quietly, low music in the background. The walls had artwork from a local artist, which was a nice touch. The baristas were very friendly. Service was on point.
