Passing through on our way north on the turquoise trail, we stopped here because our hotel coffee was so inferior. So glad we stopped in! After a vanilla latte and a caramel latte, all was right with the world. There was a bit of a wait for our drinks because several folks beat us in the door. No worries, it gives you time to peruse the art on the walls. Cozy, bright and unpretentious, with a patio deck if you want to enjoy your coffee or tea with a view of the surrounding beauty. Friendly service and really wonderful flavor to the coffee! Next time I'm in the area, I'm definitely coming back! read more

Great Customer Service and very relaxing seating areas in and outdoor available. They made a perfect Cortado plus they have plenty of food selections. Something for everyone and great vibes. read more

Umm did I just find the best coffee shop in the ABQ area?! Seriously this spot is so good. I got a whole milk latte with blueberry syrup and honestly it was heavenly. The fact that their syrup is made by them pushes it over the top. Nice staff, great coffee, cute shop & great views. 10/10 you have to try it out! read more

So I just moved to ALB in August. I've passed this place probably 6-12 times as I go up for a hike on the sandia crest. I finally stopped by on a Saturday morning after a hike with my daughter (6 months), she won't remember this. However you will if you go. It's a super cute coffee shop, with a lovely wooden/mountain-ish vibe. I thought it was awesome. The barista's are awesome, and even had a conversation with me about hiking wheeler peak (easy-difficult etc). I'm excited to do that hike next week. I got an oatmilk PSL. Yup, the white girl in me loves the season flavors. It was delicious, tasty, and the foam art. I mean, They do such nice foam art, but I was on the go, so the appreciation is there. I just didn't share it with any. I thought this place was great, the view, location, and coffee. I cannot wait for winter time for hot chocolate there on a snowy mountain. read more

Adorable little coffee place. We found it after we brought some visitors to Tinkertown. It was a Sunday and they were open. Delicious coffee and the orange scone was pretty darned good.

Cabra Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cedar Crest, New Mexico

Cabra coffee has been on my list for quite a while now and so I was delighted to finally have a chance to check them out. I decided to stop by before driving up the back of the mountain with a friend. They conveniently have a drive-through, which was very nice considering how much snow we have gotten recently and all the mud in the parking lot. There are posted menus that you can read before you get to the window and I decided to get a breakfast burrito as well as a 12 ounce lavender latte. I will say the coffee smelt amazing and it was a really good latte but the size felt small. I would probably get a 16 ounce next time around and hopefully will return when the weather isn't so gross so that I can enjoy the interior. The building was really cute from the outside and very convenient to get to right off the main road. As for the breakfast burrito, as someone who has lived in New Mexico, their entire life and eaten a solid amount of breakfast burritos, I've never seen such a paper thin burrito. It was basically 75% tortilla. For $4.50 I absolutely would not purchase another one. The chile was decently spicy but really overall not great. read more

This is such a cute coffee shop out on the east mountains! My husband and I were stay in the mountains for a weekend getaway, and as usual, I got to check my coffee map. Cabra was an unexpected find for somewhere out in the mountain. We stopped by for our morning coffee/tea and breakfast and were a little surprised by how full it is. It feels like not merely a local coffee center but a hub where people near by come to work, talk, and meet. Will come back if we're in the area again read more

We stopped at Cabra Coffee to get some fuel for our drive from Albuquerque to Santa Fe and it was a great stop to make ! Location/parking: It's right off the road and very easy to get to! Especially since we weren't familiar with the area at all, we appreciated how easy it was to access. There's tons of parking as well Environment/ space: There's a lot of outside seating with covered patio space. When we stopped there wasn't much traffic on the road (I can't imagine There's ever much traffic) and there was a lovely breeze flowing through as well. The interior has quite a bit of seating and one really cute nook with string lights in it. There's also some great photography available for sale around the place that ties back to nature which I loved ! Coffee: The Coffee is amazing ! It's probably some of the best coffee we've had ! It's made really well and the flavors are so good. I also got a tea which was equally delicious. Also, they do have a drive through window ! Overall the place is cute and a great stop on the route if you need some coffee. read more

Great little coffee shop in Cedar Crest. Stopped for a cappuccino before hiking. Friendly service and a great cup! Definitely worth a stop.

We've gone here when it was Kokopelli's so it's been many years. Cabra Cafe has great coffee, food, and chai. We often go here with our dog, order some food and coffee and sit out on the patio. Then we walk our dog on the nearby trailhead. It's a pleasant ride from Albuquerque and in the winter, it often snows. So pretty. Highly recommend! read more

Friggin love this place! Super kind, cool and helpful staff, great coffee and espresso drinks. Really great mountain ambience with plenty of outdoor seating. Also amazing fresh baked goods, the scones are my favorite but the cookies and muffins are exceptional as well. I also highly recommend the little burritos! No place like this in the area. Can't go wrong read more

Dear you & also future me, you need coffee and a have time for a short scenic drive. You might as well go here where the coffee and the people will greet you with kindness. This time I just had drip coffee and a lemon poppyseed scone, but next time, should enjoy a latte "for here," as they looked amazing. read more

Cabra Coffee - By the shaded outside seating area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cedar Crest, New Mexico

I'd never stopped here myself to get coffee but always had co-workers or friends stop by here. I ordered a lavender latte and it was wonderful as well as a gluten-free coconut macaroon. I wish there were more options for gluten-free, but I understand it isn't feasible or affordable for small coffee shops to have a wide selection. The coffee was at a great temperature and was wonderful. I was a little confused by a $0.75 upcharge if you wanted an iced version of a drink, as it isn't much more work nor extra costs that are prohibitive for a business. I worked in a small coffee shop during college and it was just as much time to prepare cold as hot drinks, we even used iced coffee cubes to prevent dilution. The drive-thru line was fairly slow, which is the deduction of my star. I waited over 30 minutes and had I realized how long the line would have been, it would have been better for me time-wise and environmentally wise to not run my car waiting. Overall a great place. I also appreciate that when visiting smaller places like this, I am much less likely to get dairied by accident and spend the rest of my day out of service. read more

I have seen this place a few times and wondered about it. Today I didn't make my brew at home and decided we should support our local coffee house. We enjoyed the Beautiful drive to Cedar Crest. I had a Vanilla Iced Latte that was perfectly delicious. My daughter ordered a cold brew lavender coffee that she said was strong with an airy taste. So glad we stopped but make sure you don't blink or you'll miss the drive thru read more

Coffee is mediocre and they are soooooo sloooowwww. Omg they are slow. Slow slow slow slow slow slow slow.

Unexpected phenomenal find outside of Albuquerque! We stumbled across this gem in the mountains during our drive from Montana back to Texas. In an almost 2000 mile road trip, this was hands down the best coffee we've had since we left home. For the true coffee lover, this spot met every expectation. Their house made syrups were a sweet treat too. Oh, speaking of sweet treats - the baked good were delicious too! Lastly, the staff was kind and knowledgeable! Glad we took the detour! read more

Great coffee shop in Cedar Crest. Perfect after skiing, running, or biking the Sandias. Right next to the brewery as well. They have a homemade lavender syrup that is amazing; highly recommend a lavender americano. Unfortunately burritos weren't great, but I've only tried it once. Very cute inside and a nice patio in the summer. Also has a drive thru. read more

Funky vibe, good coffee. Clearly a local favorite. Has baked goods and delicious treats. Worth a.stop.

Truly the best coffee in the ABQ-Bernalillo area and East Mountains. I have felt this way for several years now. I am a bit of a coffee snob and while I do have my favorite neighborhood cafes in the Q, Cabra stays in my heart as the best espresso I've had since living in New Mexico. I consult my "treat horseshoe", wherein I will travel a distance to get a tasty beverage if I am having a REALLY GOOD day or a REALLY AWFUL day. Cabra is my destination. Ambience can't be beat, somehow it's always poppin in here despite being 20 minutes out from the city. Great views of the mountains. I think the coffee tastes even better on a chilly winter morning on their patio. Anyway, lavender is having its moment in coffee and this is the only lavender latte you should bother with. So serious. It's not too sweet, not too soapy, it's just right. Also-- they have a drive-thru! read more

Best coffee in the East Mountains! Easy drive through and quick service. The house made white mocha is my favorite, double chocolate chip cookies are a close second. read more

This little local shop is the perfect little joint for Cedar Crest. It has indoor (currently not allowed) and outdoor dining space to sip your cup of joe on. They also carry some breakfast burritos and some pastries made in shop, some of which are even gluten free. It's a great meet up spot if you plan to do some business, too. The few times I've used their bathrooms, they are always clean and well maintained. The crew are always friendly and are courtesy to ensure they are taking customers first come first served. They have a nice drive through where they are keeping things pretty COVID safe. Rad place, I'll return. read more

Cabra Coffee - Menu - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cedar Crest, New Mexico

The best coffee shop in the East Mountains! We've been out here for 25 years and this is the best coffee and the best service that has ever opened up out here. Everything from the drip and pour over coffee to the lattes is fantastic. I think they make their own syrups in house and it really makes for flavorful rich drinks. Their gingerbread latte at Christmas time is delightful. My go to in the summer is their lavender latte. The service is always outstanding. In fact, they often have my husbands order ready to go before he even gets to the order window! It's adorable inside and it's got a great view of the mountain! The patio is particularly nice right now. They also have really tasty burritos and locally made baked goods. Soooo good! read more

Perfect cross between modern chic and quiet mountain getaway. Right in the backyard of the Sandia mountain town of Cedar Crest, you can grab a coffee on your way to a hike or to ski. The espresso was rich. They had alternate options for dairy, which was appreciated. Their baked goods were fresh and light. Their Italian sodas were also perfectly blended. Will definitely stop here more often when needing a quiet getaway from the humdrum of Abq. read more

While camping in the area I came across Cabra Coffee. Great little coffee/eats joint. Nice, friendly service, good coffee and even though I did not try any a very delicious looking assortment of breakfast muffins/treats. I stopped in every morning of my trip and enjoyed the coffee and the quiet, quaint atmosphere while reading my book. A popular place, many patrons would come and go, drive through line stayed stacked. I would recommend the Cabra Coffee to anyone! read more
