This place was so cute! My coworker recommended it to me and when I first heard the name, I was a bit uncertain, imagining that this was some kind of coffeeshop with a crash murder theme...it wasn't until I clicked into their website that I realized crash murder business was something else! *No spoilers, check it out yourself! We tried a couple of different coffeeshops around Santa Fe, and this one was our favorite by far. I got the Murmuration of Starlings and it tasted just like the name! It was sweet without being too sweet and the rosemary, thyme and cardamom gave it a unique twist. This place is on the smaller side and there's not a whole lot of seating, although they do have a few outdoor spots. Our coffee orders also took a little bit to get, but we enjoyed that time reading their newspaper and coloring in their coloring book! Would definitely return here if I am in the area. read more

This was a happy accident. I was walking to the train station to leave Santa Fe and this quirky little coffee shop was grabbing my attention. The logo drew me in, and I thought "screw it. I'll taste their drip coffee and if it isn't any good, I'll keep going to the one I had planned." Listen, it's becoming more difficult to come by a good pour over, but good drip is like finding a unicorn. Not at Crash + Murder. The service was fantastic as barista allowed me a sip so I could make my call. It was delicious. read more

Cutest, coolest cafe I have found in Santa Fe. Belinda was so friendly and helpful, and the drinks were so unique and bold. I recommend the Snuggle of Sloths with the hazelnut. Love the long live edge bench. Come here if you're looking for something different and awesome. read more

I ordered the iced unicorn. It was supposed to have whipped cream and sparkling glitter on top. When I got my drink it was more like a donkey. No horn, no sparkles, just a plain ol average latte with nothing special about it. If they couldn't make it the way it's meant to be made the cashier should jet you know up front and give you the opportunity to order something else special and magical.They have to know you're coming in for the aesthetics. The entire menu is built around it. I could have got a cup of coffee like this in any shop.. extremely disappointed. read more

My kiddo found this spot while we were passing through town and it was a delightful treat. Inventive fascinating flavor combinations that did not disappoint. I loved the Crash Of Rhinos, teen loved the Lounge of Lizards. The chocolate shop next door also worth a visit. read more

Really amazing coffee, Santa Fe has suuuuch good coffee here. The store is next to someone's office, and if you walk down the hall you can see an art gallery. The girls making the coffee were super helpful to answer what each drink was & what was most popular. I ordered the crash of rhinos coffee to drink in person. Lots of seating areas and we saw some women meeting to knit & sit around! Great place to meet friends & hang out over great coffee read more

A few weeks ago, my wife and I went with our son from Rio Rancho to Santa Fe on the train. He goes every Saturday to Santa Fe for the day. His first stop is here where he took us, Crash Murder Business, coffee house. He orders a specialty drink and works on his laptop for a while. The coffee house specialty drink menu is incredible, lots of creativity in their selection. My wife had the Streak of Tigers: espresso, milk, curry, black pepper, cacao and maple syrup, served hot. I had their Crash of Rhinos: espresso, maple syrup, grass fed butter, milk and cardamom, served hot. Our son had Skulk of Foxes: turmeric, chai and ginger. Now we know why our son goes there every weekend. The drinks are spectacular, cozy small funky place with great service, displaying beautiful art. read more

This coffee shop sets the bar really high! Every detail is well thought out. This includes everything from the name of the business, decor, and flavor combinations inside of their beverages. Several of the coffee drinks caught my eye and I think I would have been happy with almost any of the ones they had on the menu. I ultimately ordered an iced version of the Streak of Tigers (Espresso, milk, curry, black pepper, cacao, maple syrup). If you enjoy flavors that are more on the spicy side and bolder, this drink would be a wonderful option for you. I took my drink to go, but the atmosphere inside the coffee shop was very calming. I highly recommend this cafe. read more

My love affair with coffee shops is no secret, but cute branding and a cute space, I am sold. On a recent trip to Santa Fe while we were waiting for our chosen brunch spot to open right now the street, decided to stop in Crash Murder Business to kill some time and start the morning off with a good cup of coffee to combat the chill from the snow outside. I really enjoyed the menu and the creative names for all the special lattes here. Each is themed after an animal and features unique flavors. I ordered the one with cardamom and maple, crash of rhinos, which was absolutely perfect. read more

We are going to this great little cafe at least three times while we're in Santa Fe. The coffee is great and they know what they're doing. You'll need to go into the cafe to fully understand the menu; we enjoyed a Rafter of Turkeys (a seasonal pumpkin spice latte), a Murmuration of Starlings (rosemary and thyme latte), and a Streak of Tigers (curry latte). All were amazing, with subtle flavors and nothing too strong or sickly. They don't use syrups here - everything is house-made. It's a small cafe with interesting seating. The staff is nice and welcoming, and although it can be a little quiet, it's a lovely place to pass some time. We hope they're here for a long time! read more

Unlike the other happy reviews, our experience was mostly frustrating. We had driven to the location, and once we reached the address, we saw nothing resembling a coffee shop or any signage to that effect. We saw a sign for an artists gallery and a sign for chocolate and Kashmir, but we saw nothing having anything to do with coffee. And the name was just so bizarre that we were pretty sure Google Maps had led us astray, and that this was in fact, not a coffee shop. Ultimately, we got out of our car and started walking and came upon the sign near the door, which is not visible from across the street when Parking one's car. And the signsign that hangs over the sidewalk simply has the company logo on it which just looks like a rhinoceros with a raven and whatever the other animal is. It meant absolutely nothing to us. It has zero lettering on it. Not the name of the company not the word Coffee. It like a cruel inside joke. Why make your place a business so hard to find!? And once we got in to the establishment, there was no one at the register and then when she finally showed up, she said "I recommend the number 4", but there were no numbers on the menu. And there was next to nothing to eat to go with our drinks. The drinks were yummy, but there was not much room in the establishment, and our table was dirty. All in all, I probably will not go back. The obtuse name and the utter lack of signage for newcomers, turned me off. It felt like a place that was for intended only for locals. read more

This place perfectly encompasses what Sante Fe is all about. A small very quaint coffee shop with a variety of seating areas. The specialty coffees are obviously what I came for and they delivered! The baristas were very kind and offered help when needed. The tiger was the most unusual coffee I've ever had, had a curry flavor, it was lovely if you like curry. The rhino would be the one I'd offer for those who want something unique but not too unusual. If a place ever has a cardamon latte, get it! Love this place and their coffee, definitely a fun stop while you are exploring Sante Fe. read more

I love the ridiculousness of the business name and menu. Santa Fe has a great sense of humor and this fits in perfectly. It took me a while to get from my first impression of the name, "How funny, an anti business business" - very Santa Fe - to the animal flock theme behind it, with the various coffee and tea flavoring combos being named the well known - Murder of Crows, Crash of Rhinos - to the entertaining, like the Maelstrom of Axlotls, Glory of Unicorns, and Skulk of Foxes. They were perfectly fine with me working on my laptop in there, with good wifi and a quiet environment, occasionally punctuated by, "Hannah, Parliament of Owls?" It's just the right amount of entertainment when you're busy working. The coffee was good and as you expect in New Mexico the spice in coffees that add it, is real. read more

Super cute spot, very accessible and walkable, and great service. The drinks are amazing and the staff is super accommodating. We got different special lattes and shared the quiche. They were both delicious and it was super filling. Will definitely be back to enjoy more and try new drinks! read more

I won't lie, when I looked at the menu I was skeptical since the drinks seem pretty out there but I'm so glad I went. My partner and I tried several different drinks and they were all fantastic. The flavor combinations are really well done in a way that's interesting and tasty but doesn't outshine the nice espresso taste either. read more

Came by to try some of these unique coffee drinks! Truly unique was advertised, and this promise was delivered on! Here's the description of the drink I got: "Race of Roadrunners Single origin organic cacao from Ghana, local red Chile, espresso, milk, coconut sugar, smoked sea salt. Somehow intense and comforting, both." A tad sweeter than I liked but so interesting and full of flavor!! Wow. The decor of the space was fun and whimsical. The lady who took our order and served our drinks with helpful with answering our questions and friendly. A really unique spot I highly recommend visiting! read more

Whimsical, wacky little coffee shop but that's got all its own vibe and titling of drinks. Feel like anything goes in this shop with their boombox- blasting music and sideways mail-drop at the front door. Got the Crash of Rhinos and Murmuration of Starlings which were both yummy and creamy though tasted way too similar for some reason. Recommend choosing two different drinks. Long table seating and cushy chairs and a big wooden bench, easy to hang here for hours. 5 stars!!! read more

We came here on our way to the plaza on a Friday morning. I was really drawn to this coffee shop for their creative drinks. I got the Murmation of Starlings, which was a latte with rosemary thyme syrup. I've had a similar drink before, and I really liked it overall, not to sweet. My husband had a regular Mocha which was made with Ghirardelli's sauce. I was a little disappointed in the limited pastry/breakfast options, so we ended up just grabbing our coffee and going to another shop for food. The service was also a bit slow, but that's because there was only one woman running both the register and preparing our drinks. read more

It's so nice when a coffee shop lives up to the hype. This tiny shop was only a five minute walk from my motel. The inside is small but charming, with a few armchairs and tables. I ordered a murmuration of starlings, iced, and it was divine. The bacon quiche was also excellent. My barista was very nice and brought the drinks out as they were finished. Since I'm in town for a few days, I will probably be back. I took another iced latte to go & it was just as delicious as the first. Overall, the experience was cozy, unique, lovely. read more

A great little spot downtown for a hang out, to get some work done, or just get a quick drink. This space has lots of character and good amount of seating despite how small the place is. I got a Skulk of Foxes which is similar to a turmeric latte. I have been searching town for a good turmeric latte and I think this is it! It was delicious with spice forward, which I love. My waitress did ask if I wanted spice forward or not so you can have the option. Will definitely come again. Just a bummer you have to pay for street parking and if you are working for a while it can get pricey but still worth it. read more

I really liked the name of this place and wanted to drop by! Their menu is really interesting and the names are absolutely wild! I went with the race of roadrunners because it had red chili in it! And boy, I loved this drink! My friend got the same drink and she didn't exactly love her, but I'll just say taste buds are different and she's very sensitive to spice. Very non hurried quaint coffee shop with cocktail like coffee drinks! read more

Such a cute, fun, whimsical, unique, creative coffee shop! If you are looking for a plain cup of coffee... this might be overkill for you. If you are looking for a unique coffee or tea drink, this is the place for you! So many cool options to choose from and I didn't ask but I would assume they could and would customize something for you. I wish we had more time to hang out... but we were headed to Meow Wolf so we just ordered and headed out. What's also very cool is there is a little (separate) shop connected to the coffee shop that makes handmade cashmere goods and has some amazing chocolate truffles. Coffee, Chocolate, Cashmere... all in one building. Score! read more

This cafe is truly one of the best in Santa Fe. The drinks are exceptional : made with high quality ingredients. It is one of our treats to come here once a week and enjoy a part of the Santa Fe community. The staff is the best!!!

And Brook is equally a gem of a human : never a moment where we do don't feel welcomed and nourished by the drinks and people that work here. Thank you!!! read more

I really liked this place. Unique little coffee shop with a poetic feel. They offer very unique, earthy flavors that immediately captured my attention. We went with a latte - Murmuration Starling - iced and hot, both delicious. Flavors were subtlety sweet and did not mask the delicious coffee flavor. On this day service was sweet but slow. Only one person taking orders and make the drinks. With several customers in line and limited seating the place was quickly crowded. From what I could tell, limited parking as well. I didn't see any out side seating. I'd love to return and venture into the other coflavors they offer. read more

Visited crash murder business when I was in New Mexico in November and have thought about their coffee everyday since (it's currently February). Ordered their Streak of Tigers and it was uniquely decadent and delicious. The coffee shop vibe was cozy and whimsical, a spot where you could definitely sit for a while with a book or catching up with a friend. Only complaint is that they weren't open the Sunday we were there so we only got to go on Saturday, which just wasn't enough. I seriously cannot recommend Crash Murder Business enough! read more

We've been blessed with a new coffee shop in Santa Fe. I've been a couple times and haven't felt daring enough to try one of their unique drinks but have gotten an iced mocha and an iced vanilla latte. Both have given me confidence to put this shop in my regular rotation. And any place with "coffee ice cubes" usually wins me over pretty quick. The balance of espresso and sweetness is spot on. Friendly staff with a laid back vibe and sense of humor. Beautiful and quiet space to meet with a friend or do some work. Serving pastries from Chocolate Maven which people seem to have polarizing opinions about but at least you know they are local and fresh if looking for a quick snack. Great little shop! read more
