Visited Taos for a night and decided to get coffee at this cute little shop in the morning. Super friendly workers! The coffee was just fabulous, I had an oat milk latte and a chocolate chip almond scone. read more

The staff was very helpful and explained the different specialty drinks to us. We ended up trying four different ones. They were all good. The place was clean and had some seating areas where you could sit and drink your coffee. There was also seating outside. read more

This was such a cute intimate coffee shop. We went based on a friends recommendation and I'm so glad we did. I got the orange mocha that I still think about til this day. Can't wait til the next time we're in Taos to get one again. Although it's a small space they have space for sitting inside and out. With cute decor and plants throughout. They were pretty busy the day we went and still managed to get drinks done fairly quickly even with a wave of guests. read more

Fairly slow on making drinks. Atmosphere is very open. Very busy with every table taken except one on a Monday at 11am. Americano was pretty good. Golden milk was very earthy and not sweet at all. London fog was nice and perfect amount of sweetness. Good pastries next door. read more

Good coffee. So, so atmosphere, Staff seems deep in thought and not as friendly as I expected. just not over the top friendly, though executable i guess. The mood in the shop was lively at times and very subdued other times. Probably not a bad to get some work done. I was in daily for a week. So never enough to know for sure but, that's my take. I would recommend for a good cup of coffee read more

I wanted a quick coffee and noticed this place near our hotel. Glad I stopped. It had a comfortable ambience inside which I took a mental note of for another time since I needed to take my coffee to-go that day. I ordered El Tigre Mocha (with oatmilk) made from espresso, dark chocolate, and fresh orange extract. I must say it was as good as it sounds. Just the right amount of sweetness for my taste. There are several interesting things on the menu: Bischocito Latte and Raspberry Hibiscus herbal tea, for example. I like that the barista took the time to create a heart design on top of my coffee. And I also like that the location is right nextdoor to a bakery. read more

Found this little jewel. My friend and I both got lattes. We liked them so much that we went the next day. I ordered the lavender and my friend ordered the chocolate orange. read more

Love the vibe in here, all the plants. Very relaxing and chill. Great cappuccinos. Rose latte was good, not strong enough on flavor for me but worth trying. The teas are a bit weak. I like a strong tea though. Nice people here, work quickly too. read more

Great place for matcha lovers. I loved their Ube Matcha. Ambiance is relaxing. Service was quick and nice. The cafe has many seating inside and outside, but can get crowded when busy. read more

We tried five different coffee shops on our recent stay in Taos. This visit was on our way out and did not disappoint! Super clean and welcoming inside, serving up great drinks. I personally love a strong and bold espresso drink. I ordered a standard 12 oz drink that was good from their specialty menu. I wanted an extra shot but was told I had to order two, as they are pulled in pairs. I should have gone for it so I could really taste the flavor of their espresso beans. read more

I was pleasantly surprised to find this little coffee shop on my road trip. It's a cute spot with unique lattes you won't find anywhere else, a nice relaxing space to sit and chill for a while, and friendly baristas. If you're in the Taos area, it's a must. read more

What an adorable place! I overheard the guy behind the counter patiently and sweetly take his time explaining cold brew to an inquiring patron, what service! It made me order the cold brew and it did not disappoint. Next time we're hiking/backpacking in the area, we will visit again! read more

First of all, I love the clever name of this establishment. These people know how to make coffee and their prices are reasonable. The fellow who took our order was friendly and accommodating although the barista was a little snappy when we asked for nondairy milk. I wish these places would keep out the nondairy milk alongside the half and half. Prepare for the fact that you might not get a seat inside the coffee shop. It's small and pokey and single customers take up tables meant for four people. read more

We went seeking breakfast. Not easy to find in Taos! We found the Bread Club (next door in the same building) and went in only to find out they have only food but that customers are encouraged to buy food there and bring it to this coffee shop. This place is just for locals I think. There isn't a menu and no signs. The people are cold and aloof. We got iced coffee and earl grey tea. Both tasted a little off. read more

my favorite coffee shop in new mexico. they are always kind and make delicious and consistent coffee. i also love to take home whole beans for my espresso machine at home. read more

Best cortado I've ever had. Yelp won't let me say just that, I need 85 characters, but that's all you need to know. Go find out for yourself!! read more

I love their coffee menu. Nothing compared to Starbucks. Way better. They have small selection of pastries options but they look high quality scones and empanadas read more

A really nice place for a morning coffee! The coffee is good, the pastries are super yummy and the ambiance is good. I love the way the sunlight comes into the cafe in the mornings and you can sit at a bar right in the window. The place is always filled with people but in a good way. They don't have full meals/a kitchen if that is what you are looking for. They also don't have super free syrup options, but that is just a me problem! read more

I've been coming in a few months now, every so often, always to get a single origin Americano. I never stay to hang out, I tip well, and I am quiet and courteous while I wait for my coffee. I've never had a problem with the service until today. I was with my boyfriend, who loves coffee and worked at a roastery in the past. He likes to ask questions about single origins when they change, and he asked the barista with curly light brown/red hair and mustache (who has served me in the past and hasn't been rude before), what the single origin was and when they would be offering it again (the shop just switched from East Timor.) Not only was the barista rude in his demeanor and response, but he also would not answer the question. He made a snarky comment about how it was for "The Owner to know and for us to find out." My boyfriend didn't say anything, and we just got our Americanos and left. It didn't sit right with me, that attitude, especially when we live in the area and frequent the establishment. I don't think I'll be coming back, and will resume ordering my coffee from Fogline, a small roastery in Arcata who actually loves what they do, and is happy to answer questions about the actual coffee whenever we have inquiries about new rotations of beans. read more

The coffee was wonderful but the girl at the register was demeaning and arrogant. We walked next door to the bakery and wow the friendliest and best customer service. If the service is bad I will not go back no matter how good the coffee is. read more

Best coffee i have had in long time. will always revisit when in town. service was quick and place had great vibe.

Great coffee, people, and service. You'll find me here every morning from here on out.

Love the tres leche latte. I'm glad I found this little place in Taos. I rather support a local place than a big chain coffee shop. read more

My friend got the tea and here are his thoughts about it. "The tea had perfect classic flavor. It wasn't bitter but also not super sweet. Really just the perfect inbetween." I got an iced latte with 1% milk. They have a lot of other choices for milk which is great but I panicked in the moment and got the most basic bland boring type of milk. (Don't make my mistake.) They are only serving to go service during the pandemic right now. The barista was super nice and also wore a mask. read more

Really wanted to support this place. Not the Taos vibe one would expect and is used to from other local establishments. The dude with the Tude and snotty chick were a perfect match and example of how NOT to treat customers. Just a pure icky vibe...and they were more interested in talking to each other. Yuk. Cold brew was bitter and burnt although the drip coffee was reportedly good by my other half. This place is overrated. Service sucks. Bummer. Won't be back. read more

The Coffee Apothecary - I say Cortado, you say Gibraltar, both are nice. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Taos, New Mexico

The shop is spotless and really attractive. There's indoor seating, which may or may not be available, because this place seems very popular. I tried sitting at the tall tables but the stools felt too short so that wasn't comfortable. The regular tables were perfect, though. There was a line which took a while, but that wasn't a problem for me. Someone in a rush might not feel that way. There were some baked goods--mini pies, empanadas, muffins and biscotti. I stuck with caffeine. I got a chocolate latte. It was fine...just okay. Others in the shop seemed to enjoy their drinks. The cashier/barista was polite, but I wouldn't say friendly. There's parking, which is a godsend in Taos. You can get 25 cents off your drink if you bring in a clean mug to use! read more

Coffee Apothecary and Roasters offers amazing coffee and a cozy place to hang or work. Really nice espresso roast with a nice crème and not-too-acidic flavor. Really one of the nicest coffee shops I have been to anywhere. They also have a few select treats from the Bread Club Nextdoor. See my other review on Bread Club. Pro tip. Go here at 7:50...then walk next door to Brad club for your breakfast!!! read more

This is an interesting bakery. One offering was an italian croissant (I forget the name) with a chocolate frangipane filling. They had other items to choose from that had interesting flavor combinations. No a big place, but a quality one! read more

Wow.. just wow. The tres leches latte will now forever be my standard for lattes. I don't know how I'm going to drink another latte ever again without comparing to the perfect flavor of this one! I feel a little ridiculous typing this out but it was SO GOOD. read more

Coffee was very good and the lady taking the orders was kind but slightly slow(no fault of her own, she was the only employee working). Kind of a bummer that it is carry-out only due to coronavirus because the inside looked very cool. Definitely give this spot a try when you're looking for a solid cup of coffee in Taos! read more

Unassuming local coffee shop on the outskirts of Taos' main drag. The building is hard to miss if you're not looking for the coffee flag waving. The sign is hard to read from the road. Inside the building is rustic: an unstained wooden counter, wooden tables and and chairs, wooden bar around the window for additional seating. There are little tchotchkes decorating the wooden ceiling beams and light fixtures and succulents along the windows. Coffee Apothecary has their own roaster on site and lots of different options for boutique coffee orders. They also have some cute swag for sale. We stopped in on our way out to go hiking - loved the coffee and had a very short wait. read more

Lemmie just start by telling you I'm a coffee snob because when you've had the best coffee - going back to burnt, shoddy drinks isn't worth it. Especially when going out to a cafe costs boucop bucks. I order coffee beans from New Orleans for example, and now it looks like I'm adding to the roster Coffee Apothecary. To the owners, can you please consider selling the syrups online? I've had a selection now: rose, anise, cinnamon, and most of all the lavender. None are too over the top in your face. Florals are difficult to do, without tasting soapy. They were all good, but lavender that's the prize right there if you can only go once. Get that in and ice latte, and thank me later. Also, I saw posts about rude staff. Check yourself, is it your attitude? I went a ton of times, very clearly a tourist (I travel in a motorhome). Never a problem, in fact it's always been polite. It's a small town, the vibe is on a slower pace and be honest with yourself, are you going places expecting them to be like home? So slow down ... and enjoy. read more

Such an amazing local gem. The person who helped us was so friendly and kind. We tried the peanut butter cookies that were baked by the owner's mother and agreed it was the best peanut butter cookie we had ever had. We ordered a less sweet mocha and a vanilla latte and they were delicious and perfect! Absolutely much try this place. read more

Another weird Taos place. Any positive reviews here must be from weird Taos people. The server or whatever you should call her, was self righteous and rude for no reason. How do rude people become service industry front liners? I won't return. Food and drink were fine. But service and layout, parking and attitudes will steer me away for good. Lame. read more

Amazing latte! Nina was such a pleasant barista and knew exactly how to make what I described! She told me a little about the home made flavored syrups... WOW! You can taste the difference, this isn't your typical cup of coffee folks. Well worth the 5-10 minute wait in line. I loved it so much, I returned the next day and Nina recognized me (with mask on!) and remembered exactly what I ordered. Thank you for an awesome latte! read more

The Coffee Apothecary - Here for the brew, not the hype. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Taos, New Mexico

BEST CAPPUCCINO IN ALL OF NEW MEXICO!!!! Seriously! I'm a super coffee nerd who's been coming to NM for decades. Cloudcroft, Truth or Consequences, Sante Fe, Taos, Angel Fire and the rest of the ski mountains. I love this place, but well roasted, carefully brewed coffee is not one of its strong suits. Until now! :))) THE COFFEE APOTHECARY hits the spot and is the perfect little local shop! They roast their own beans on what looks like a cute, gorgeous, little SF-10 San Franciscan Roaster (handmade in the US!) They care about the brewing process, and while I was there, greeted nearly every person by name, knew their milk preference, and welcomed new visitors with patience and sincerity. I don't wanna leave this little slice of heaven! THIS is now a MUST HAVE stop when I'm in northern NM!! If you want a great coffee, from wonderful, delightful, friendly people, you have to stop at The Coffee Apothecary! read more
