So, we had seen this place on the map many times while driving to New Mexico, and I've always said…read more"oh we should go have pie in Pie Town." We finally did! First of all, this place is pretty much the town. I'm not sure of the history - - which came first the cafe or the town, but there's not much more to it than this place. My son looked up the population of the town and it's under 200. This place is absolutely adorable. There's a big front porch with tables, and there were people sitting at the tables when we arrived. Inside there is a lot of Americana decor and antiques. We just stopped for pie, and ordered an apple pie, a peach pie, and a custard pie. They were all absolutely amazing - - the crust is to die for! I wish we hadn't already eaten because they also have quiche and pot pie and lots of other things on the menu that sounded delicious. If you find yourself you're not very remote area, you have to stop and get a piece of pie, if not an entire lunch. You won't be sorry!

Pie Town Pie was totally worth the trip…read more It was a bit chilly and too windy to sit outside on November 22, 2025, but there was patio dining. Service was a bit slow when we walked in. That all quickly changed soon after we played musical chairs to find a clean table we wanted. Lol. The only other weird thing was, they did not have menus. It was all verbally listed for us. In approximately 15 minutes, our food came out hot and fresh. I had the quiche, which was perfect, but I tried both of my daughters' dishes too. Talk about wholesome, comforting flavor town! Not only that, but they add extra touches to each dish to make them aesthetically pleasing. Our lunch consisted of: Pizza SLAB = $9.95 Pot Pie = $14.95 Quiche Meal = $9.95 Slice of Brookie pie = $7.50 Beverage × 2 = $5.00 ($2.50 ea.) Highly recommend if you get the chance to travel this desolate area of New Mexico. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4| Price: 4

I get desperate sometimes for food from home. They were amazing. Just stopped off for some more while in NM. Still excellent. What makes them perfect is she uses enough anise, many people don't. Texture and taste are perfect. Wish I had her recipe since she does a better cookie than any of my relatives. Owner is also really flexible, went out of her way to meet me after hours and sell me what few cookies she had left. We ate them slowly, with happy noises.

Pre-order cake or stop by for a cupcake. My daughter and I found this place quite by accident…read more Well, she had heard there was a cake shop in Socorro, but was not sure where it was located. I had to mail some things from the Post Office and there it was! They just opened for the day. She had a display of the days offerings. Not as big as the ones in Albuquerque, but very tasty and great looking. The day's offering were: Blue Berry Cheesecake, Fruity Pebbles, and a Chocolate Covered Marshmallow, this one looked heavenly. Cupcakes were $2.50 each or 6 for $12. I forgot to note the dozen price. We got 6 to go. There is a place to sit and enjoy your treat. My daughter said that would be perfect for her and her friends to come, sit and enjoy. This place is a little hidden, at least to me. If I had not parked where I did for the Post Office we would not have spotted it. While there we checked out her custom order cakes. Very creative! My daughter likes to have a place to get just one cupcake, you know for after those finals!

We rolled into Ancient Way Cafe 10 minutes before closing. We had a Cabin reserved and offered to…read moreorder to go so they could close. They wouldn't hear of it. The amazing gentleman behind the register walked us through the menu, told us to take our time and they would love having us join them. The chef came out and talked to my sweetie about Gluten Free food and what he could make for her. Never have I expected amazing stand out food in out of the way small cafes. Usually I am just happy to fill my belly. This cafe not only had the best service I have ever experienced but the food was stellar! I would go out of my way to eat here again. Everyone there was so happy to to wait on us, feed us and talk with us to understand why we were visiting. They served 3 more groups of late arrivAl's `after we showed up and with each one, they welcomed them with open arms and made sure they too had a great meal and great service. If you are within an hour of this cafe, I highly recommend you make it to their door! Every other restaurant could learn from this wonderful group of people. Service with a smile, incredible food, personal service from wait staff and the chef! The home made pizza was the best I have ever experienced. Incredible crust and unique and delicious toppings!!!!

I cannot recommend this place, except for their speedy refund, after we were unable to confirm our…read morereservation with ANYONE that answered ANY of our phone calls at the site. We had made reservations for 2 nights at El Morro, confirmed by an e-mail, and stating that we would receive an e-mail AND a text with the the code to our cabin several days before our arrival. We received NOTHING!! Attempts to reach anyone that could confirm that we had a place to stay by phone on the day of our arrival were fruitless. It took over an hour to finally receive a call from the owner. By That time we had made other plans, as the drive to El Morro without a confirmation that we had a place to stay was just too big of a risk. El Morro's failure to follow through on our reservation as they said that they would, along with the total inability to contact someone at the site that had a clue as to what was going on caused us to miss spending time with friends that we had not seen in over 30 years. There is nothing that can be done to replace that.....

Excellent food even though it's in the middle of nowhere. I got the half order of biscuits with…read moresausage gravy and 1 over medium egg. It was still a full meal so I'm glad I went with the smaller portion. It was fluffy and savory, the egg cooked perfectly. It was only $7.96. That's a bargain. The woman working was also very friendly and attentive. The store also had a lot of local goods for sale, from honey to desserts.

They had Biscochitos & Chocolate Chip Oatmeal cookies, as well as a slew of chili-based sauces for sale. I bought a pack of oatmeal cookies (I got Biscochitos from a different vendor), and they were crispy and delicious. The only drawback was that they were cash only and didn't accept any forms of electronic payment, which is a mistake, in my opinion, but what do I know? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I wish I could've bought some of their sauces to take home, but we're not checking any bags, so #NextTimeGadget.
