We had stayed overnight a couple years back on a roadtrip to Santa Fe. We arrived at lunchtime and were intrigued by this place. We liked the history of the place and the homey comfort. If you dine in be sure to read the information on the wall photos. We got a couple of Paninis: Turkey Apple Cheddar and Applewood Bacon & Ham. We pared the sandwiches with Sweet Potato Fries & Onion Rings, but more importantly Hanks Soda & fresh baked cookies! What a deal they have for lunch and great taste!

I think I'm on a mission to…read more. SAVE RATON!! So, I've been going to and from CA to CO for the past two+ years and the Amtrak has definitely been a secret pleasure of mine. The rates are pretty darn reasonable and the experience is quite nice. One stop I thought was simply magical was Raton. It let me know that we're almost to CO or well on my way back west. Whether I'm jumping off to hitch a ride on the Grey Hound connector to hit the major cities, or hanging tight on the train a little longer to visit my cousin who lives near the La Junta station... Raton is a quiet town with some of the sweetest folk one can encounter. Enter "The Pack Rat" One of a few places open this past Labor Day was this great place. Browse for staple souvenirs and even amazing locally made goodies like rosaries, jewelry, crafty items, and even yummy eats. Our 2 hour delay got us patronizing and socializing at the Pack Rat. The owners were cordial and very helpful. They were very inviting and informative. Not too pushy and gave us just enough space to freely move about the establishment without feeling watched or pressured. They had a fairly large selection of dream catchers. Small to big! We snatched a howling wolf that was pretty huge for $25. A definite deal considering I got one in AZ or UT from a "native" that was the size of a half dollar for 15 bucks. They adorn the walls, so please check them out if your into them. I walked out with some snacks for the road, a habanero salsa, that catcher, and a few other trinkets. The Pack Rat is a tourist must because what's better than good people, local items, reasonable prices, and tons of souvenirs to sift through?? I was fully satisfied with the purchase I made and would love to come back again. AMTRAK, would you please consider re-opening the Raton station? Spread the word!!! I'm on a mission to save it all :)

This is a bud shop that is part of the community and looking out for their neighbors, they're not just out to make a buck. They are the nice guys of the pot shops in Trinidad. Wish I had caught everyone's names, but I believe it was the owner I spoke with and two female budtenders. All were really friendly and easy to talk to. They carry a lot of edibles and they also have t-shirts. It kinda reminds me of a traditional old Colorado gift shop. With weed.

Paid $70 for an ounce of nice buds. Staff was super cool and the shop had a good vibe.read more
