    Infrequently I buy coffee just to remind myself why I make my own at home. I ordered a Large sugar-free vanilla soy latte, my go-to for decades when hanging out in airports waiting for flights. No sugar-free vanilla, but about a dozen other flavors. No big. I picked sugar-free caramel substitute. Sticker Shock +$7!!! Plus $1 tip!!! Yikes! But hey, I was going to enjoy a rare treat. Drink arrived in a half-full medium cup! But hey, rare treat, right? Foam disappeared within seconds. But, hey, rare.... Soon returned for a refill of just light roast, but they only had dark roast, but hey.... I finally drew the line when a refill was $3.00!! Seriously? No #%&$ way! Keep your dark roast!! I don't care if the ambiance includes music, friendly service, and comfortable chairs, I have all that at home!

    I'm so glad we stopped in, the Crem Brule coffee I had was so good! I told the girl working that I had never been in and she said the new CB was really good. So naturally I went with that, glad I did because I really enjoyed it! The only thing was the building smelt very strange, like bad food or something. If I wanted to sit and drink my drink I don't think I could have if I wanted to.

    Small cozy coffee shop! Great and nice staff! Tasty coffee Took it to go but for the short time I was there the staff was very nice and friendly. They have a lunch menu that looked tasty also.

    Good local coffee shop to get your coffee fix! The service is quick and friendly, and there is plenty of parking in the lot.

    *** great little coffee shop in Ruidoso, New Mexico *** ENVIRONMENT This small coffee shop is located in a plaza on the left-hand side when you're headed towards Ski Apache on Mechem Drive (aka Hwy 48). During COVID restrictions (5/16/21), there were a few indoor spots to chill and use their WIFI. SERVICE The best in Ruidoso! I really appreciate their recommendations - I asked for them. MY FAVORITE PART... All of the drinks. I tried all of them except my brother's sweet tea. He had no complaints so everything was good! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... It's so far away from L.A. (where I currently live). Also - They close early in the day. I think on Sundays they close early - at like 2PM. THE DRINKS When I walked in, I told the nice lady behind the counter that I wanted latte, but I needed something on the sweet side that was different. Not a mocha or vanilla. She suggested the "nutty professor" I think it was called. I hadn't had any coffee per usual that morning and the 20oz. was perfect to curb any possible caffeine-less headache. I also told her I had three young kids in the back seat who just went hiking with us. They deserved a special treat for doing so good. She suggest Italian sodas. I chose a 16 oz. watermelon for the flavor since I knew they all liked that. They loved all the whipped cream at the top. It shut them up on the short drive back to our cabin. Lol. It was some good soda! All five drinks cost me just under $23 which I didn't think was bad considering the service was really friendly and fast. TIP They have some pastries on display plus a few breakfast and lunch items like sandwiches and burritos available too. Add green chile or pesto for $.75. PARKING Ample, free parking in a shared plaza lot. OVERALL I would choose this place over the Starbucks located on the other side of the road going the opposite direction any day. Love Zocca! | Drinks: 5 | Service: 5 | Environment: 4 | Price: 4 |

    Pastries and Bagels. They have cute signs everywhere!

    Such a cute little coffee shop in Ruidoso! I got an iced soy latte with agave syrup and it was amazing! The espresso is smooth and the people are super friendly. This town is used to tourists, so they answered my questions very nicely and they were very courteous. I also ordered a sausage breakfast burrito and it hit the spot. It's served to-go, but that's for your convenience and you can take it to a table in the cafe. It was very tasty and had the perfect amount of green chile, and it had some good salsa on the side. Lastly, we split a cinnamon muffin and the strudel and they were both super tasty. I recommend getting them warmed because it'll make them that much more tasty! I'll definitely be back tomorrow for my last day in Ruidoso!

    Seriously the best coffee I've ever tasted and the cutest coffee shop to enjoy it in. I came here 3 times every single morning on my trip to Ruidoso because the coffee is that good. My iced Caramel Zocciato was phenomenal. The flavor stayed consistent every single time. The balance of espresso, milk, and caramel was just right and not too overpowering. The employees were super kind and friendly and the atmosphere of the shop was very peaceful. I highly recommend the coffee from Zocca's.

    Not too memorable. Got breakfast in a cup. Salsa was really good though. Seemed like I was an inconvenience with my questions.

    Cozy and cool and cozy vibe. The coffee and pastries were good! Perfect to read a book, study, or watch the snow come down. Highly recommend.

    We just had lunch here for the first time and it was amazing!…read more The Greek salad with fresh feta and pickled veggies was elevated with the cornichons and caper berries. 10/10! We chose The Connoisseur pizza ( Italian sausage, red onions, garlic, topped with house-made ricotta). It was divine! 10/10 For what appeared to be a hole in the wall pizza place, they have really elevated food. I highly recommend this place. It did not disappoint! The service was impeccable. We will return our next trip to Ruidoso.

    My family of 7 who are pizza lovers stopped in while strolling Midtown. I browsed some restaurants…read moreonline prior to our venture to Ruidoso and this was on our list of places to try thanks to the many raving reviews. The place was packed when we arrived, but gratefully time was on our side and we were able to be seated promptly without a wait. They have a walk up counter outside where you can place to-go orders. Just come back in 15 minutes after ordering (they won't call ya). Looks simple, divey and well loved and the crowds are the proof! We ordered jumbo pizzas and a couple of cheese slices for my 10-year old. The slices are huge, definitely only need 1 for a kiddo. We didn't know lol. Slices are giving New York, so fold in half and bite. If you have toddlers that typically eat 1 slice, I would even say order 1 slice to cut in half. Mom of 5 here ‍...you're welcome lol. Lemonade was fresh squeezed, sweetened, but naturally on the tart side. My kids weren't a fan, but I thought it was excellent! They don't know what's up. But if you have kids, maybe yours won't like it either lol. I enjoy Gingerale but usually don't get it because most brands contain high fructose corn syrup amongst other junk. I was unaware of the Boylan brand until today! Enjoyed it very much with our meal. Was light and refreshing. We'll look for it elsewhere now. I like gourmet pizza and my husband doesn't. This was a good middle. "Not too gourmet" he says. I say it's a step above the major chains. Thin crust and lighter without all the bloat to follow, but still a little greasy lol. Take that as you may! Highly recommend this stop for pizza lovers. We'd come back! Staff was attentive though the place was and seems constantly busy. When I hear cafe I don't think pizza, but now I just might lol. No complaints!

It's a beautiful place with a nice dining room and bar area. The menu has just enough to choose from that anyone should be able to pick something they would like. Nothing is too fussy and the prices are decent for a steakhouse in a small mountain town that depends a lot on tourism. I have been there for lunch, for dinner, by myself and with friends - probably over a dozen times over several years. Not once have I walked away feeling like I had a great experience. The service is usually decent but the servers always seem way more interested in chatting with each other or hanging out with other employees. On more than one occasion I've heard them complain about other customers or getting another table as more customers come in the door. The food is generally okay but nothing special. It's not a complicated menu but you can order the same thing more than once and who knows how it will show up to the table. Over or under cooked, way over seasoned or missing ingredients listed on the menu - this has happened to me several times. Walking into the restaurant you are rarely greeted by someone right away. It takes a while for anyone to notice you and then if someone does it's usually a busy server or someone who doesn't look like they work there. Today I was greeted by someone who was dressed like they were cleaning out their garage. Several times I've been seated at the only clean table in the room. By the time I've left, the tables have all been dirty and no one has touched them during my entire meal. A table was only cleaned if it was needed for someone else coming in. It's a really bad impression. Something needs to be done to isolate the kitchen from the front of the house. You can hear the kitchen staff yelling, cursing and playing loud heavy metal music throughout the dining room and bar. During meals I have learned a lot about the personal lives of the staff and not because I wanted to. All of these things are fixable. I keep going back because I'll hear that there is a new manager or a new chef but it seems like nothing ever really changes and it's a shame.

The German chocolate cupcake was good, still a tiny bit dry, but the flavors were great! I do look forward to our next visit and to see what other flavors are available! The owner was handing out cookie samples, salted caramel I believe, pretty tasty, the caramel was a little to large for the size of the cookie, but the taste was great! The people working here are super friendly and sweet :) Always welcome you w a smile and genuinely want you to enjoy their treats and shop. The shop is cute and has a little area to sit out front to enjoy your treat and there are lots of cute things to browse while in line; little candies, honey sticks, baking cookware, candles and more. Definitely stop by when you're visiting Ruidoso!!
