Catalyst Coffee
6010 Coors Blvd NW #2, Albuquerque, NM
Crema's Take
“This Albuquerque gem combines serious espresso craftsmanship with a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that feels both artful and unpretentious, where the owner's passion for coffee shines through in thoughtfully executed specialty drinks and seasonal creations. The bright, naturally lit space decorated with local art makes it equally perfect for a solo work session or catching up with friends, and their pastry selection pairs beautifully with their inventive flavor combinations. What sets Catalyst apart is the palpable care that goes into every drink—staff and owner alike seem to actually understand coffee and take pride in making something delicious, not just fast.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
