Crema's Take
“Ancora's breakfast burritos are genuinely outstanding—the kind of thing that justifies a weekend trip on their own—and the mission-driven nonprofit model means your money actually goes toward supporting recovery programs in the community. Beyond the food, this is where Albuquerque goes for live music and karaoke in an all-ages space with a real chef running the kitchen and barista-quality coffee that doesn't feel like an afterthought. The staff is warm and accommodating, and the pastries and chocolate truffles live up to the hype just as much as those famous burritos.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

No exaggeration, literally some of the best food I've had in years. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Didn't know prior to arriving, but they're a non-profit supporting a great cause. Absolutely recommend stopping by this place if you're in the area

Local cafe for a great cause with a real chef and lots of open mic / karaoke action. The coffee, pastries and desserts are extraordinary. They also have some yummy meals. The staff in training are super motivated and nice people.
