Santa Cecelia is my favorite coffee shop in Burque! The drinks and treats are interesting and delicious. The ambiance is NM queer adorable with a perfect secret patio in the back. Please come on out and support these amazing folx making beautiful community space!
Adorable tucked away cafe with welcoming staff and chill vibes. Cozy indoor seating along with quiet, patio outdoor seating. Serving well made coffees, teas and baked goods along with fun and local products.
Let me tell you about the best sweet potato pie I have ever had. Base: crunchy, chewie, sweet and salty. Sweet potatoe: rich, silky, creamy. Topped off with perfect cream (not too sweet) and maple syrup. Not only was the pie a dream, so are the handcrafted drinks and crispy, fresh breakfast burrito. Do yourself a favor and visit this place.
Coffee was delicious (I got one of the seasonal specials) and the vibes were ✨ 🌈 😘 Loved all of the decor and little surprises everywhere I looked. I can’t wait to go back.
Flat out the BEST coffee in Old Town. The owner has a real passion for making coffee and baking, and you can taste it. Be sure not to miss this hidden gem. Other highlights include the carnitas breakfast burrito and basically any of the freshly baked goods that change from day to day.
