Oppies
109 E Palace Ave, Santa Fe, NM
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside a charming cashmere and chocolate boutique near the Shed, Oppies is an easy-to-miss window counter that punches well above its size with genuinely excellent espresso drinks crafted by baristas like Alex and Atticus who clearly care about their craft. Their creative signature drinks like the Ruby Matcha Latte and Pink Fog Latte showcase real innovation beyond standard coffee shop fare, and regulars rave about the consistency and quality that rivals much larger establishments around Santa Fe. It's the kind of hidden gem that feels like stumbling onto a European side street—small, intentional, and absolutely worth seeking out if you're serious about specialty coffee.”

Oppie Coffee has been a great find. Everything the barista Alex makes is genuinely excellent and far better than many other places around town. The drinks are consistently great and the hot chocolate is hands down one of the best I’ve had. Prices are very reasonable especially for downtown Santa Fe. Even though it’s a small spot it’s absolutely worth the wait. I honestly think about grabbing their hot chocolate almost every morning. It’s the perfect way to start the day. Highly recommend.
Oppies isn’t really a “coffee shop” per se it is a coffee kiosk or window located in the cashmere and chocolate store downtown near the Shed. If you blink you might miss it. There’s one table to sit at on the outdoor patio of the courtyard (which is not comfortable to sit long) it seems meant for grab and go or maybe to enjoy a chocolate with from the shop. The espresso is a strong dark roast, and flavorful and the barista is friendly. It was $10+ for espresso, pelligrino and a tip (downtown prices). If you are looking for a place to chill this might not be the best option but to walk around town it works. It’s quick and convenient.
In love with the Ruby Matcha Latte! A very unique place in Santa Fe.
Atticus was so sweet and fun to talk to! I got a small pink fog latte and it was absolutely delicious! I paid about $7.46 with tip
Ever wandered down a European side street and stumbled upon a hidden gem? That’s exactly what Oppies feels like. Nestled beside a charming boutique that sells both chocolate and cashmere, this lovely café offers a delightful selection of cold and cozy beverages. My four-legged bestie and I found a perfect spot beneath the shade of a tree, surrounded by blooming flowers. I savored a velvety cappuccino paired with a rich French dark bonbon. The barista? Absolutely exceptional — she deserves five stars all on her own. I’m already looking forward to coming back in the fall to try their hot chocolate — I have a feeling it’ll be the coziest kind of perfection.
