Espresso Fino
222 Gold Ave SW, Albuquerque, NM
Crema's Take
“Run by a deeply passionate owner who genuinely welcomes every guest, Espresso Fino is a tiny, cozy sanctuary where exceptional espresso drinks—think perfectly balanced cortados with silky microfoam—meet warm hospitality and thoughtful touches like non-dairy options and green chile burritos. This isn't just a coffee stop; it's a place where the owner takes time to actually connect with visitors and locals alike, creating an experience that lingers long after your cup is empty.”

This is a great coffee shop - operated by the owner and he’s really friendly and personable. The espresso was great, my Cortado had the right ratio of milk with very good foam, thickening the drink slightly but not a foam layer on top. No burned or sour taste. I got a couple of them. Had a breakfast burrito which are not made in house but it was good. I might not call it a breakfast place but they have food, it’s a coffee shop first. I will definitely be back again when in Albuquerque, one of the best coffee shows I’ve been to in a while. Not a lot of sitting room inside, mostly people grabbing a coffee and going, but there are some tables and a window bar.
5 stars all around. Such a cozy (tiny) place, with an Awesome green Chile burrito, and really, really, really good coffee - and thanks for the non-dairy options, Espresso Fino! Thank you for your hospitality and kindness this morning. ☕️🙏 [And, good news - Made it to the mechanic! Lol!]
The best coffee shop experience I’ve ever had. My family and I found this near our hotel as we are only visiting for a few days. We got to meet the owner who took time to actually speak to us- and we got to say hi to his adorable daughter 😊 While making our drinks he let my dad taste it to see if he liked it or if he should modify anything. An amazing owner and I can tell he loves what he does. The drinks also turned out AMAZING and the price was very reasonable. 10/10 recommend if you’re in the area!
This coffee shop was near to where we were staying and we were feeling tired looking for some refreshments. We got iced coffee and iced americano. They also served burritos from three sisters - we got the green and red salsa. The staff were incredibly patient and kind - they offered us to taste the amount of cream in our drinks and accordingly adjusted it to our liking. I have never been offered such fine service at any coffee shop. We were incredibly satisfied with our burritos and drinks. I would highly recommend this spot.
Simply put, the best espresso you’ll find out there. You 10/10 quality, service, experience. You’re lucky if you get to meet this incredible owner and his coffee shop!
