Pilar Yacht Club & Café
NM-570, Taos, NM
Crema's Take
“Tucked into a charming hole-in-the-wall in Pilar, this café is the kind of place where Chef Julio's kitchen somehow cranks out perfectly executed chile rellenos and overstuffed burritos with the same warmth that greets river rafters, anglers, and weary travelers. The real magic happens on the front patio where a cup of traditional coffee pairs with fall sunlight and genuine conversation, making it an irresistible oasis between Taos and Santa Fe that keeps people coming back after they've "finally stopped by."”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu.
