Food scene

This quaint cafe is located in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Albuquerque. Around here you will find old farms, charming homes with lots of land, and a beautiful nature center that is perfect for walking:-). The cafe itself sells delicious desserts (I love the pies here) and the coffee is pretty good:-). And if you like bookstores, there’s an awesome bookstore right next to the cafe. I highly recommend this place to families and solo travelers alike:-).

This is my all time favorite Thai restaurant in the U.S. I have traveled all over the United States and every time I travel somewhere new, I go to Thai restaurants. But the restaurants in NYC have nothing on this little gem in Abq!:-). Seriously. Visit and you won’t be disappointed!!!:-)

Albuquerque has a thriving brewery scene and this is one of the best breweries I’ve been to in town. If you like good beer and a cool, laid down atmosphere, go to Bow and Arrow. It won’t disappoint.

You wanna go to the place Obama visited when he came to Albuquerque in 2008? This is it! Try the huevos rancheros. This is a place that old time New Mexicans love and there’s a reason why it’s still a local favorite.

This place looks like a pharmacy, but only real New Mexicans know that there’s a magical little restaurant inside this place. Try the enchiladas and don’t miss the hand made flour tortillas! They are delicious.

Sightseeing

This is a great place to go for a morning or evening run! It’s also a great place for bikers and for families who want to take their kids on a walk by the river.

I like Old Town because it’s historic and because you can always find artisans selling their beautiful, Native made jewelry around the plaza.
