Marketplace Coffee + Tea — Restaurant in Albuquerque

Pretty Darn Top-Notch! An Unexpected Surprise… Great coffee, friendly staff and super comfortable space. Order yourself some pridefully crafted coffee or tea drinks and relax, or remote work, in a casual well decorated atmosphere. Feels odd when you’re rolling up and the property is primarily a home decor retailer, but once you’re inside and nestled in the coffee shop portion, you’re certain to be glad you didn’t let the ‘cover of the book’ dismay you. They also have yummy burritos, pastries and other items to satisfy your appetite. Almost did four stars, because it felt odd giving a home decor store such high praise, but gosh darned the coffee is so good and the people so nice…...

This place was a true gem to find. The atmosphere inside is impeccable and there's so many things to look at. Kelsey at the coffee counter was incredibly kind and helpful. She talked with me about different coffee making things and went above and beyond and wrapped a gift we bought for someone while we were there. She was so sweet and is absolutely the pure reason i'm writing this review. Y'all have a stellar employee and deserve to know it! We found the place on foot headed from the car dealership (getting an oil change) to the chick-fil-a. we saw signs as we passed the street and decided to give it a try. The signs works...

It's really more of a furniture store than a cafe. Awfully hard to find a place to sit without worrying whether you can sit or not (most of the furniture is priced and for sell). Bunch of plastic chairs upstairs though that you can sit on with peace of mind (I think, I just sat on the floor). Maybe the only places.

The latte I got was ok but the barista seemed to really hate making my latte lol 🫠 Quick service but also I was the only customer, it seems. Slow cafe.

My rating is based off of how it is as a cafe since I wasn't here for furniture. I'll change it if they take the coffee and tea part out of...
