Arcosanti Cafe — Restaurant in Four Corners States

We started off late and got to the Cafe around 1 p.m. I was excited for the structural design and coffee.

We thought we could explore a majority of it on our own even after reading the website, but it does require you to attend the tour which is fine but opted to go for the cafe instead. The Cafe is hard to put into words how unique the design and structure is, I think the photos do more justice than my own words could. It was beautiful and has some nice views from which you can enjoy while drinking and snacking.

I got a Lavender Black Ice Coffee and my Wife got a Lavender Black Icd Coffee with Milk and Honey. They were really good, not the best we ever had but still really good. I think next time we’ll have to go for breakfast to enjoy in the snacks and see how that goes.

It seems like it could be something great but over the years still waiting for that to happen....

For the cafe: I think it’s important for people to remember that this is a remote, micro-city in the middle of the desert. According to our tour guide, there are only 20 people living on site right now, so these two facts should decrease your expectations of a traditional cafe experience. Knowing this, we didn’t eat at the cafe, but had two of their house made drink coolers. Drinks were fantastic and fun, and I recommend getting those! Overall, beautiful place! The architecture is stunning and my partner and I felt like we learned a lot during the tour. The dirt road is a little rocky, but if you drive slow,...
