The Best Santa Fe Coffee Shops

While major international cities like Copenhagen, Seattle, and New York have a well-documented coffee culture, you’ll find a robust and inviting coffee culture right here in Santa Fe. Local Santa Fe Coffee Shops have long been integral to the city’s vibrant and artistic undercurrent. As the temperatures outside drop into their winter lows, these Santa Fe coffee shops become an inviting space to enjoy. 

Take a break from shopping and museum hopping and head into one of these local Santa Fe coffee shops, where you’re likely to find plenty of locals mingling with tourists and enjoying the unique coffee culture of Santa Fe. Whether you’re looking for a bold espresso or a unique local blend, we recommend trying out multiple Santa Fe coffee shops while you’re here. We’ve listed a few of our favorite spots below. 

  1. One of our favorite local Santa Fe coffee shops is Iconik Coffee Roasters. This regional chain is a local favorite and features an assortment of well-crafted coffees, great food, and a welcome break from the winter elements. 
  2. If you want something hip and trendy, consider heading to Betterday. It’s arguably one of the best Santa Fe coffee shops, where you’ll find plenty of local vibes and delicious coffee. 
  3. For a laid-back atmosphere with strong (and delicious) coffee, head to Java Joe’s
  4. Ohori’s coffee has been a staple among Santa Fe coffee shops since the mid-1980s. The focus here is on small-batch, high-quality roasts, and it shows. 
  5. If you’re looking for a quiet, cozy spot to do a little reading or light work, head to Downtown Subscription. The coffee is reliably good, too!
  6. Speaking of grabbing a great cup of coffee and pairing it with a good book, don’t miss another of our favorite Santa Fe coffee shops: Collected Works Bookstore & Coffeehouse. This is the perfect place to spend a winter afternoon sipping coffee while browsing the shelves.
  7. As you browse the galleries on Canyon Road, don’t miss the chance to stop at The Teahouse. Though better known for its unique selection of teas, the coffee here is excellent, too, and provides a nice break from all of your busy gallery explorations.
