Which Santa Fe coffee roasters are worth visiting?

Iconik Coffee Roasters and Ohori's Coffee Roasters are the city's roasting cornerstones, both roasting locally with multiple or long-established locations. 35° North Coffee and Odd Box Coffee Roasters are also well regarded for their carefully sourced beans.

Where is the best coffee near the Santa Fe Plaza and Railyard?

The Railyard District is the most walkable coffee area, with cafes among the galleries and the Saturday farmers market. The Downtown Plaza is a short walk away, putting good coffee within reach of the city's historic adobe landmarks and museums.

Does Santa Fe's high altitude affect the coffee?

Santa Fe sits at about 7,000 feet, and while local roasters adjust their craft for the elevation, what visitors notice most is the pace: cafes here are built for slow, sunny mornings. The dry high-desert air also makes a warm cup on a shaded patio especially pleasant.
