Barelas Coffee House

First time trying the place. It' was good. It was also busy and I get it. The food was delicious we had to send our huevos Rancheros back, apparently if you want it with tortillas you have to get the deluxe. The red chili was good not too hot or spicy. It was nice to see that they had chicharones on the menu. Some of the pork was dry but for the most part delicious. They also have homemade tortillas which is also very nice. I do recommend them if you want a good home cooked meal.

Barelas Coffee House isn’t just a breakfast spot—it’s a living artifact of New Mexico. You feel it the moment you walk in, past the rack of small candies and trinkets by the register, through the crooked, maze-like rooms of what was once clearly someone’s home. Nothing here is trying to impress you, and that’s exactly the point. The huevos rancheros arrive the way they always should: unapologetic and deeply rooted in tradition. The red chile is fragrant, soulful, and alive—bold without being showy. The beans taste like the land itself, as if they’d been simmering since sunrise, and the hash browns crackle with a comforting, grease-kissed crunch that only decades of muscle memory in the kitchen can produce. The room hums with easy conversation—friends catching up, neighbors lingering, and the occasional local politician from either side of the aisle sharing space without ceremony. This is a place where ideology takes a back seat to hunger, gratitude, and good food done right. The burrito ordered across the table was a thing of beauty—simple, hefty, and honest. Wash it all down with strong, no-nonsense diner coffee and you understand why this place endures. You won’t find food influencers staging photos here, and thank God for that. Barelas doesn’t need filters or reinvention. This is New Mexico, true and unvarnished—and it’s exactly how breakfast should be.

Barela’s is such a delightful find!! I will come here any morning I’m in the area. I was seated in the lovely sunroom and had good, quick service courtesy of Julia! It’s a little loud/echoey in there but just makes it feel like you’re at a big family gathering. Homey. The food was excellent - carne adovada with eggs was the flavor-explosion, melt on your mouth kind of New Mexican food one dreams of. Eggs perfectly cooked, green and red chile packed full of flavor but not too spicy to overpower the rest of the dish, and a soft fluffy fresh homemade tortilla to balance the meal. Hash browns perfectly crispy. Diner coffee to boot. I love this place, so glad to have found it. Will be back!

If you are from here and never been, you need to go:) If you are just visiting this Local Coffee Shop is a must visit place to eat. Service was absolutely spectacular, food was fresh and delicious. The Huevos Rancheros Deluxe, Chicharon Burrito and Carne Adovada Enchiladas were Phenomenal. The tortillas Chips and Salsa were tasty as usual Red Green or both is a must even if you ask for it on the side. Our waitress was friendly, gave exceptional customer service, went above and beyond for our group. Every time I have come the service is outstanding. The food is always cooked to perfection and has a wonderful relaxing atmosphere. The prices are great and always worth waiting for a table if you go during a busy time. :D

Comfort food for kings on a budget. The beef enchiladas were so delicious and their flour tortillas so fluffy and tasty The red chilli is quite spicy but very delicious, if that’s not your thing the green one is also so very tasty. No fuss quality straightforward service, everyone was lovely but don’t expect fancy. We loved it all

One of the best place to get New Mexican food! Very friendly service and reasonably priced. Only negative thing to point out are the location and scarcity of parking spots around.
