Cute road side diner/cafe with friendly people. It was cozy inside with loads of art and Knicknacks for sale I had the club sandwich and fries. The sandwich was huge (!) (I probably won’t eat dinner now) and very tasty. The fries were fresh cut and fries to just the right crispness.

Unexpected joy... when you drive in the middle of nowhere, you find a cozy place with good food made from scratch, and friendly staff, that is a win win. Our fries were made from fresh potatoes, no precut or pre frozen. Food was simple and delicious. Don't go there in a rush, food made from the heart takes time. The sign says it all, It's all good!!!

This is the kind of place you wish you'd find in every small town that you pass through on your way to your major destination. Mountainaire is on the way to higher elevation towns and is only an hour from Albuquerque. Alpine Alley is a local gathering place with a comfy couch and tables, a fully-equipped coffee house, a breakfast and lunch restaurant, and a take out cafe with homemade bakery items that will satisfy your innermost cravings. They sell out quickly though - when I arrived around 10am, there was only one blueberry muffin left. I had it heated with butter and it was heavenly. The espresso was perfect as well. The owner is friendly and funny and seemed to know every patron that came through the door. Of course. I was driving a back route to Las Vegas, New Mexico, that took me through this mountain town and several others. My journey was saved by my 20 minute stop here. I hope yours is, too.

Alpine Alley is a gem of a small grocery store with a little of everything! There are a lot of healthy food choices in addition to regular food items. It also houses a cute little restaurant that serves everything. We had a Reuben and a chicken and avocado grilled sandwich, and it was delicious. We purchased banana bread which certainly hit the spot. It certainly would be worth stopping there.
