Cafe Chica

To be painfully honest, the first time I tried Cafe Chica at one of the markets I wasn't sold on it but a friend assured me that I really needed to give them another try and I'm so glad that I did. They really are more than just cute donuts for the gram, although the new space is very cute and picture perfect, they have some solid treats. I've tried a variety of their bomboloni, the pizza, and more. I love that they constantly roll out different flavors and there is always something different to try. Also the owner is a really friendly person, she adds a great personal touch to everything she does.I recently stopped in to try a sandwich which was stunning. Fresh focaccia with beautifully ripe tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and balsamic glaze. I really enjoyed it and it just tasted fresh.

Please forgive me, it's a terrible pic but however the bombo is bomb dot com. ESPECIALLY everything bagel + lox It brings me back to my favorite place, Best Bagel and Coffee in Manhattan but right here in Albuquerque The perfect amount of cream cheeseThe perfect amount of lox The perfect amount of loveeeee The dill The capersThe perfectionnnn Everything is just chef's kiss I tell you!

I may very well need to make this a full 5 stars next time i make it down, not only does it stay open later than 90% of the cafe's in this town, but it was seriously yummy. the sandwich didnt have the traditional Mufaletta round, but the focaccia was so fluffy and delightful, if its the wrong bread i dont want to be right anymore. my friend got the fig sandwich and she appeared be as enamored with it as i was with mine. Gotta try the pizza next time. but not only is the place bright and fun, but it has a fair number of plugs for people to laptop.. Seriously. i cant find any fault. other than it not being very nearby for me. but seriously unless this was a fluke i will surely be bumping up my rating. (i dont do 5 on the first visit).

Wow I didn't realize that I been to this business before but it was when they were in a much smaller structure! This unit now is so much bigger and spacious and very pink! I love the pink decorarions and pink color that this establishment has. The atomsophere very youthful and very cheerful. They have indoors cameras to keep you safe in the establishment. They brew coffee, their famous parties and of course pizza. It was a wonderful experience and the taste is almost present and they definitely know how to make customers happy!

I'd tried one of Cafe Chica's bomboloni at the farmers market, and I have visited their new physical location a couple of times during the soft open. It's a very welcoming space with a cute pink aesthetic and a variety of seating areas, including a little kids' nook, a sofa and coffee table, a counter with stools, and multiple tables. The bomboloni are delicious and very filling, and they have a nice selection of coffee, tea, and cocoa with flavored syrups you can add. The service is friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit!

I a had coffee, the crème brûlée donut which I believe is always on rotation & cream cheese with bacon donut. Both were delicious. I believe the flavors of the pastry's change weekly. Loved the pink decor and service was great. I'll be back :)

This was my first visit to this new restaurant. I parked on the street on Central; I think there's more parking around the corner and behind. Nice natural light flows in, and the décor is modern and fresh. Nice color, comfortable casual seating. My understanding is that in the mornings they serve a variety of pastries; I was there in the evening and had pizza. Staff is friendly and welcoming. The kitchen is partly visible and there's a very interesting large gas fired pizza oven. The pizza? Amazing. I will return another time to take photos, but here's what I liked. The crust had a very slight browning and crunch to the outer layer, the inner layer is soft and creamy. It was so good that I talked to the staff about it and was not surprised to learn that they used 00 flour and import it from Italy (Any American wheat farmers want a chance? ). This is a nice addition to the Albuquerque restaurant scene, I am eager to return for the morning fare.

The beignet type donuts were mouth watering. Spacious restaurant. Love the pink friendly vibe. The kid seating area was ultra cute. Pizza is probably one of the best I've had in Albuquerque! The one with the pesto was our fav.

Stopped by The Railyards on this snowy Saturday morning Picked up a Bomboloni. Oh so goodCrepe cake also for dessert tonight Not great for my waistline but a treat on the tongue I recommend

Good food Will go againLovely serviceFood was quick and seating was comfortable with a nice view
