Jezebel Soda Fountain

I've come here multiple years in a row now while visiting my Dad in New Mexico. The gelato is fantastic and the serving size is beyond generous. I always love the sweet side garden to relax in while you enjoy your treat. Someday I want my driveway to be filled with a mosaic of colorful tiles. The whole place is filled with wonderful artistic touches and there is a plethora of art to enjoy while you stroll around the large gallery.

This is really a gift shop that sold jewelry, indian blankets and trinkets. The art and photo store was connected. They push being the oldest soda shop. It's really a scam because it doesn't work. The helato orice cream had many flavors.We tried the ice cream. It was nothing special. 6 dollars for a small cup. Also had muffins and overpriced candy.

We came in and bought a few trinkets. A sterling silver chain and my son wanted two jibbitzs for his crocs. Service was fine and prices were fine. The quality of the sterling silver jewelry was nice and more expensive than the shop we saw in Cerrillos. But I think the quality is better. The chain is standard I just needed a new one as the one I have broke that held a pendant.

Great store/art gallery in Madrid. Very cute place, welcoming, big, it keeps going on and on. It's not pretentious or cheesy. You can find some nice souvenirs here, reasonable prices.Very nice customer service, clean restrooms in the back.I could have spend more time here since they have cute merchandise, so I'd recommend Jezebel if you are shopping for a nice gift or a cool souvenir for yourself. They have a great selection!

This was my first time back in Madrid in 23 years. Thank goodness some places don't change. Oh, businesses come and go, but the charm and vibe and size are exactly as I remembered! We drove in, parked, watched the PRIDE Parade, then stopped in this cute as a button place for lunch. We sat in the shade on the front deck, but there are two other places to dine, too. You can sit inside the store or venture out back. I like people watching, so we had a street side view. The brisket sandwich was excellent! Smokey brisket, melted cheese, lettuce, red onion, and the best homegrown tomato I have had this year! I wish I had gone back to the counter and ordered JUST a sliced tomato on the side! Man, that tomato actually TASTED like a tomato!The other star on my plate was the perfectly cooked french fries. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside! Yum!Evidently everyone else in town knows this as an ice cream place. Saw lots of giant sized waffle cones brimming with ice cream pass by me. I'll give the ice cream a try the next time I visit Madrid. And that will be soon, not another 23 years from now! Promise!

You want old fashion style fountain drinks? Come here! From handmade sodas of a variety of syrups, to a New York style egg cream, you can get it all here inside a very interesting gift and jewelry store. The entire town of Madrid is a fun destination along the turquoise trail. So, in addition to this fun store, there were many little shops in this former coal town.

Food was ok. Service is extremely slow. We waited 50 minutes for a hamburger and Frito chili bowl. Staff was polite an apologetic and offered free ice cream.

What a cute gallery, gift shop, soda fountain, snack place all rolled into one. On the turquoise trail in Madrid, 30 minutes from Santa Fe. We were starving so I had some frito pie: great job on the beef! And a chocolate hazelnut soda : interesting. My friend had perfect curly fries and a non-descript black bean burger. The server/waitress/person manning the store and the gallery all rolled into one was Amazing: efficient, friendly, knowledgeable and super fun to chat with.

You have the choice of two routes to take from Albuquerque to Santa Fe. The more popular one is the freeway that takes about an hour if you don't run into traffic, which I think may be a foreign concept in New Mexico, or you can take the road less taken. The so-called Turquoise Trail was recommended by the Budget car rental agent to whom Jamie W. and I listened intently as if he was as reliable as the Farmers Almanac. It takes nearly twice as long to get to Santa Fe...But hey, you get to stop in the tiny hamlet of Madrid where they filmed the John Travolta/Tim Allen cinematic classic, "Wild Hogs". Yeah, I never heard of it either. We decided to bypass the diner featured in the film in favor of the art gallery/cafe here because we were feeling pecking and tired. The cafe is set up in the back and offers a robust menu of diner fare, certainly more selection than you would expect from a place that sells wrought iron sculpture and quilted artwork.We heard so much about the Frito Pie that we mindlessly ordered one priced at $10.95. That's because it was served not in a Frito bag but as an entree with a thick protective shield of melted cheese (photo: http://bit.ly/2R7B4Xy). I'd be lying if I said we didn't enjoy it, but frankly two bites were enough for me. Out of pure guilt, we also ordered the $6.95 Garden Salad which was also generously topped with cheese but at least we could scrape it off (photo: http://bit.ly/2Ra4lRo). We kept wondering if John and Tim dined here. OK, I'm lying. I really didn't care.FOOD - 3 stars...maybe they need a Frito pie a la modeAMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...it's really an art gallery after allSERVICE - 3 stars...seemed a bit flustered TOTAL - 3 stars...you gotta eat sometime on the Turquoise TrailRELATED - Do you know the way to Santa Fe? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: http://bit.ly/2I4mWdq

Nothing was wrong with the ice cream or coffee which we ordered, but one thing I don't put up with is cafes or restaurants which think they're being smart by charging customers more than what is shown on their menus. Imagine paying for a medium coffee (shown as $5) and a small scoop of gelato (no prices, but was told it cost $6(!) but being charged $16³ (I think the total before tax was ~$15). How $11 = $15 is some strange math. I'm assuming that cashiers who do this are pocketing the extra money. The place itself is nice, but I never intend to give them any more of my money. I could complain about a six dollar small scoop of gelato, which is ridiculous, but I'm not. I don't like dishonest cafe mgmt. or employees cheating customers.
