“ We arrived around 1:00 on Sunday thinking they might be busy.we we're prepared for a little wait.Our food came out so fast and everything was delicious!!!... The atmosphere was a little loud, but it just added to the fun time sóent there!!! We will definitely be back! ”
“ Went on a girls trip to Santa Fe and this breakfast was by far my favorite! Got the cowboy bowl and chile was so delicious, the homemade tortilla was so fresh, and the portions were great! Also shared a cinnamon bun with the table and it was A1, and also HUGE! ”
“ Two of us went to Counter Culture today. It was my second visit and it's a place I'd recommend. As I did last time, I ordered the Half Sandwich, Soup, AND Salad for $14. I thought that was a good price. I chose the tuna salad on whole wheat which came with lettuce, tomato, red onion, sprouts, walnut, celery, and Dijon mustard. Very tasty and quite large. I really enjoyed the fresh-tasting sprouts as well as the crunch from the celery and walnuts. I'm picky about tuna salad and this hit the spot. For my soup I ordered the vegan split pea. Hearty and something you don't see that often. The side salad with was made of lettuce, sprouts, tomato, red onions, cucumber, and carrots, I requested balsamic dressing. One tip is to order your dressing on the side as they were quite generous with it. My friend ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, salad with Cesar dressing, and clam chowder. I'm not sure how often the soup menu changes. He also mentioned a little kick to his sandwich. To drink, I had an herbal iced tea with Hibiscus and he had the Thai iced tea. And we also bought a blueberry muffin for later. We pinched off a couple of pieces while waiting for our food and we can't wait to finish it tonight. The restaurant has a very nice variety of sandwiches, several salad choices, breakfast options, as well as specialty items like spring rolls and beer battered salmon tacos. You order at the counter and they deliver the food to your table. The decor is simple and clear. Definitely worth a visit. ”
“ Did takeout from here and it was delicious. Greek salad and Asian plate very fresh. The standout was a gluten free dirt bomb. Omg, fabulous! And we aren't even gluten free but it looked so good that we had to try one. Fun ambience, good service. Nothing fancy, just good! ”
“ This place rocks! Totally unexpected fresh blueberry muffins. Free wifi Must check it out. ”
“ Food was delicious and came out quickly. Portions were huge and everything was very fresh. It was very crowded and therefore very, very loud. Not a good place to have a conversation. ”
“ Let's start this Santa Fe week off right! They accepted credit card - just need to update 'cash only'. The menu is quite vast & a cup of dark coffee seems to be alright. The vibe, that is amazing. Kids friendly & Barista are cheerful. Everyone plays their parts. A lot of patrons working on their laptop at the cafe even in the morning. I sat the front patio for the morning breeze & the price is what you'd expect for a trendy place. I am not sure, this is Hipster spot but I d come back next time. ( No hippies in the cafe as far as I know, hey this is " Counter Culture" #ykyk). Again, this is Santa Fe, NM if you feel particularly not welcome, it is not about you. Learn how to blend in first, which I know local folks here, so I ain't surprised. The SouthWestern Pride :) There is a parking lot & the small galleries in the compound! ”
“ They are no longer cash only. Yay! I have given it another try because we loved it SO MUCH before covid. Happy to report that the staff was friendly & the food is still delicious. Love the hibiscus herbal ice tea... it IS slightly sweet but not too much for me. I am still disappointed that they continue to use Styrofoam & plastic to go containers, but I have HOPE that they will correct this. (The food is so good I seldom have Leftovers, but I won't order takeout here until they get sustainable containers. ”
“ This is one of the local favorite famous for the cinnamon bun. Personally I don't like cinnamon bun so I went for their regular breakfast menu. I ordered cowboy boy. The portion is massive, it needs two person to finish. It's also very heavy with a lot of cheese, sauce and carb. Not sure if it's healthy option but it taste decent. You go to counter to order then take a number to find wherever to sit. Clean up after you finish. Self serve is pretty efficient. ”
