“ Went to lunch and the sandwiches were delicious. I had the Liberty, which had turkey cheddar, lettuce, tomato, mustard, and sprouts. It was very flavorful. I had a side of pasta which I could have done without, the other plate was the Rio Grande sandwich with the chicken noodle soup and chips. The soup was just soup, but the sandwich hit! Stacked full of shaved pastrami, turkey, ham, cheese and green chile on a pita served warm was so juicy and chalk full of flavor! Would I go back for the sandwiches, in a quick heartbeat! ”
“ Have been eating here for the best part of 45 years. BEST BLT in Albuquerque! Chicken salad is amazing! Apple Waldorf is indescribably delicious! Not a bad thing on the menu. ”
“ This place was amazing, the food was fantastic, and the service was way above normal expectations. It is run by a family and they make you feel like you're a part of it. I went in the day before mother's Day and they even gave me a flower before I left. My daughter and I enjoyed our lunch together, she had the Sicilian sandwich with a strawberry Italian soda, I had the focaccia sandwich, and we got the sweet n' spicy chicken sandwich to go. They all came with a side of green chili chicken soup. We will definitely be back. ”
“ Cheese and coffee did a HUGE catering order for my school and they rocked it out of the park. Their fees are incredibly reasonable for the amount of food you get. Everyone loved their lunches. Thank you all so, so much! ”
“ Delicious food! Wonderful, clean atmosphere. All the wait staff were cheerful, eager to make their customers comfortable and happy with full bellies. A little pricey, but well worth it. ”
“ The spicy and delicious Beef Patty Melt with added green chili was served piping hot. The Green Chili Soup was very spicy but also very delicious. We had a Cinnamon Roll that came out hot; almost first baked fresh and was a very light tasty treat. I would highly recommend Cheese and Coffee and will definitely will be going back soon. ”
“ Alright they def need a bigger waiting area to take pickup orders/ seat people, but I liked the rustic feel. Great weekend or lunch spot. The sandwich was amazing, I had the sweet and spicy. Little pricey but worth it. I would like to see a menu option of just a sandwich for few bucks less with out chips and a side for the deluxe sandwiches. Of you're looking for a great sandwich come here. ”
“ Never disappoints. Delicious food! The Big Apple or Reuben sandwich are my favs, and you must try the green chili chicken soup. Lunch time can be very busy so plan accordingly. ”
