So Cute! 10/10! Great for a mild, sunny weekend morning. Bring a book or bring someone to chat with. Reasonably priced beverages and breakfast items. The staff is very friendly and quick. You won’t be disappointed!

Spent the night in the backseat of my truck after arriving in Carlsbad NM. Before my journey to explore some parks, I required some protein rich breakfast. I wasnt disappointed when I stumbled upon Blue House Bakery & Cafe. As I couldnt find a local establishment late night for dinner on the previous night, I was determined to get some local breakfast. I had a breakfast burrito ( with sausage & potatoes) which was the right proportion not to slow me down on my planned hikes in Carlsbad Caverns an hour later. My only regret was not getting some of their tasty looking baked treats to enjoy later in the day.Sorry for the bad pics, but there were SO many locals there that all seemed to know one another & I didnt want to get the faces in the pics. As I ate alone at an outdoors table, surrounded by locals saying good morning & asking what took each other so long, I almost felt out of place, yet entirely welcome at the same time... But that can happen when traveling cross country alone 😃

We recently spent 3 nights in Carlsbad and went here every morning for breakfast. We sampled pastries, the egg croissant, egg bowl, French toast, and waffle. All were good. The croissants the best of them all.Their coffee was very good as well.The restaurant is very inviting with lots of outdoors eating. The staff is very friendly. They seemed to know all the locals that came in.Overall we loved it.

Ordered egg bowl with bacon and potatoes for $5.75. It was the smallest breakfast ever. I dont think there was even 1 egg in the bowl, the bacon was not fresh made, and the potatoes were a few slivers. My husband had biscuits & gravy and commented that it appeared the biscuits were not fresh made and the gravy was out of a can. Pastries were very good, so we would return to get pastries and coffee but will not waste our money on the breakfast.

It was a great place for breakfast. Nice outdoor seating and friendly service. Obviously very popular because it got busy fast. The waffle was great and filling.

Excellent food and service. Had the croissant breakfast sandwich with green Chiles and bacon, the salsa was perfectly spicy. Latte was excellent. But the highlight was one of their scratch made cinnamon rolls. All enjoyed under the shade of a lovely tree on their patio. A great breakfast after a week of hiking the Guadalupes!

Really amazing little place to have breakfast! Their burritos are great and all of their baked items are really good! Everything tastes freshly made. If youre looking for a hearty breakfast or even just something sweet in the AM theyve got you covered. Nice ending to a trip to new mexico!

Nice atmosphere for our Saturday brunch before heading home to Austin. We enjoyed the breakfast sandwich with sausage, french toast, and Belgian waffle. Everything was really good especially the Snickerdoodle cookies we bought for the trip home. Those were the best Snickerdoodle cookies weve ever had. Really wish wed gotten more!

Nice breakfast stop for the family. The service, food, atmosphere, and coffee were all very good. They have a friendly resident cat that the kids enjoyed petting. We’ll be sure to visit Blue House again the next time we’re in the area.

Driving through this little town and found this wonderful bakery. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, the people and service - very friendly. I wish this place was closer to home. Only thing that was wrong is the breakfast burritos got mixed and one person didnt eat his burrito while the other ate two. If driving through would love to eat here again.

First time going and the food was great...a little pricey but wed rather pay those prices for a small business during a tough time than Starbucks (or the like). Service was good, food was hot and fresh. Adequate seating outdoors. They also did to-go orders, but we just walked in. Recommend!

Only a breakfast spot. Decent coffee and pastry selection. Staff not friendly though and you better know what you want before you walk in the door or youll be greeted with some unnecessary impatience. Im sorry I took 20 seconds to look at the menu options. Would recommend somewhere else.

Amazing food and service with great ambiance. We had the biscuits and gravy, French toast, and an orange white chocolate scone and each were delicious. Even though we had to sit outside because of fraudulent governor orders, they had heaters and comfortable outside furniture. Will definitely be back.

Review №53

The staff was pretty nice and helpful. And we enjoyed our food. However they don’t enforce their customers to wear masks. At least four customers came in without wearing masks. It started to get crowded and I felt very unsafe. I know it’s a state-wide mandate so I don’t understand why they wouldn’t just ask them to do so. Or least take their order outside. I think it would have been a great experience if they just would cared more about the customer’s safety rather than just pleasing their locals who refuse to follow rules.

The old house is more welcoming and has more personality than the staff. Seems like being a local is the only way to ensure friendly service? Which is a shame... At least they can pull a good shot.Grabbed a latte and croissant to go.

This was by far my favorite stop on my trip to southeast New Mexico! It was a nice quaint little coffee shop off the main strip. Everyone working was extremely nice and hustling to get all orders filled. I would highly recommend anyone stopping in at or traveling through the Carlsbad area to visit Blue House Cafe. They have great coffee and breakfast options that will suite all who are hungry.

Oh man, coffee was awesome! I got a ham n cheebs pastry,friend had a scone and cinniroll. Ham pastry was super savory and flakey, cinniroll had a great balance and lastly the scone wasnt a brick. It was busy when we came but the staff was on it!

My girl and I stopped here for a quick breakfast before going to Carlsbad Caves. Got the French toast and bagel sandwich along with a hot chocolate for my girl. I ordered two over easy eggs, a piece of toast, and a water for myself. I prefer a smaller breakfast. Well we got to the caves and everything was there except for my eggs and water. So I had a piece of bread for breakfast. No one in the establishment had masks on either (employees or customers) and some customers made a rude comment about my Fiancé’s Nike shorts on the way inside. We came from Texas where it’s hot plus we’ve been on the road for hours dressed for comfort. She has Nike shorts on get over it? Maybe it’s because we’re an interracial couple that would explain all the sideways looks or maybe they were shocked masks were present.

Great little place! We stopped here to get breakfast & liked it so much we opted to have breakfast here the next morning before leaving town! They make everything from scratch so if they run out of something youll have to get there earlier the next day! Very popular place with the locals & tourists (like us)! The employees are great with their customers and extremely efficient so dont let the long line deter you from waiting - it doesnt take long & its well worth the wait!
