Fresh flowers grace the wooden tables and light streams through the large windows at this cheerful bakery and eatery. Owner Diane Barrett's menu includes Hatch-green-chile Benedict, "Grandma's" spaghetti, steaks, and a deftly prepared lemon-caper chicken. The sandwiches are all made with wonderfully tasty house-baked bread; if you're in the mood for something sweet, don't hesitate—this chef really shines when it comes to desserts. Bottled microbrews and well-chosen wines are available. There's a popular Sunday Champagne brunch.
For a family evening out with no worries about the kids being loud or throwing their peanut shells on the floor, Farley's is the place. Choose from a huge menu of basic pub victuals: popcorn shrimp, burgers and sandwiches, salads, wood-fired pizzas, all sorts of appetizers, and, of course, beer. There are TVs everywhere, plus a few video games and pool tables.
Tuck away the breakfast burrito in a sundried-tomato tortilla; the spinach, onion, and feta cheese omelet; the kielbasa scramble; or one of the tasty bagels, and you'll be sated for hours—there's potent coffee, too. Lunch options include soups, salads, and sandwiches. Try the hummus or grilled polenta-and-provolone sandwiches, or build your own. This is a cozy spot with a handful of tables and no pretensions, but a pleasant patio doubles the size.
Owner Ray Hodges believes in hearty food and lots of it—so if you're in the mood for a heaping plate of thick barbecued pork ribs, cube steak, or deep-fried fish, this is the place for you. Late in the day, the ultracasual dining area is usually filled with hungry anglers who've stopped to relax and chow down after a day of fishing. Come in earlier in the day to buy a bucket of home-fried chicken to take with you to the lake.
Hearty, delicious fare including steaks, burgers, hot sandwiches, homemade pie, Mexican pineapple cake, and delicious milk shakes are served on red-and-white checkered tablecloths here. The place is usually busy with all sorts of characters, all of whom seem very happy to be here. Service is a bit harried, but friendly.
Craft beers and classic comfort fare that favors locally grown ingredients are the draws at this bustling spot with a smart layout, excellent service, and inviting outdoor dining—complete with a view over the Mesilla Valley. Pecan wood is used for grilling steak and chicken, and burgers and rib-eyes come smothered with green chile and Amber Ale–grilled onions. Try the Napa salad, with just the right balance of candied pecans and fresh greens.
This microbrewery and restaurant is right on the main drag and is almost always full of happy locals drinking good beer and eating calzones, thin-crust pizzas, homemade soups, and big, fresh salads. It's hard to go wrong here, unless you're in a hurry. "Hurry" isn't on this menu, though the service is friendly.
This cheap and simple insider's favorite offers drive-through, carryout, or eat-in dining. If you choose the latter, step inside the bustling mural-lined space, sit down at one of the solid wood tables. Wherever you dine, take your pick from a menu that wanders from basic biscuits-and-gravy to fajitas combo plates to barbecue ribs with plenty of side dishes. Leave room for cherry pie or chocolate cake for dessert.
