I visited Satellite Coffee for the first time a couple of days ago. Overall, it was a nice experience. The decor with it's earth tones kind of reminds me somewhat of Panera Bread. I did notice they have a lot of outlets if you need to charge your electronic devices. They also have free Wi-Fi. The staff was very pleasant and there was a chill vibe to the place. I've yet to try any of their food and I'm giving this review based on 1 caramel/vanilla latte. It was decent and I enjoyed it.....but there are a couple of coffee shops nearby where I've had better. It's hard to beat Humble Coffee or Michael Thomas Coffee Roasters. I'd visit again, though, and would recommend if you're in that area.
This coffee shop is the only nice place on Central Avenue. Possibly the only good spot in Albuquerque, to be honest.Friendly staff and delicious coffee.
Flying Star absolutely sucks, but I can always count on good service and drinks from satellite. It’s weird how that is considering they’re under the same ownership. The baristas are always helpful and kind. Additionally, the barista who helped me today around 4:30 on 3/8/22 was so patient, kind, and helpful. What a dude!
Friendly staff baristas and a great relaxing atmosphere. The coffee is really good the Doctor is a plus for cold flu season love it.
Hands down my favorite coffee shop in town. I know this is somewhat of a chain, but really every location feels like its own place... I come from a small town and this really feels like the only coffee shop in abq where there is that same sense of community, where the baristas know both you and your order when you come in enough. I am terrified of this chain becoming more gentrified... as is, its a spot where anyone from any walk of life can come and feel welcome, with amazing coffee, and always playin some really good tunes. 10/10 college art kid hangout.
Outstanding service, polite and helpful. Drink selection is superb and prepared with care. The food products are a bit pricey but tasty. Excellent ambience to chat or study with nearby fireplace offsets any pricey food or drink.
Location, location, location. That's what I like about this Satellite. Located on Alameda, just east of Corrales Road, it's a great stop for a quick grab-and-go or a casual sit-and-sip. This time around I stopped to resupply our coffee reserves picking up a bag of Ethiopian beans and a bag of Tanzania Peaberry. Two definite favorites. So next time you want to go for a hike, bike, or run head to the Alameda Open Space and then stop here to refuel, relax, and recover.
Quick and efficient. Good coffee.
Awesome little joint and the coffee is on point. Only disappointment is the hours that were cut back!! Would love to hang out here in the evening!...
Hard to get to parking.. that said after 3 turnabouts a great cup o coffee and a great sandwich.
