"Heatwave Coffee is one of my favorite spots in Albuquerque. The coffee is consistently excellent, and their cortado is dialed in perfectly smooth, balanced, and never overpowered. The vibe is relaxed, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and it’s a great place to slow down for a minute. Huge bonus that they sell Little Bear Coffee beans too, which makes it easy to take great coffee home. Whether you’re grabbing a quick drink or hanging out, Heatwave delivers every time."
"I visited Albuquerque for the first time and found Heatwave Coffee to be absolutely amazing! The atmosphere is cozy, the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely seem to love what they do. They also sell some high quality merchandise like apparel and coffee accessories. You can really taste the quality in every cup. I tried a vanilla latte and it was perfectly balanced—not too sweet, with rich espresso and creative flavors. Bonus points for the fast Wi-Fi, comfy seating, and clean bathrooms. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup to go or settling in for a few hours, this place hits all the right notes. Highly recommend!"
