What do I enjoy about Cafecito?
I have four reasons for loving to be at Cafecito: 1st, the ambiance that Andes and Solange have created. 2nd, the sun, air, colors, and plants, 3rd, the food, and the staff after all. This room is big and bright and has the distinct feeling of painting in a greenhouse! The unusual and unique menu, chock-full of fresh hand-made, locally sourced deliciousness. It’s my studio and these wonderful folks cook, serve and clean up after me... amazing.
What keeps you coming back?
The cordiality of Andres and Solange having allowed me to have the best studio in Santa Fe makes this a 3-4 time a week destination. The light, the big tables, the waiter service on a very special and unique menu. They are a blessing.
I started painting at Cafecito before it was even open. I met Andres and Solange because I sat at the outdoor patio so I could paint. Even then, they excitedly and enthusiastically opened Cafecito to me. Been coming back ever since.”
