Food is unreal and service is excellent! I had the French Dip and it had to be the one of the best I’ve ever had. Will be back soon to try other things on their menu.
I really enjoy eating here. Sadly, I don't always remember to eat here, but when I do I always have a great time. The food tastes great and has good portions sizes that are worth the money. The staff is always friendly and polite too. The only thing that I wish was different was the size of the restaurant. It is a bit small and can feel a bit cramped. Despite that, they make good use of the available space. I definitely recommend eating here.
The absolute best lunch place in New Mexico. It’s a 505 treasure, the twin sisters treat everyone like they are in their home eating at the table. The vibe of C and C is created by the sisters but the exceptional quality and service is a standard they set. Their soups are out of this world. We had a cinnamon roll that changed the world! Thank you!!
Never yet been disappointed with food, staff, or atmosphere. Believe me lunch time at the Cheese and Coffee on Louisiana is the place to go from time to time and reminisce about the days of past with a friend while savoring the satisfying flavors the“Twins” have mastered! I take my hat off and salute these gals with five stars for excellence! Truly an Albuquerque hidden treasure. Best Wishes

Cheese and Coffee is hands down my FAVORITE restaurant of all time. Whenever I visit Albuquerque I have to stop and eat here at least two times before heading back to Illinois. The staff is so incredibly friendly and they always go above and beyond whether I’m dining in or picking up a carry out order. The food is always fresh and I never have to wait long. To make things even better the price is amazing for the amount of food you get. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone who enjoys green chili soup, good food and wholesome people.
Excellent sandwiches and soup. I recommend the Big Apple Sandwich. Reasonable prices, fun local atmosphere. Get there early to avoid crowd.
Such a cute and friendly lil cafe! The staff is kind and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is quaint and has that small town feel. The sandwiches are excellent, and the salads are so fresh and always delicious. The soups are to die for, but make sure you come in early! A must stop while in ABQ.
This is a must have!! We finally got around to trying it out and we were not disappointed in the least. I can't say enough good things about this place, their service, their food, their selection!! I can't wait to go back.
I had forgotten about this little gem of a café. It had been around 18 or so years since last I visited. It used to be a regular favorite before I moved out of the area.
I ordered The Big Apple and added green chili. I opted for the Greek salad. It was absolutely fantastic. I wish the salad had more than just one very small Kalamata olive. Now that it's back on my radar, I'll be back again soon.
I was trying to decide where to go for lunch and happened to notice this cafe for the first time. The window has "Love your Lunch" written in red across it and it was all the sign I needed. Inside is a cute little cafe with burlap bags hanging from the ceiling and a the oldest register I've ever seen on display to the side. I was greeted as soon as I entered! I decided to get an Arty's Special which is a sandwich of ham, bacon, green chile, and cheese on grilled sourdough with a greek salad. Saying that sandwich was delicious does not even begin to describe how amazing it was! I will be craving every day! I will be back! As soon as I decided what I wanted and set down my menu the nicest waitress came to take my order. And the food was brought to me before I'd even finished reading a page in my book. Parking was easy, service was prompt, everyone was super friendly, and the sandwich was totally worth the $10.25! I highly recommend them!
We came during the busy lunch rush and we were still seated quickly! Our server was a genuine delight and even made me fresh coffee even though it was the afternoon. (Who gets coffee at that time? I know, I felt awful) This place has a charming feel to it-kinda reminds me of a diner you would find in a small town, where everything is homemade, and everyone knows each other. We got the Chelsea sandwich and a tuna melt. My sandwich came with the choice of side and I opted for the soup! It was the southwest soup and it was definitely a perfect representation of that southwest flavor. Very comforting! Sandwiches were delicious too. Highly recommend!
Such a charming and cozy place :) Ask the staff for recommendations if you aren’t sure what to get, I was recommended the sweet n’ spicy and it was delicious. Update: came back and tried the Reuben too, loved it :)
Sandwiches are good but the Green Chile Chicken Stew is GREAT and is the true star of the show. Roasted chicken, green chilies with just the right amount of spice to excite your taste buds without causing physical damage.
Cheese and Coffee is an Albuquerque fixture still owned by the sisters. I've been going there since I moved to Abq in 1987 and it's still the best place to get your favorite sandwich or soup. Get there early as the line is out the door by 11:30.

Advisory: you will absolutely love this place! I have to admit that I almost didn't post a review cause I wanted to keep this place close to my heart, but I would be doing a disservice to the amazing food, and the very personable staff.
Follow your senses and divert a couple blocks north of the chains around Uptown,l; you will be very happy you did!
Recs: Chelsea and Sweet n tasty!) with green chili chicken soup
Great local stop for Sandwiches / Soups / Salads. Big selection . Delicious. Highly recommend.
I've been getting takeout here for over a decade. The food is always great, and the staff is always kind, but today they went above and beyond!
I called to order my regular, the salad trio with egg, Ceasar, and Waldorf salad. The gentleman on the phone informed me that they were out of egg salad, and since that's my favorite, I said I'd call and order another day.
About 5.minutes later I got a call back, letting me know they had made more fresh egg salad, just for me!
Day made!
The sweetest ladies working here (sisters, maybe even twins). They make you feel so welcome. They were quick, the food was tasty, and again, the service was great.
