Kickstand Cafe

This place has just about the freshest food. Great sandwiches, and there carrot cake is to die for!!!! MMM, so good! Highly consider coming here. The service is great and the people who work there have such lovely personalities!

I was super stoked for this new business I made an appointment to pick up an electric rental bike. Mike was super nice and got me all set with the rental. Unfortunately less than 30min into the 4hr rental the bike got a flat, Mike was able to come roughly 30min later with a replacement. The replacement also had a flat when it was dropped off and had to be filled at the gas station. Within 30min both tires were flat again. Now this ride was 1/2 bike trail 1/2 sidewalk/asphalt and less than 3 miles and it’s not the cafes fault that Albuquerque bike trails are littered with goat-head stickers, HOWEVER, after waiting 30 min for the first replacement to receive it with a flat tire and then getting two more flats within the next 30min the idea was scrapped and requested that the bike just be picked up. Waited another 45min for it to be picked up, had the bike about two hours(only 45 min of actual ride time) Mike had mentioned giving a credit. Waited a few days, no credit. I called after a week and 1/2 and spoke with someone who mentioned they would look into it and call me back the next day. No call back, no answer. Even after everything I did not plan on leaving a bad review because, well, goat heads suck, that’s no ones fault but after not receiving a refund and no call back I’m really disappointed. As a new business I hope they get their kinks worked out it’s a super fun concept, I was really excited for them and their plans for expansion and their menu plans but terribly disappointed with their customer service when things go awry. I hope to delete this review if I hear back from them or if a refund is issued as promised.
Update after response: I am from out of town and this was normal riding on a bike trail, the route was recommended by Mike as I am from out of town and asked him how to get to the destination we looked at the google maps together and took the trail recommmended. Im not sure how someone “rides through cactus” but the bike was not taken through cactus 😄 it was not taken off the bike trail recommended, goats heads are everywhere and that is what punctured the tires not cactus and it would make sense to proof the tires. The first time being brought a replacement bike the front tire ALREADY HAD A FLAT ON ARRIVAL and already had stickers in the back from being ridden by the owner to be dropped off had it been noticed before he left it would have been mentioned. when both tires went flat again after being aired up a 3rd bike was not requested just for it to simply be picked up. It’s note worthy that the first flat when called about they already knew how it got flat over the phone, they knew it got flat from goat heads without being told, so clearly this has happened before and they already know this is a problem.

The employees are friendly and Its a cool place but honestly The one star is for the Food It was way overpriced and poor cheap quality for what you pay the quality should be as good as The grove cafe I think this place is best for someone who just wants a coffee If they get better quality ingredients it will be an improvement

Wonderful experience! Great camaraderie between staff and with patrons. Beautiful space with beautiful pastries. Accommodating for food sensitivities. Food was delicious, chai was well done. Highly recommended!

The blood orange lemonade was really tasty. The eggs in the breakfast burrito were very flavorful and creamy

Today was my first visit there and I highly recommend it. The food, drinks, and desserts were delicious! The owners are all about customer service and the atmosphere was clean and friendly. I will be a repeat customer for sure!😉👍

What a wonderful treat! It's like sitting in a friend's living room.. Emily, Toby and Mike made us feel right at home. Oh, and YES! the food and drinks were fantastic! Thank you all.. I'll be back!

Such a unique spot. Def. recommend stopping by for a bite to eat.

After spending $16 on a turkey sandwich and waiting 20 min with one other customer in the restaurant I was anxious to see the quality. Nonetheless I wish I could post a pic of the sandwich.

This place is awesome, had lunch there today. The food was great, lemonade was incredible and the place looks so cool.
