    Great food for a decent price, even counting the recent inflation. Indoor seating was limited during our visit and it's on a find it on your own basis. It was loud in the back where we finally found a table. Not complaining but some people aren't into that. Lots of beers on tap. Small arcade for the kids. During warmer months the outdoor seating looks great. Good to finally find a restaurant in ABQ with good salads, pizza, and atmosphere.

    Popular hangout spot for the locals. Affordable food options with something for everyone, from the "meataterian" to the vegan. Order what you want and you'll either receive a card to have your food delivered to wherever you tell them you're going to sit, or you'll get a pager which will beep to let you know to come get your nosh. Drink a brew at the Santa Fe Brewing Co tap room (inside or on the roof) and then stay for the most delicious locally made ice cream. There's an arcade (old school vibes) and a great little New Mexico centric boutique upstairs too. There are misting fans upstairs for hot days and heaters and a fire pit for cold. Choose a party bucket table to sit and enjoy a few with friends. Cis gender bathrooms downstairs, but all gendered handicap single room bathrooms upstairs tucked behind the bar on the roof outside. There is elevator access. Balloon fiesta time gets a little crazy because it's close to the field and the freeway, so get there early or don't get a seat. Plenty of parking save for the busiest of days as long as you don't mind an easy walk.

    This is a fun place. Great food selections (pizza, BBQ, and more). Coffee. Beer. Nice selection of eateries. Pics Of the menus below. Lots of seating upstairs and downstairs. We have no problem finding parking but the place was busy. Family friendly. You can get a beer at Santa Fe Brewing but take it anywhere *inside* the building to sit and enjoy, upstairs or downstairs. We will come here again! 🍺 The staff were nice. You can also order food and take it inside the brewery to eat it.

    You come here for the balconey views, beer, and the nice hangout areas, less so for the food. Because its hard to find the individual restaurants here on google maps, here they are ranked from best to worst: 1. Guava Tree 2. Amore Pizza 3. SA BBQ (ovepriced, small portions)/ Pho Kupp (bland food, charges you for siracha) 4. Flip Flop (just plain bad)

    Great location! Went there on a Saturday during business hours and half the restaurants were closed. Similar vibe to Sawmill Market - you go here for the atmosphere and variety (in theory), not the high-quality food. On one visit, I struck up a conversation with one of the restaurant owners and they admitted that most of their product was prepared off site due to a lack of space. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it takes away from the experience a little bit. Please note: My reviews get updated based on experience 🙂

    Brewery & several different cafes. There is a food or beer for everyone here, even ice creams. We walked around while our food from Amore Pizza was being cooked. Arcade, brewery, shopping, views, & great food what else do you need? Oh right great customer service & friendly staff! Never seen metal shipping containers used in such a unique way. You can eat at one cafe then try another on your next visit, until you have had them all. Great p,Ave for the individual or a large group. Come on in & have fun you will not be disappointed

    First time and I was not disappointed. Went in on a Saturday afternoon, plenty of easy parking, ample (spaced out) seating indoors and outdoors. Appreciated that the staff all had masks on and wearing them appropriately. We had the smoked out nachos and the triple threat. Food came out quick. Nachos were delicious and the triple threat was good (would have preferred a little more of the very tasty bbq sauce). You can order at the counter or from your table. Very convenient. Restrooms were very clean.

    I’ll start by saying the atmosphere and creativity of the this place is really cool, but I do have a few issues with the following: 1.) The food court has 4 places to choose from. We chose ON THE FLIP. Do NOT eat there. Food was horrible (see pics). We ordered steak tacos but they were anything but steak. They tasted like pot roast tacos. Then I ordered the buffalo wings…these were anything but buffalo wings…they were pieces of chicken doused in buffalo sauce. I can’t speak for the other eateries but this place was horrible. 2.) the other issue I have with the place is the location of the T.v’s in the Santa Fe brewing co. We went to watch the ncaa tourney and not all seats have a good view of the screens. The position of the screens are odd making it difficult for everyone in your party to watch. Overall this place has a unique and cool concept if you want to bring friends and family to enjoy some drinks,ice cream, barbque, and or Fooseball. However if your looking for good bar food and a place to watch the game….SKIP!

    First time visiting this place and was immediately impressed. For a large, open venue, it was not noisy, overwhelming. Used the QR code for the menu of the various eateries and was able to figure out what I was interested in before approaching a vendor. I waa impressed with the food, the efficiency in which it was served and my guests were pleased. I definitely would recommend this to others to try, and will personally be back for more.

    Fun dining experience with several different food options, beers, and dessert. Most of us ate at the Guava Tree and thoroughly enjoyed our meals, even though they screwed up some of the orders. Great plantains. Find a table, scan the QR code for the menu, pay online, and wait for your order to be brought to the table. I had the Cubano sandwich for dinner and it was the right size, accompanied by a couple of beers and dessert

    Tin Can Alley was a lot of fun. There were so many choices! I really enjoyed my food, I thought that the people serving were very nice and very helpful. After lunch, I got a coffee on my way out! What a great lunch!

    Met up with a small group of gal pals. Great selection of beers. Does offer wine and has recently added cocktails. Food court with ramen, barbecue, Cuban sandwiches, salads. The night we were there the QR codes were not working. Service fairly quick food is food court tasting, but pairs well with beer. Lots of seating indoor and out.

    Great place to go with friends. Everyone can choose what they want to eat. It has plenty of seating on the lower and upper level.

  • 5/5 Brian H. 11 months ago on Google
    Great outside seating on the patio, interior seating is plentiful, great selection of libations, the layout is inviting and comfortable, selection of cuisine is wide and tasteful.

    Did not like the meatball sliders at all. Incredibly sloppy and hard to eat. While eating i was studying for the sat. Finishing this food makes me wanna purposely fail the SAT and tear the test sheet to pieces while in the testing room. Whatever you do dont eat at amore pizza there’s a reason why the line is so short. Also it’s overpriced.

    We had such a good time at Tin Can Alley, I decided to get lunch from S-A bbq. Then hopped over to the Santa Fe brewing section to enjoy a drink and topped it all off with a few sweet treats from Cake Fetish bakery.

  • 5/5 Ted H. 8 months ago on Google
    Tin Can Alley is a fun place to visit with a variety of restaurants within it. We ate at the Guava Tree Cafe which has delicious Cuban food. Why they have indoor seating the upstairs outside patios are fun to sit in.

    Not sure what all the complaints are about. We loved our visit here! I was happy that I was able to get tacos and my husband was able to get pho then we ended with cupcakes. There’s beautiful art and views. The food was good! Definitely recommend

    On my second attempt at trying this place 1st time I had a burger,and I was met with disappointment. It was the messiest burger I had ever encountered, and to make matters worse, it wasn't even cooked properly. I decided to leave it and thought maybe it was an off night. Fast forward three months later, we found ourselves in the same neighborhood and decided to give Cuban food a chance. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the most repulsive food I had ever tasted, resembling hot trash. I ordered the chicken and wife order the pork sandwich, along with a side of fries, but they only gave us three fries each. To add to the disappointment, the lemonade we ordered had a taste reminiscent of sewer water. This experience has left a sour taste in our mouths, and we have decided that it will be our last visit. It's a shame because the atmosphere was great and had a relaxed vibe. However, both the burger spot and the Cuban food were horrible. On a positive note, the pizza did look appetizing. If you're looking to save your money and have a better dining experience, I would recommend visiting Green Jeans or 505 Central Food Hall instead.

    Great Vibe for the 20-40 crowd. Lots of eateries and brews. Nice to see private vendors inside
