Reviews for The Cornerstone Bakery & Cafe in Ruidoso, NM
We ate here on August, 2 and the food was incredible. My husband doesn't usually go for green chilles but when he tried my... pulled pork omelet with the green chille sauce, he loved it! I also highly recommend the desert pear lemonade and the greenchile cheese toast. Everything we ate was delicious and it made us want to visit New Mexico again just for their food. Read more
Went here 2 days this past weekend. First day the ordering was alright. The girl taking our orders (there were 5 of us) wouldn't... let us make separate orders she said the waiter would separate everything for us. We had multiple mistakes on the order thefirst day but the waiter was great and fixed everything. They also charged us a $30 service charge. The club sandwich wasdelicious and the crapes were very good the salmon salad was great and the baked goods were great. The second day I wasn't veryhungry so I opted for just a lemonade and a cup of fruit salad. They wouldn't allow me to make a separate order again so we allhad to put the stuff on one order. The lemonade was pure sugar water and completely un drinkable the $4 fruit salad consisted ofthawed out frozen pineapple old strawberries and old grapes. There were lots of mistakes on the orders again and they charged aservice charge yet again. My lemonade, fruit cup and loaf of bread costed $21 after the tax service charge and the baked goodthey added to my order by mistake. Overall most of the food was great but the communication between staff and the entireordering system is terrible. I hope the issues are resolved so that others don't have to have the same problems Read more
Last stop and early morning breakfast before making the long road trip back to Austin. Saw the reviews of this place and knew we... had to try it! Got there around 8am and had their green chile omelette with a croissant and my boyfriend had the rio ranchohuevos rancheros with green chile and we decided to share a berry crepe! He had morning coffee while I had their freshlysqueezed OJ! Everything was AMAZING! I really wanted to try green chile before we left town (since New Mexico was known for it)and this really hit the spot. The OJ was also some of the best I?ve had. My bf isn?t the biggest crepe eater but he loved theberry crepe. The eggs in my omelette were so soft and pillowy and melted in my mouth! Coffee was freshly brewed this morning andmy boyfriend really appreciated it (as sometimes they serve one day old coffee and we appreciate when it does come fresh). Imnot much of a diner person usually but love to stop during road trips and this is definitely up there as one of my favorite onesI?ve tried so far! They also had a wide selection of amazing pastries in their bakery. I hope to come back here soon and trytheir gigantic Texas styled cinnamon roll! The service was amazing and it was very spacious with their seating. We also got ourfood SUPER FAST as well. So amazing and quick service! Couldn?t recommend this place enough! The beautiful waitress complimentedmy bf on his baby yoda Christmas sweater and he really appreciated it! Left a smile on our face as this was the last spot wechecked out on our trip to Ruidoso! 5/5 stars! Read more
Unusual process for ordering. You order in one area, they give you a table number which you then have to find. You pay at your... table. However, food and service are great. It can get very busy with a 20 or 30 minute wait. Parking can be an issue as wellbut it is worth the wait. I had a half sandwich which was plenty. (Pictured is a half order of their version of a French dip,great). Most likely the busiest place in Ruidosa. Try to visit in off prime time. Even the lowly potatoe salad was really good.Place, excluding parking was ADA complainant and they had a really nice enclosed heated outdoor patio. I will be back often. Read more
Friendly staff! Amazing breakfast you order in front and they direct you to your table. Coffee 5 stars alone and the mixed berry... crepes were amazing. Patio available as well Read more
Poor customer service. Ordering & seating arrangement is confusing. Food did arrive quickly but the cheese on my omelet wasn't... melted, potatoes were cold, & saddest of all my coffee was cold! It was the quite the ordeal to get the slice of pie we ordered.However, we did like the cool bottle that held the water ???? Read more
The food was good, loved the french toast. The Caramel latte was quite sweet. There is a bit of confusion when you first arrive... and order, one of the hostess/order takers was short with customers and didn't explain much. If you want to sit inside and needto wait no one explains to you how this will work as seating is as you order and each customer finds their own. Even though itwas a bit on the busier side when we arrived, our food did come out pretty quickly. We also had several servers checking on onour table. Additionally, (like most businesses in Ruidoso we discovered) no one is following the state mask mandate. Whileeating we could hear a loud deep cough from the kitchen followed a member of the wait staff yelling, "Cover your mouth!" Thekitchen staffer yelled back, "I did!" With a state that has such a high number of covid cases right now, no one wearing a maskin a restaurant working with food is concerning. Especially in a town filled with tourists. Read more
The large coke was 3 dollars, the large milk was 4 dollars. The sausage gravy had 1 piece of sausage, and the gravy and biscuits... were SWEET! My wife also ordered an omelet and asked for specifics items off of it, and they got none of it right. Probably dueto the chaotic nature of the restaurant. Wanted to like this place with the great reviews, but if you actually start readingreviews they're not above a 3 star review for most of them. Over priced and overly sweet gravy is a no for myself and my family! Read more
