The Flying Star Cafe is a casual, yet hip and trendy place to go to read your morning paper, indulge in a fabulous breakfast and people watch. You'll see locals at the breakfast bar, surfing away, and the neighborhood folks out on the patio enjoying the beautiful weather in the summer. The food here is all locally sourced when possible. Inside, playfully painted walls and ceilings (including clouds) greet customers in this friendly cafe, serving pastries and breakfast all day. Signature dishes include Eggs Florentine, Spanish Frittata, Breakfast Hash and the Rise and Shine Sandwich. New Mexican breakfasts are offered, as are the more traditional eggs, flapjacks and their incredible french toast that will make you lick the platter clean. Now with eight locations in Albuquerque and one in Santa Fe, Flying Star is pet friendly, offering what they call a "petio."
