We made two visits while we were in Alamagordo. The first day was to sample the Pistachios and Wine (good service and free samples). We would have stayed longer to have a glass of wine on their patio, but it was too windy/cool. Since the patio and view were so nice, we decided to come back the next day. They do have some boxed crackers, cheese, and beef stick that you can purchase, but you're also welcome to bring your own snacks. It's worth checking out.

Gorgeous and historic church. I'm a lifelong Catholic and love being able to celebrate Mass in a historic place. There's an old bat in a mantilla that thinks she owns the place but if you ignore her delusions of ownership then it's a great place.

If you are in Las Cruces, the Mesilla Plaza is worth a stop. You can find a delicious meal here, learn a bit of Southwestern history and find some well priced souvenirs. A lovely place to take a stroll.

This was the site of the original courthouse where Billy the Kid was tried. It still has the old roofing (obviously covered by a 2nd roof). The 2 ladies were very helpful in answering our questions, and we bought a great Billy the Kid book! They safe distanced and wore masks :-)
8. El Patio Cantina

Reviewed By MississaugaONT - Mississauga, Canada
I had this on my TO DO LIST for a long time and finally made it to the "Oldest Bar in New Mexico". This place certainly has the ambience of an old historic and local establishment popular with a huge spectrum of the world. A warm and friendly greeting from the convivial, informative and lovely Miss Stephanie who, in addition to being a marvelous host and server, also saved me several hundred dollars by telling me that smoking cigars anywhere in the Old Town Square outside would probably get me arrested!!!! She was a font of local knowledge and I only wish I had had more time to pass in EL PATIO and to explore the local area.
