New to Albuquerque, Santa Fe Brewery Co. has made its home at Green Jeans Farmery. You can stay and have a beer or two, or take a growler or six-pack to go. With a choice of over 25 beers on tap and the option to bring food in from other establishments, it’s hard to leave this beautiful building.

Bosque has expanded its robust brew selection to a taproom in the Nob Hill/University area. This location offers food and a sunny patio. The happy hour menu is a must, and the sandwiches are pretty great all around, especially the caprese and the Italian. (Alibi Staff, August 5, 2015)  Gecko’s Bar & TapasMon-Fri 11:30-2 am

Gecko’s has a killer patio in a corner of Nob Hill that’s perfect for people-watching. Set directly between La Montañita Co-op and Scalo, you’ll be sure to bump into folks you know as you’re sipping a cocktail and enjoying tidbits from the affordably priced tapas menu. On Mondays the wings are 50 cents each and Wednesday after 6pm you can get a cheeseburger for $5.50. Watch some sports, eat a burger and enjoy a seasonal ale.

Il Vicino’s thin-crusted, gourmet-topped pizzas are perennial favorites among Alibi readers, but the big salads are equally popular. Order at the register, and a server brings the food to your table, making weekday lunches speedy. The open kitchen gives you something to stare at while you wait. Stop in for a quick lunch or a late afternoon microbrew at one of the sidewalk tables. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)  Nob Hill Bar & GrillSun-Mon: 11am-9pm

If you like your comfort food with a gourmet twist, it’s here. Nob Hill Bar & Grill boasts meatloaf (crowned with smoked bacon) and burgers (American kobe). The appetizers and classic cocktails alone are worth the visit. Cheese sticks encrusted in nuts and miso-seared ahi tuna on wontons go down swimmingly (did we mention the saltwater aquarium?) with a signature cocktail or an organic ale. A few vegetarian entrées, decent hours, a full bar and comfy but chic atmosphere make Nob Hill Bar & Grill a solid addition to the neighborhood. Catch up over Mimosas, the official brunch drink.

Tractor draws the crowd by serving beer that’s come a long way since head brewer Dave Hargis took over. Today’s Tractor offers up nine taps, with five constants (IPA, red, honey wheat, pale ale and stout) and four rotating taps. The doppelbock is excellent, and Tractor seems to excel at the bock styles. (It took first place at the 2011 Santa Fe’s BockFest.) There is no kitchen, but Albuquerque’s best food trucks are almost always parked right outside. (Alibi Staff, September 29, 2011)  Zinc Wine Bar & BistroBrunch:

Zinc is a delightfully renovated historic space in Nob Hill, reborn as an upscale restaurant serving elegant American food with noticeable French inspiration. Downstairs, the wine bar attracts a younger crowd for drinks, music and daily specials including the $9 beer, brat and pretzel every Thursday. The happy hour menu, wines by the glass and prices are the best around. Give the brunch a try, and while you’re at it, try a Taos Mule from the bar.

O'Niell's is comforting, a little cheeky and unapologetically Irish-American. The Juan Tabo location offers a gigantic patio and more floor space, but still features old favorites like the “Burger in Paradise” and fish and chips. And there’s plenty of live music at both locations. Build-your-own Mimosas make O’Niell’s a unique place to brunch.

 Backstreet GrillSunday - Thursday 11am-9pm, Friday and Saturday 11am-10pm (hours can change without notice) Full review: Taking in the breeze at Backstreet Grill (7/17/2014)
If you’re cruising through Old Town, look no further than this patio dining restaurant, pleasantly located beneath a spreading elm tree on the east side of Old Town. Fantastic hamburgers, Mexican pizzas and street tacos all await your jaded palate, and there’s plenty of local beer on tap to wash them down with. Finally, a new reason for locals to hit the plaza. (Alibi Staff, June 25, 2014) This is Chama River’s beer-centric younger brother. Naturally, plenty of Chama brews are on tap, but the lineup also features selections from other Albuquerque and Santa Fe breweries. Our favorite is the Scotia, a strong, sweet Scottish ale that’s perfect for sipping while you watch the Central traffic go by from the Draft Station’s patio.

Seasons’ rooftop patio is one of our favorite wine-drinking destinations, especially when it’s nice out. There are heaters up there for chilly nights, the courtyard fountain provides a calming gurgle, the view of the mountains is great, and the happy hour menu has outstanding dishes at more-than-reasonable prices. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) St. Clair Winery & BistroSun-Thurs: 11am-10pm
Fri-Sat: 11am-11pm (hours can change without notice)
New Mexico's largest winery, St. Clair Vineyards has branched out into the food service sector. The casual, reasonably priced eatery is located just to the northwest of the Sheraton Old Town off Rio Grande. Regular live jazz music, two patios and a spacious front specialty wine and gift shop bring wine festival flair to thirsty Burqueños year-round, while the menu is built around the Vineyard's signature wines.
