Caffe Tazza

This cozy three-room cafe, with a summer patio, attracts local community groups, artists, performers, and poets. Plays, films, comedy, and musical performances are given here on weekends (and some weeknights in summer). You can read one of the assorted periodicals available (including the New York Times) while sipping a cappuccino or café Mexicano (espresso with steamed milk and Mexican chocolate), made from organic coffee beans. The food -- soups and sandwiches -- is quite good. Pastries, which are imported from many bakeries around the region, are almost as big a draw here as the Taos Cow ice cream. Choose from 15 flavors.
