Truth or Consequences is a small city in New Mexico featuring natural hot springs. There are also plenty of opportunities for recreational activities in the area. We spent a night there in order to enjoy the hot springs, but also had plenty of time to explore the city.

 

Desert View Inn

We stayed at the Desert View Inn, which is a short drive from downtown Truth or Consequences and very reasonably priced. It has clean comfortable rooms and a very friendly owner. We enjoyed our one night there and would be happy to stay there again.

 

The Brazen Fox (Permanently Closed)

Our first meal was at a small taqueria, the Brazen Fox. They had a good selection of tacos that were pretty good.

Passion Pie

We stopped for a coffee and piece of pie at Passion Pie. Both were excellent and we were happy we stumbled upon the place. Sorry I don’t have a better picture!

Johnny B’s

For dinner, we headed north of town to Johnny B’s. It’s a sports themed restaurant serving Mexican and American food. They have great sandwiches as well as a big breakfast menu. I had a huge combination plate that included two enchiladas, a chile relleno, a taco, and a tamale, served with rice and beans. I went back to the hotel full and happy.

El Faro

For breakfast the next morning, we stopped at El Faro for breakfast. I had an omelet served with refried beans. They have an all-day breakfast menu as well as traditional Mexican and American specialties. I’d like to have the chance to go back and try some of their other dishes.
