I have purchased and eaten cookies from Rude Boy and until last Saturday I had never stepped foot in the shop. I'm so glad I actually had a chance to go there. I stopped in to pick up cookies for a ballet fundraiser and the young man working the counter was very kind, polite and professional. There was a gentleman who was there when I walked in. He may have just been a very eccentric old man with poor hygiene or he may have been a homeless person who came in with a request for I don't know what. Ray the counter guy was so kind and patient and respectful of him that if I had never stepped foot in the store before, what I witnessed that day would have set me in motion to make sure and tell every person I know to buy cookies at Rude Boy. He wasn't just going through the motions of good customer care, he was kind. I truly appreciate that in our world. Not only do they have delicious treats and an owner who is a philanthropist, the staff are good people. Acts like this make me want to shop local and make me proud to call Albuquerque my home. I will be in the store a whole lot more. The place is super clean, has great natural light and the decor is funky and fun. If you get the chance you should stop by and check out the cookies. They are all delicious but my favorites are double chocolate, red velvet and oatmeal butterscotch.

I love their cookies and the staff who work here. My step kids request a deconstructed ice cream sandwich when they are set to get a treat for something. Snickerdoodles are my favorite but the kids like the sugar cookies with the sprinkles. Can’t go wrong here.
