“My wife and I recently drove to Hatch, NM from Albuquerque to buy some red chili. We planned on getting lunch in Hatch. We asked a local for a recommendation. They happily suggested the Oepper Pot. We are glad they did! Amazing New Mexico style food, great service, perfect location, and friendly prices. We will return!”

“Love this spot! Came here on a work day trip to pick chilis in hatch and stopped by to have lunch. Wonderful service and the food is delicious. Plus the property is so cute! Will be back.”

“Incredibly kind and helpful staff and the food was all I wanted it to be. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!”

“First time eating at Pepper Pot. Loved it. We ordered the kids taco plate (1 taco, refried beans, rice), a ground beef burrito with a side of refried beans, and 2 carne asada & avocado burritos. All burritos had a side of their green chile sauce for semothering. Everything was wonderful.”
