Was working for 2 days in Columbus this week, and for lunch this place caught our eye. Great food, excellent environment, and fantastic service and staff! We came for dinner after work as well and we had their pizza. All of their food is good, but the pizza is a must! The owners are also super friendly and welcoming, and this experience was so great, will be coming back with a friend from Belize to experience. (We got here close to closing so I only got these pics)

The Borderland Cafe has really good vibes. The atmosphere is nice. The workers are friendly. And the food is good. Anytime I'm in Columbus, I usually eat there. :)

We come to Borderland Cafe quite regularly from Deming (30 minutes away) as it is one of our favorite lunch spots. Today was our first visit since they remodeled and updated the menu. We are happy to say the food is still great, and the interior even better. Great food, great service, and a great small town New Mexico atmosphere. Definitely stop by when passing through or when you feel like taking a drive from Deming or Rockhound SP.

Fast Great Food !! Had the Bacon cheese Burger with Mennonite cheese and green chili on my fries. It was almost like a Chico's tacos, but with green chili sauce, and it was delicious. Green chili was spicy but not overbearing. The mennontie cheese was fire!! Overall, five-star!! Come check them out!!

Middle of no where pit stop that would put most places in El Paso to shame. Odd mix on the menu for sure but the flavor is there. So so good and worth making it a part of your drive not just a pit stop.

Great little stop in a cool town. The people here were so nice. Their power had gone off but they still made me chicken strips and fries. Please stop in when passing through.
