The crust is very different but it’s not heavy it has good flavor flaky and is perfect it’s not burned it’s just perfect. The flavors of the tomato sauce it’s not acidic it’s not sweet it’s just perfect. The garlic butter strong flavors but not overwhelming at all. The meat pizza very tasty the flavors are there the combination of meats helps it to not be heavy yet you know you’re eating a meat pizza. As for the goat cheese with the mushrooms and other vegetables the combination is unique the goat cheese is not overwhelming yet it cleanses your palate which is nice overall it’s a good pizza. The arcade it takes you back to the childhood.

Wow! Love the pizza at Holmes! My husband is very picky about his pizza, and this place really gets high marks for its pizza!
The service was incredible and very friendly! Clean atmosphere, Covid protocols in place. Take out is available! Indoor dining is currently happening!
The pinball arcade looks so inviting! Can’t wait to visit when it is open! Come on Albuquerque… Let’s go green!
The salad was fresh and crisp and the dressing is fresh made!
The pizza options were really well planned, and it was easy to meet my special needs diet!
Going to return to try more of the great offerings. Beer was available. And more options are coming soon!
Way to go, Sasha, Brittany, and Sebastian!

Wow! I had heard good things about this place and was pleasantly surprised. Great pizza, great crust, great people! The arcade looks wonderful, lots of vintage pinballs and upright videos. Can’t wait until they can let us play!

A vegan friend recommended this pizza spot! They ordered a vegan veggie pizza and I ordered the non-vegan mushroom pizza. Both were served gooey, hot, and crispy. The arcade games add to the exciting downtown vibe.

I ordered one of the many vegan friendly options, as many of their pizza can be made vegan. Specifically, I ordered the shroom pizza and added the vegan pepperoni. I give it 5 stars for the delicious topping, sauce was great, and the crust was thin and crispy, with just enough char on it for that brick oven style flavor. Well be purchasing again soon.

Only a 3m (0.2 mile) walk from the Amtrak Albuquerque Train Station. Rapid service (staff was super accommodating/sweet when I told them I had a train to catch). Got to enjoy a game of Galaga in their arcade while I waited (they had a lotta classics!). Food was delicious – I got a custom calzone with cheese, pepperoni, and green peppers.

Another pizza spot downtown and I can say they are pretty good, I took one to go. I think I might have to eat at the rest of the shops in and around Downtown to figure out who has the best slices. We shall see

So let me start off saying I love Holmes. They have some of the best pizza in town and so many vegan options. But the staff certainly could use some work. Last night first of all one of our pizzas I am pretty sure they forgot to make until we asked (along with the paid sides of vegan ranch) and didn’t even apologize. They said “it’s in the works” or something to that effect. Secondly I went to pay my tab (double checked my receipt) and ordered two more Lavender Ciders. I went back to the counter to tell them (and apologized) I think they poured me the wrong drink. After arguing with me and literally telling me I need to be more careful ordering because the ciders are expensive (I checked my tab, 3 ciders and 1 Cereveza). After that they still poured me another non lavender cider I’m pretty sure out of spite. I’ve never felt so insulted when I was politely asking for what I ordered – especially after just dropping almost $100 at our table. Holmes do better. Your customers are your lifeline and if something is wrong fix it without attitude. Maybe quit hiring rude hipster kids that think the world revolves around them? Just sayin…

The pinball machines were awesome! I can’t say as much for the pizza place I had, but I would give them another chance.

Very cool atmosphere with tons of classic and modern games, pinball machines galore and delicious, cold beer and hot pizza from a spotlessly clean kitchen. This place should be a fixture in Downtown Albuquerque for years and years.
