Drinks & Nightlife
Here, they serve no food. So go to the Smith's Grocery Store or Rigoberto's next to Bathtub Row. This is by far the most social place in Los Alamos. Thursday nights seem to be the most crowded.

Essentials
This is sort of like a Super Walmart, but the food is better than Walmart. But if you need anything from a pair of sneakers to a bag of flour to balloons for a party, this is where you go. They actually have a bar in the grocery store.
