Perhaps an iconic Santa Fe pairing, the inspirational art, story, and legacy of Georgia O’Keeffe followed by a lively and vibrant communal lunch at The Shed. Polly and Thornton Carswell opened the Shed in 1953 on Burro Alley, then in 1960 they moved the restaurant to its current location, Prince Patio. The Shed tradition continues with the Carswell family, now in it's third generation. Our chile comes directly from the farm to guarantee freshness. This will be an experience where we will coordinate your Georgia O’Keeffe Museum Tickets in advance and let you know our exact reservation time is once we wait in the very long line.

Juxtaposed against our culinary options are well curated and incredible shops of transplanted makers, a chocolatier that rivals those found in Europe and little jewel boxes to explore and shop.
