Small Business Saturday El Paso: How to Shop Small at Solana
Small Business Saturday El Paso shoppers can plan around lands on November 28 this year, the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Between Black Friday deals and online carts, it is easy to spend the whole weekend without meeting a single local owner. So here is a simple plan for doing it differently. You will find the market at The Shoppes at Solana, a short Westside route, and one way to back a local spot that costs nothing.
Small Business Saturday El Paso: The Date and Where to Start
The Small Business Saturday Market at The Shoppes at Solana
The Shoppes at Solana lists a Small Business Saturday Market for November 28, 2026. That gives you one place to start your shopping. However, we do not run the market, so we cannot speak to its vendors or times. Please check the center's official site for those details before you go.
Also, the U.S. Small Business Administration is a good source if you want the background on the day itself. The idea is simple enough. You pick a small business, you spend a little there, and you tell a friend. In short, the day works best when it starts with people you already know.

A Small Business Saturday El Paso Route on the Westside
You do not need a big plan. So try a simple loop, and let the day stay loose. Here is one way to do it:
- First, check the market details. Look up the times on the center's site before you leave home.
- Next, walk the market. Bring a short gift list, so you have a reason to stop and chat with vendors.
- Then, stop at our kiosk. We are at 750 Sunland Park Dr, Level 1, Kiosk K-12, in front of the White Horse Statue.
- Also, take a photo at the statue. It makes an easy post that tags the places you visited.
- Finally, leave one review. Do it before you forget, while the visit is still fresh.
Holiday hours can differ from our regular schedule, so check our social pages for our hours that weekend. While you are here, a 12 oz hot latte is $4.00, and a syrup adds $0.25. Our espresso comes from Puerto Rican beans, with a smooth body and chocolate and caramel notes. If you want to learn more about coffee, the Specialty Coffee Association is a great place to start.

When you buy from a local business, you are dealing with people who live and work here. Your order helps pay a local team, and those people spend money around town too. So we feel it directly at our own window, because every cup is a small vote to keep us here. We wrote more about this in our post on local shops over big chains.
Of course, nobody can buy everything locally, and we do not expect that. The goal is smaller. Pick one or two things on your list this year, then buy them from someone in El Paso instead of a website. That is plenty to make a difference to a small shop.

Not everyone has room in the budget this month, and that is fine. An honest review costs nothing, and it helps neighbors find local spots. Just search for the business on Google, choose the option to write a review, and say what you actually liked. Google's help pages explain how reviews work. Also, follow the business on social media and share a post with a friend.
A useful review is specific. So mention what you ordered, how long it took, and how you were treated. A sentence or two is enough. If you want a walk-through, we made a short guide on how to leave us a Google review.
What Locals Say About The Coffee Spot
When we read through our reviews, a few themes keep coming back. First, people mention how smooth the coffee is, which fits what Puerto Rican beans are known for. Next, they talk about speed at the window, which matters when you are between stores. Finally, they mention friendliness, and we are proud of that one. So if your visit matches those things, or if it does not, please tell us.
