Step inside history at the Billy the Kid Gift Shop, located in one of the most storied adobe buildings on the Mesilla plaza. With original 18-inch mud brick walls, exposed vigas and latillas, and tales that stretch back to the Civil War era, this building once served as a courthouse and jail where ...Billy the Kid was tried and sentenced. Today, it offers one of the area’s most complete gift shops, along with a stop for coffee at Wild West Express-o or a sweet treat from Old Town Fudge, all under one historic roof.

We are the epitome of small town charm at its finest, serving as a great location for afternoon shopping and dining, where award winning cafes and restaurants and unique stores surround the town’s focal point of the historic Plaza.
Rich in history, culture and heritage, this little Town is far from quaint. Art galleries, entertaining events, rich history, unique shops and delicious cuisine are just a few staples that Old Mesilla has to offer.
