"Rancho de Corrales," located in the center of Corrales is rumored to be haunted by ghosts. Functioning as a restaurant/bar for many years, it now only serves as a bar.

As a big part of Corrales history, the building has a distinctive look, complete with a tree growing through the roof of the patio area.
