The Oracle Patio Cafe and Market

Sometimes, "specials" are not all that special. This was the case with the pork carnitas which (unfortunately) was just a bowl of greasy meat. Not edible. My husband should have sent it back to the kitchen. I had a bowl of their filet mignon chile which was very good! Our servers were attentive and friendly. Overall, we like this little out-of-the-way restaurant.

Sorry not conflicted at all about those stars. Stellar service provided by staff. Who are all friendly and attentive. So much to see and wonderful finds in the market. This donut is 🤤 and a lot closer than Vegas. So many other pastries too many too mention but all made in house sorry that's all that was left... 😉

Definitely worth traveling for🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 We absolutely loved it!! The quiche, pies and crème brûlée donuts are a MUST HAVE!!😁😋

Nice little spot. 👍

Gem of a spot!

Friendly service, specialty ingredients and outstanding pies! I will definitely stop back in if I’m coming through town!

Located in the hamlet of Oracle this is an addition to the market which is in front. Featuring both a fixed and rotating menu, it is very popular bringing in folks from both north and south. You may expect a wait during busy times. Service is prompt, but if busy you can expect another wait as the food is prepared to order. A great spot for a relaxing lunch away from the hustle and bustle of a more in-town location.

Don't judge this book by the cover, the food that comes out of here was unbelievable... really and we are very picky.. everything we had around the table was incredible and the market was great also

It was a nice surprise to find this cool little cafe had vegan options for us after our hike at Oracle State Park.

Wonderful little café and market near Biosphere 2. A couple of explicitly vegan options on the menu in several that can be Veganized on request. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. 

After visiting Biosphere 2, we drove to Oracle to find lunch. Stopped at The Oracle Patio Cafe. Great service and we had one of the best Reuben sandwiches we have ever had. Love finding local spots. Great bakery connected- couldn’t resist!! Don’t miss this favorite if you are in the area!!

I absolutely love the little market. The carrot and the coconut cakes are amazing. The homemade ice cream and now a deli in the back. You are a gift to the tri-communities. If you haven’t been you are messing up!!

We stopped here for 2 cups of coffee to go. After being sent from the market area to the patio area, we were sent back to the market area to get our to-go coffees. Yay, they eventually brought them out. I added 1 sugar and 1 creamer. I take a swig. It was barely luke warm water that I think they dipped a coffee bean in for less than 30 seconds. Seriously, it was the nastiest cup of coffee I have ever had.

It’s COFFEE! How do you screw that up? Well, they managed. Had we not driven away before tasting I would have brought it back. BUT, I guarantee I will never return.

Excellent eclectic little café. Servers were attentive and the heated patio seating was great on a dreary December day. Try the grinder!

This is a very nice patio to sit and enjoy lunch. A couple of vegan options, and one vegan/GF coconut cake. The staff is all so friendly, and they are very dog friendly, plus have a kitty who moved in a year ago and owns the place.
