50 Best Coffee Shops in Tucson

“still has the vibe of the former Epic Cafe but with a refreshed menu and look.“

“Today I walked into the cafe for the first time, Ive never heard of it and a friend recommended it to me and the service was amazing I thought Serra was the General Manager, great atmosphere and amazing food and drinks ! Thank you Serra For such a lovely first time ! Cant wait to come back again !!“

“Love this coffee spot! What a beautiful little place to grab a cup of coffee - wonderful energy, easy-feeling on a Saturday morning. Rene and Tyler are both so friendly and good energy. I had an Americano with oat milk, husband had Decaf Mocha Latte — both were delicious. We’re going back again tomorrow morning - early so we can hangout there a bit. Highly recommend.“

“The place is really nice and clean and the food is great. The service was meh, the girl at the register straight up lied to me and said they dont make coffee/latte, but when i left, i saw someone get up to get their iced latte..? Idk why she would lie to me and make it for othet people?“

“I’ve lived in Tucson for a few years now, and every time I have visitors I try to bring them here. First off, the space is whimsical and inviting, with fluffy clouds hanging above and an earthy green-blue all around. The display case of truffles, pastries, and ice cream is like something out of a movie. The chocolate itself is complex and balanced. The packaging itself is art. I particularly enjoy the mesquite white chocolate, the hot chocolate, and any of their truffles. They also have a lovely market stocked with local goods and gifts. The last time I was in there, the person at the counter offered recommendations, asked about my favorite flavors, smiled, waited patiently while I took forever to make my selections, and offered samples! The closest thing to perfect customer service (and genuine kindness) you’ll find.

I find myself having to comment on pricing too often in reviews, mostly in response to others’ low reviews based solely on pricing. To be blunt, costs are high because of failed international economic policy first and foremost. If you’re reading this and cost (as opposed to quality, flavor, experience, or anything else) is of utmost concern to you when deciding where to buy chocolate (or any food, for that matter), this might not be the place for you. If you’re willing and able to spend your money on local, quality goods that go the extra mile (and support our local economy) this spot won’t disappoint!“

“Honestly, this place has some of the best quality coffee I have ever had. I’m an avid coffee drinker and have tried coffee all over and make my own at home. It’s such a treat to get a 24oz from Coffee Times Drive-Thru. If you haven’t been here before I absolutely recommend it. Plus the staff is always super friendly. I’m glad they are still in business and survived the pandemic. I hope they stay in business for years to come. Thank you so much Coffee Times for the opportunity to support a wonderful local coffee shop!“

“Excellent coffee shop for a casual coffee lover or the connoisseur. I always love coming in to see Alec working. He never disappoints with his coffee, conversation, and kind demeanor.

“Our daughter and her new hubby got married 2.5 weeks ago. Neither likes cake, so they did not want a wedding cake at the reception. Instead, they decided to go with a macaron tower, but where to get it made? We discovered that Woops and the wonderful Ellie could produce such a masterpiece. The tower and additional platters on the side were the highlight of the dessert table. Not only was it stunning, unique and delicious, but it was also a striking centerpiece! Our guests marveled! Thank you, Ellie, for added to the celebration in such an impressive manner. Can’t wait to call on you again for our next event. You’re an artist!“

Secret for out of towners: in the shoulder seasons, sitting outside in the breeze is heavenly, especially when the not uncommon mournful rumble of the freight trains wafts over the air from the tracks.“

“There are so many great reasons I love living at The Flin - the location, the staff, the elegance. This Flin is wonderful for people with pets, with a convenient dog park and plenty of places to take a walk right outside the community the doors. The features that stand out to me in the apartment are the full size washer & dryer, stainless steel appliances, the neutral flooring, and big windows. I enjoy living here and it’s a fantastic addition to downtown.“

“the workers there are very pleasant and very nice they don't rush you they talk to you.“

“Great place to grab a drink, lots of variety hot and cold drinks. They also have a neat bar in the back lounge area. Hookah is best in town in my opinion. Vibe is chill, always a good time.“

“Sometimes when you walk into a new coffee shop, you can just tell they’re not only going to make they’re going to thrive. Hazel Coffee is that kind of place. The shop was busy, but in the best way..full of energy and happy customers. Despite a fair amount of customers, I got my latte quickly and easily found a cozy spot to sit with my laptop. Great vibe, great coffee. I’ll definitely be back.“

“It’s wonderful to see people really own a craft and be passionate about it. These Baristas really make sure you have the best cup of coffee possible while you are in their care. 👍🙏😁“
