la bandera
Alyssa D.

So far i've been here twice and both times the drinks have knocked me off my feet! I'm completely in love with Bella, where ya been loca?, a white chocolate latte, off of the themed twilight menu and it breaks my heart it's not permanent!! La bandera is a delicious cinnamon cherry matcha. The other Employees are so nice and helpful. Seems like a great place to sit down and study and they even have a small second story area too! The large is a giant deli cup that you get a discount on your next drink if you bring it back! Can't wait to try more :)

Cold brew and maple pecan Scone
Lydia D.

First time in, loved the vibes and the offerings! I got a maple pecan scone and a cold brew and they were very gracious when I took the wrong drink on accident. My friend got a matcha, not realizing the bucket serving size, but said it was delicious! I will definitely be back to try more!

The coffee, staff, and food are all am here. I went in early Tuesday morning and they had some amazing drink choices. I ordered the Cafe Tubac and it was so tasty along with the cherry lime muffin, keep those on the menu please so good. They use Decibel coffee and they are one of my favs. I will definitely be back for more morning goodness.

Nice cafe! I like that it's on a corner and on 4th Ave. You can find street parking. It's fairly large inside and there were plenty of seats. The staff was friendly. We came for their Nacho Libre themed treats. The lattes and pastries were good. However, what was advertised on Instagram was not the same in person. I'm pretty disappointed with that. I looked forward to the pretty fun corn husk aesthetic but got a giant bucket cup thing instead. Fun but now I know for next time they do something themed.

Strawberry matcha
Tzu-En L.

I am so happy this spot has opened. Came here twice now and I am satisfied. The bakery is very spacious and clean. There are a lot of tables for studying and the vibe here is very chill. I have gotten matcha scone, Ube scone, and matcha chocolate muffin, which are all well done. They don't over sugar their pastry and everything tastes very freshly done with fluffiness. I tried their most recent raspberry and chocolate croissant and it is very good I have also tried their breakfast sandwich and omgggggggggggg. It is one of my fav in Tucson. As you can see in my picture, it is big and will def fill you up. The egg is made well and creamy texture. The whole sandwich tastes very fresh without any chemicals, which is why I gave this spot a 5 star. I value freshness without much additives and preservatives and I feel this bakery made everything fresh and yummy. I tried their strawberry matcha and latte. Both taste very good. Their service is great and friendly. I highly recommend this spot to anyone.

Absolutely love this place. It was recommended by someone who is a true Tucsonan and I always trust her when it comes to Tucson recs. The place is very spacious, nice counter facing the street with outlet! The staff was soooooooo friendly and very welcoming. And also I love that they open til 7pm, which is kind of rare for a bakery. I had an almond croissant and it was delicious! Definitely adding this to the list of my fav bakeries in Tucson!

Cinnamon Roll
Rey F.

I came across this spot online and based on the pictures, I decided to make the drive last weekend to try their coffee and a pastry. Unfortunately, I didn't end up trying the coffee. It's a really cool and chill spot. A lot of seating, the staff seemed nice, and all the pastries looked amazing. However, there wasn't a menu displayed on the wall or a physical menu to look at while ordering. The staff mentioned that they have pretty much every syrup available but I personally needed a menu to help me decide what to get. I ended up grabbing a cinnamon roll to go. It was huge and really good. I think this place will be great. I can definitely see it being a good spot to study, work, or read at. I hope to come back in the future and try it again sometime.

Behind the scenes of a Haus of Mac's workshop at 1989
Allison D.

I had never been to 1989 Bakehouse before today. As someone from the Midwest I have high expectations for customer service. The staff at 1989 is incredible. Their knowledge of the menu, patience for customers, and overall hospitality was like anything I've seen before. I was there for the Haus of Macs workshop filming content. As a non coffee drinker I was pleased with my The Haus Latte a raspberry cheesecake latte I will be back soon to try a cinnamon roll.

Blueberry lemon scone
Alex A.

My sister and I went here for breakfast. All of the employees were so friendly, polite, and helpful. The food was delicious and the coffee is some of the best I've had in Tucson. I also loved that they played music, but not too loud. This could be a great place to hang out if you have work to do. I'll definitely be returning!

Miriamn L.

I came to the grand opening of 1989 bake house bc I've always been a fan of their cookies and pastries since discovering them at farmers markets! I'm so happy they now opened a location. The vibes are everything. They have an upper level where they display art of local artist. So much room to sit and hand out I honestly see myself hanging out working remotely here. The pastries are delicious and love they offer GF scones. I'll definitely be back! 10/10 recommend

Went there in the evening to get some pastries for a late evening sugar craving. The space is larger than it looks from the outside with ample seating. It was bright and had fun pop of pink seats. Service was welcoming and friendly. The pastries were okay but a bit drier than expected ( they mentioned several times that everything is baked freshly daily). I love me a kouign-amann... especially the sugar in the middle of a caramelized crust... but this was not it. Barely had the buttery caramelized crust and I could barely taste any sugar folded it. The cruffin was okay but a bit on the dry end. The coffee cake was good and I particularly liked the frosting. They do make in- house syrups and the vanilla latte I got was decent. Parking can be challenging as there are limited street parking spots and if available, you do pay... but luckily Tucson's parking rates are very reasonable.

July Monthly sandwich special
Caylynn G.

Finally got to try the big cinnamon roll and large drink cups that I kept hearing about this place! There is an iced latte menu that you can order from and your drink comes in a big to go container and if you bring it back for your next visit, you'll receive 5% off! I chose to try the La Rosa which satisfied the matcha horchata craving I've been having, creamy and refreshing! I also tried the tofu avocado toast since I haven't tried anything like that before and it was pretty good - I like that they used tajin from another favorite local business Dirty T Tamarindo! Bought the Sonoran Oink sandwich to go for my husband and he said he really enjoyed it as well, highlighting the milky buns that were used. The inside is surprisingly big with plenty of seats but parking seems like it could be difficult since it's mainly street parking and you have to make sure to avoid the permit only areas - I found parking pretty easily on a Friday morning though. Staff was also super friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to bring my cup back and try a different drink!

S'mores scone

Super cute coffee shop! Love the decor inside. I got a banana bread latte which did taste like banana bread but their espresso is not my favorite because I felt it was a bit acidic. Their lattes come with 4 shots of espresso and are massive and well worth the price ~$9. I got a s'mores scone which was massive and delicious! My friend got a matcha which she also loved!

Bottom of my cookie is sweetly coated with BELGIAN CHOCOLATE!! I swear the cookie is BIG but I couldn't get the full picture.

Cafe A La C'art is a slightly hidden, off the main track restaurant attached to the Tucson Museum…read moreof Art. It is an amazing pastry location and a great lunch location. We have been coming here for over ten years, either as a couple or when my work has events. They can be a little pricy, but it is an amazing location with charm. There is interior and outside seating. You order at the counter with menus provided to review. You WILL be tempted by the pastries. It is mostly sandwiches and salads...and pastry. The drinks are soft drinks, teas and limited alcohol. Food is always well presented, and they do accommodate changes. Staff are friendly but also busy. Did I mention the charm, the adobe rooms have tables and the decor bring the experience together. It can be loud at times, but not overwhelming. Definitely visit, especially if doing the courthouse tour, the Presidio or Old Town shops, other hidden downtown gems.

I love the art on the walls so much and glad I came around 9am ish in the summer when it's less…read morecrowded so I can easily walk around and look at all the art pieces. Lots of nature themed paintings and photographs. I also really like their patio. I had the smoked beet sandwich and replaced the goat cheese with extra pumpkin seed-pistachio- sesame spread to make it vegan. It comes with seasoned fries/ green salad with herb vinaigrette/ or today's side a vegan potato salad. I chose the green salad with herb vinaigrette and really appreciated it had some pumpkin seeds too. They also gave me a sample of the potato salad but I liked the other food I had better. My understanding is that they use frozen potatoes for the fries vs fresh ones but season them with a seasoning mix. The pumpkin seed-pistachio- sesame spread in the sandwich was called "tahini" on the menu but it seems like it was sesame seeds in it not ground tahini paste. The sandwich was really yummy and great for summer. Ordering the first round is at the bar counter but once you are seated after your first order you can order more from the staff. I hear that there is a line to order at the more popular times but there was not a line when I was there. They had lots of great looking baked good. One was vegan and gluten free. Great place to have food at while visiting the Tucson Museum of Art. They share a small free parking lot. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

Right before leaving Tucson, I made a pit stop at Barista Del Barrio on a Thursday afternoon, a few…read moreminutes before close. Only open for breakfast, this little coffee shop packs in a lot of charm. I parked in the small lot in front. Ambiance (5/5): Definitely charming. It's a grab-and-go place for some, but for those that stay, there's a decent amount of seating outside. You're surrounded by a nice garden area, so it makes for a nice place to enjoy your beverage or some food. As long as the weather cooperates. Service (5/5): You place your order at the counter and they give you a buzzer. The lady working the counter was super friendly. A bright smile goes a long way. She was lovely. Drinks (5/5): While I'm not a coffee drinker, I'm a big fan of lemonade. They have a berry lemonade that has berries in it (blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries). Good size and it was very refreshing. One of the best lemonades I've had in quite some time. Food (4/5): Barista is known for its breakfast burritos and I love a good breakfast burrito. You'll find your usual ingredients here for the most part e.g. chorizo, egg, potato, bacon, ham, etc. Which I could have easily done. Instead, I decided to roll the dice and get my burrito with macheca. Which is a dried out Sonoran beef jerky of sorts. Heavily spiced. With a bit of a kick. I had never had it, and I must say, I'm not a huge fan. The lady who took my order complicated this gringo on my selection, but too strong of a taste for me. I'm sure I would've enjoyed one of the other proteins more. With that being said, it's a good portion (essentially two burros) and it was grilled nicely. It made for a filling, and satisfying, breakfast on the road.
