Great little restaurant in a strip mall. Service was friendly and attentive and overall atmosphere was what you'd want from a local neighborhood diner. The portions were generous and delicious. Ordered the chicken fried steak which was huge if a little on the dry side but the gravy more than made up for it as did the biscuit. read more

This place scores high on safety measures and protocols for dine-in service. I felt very comfortable eating my lunch here. This place is truly a hidden gem. I am so glad that their doors are still open for business. It's not well known about Mexican food themed breakfasts. I loved the Chili Rellenos, they where divine!!!!!! Another small restaurant that is welcoming owned by a nice family. Would highly recommend the trip to this modest breakfast restaurant. You will not leave hungry! read more

I loved what's I ordered. I got the chiliquiles and they were delicious. However my husband got a fish plate which came with two size and they didn't remember to bring us one of the sides. But honestly that's really minor. Another thing is that they brought a super hard roll out with the fish meal read more

Very good. Very inexpensive! We were passing through very early in the morning and stopped for coffee and breakfast. Plenty of food for a very reasonable price! If they were in the town we live in, it would be a regular breakfast place for us. Good job!! read more

Great food. Great service. Great and prices. We stopped in at 10am and got the last table. After we sat, more people kept coming but waited outside You know a place has to be good when people will stand outside and wait for a table. We usually have omelets and hash browns, they are always great. The hash browns are always golden and crispy on the outside and soft/fluffy inside. This last time I had the country fried steak. It was OK - more breading that I'd like. Coffee is also a little weak. The staff is always friendly and the food is served quickly. read more

This place is a hole in the wall but don't let that deter you. The food was really good! The portions are a good size for the money and the staff was really friendly. I would definitely go back! read more

This breakfast was amazing! Everything we had was great. Everything we saw looked amazing. The service was fast and really friendly throughout the busy Sunday morning service. There was a wait, but it went by quickly. We'll defiantly go back next time we're in town! read more

Friendly people and the food was delicious, more for your money. The food price was affordable.

super friendly and welcoming! food was great, waffles were amazing. would come again.

Although this 60s style cafe was two miles off the 10 freeway it was well worth it. I really like places like this and anticipated a great meal. We each had chicken fried steak with a spicy white gravy read more

Cute cafe off Prince Rd. A huge burrito almost as big as my forearm and I'm a thick girl lol. One of if not the best breakfast burrito in Tucson. I chose egg sausage and bacon for my fillings. Staff if very welcoming !! I can't wait to try other items on the menu read more

My son and I went here for breakfast. We will definitely be back. My favorite is steak and eggs. My steak was the best I have had in Tucson. It was tender and a large piece to boot. My son enjoyed his eggs hash browns and biscuits and gravy. Can't wait to go back. Most reasonably priced place we have been. read more

I really wanted to love this place. The reviews and pictures looked promising. Here's the good. The server and staff was very friendly. The menu was reasonably priced. The experience fell flat for me on the food. I had the chicken fried steak. It was huge! However that was because the steak was pounded out so thin that to me seemed unnecessary. The breading was crisp and cooked well but bland. I could not detect much flavor in the breading so I was a little let down. The gravy was the bigger disappointment for me. It was thin, and not very flavorful even though there was a lot of pepper. Also the coffee - which IMO should be great was weak. 30+ years ago I can understand having so so coffee, but with Starbucks around every corner there's no excuse for bad coffee when you're charging $3.00 plus for a cup. If McDonald's can do a great cup for a buck, there's no reason you can't have a decent pot of coffee. It's not the worst place. It was clean, friendly and fast service. That goes a long way and people can overlook a lot. If I was having eggs & bacon I'm sure it's fine. I'd recommend perfecting that gravy and using either a better cut of beef or not pounding it out so thin. read more

Cappy's Breakfast Cafe - Veggie omelette with no mushrooms and tomatoes with grits and potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

We were directed to a table that had food on the seat. After asking for a clean table, we were directed to a second table with food on the seat, which I had to wipe off. The messes on the floor and baby seats, and shabby door to the bathroom did not help our concerns about the state of the kitchen. The food was ok. read more

So the prices are pretty decent. My omelette was spinach, mushroom and Swiss cheese. It had zero... I mean zeroooooo seasoning. It was also over cooked so it was super thick and dry. It came with biscuits and gravy. The actual biscuit was good but the gravy had so much pepper in it. It's like they over seasoned the gravy because the forgot the omelette The kids said the waffle, pancakes and French toast were good. My other son said that the French toasts weren't as good as mine ‍ I don't think I'll be back. read more

Best breakfast I've had in a long time. Eggs were cooked to perfection. The bacon was just as I like it. Very crispy and delicious. Staff is friendly. Very simple cafe but meets all of my needs for a hearty breakfast. read more

Service is friendly and fast. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. It's a neighborhood place often overlooked.

This is a treasure in Tucson. Not even kidding. It's a small joint that packs a punch with food. The prices are great and honestly I'd pay even more. The service is wonderful. Our servers were attentive and always on hand for whatever we needed. Love it. Will be coming back for sure ! read more

Stopped in here on my way out of town with a friend and we couldn't have been happier. The chicken fried steak was crispy to almost teeth shattering levels I loved it. The severs were all so sweet and nice especially for it being a crowded Saturday. The blueberry pancakes were exactly what you want. Loaded with blueberries and wonderfully fluffy pancakes. Poached eggs to perfection and their biscuits are criminally underrated I'd be letting folks know as soon as the walk in the door these are the softest, flakiest biscuits in town and they are perfect with gravy, or their just a little jam and butter read more

Nice little family run breakfast place! Food is what you'd expect - service was lovely. Omelets were very good. Definitely a neighborhood place - well loved and authentically friendly. read more

Excellent food, portions and service! Accommodated substitutions with a smile. Will be back!

Great family owned place with hearty portions and low prices. I love the turkey omelette. Usually busy, so be patient.

Good food but you need to be Patient, it could be a little bit of a wait to get your food.Only one person was working

The food was ultra great. The place was packed, not a single table after we sat down. Service was A++. Very friendly hardworking staff. We will be going back again and again. read more

Needed breakfast on our first morning in Tucson and this place was close to our hotel. Got seated fast and ordered drinks. I chose to get the ham and scrambled eggs and Bobbie the chorizo and eggs. My ham and egg scramble had lots of cubed ham and perfectly scrambled eggs. A lot of places will over cook the eggs making them hard but the cook knows how to make scrambled eggs. They were soft and yummy and the ham had a good flavor. I got it with hash browns and an english muffin. The hash browns had a nice crunchy exterior with soft interior and the muffin was very well toasted. Bobbies chorizo had great flavor with good scrambled eggs mixed in. It had a good mix of eggs to chorizo and not mostly eggs. She got corn tortillas with it and hash browns again done right. Over all this was a good breakfast in a small homestyle place. read more

My family and I used to eat at Cappy's and ate there quite a few times At least 6 times a month, then we noticed that the service seemed to slack off. Last month we went there twice. We think that the daughters have taken over because Connie doesn't even say hello anymore unless we make it a point on our part. We waited for about 10 minutes before we were noticed then we got served. Don't get me wrong the food is still good. Last time over a week ago we waited and waited for serviceand were ignored. Before I lost my temper we walked out. We are in our 80s and very quite. Sorry about this . read more

The service was great, the young lady who sat us down was so sweet.. The food mind you was amazing I had the spinach, veggie omelette..yummy and the coffee is just superb!!! We came from Buckeye AZ to discover new places to eat and we will definitely be back read more

This is a "Mom & Pop" place in a strip mall, a local dive which makes it that much better! We were visiting Tucson and looking for a place to grab some breakfast. We visited on a Holiday weekend during COVID, so we figured we'd have to wait. We only waited 10-15 minutes, and were seated socially distanced. The staff was extremely pleasant and very attentive. The food was fantastic and the portions were huge! We will definitely visit again the next time we're in town! read more

I have three words for you: chicken fried steak. The other day on Facebook I was reading an article about 35 great breakfast places in Tucson and my eyes were drawn to Cappy's because of the giant chicken fried steak. "It's too good to share and impossible to finish", someone said. Oh really? Challenge accepted, I thought. We headed off to breakfast this morning, and perhaps if I had worn my "Thanksgiving pants" (remember when Joey steals Rachel's maternity jeans in "Friends" so he can pig out on turkey?) there might have been a different end result. DH opted for the breakfast quesadilla and loved the green chilies in the eggs. Good job, Cappy's! This was the biggest chicken fried steak I'd ever seen in real life. It came out (to quote Yzma from "The Emperor's New Groove", deep fried and covered in gravy. And I got eggs and toast, too. I managed about three quarters of this monstrosity before I realized that there was no way I'd be able to finish. I wanted to. I really, really did. I now know how Adam Richman felt on Man Vs. Food when he would do some crazy challenge or other. It was glorious. I did the best I could, and I have no regrets. read more

Come hungry! Chicken Fried Steak, scrambled eggs with cheese and biscuits & gravy. So GOOD! Huge serving, could only eat 2/3rds. The chicken fried steak is homemade, not the usual frozen offering - very good. Wonderfully light and fresh biscuits, smothered in a delicious sausage gravy. The gravy is done correctly, with no flour taste so often encountered when the gravy is not properly made with care to cook out the flour taste. Good coffee, and wonderful service from the owner and her staff. Well done! read more
