Reach New Heights: (@ Presta Coffee Roasters)
Mercedes C.

The wonderful thing about coming to Mercado San Agustin in Tucson is that it's contained- but in a relaxing way. This outdoor market is small enough that you can cover the whole place and make a day out of it. It features a nice mix of boutiques, artisan shops and cafes all nestled around a courtyard creating an inviting feel. My kid and I enjoyed a smoothie and fresh pressed juice on a gorgeous warm morning. Even if you aren't shopping, you can still grab a bite from one of the eateries, get a bench or chair and enjoy.

Cute place with shops and LGBTQ friendly environment. Decent food and drinks available.

Breakfast plate

Outside ambiance was bustling and fun. Enough seating. Had steak and eggs (the tomato jam was sublime), breakfast plate and breakfast sandwich. Drinks were fresh squeezed Mimosa and chai. You had to order at counter and service was slow. One of our gals was done eating by the time the other two got theirs.

Amazing and fun place to spend a Sunday in Tucson! Great food, local restaurants and shopping! A great place to remember how nice it is to support local. The food at San Augustine restaurant was amazing. We also got coffees at Presta and walked around! Everything was clean, well kept and all staff was nice! Would recommend this for a nice weekend out in Tucson!

Mercado San Agustin District: A Vibrant Community Oasis @mercadodistricttucson Mercado San Agustin is more than just a market; it's the heart of a thriving community. While the market itself boasts a delightful collection of local shops and eateries, such as @la_estrellabakery and @agustinkitchen, the true charm lies in the surrounding neighborhood. A World Away from Suburbia The architecture here is a refreshing departure from the typical American suburbs. Here, houses are built with local materials and designed to foster interaction. Forget sprawling lawns and car-centric living; the Mercado District encourages walking, meeting your neighbors in plazas, and enjoying a true sense of community. Award-Winning Design The neighborhood itself is a marvel of design. Moule & Polyzoides Architects (@moule_polyzoides) have crafted a space that seamlessly blends traditional aesthetics with modern functionality. With eight blocks, seven plazas, and a stop on the Tucson streetcar line, the Mercado District is both beautiful and conveniently accessible, reminiscent of San Miguel de Allende. Many of the homes are tucked closely together, with inner courtyards filled with fountains and plants, or rooftop patios for watching a sunset. A Breath of Fresh Air If you're looking for a place that celebrates community, sustainability, and local character, then Mercado San Agustin is a must-visit. It's a place where you can ditch the car, embrace the outdoors, and connect with the vibrant energy of Tucson. Down the street you will find the MSA Annex. A series of shops, cafes and eateries serving local goods, all houses within repurposed shipping containers.

Horchata & concha

Breakfast has never sounded more delicious than with a concha perfectly paired with horchata. It's the best flavor combination!

A must place to visit in AZ. Great shops and eating. We went back the second day and tried the breakfast tacos. Stop by Petroglyphs for fun artwork and Mexican themed decor.

A must visit in downtown Tuscon, the Mercado San Agustin is a small but mighty mercado around a small outdoor courtyard in the old section of town now called the "Mercado District" by smart local relators. A couple of the better restaurants in town (Sei's Kitchen) are located here with outdoor dining, one of the best Mexican bakeries (panaderia staple La Estrella), a couple terrific boutiques with antiques (La Cabana) and local wears and one of the best coffee houses in town. Don't miss it. Small but worthwhile.

For something out of the ordinary you should visit this outdoor/indoor market with food, coffee, shopping, and socializing opportunities. Everything is locally owned and operated so is a great opportunity to support the Tucson community. It is somewhat convenient with good parking and a couple great spots to eat a full meal or just top in for pastries and coffee.

Is it dog friendly?

Yes, lots of people have well behaved dogs there. I have seen metal water bowls out n a doggie drink fountain before; but that's not all the time.

Walk straight into the fruit and produce area and then I wind my way around usually picking up items. I didn't plan on buying like chocolate bars and popcorn. But the store often feels manageable and not overly crowded. The parking lot also is not as chaotic as the one on Oracle and ina. Fruit always looks pretty good as do the vegetables and avocados which I shop a lot for. They could really step their game up in the florals department. Then it would almost a one stop shop for me!

They still have the pizza take out bar with a variety of toppings. They have some items or brands you won't find in other places but may not have brands you get elsewhere. It's nice to discover some new things you haven't tried before. The bakery has some tempting things to look at. The store is large with wide enough aisles so you can browse easily. Prices are a little higher than other places but some things may be worth it. The parking is limited only because of all the other businesses in the area. I'll go back and look around again. I can usually find something I want to try.

I guess you have to be a little bit crazy to want to do customer service work and to do it well because the shoppers at the Wilmot location have been known to be grumpy, hung-over, rich people from the Sabino Canyon foothills area."

They add features, cute trade names, and try to develop cults around products to boost sales. While it's not a bad idea to boost sales, the basics have to be right. I have to choose this locale, where I went Wednesday, to moan about the severe hike in prices, short cycle of products, and the drift from doing the basics correctly. TJ used to march to a different drummer. House brands with quality for household staples, often with an international flavor and source. There is still a wide variety of decent international staples, but it's highly focused on cult products and flavorings. Prepackaged and ultra-processed foods are becoming standard(s). Protein is down, carbs are up. There's still a reasonable variety of veggies, fresh, but not in wide abundance. Certain common items, like walnuts, go missing for long periods of time, and other items become seasonable and their shelf space is unreliable. So while it's still good, there is now wade through the weeds of products that are edge-case. Hail Mary Marketing attempts. I bristle.
