Blackboard outside!

Stopped in this morning with a co-worker and had a peach, vanilla infusion. It was refreshing and a bit carbonated! Very good! I also had the breakfast burrito with sausage that was full of eggs and the perfect amount of sausage! This a great option if you're in Marana, and they have a great selection of baked goods and merch too!

Caffeine might explain why those little roadrunners are so fast. Needing to recharge after hiking at Catalina State Park, Emily and I dropped into Roadrunner Coffee to do just that. We got there around 9:30am and the place was busy. Their drive-thru was booming and while there was no line inside, over half the tables and seats were occupied. That gave me the good hope that this place has some great coffee. Emily and I both got the Jittery Javelina, which is a blend of caramel sauce and vanilla syrup. I don't typically get sweet coffee drinks but after so many Americanos, my taste buds needed the bitter break. We also got a chocolate croissant to go with it. We honestly stumbled through ordering, both Emily and I probably giving the barista a mild aneurism due to our tiredness and lacking caffeine. The barista took it all in stride and helped us get our order in. We took a seat by the front windows and our drinks and baked treat were ready in about 5 minutes. The jittery javelina was really good. I didn't notice too much of either the caramel or vanilla ingredients but that was okay because I downed my drink in just a few minutes. Emily and I split the croissant and we both felt it was good but not great with Em liking it more than me. I'm not the biggest fan of sweet baked treats (aside from cookies) and found the croissant to be average but will hit the spot if it sounds good to you. They had a free little library in there and I couldn't stop looking over the books while trying to have small talk with Emily. They also had some board games to play with friends and family. Overall, I really liked Roadrunner Coffee Co. They do seem to cater to more of flavored or specialty drinks but they do have a normal menu if black coffee is more your vibe. There is also a small breakfast/lunch menu if you are feeling peckish and need something to go with your caffeinated drink. Beep beep!

Pulled and stored espresso shots that ate essentially dead, aka .

I'm so glad I went into the actual business today because it'll be my last time. I love the bagels, especially the cheddar Jalapeño with cream cheese and pesto. Unfortunately, where they went wrong was with drinks. I ordered an iced latte. I asked for four shots of espresso. I watched them make my drink and they pulled espresso out of a pitcher from the fridge. She measured in a shot glass and then added more by eye. When I asked if they pull shots fresh, instead of letting them sit and die. She didn't know what I was talking about and said they "make a lot of espresso at once and only do it fresh if asked." What? I've never heard of that in my life. I would encourage these baristas to try a fresh shot and then a dead shot, then rethink your practices. The drink tasted like sweetened car battery acid. I unfortunately would not recommend a coffee shop that prepares espresso this way.

Avocado toast, Sausage egg cheese sandwich, latte

What a cute coffee spot! We went on a Saturday morning, the place has plenty of parking, and service was on point. We were able to get a table right away, placed our order and within minutes our food and coffee came surprisingly quick. My latte was the right temperature which allowed me to drink it right away yet casually while I ate my sandwich. I look forward to going back!

16 oz iced crème brûlée ($5.25)

Saw this little shop when I dropped my dog off at the vet and figured it would be a good place to wait rather than just sitting in my car in the July heat. So glad I did. What a cute coffee house! Roomy interior with lots of place to sit, friendly staff, large and tasty looking pastries and really good coffee drinks, Not bitter like Starbucks and not as sweet as Dutch Bros but smooth and flavorful. I got an iced Crème Brule and a bear claw. The crème brûlée coffee had white chocolate, Carmel and vanilla. As a added bonus since it's Thursday they offer a free added shot to any drink. They offered to warm the bear claw for me me (yes please!) and I have to say, it was one of the best I've had in recent memory, plenty of shaved almonds and generous filling. Now that I know they're here, I won't dread the visits to the vet quite as much.

Cherry danish

I was visiting a friend in Marana and this was the closest coffee shop I could find! It is in a strip mall so there is plenty of parking. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. I got the cheese danish and my friend got the cherry danish! Both were tasty and filling. They had a lot of different pastries to choose from if you want a snack with your drink. I got an iced vanilla latte which was lovely to sip on outside on the patio during a hot day. Service was quick and staff were friendly. Everything tasted good and I'm happy to have checked out a local coffee shop in town during my trip!

See all

It's a far piece for me and not worth a return but darn good pastry and decent bagels. If I did live close I would probably be a regular.

Haute Coffee - Matcha Latte with Oat

This is my morning stop. The owners also own frost so they use the gelato as the creamy base in…read moretheir drinks. My current go to is a Large Americano with a vanilla based. Not overly sweet ....perfect. They are located in La Encantada near the Campbell entrance across from North. It's a walk up but no one seems to mind me pulling up and parking for a minute to grab my drinks. The pastries are delicious...Almond, Pistachio, Nutella, and White Chocolate croissants...worth the carbs and calories. The aesthetics are really cool. They just added a bench and have tables to sit if you want to sit for a while and get some work done. The vibes is fresh and elevated without a hint of pretentiousness. The employees are friendly and helpful. Parking is not an issue. I would highly recommend you check this coffee shop out. I go her almost daily and have only great things to say

I LOVE a good coffee shop, especially a local shop with a funky vibe, so naturally while wandering…read morearound La Encantada, I had to pop in to Haute for a drink. I was after something basic, my usual of a cold brew with some variety of flavor and almond milk. Sadly, they did not have any sugar free flavorings beyond matcha, which I was not interested in, so I went for half sweet salted caramel with almond milk. I went with a large cold brew and with the add-ins, it came to around $5, which is a solid price! Sadly, the iced coffee was not good. It was borderline sour, which means it had been hanging out for a bit too long. The flavoring and milk couldn't even mask it and I could only stomach about half of it before calling it a day. Additionally, service was "bleh". Both baristas I encountered were low energy and just odd vibes for a cute local coffee shop. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing, as it sounds like their more complex house drinks are a bit more exciting. Now I know, and I wouldn't mind giving them a second go when I find myself back in the area. But until then, solid 2.5 for me.

Teaspoon - Champinones Al Ajillo

Teaspoon is one of the best overall restaurants in Tucson…read more I've been here a few times over the last year or so. It has never disappointed in service, quality or taste. (well once in taste, but I'll get to that) They have great in-house made items. Like the Challa bread, the preserves, their pesto. They most certainly know what they're doing. I had unseasoned filet mignon once, I believe it was the omelette. I talked to the manager. Now I wasnt upset, didn't send it back, I just told them what I experienced and mused that I found it odd the cook forgot a simple thing like salt. The manager acknowledged my complaint and that was all; or at least I was fine. Nope, she came back with a to-go box of croissants topped with cream and berries as an apology. They were tremendous by the way. She didn't have to do that. The ambiance is it's only weak point, but even that is minor. Simple black is fine. It's modern feeling and doesn't stand out loudly. They have outdoor seating, which early in the morning is fine, but id avoid in the summer, which will likely mean you'll be waiting, depending on the time. Oh! I forgot to mention, they have very good drinks. They really are intentional about the blend of flavors, they have a little something for everyone. All in all, I cannot recommend this place enough. It's been a shining star amongst Tucson restaurants and I am grateful they exist. Even to how they organize their menu partly by flavor profiles shows they genuinely LOVE food. I love food too, and I love here. Try this place. Today.

I ordered the lobster and crab omelet and found it under seasoned and devoid of much lobster or…read morecrab. As a whole, I feel like the side pairing of challah toast with jam and butter is an odd choice. I also ordered the iced Thai tea, which was quite weak. Overall--I wasn't really feeling it. When you go to Teaspoon, you're really paying for ambience over quality. There's no issue with the service here, from hosts to wait staff. The food is simply underwhelming, and thus so is the experience. I wouldn't be mad to return, but I don't know if this would ever be my suggestion.
