    Brat cat, be warned
    Chase E.

    Where the local bartenders go to drink! Best in town! Icons - Founder Churchhill (RIP) & wife Elizabeth, Exsul John, Kalkbrenner Jack, Interloper Olivia, Kirsten and soup chef Louyi. Opened in south Tucson (south barrio Barbara Rosa) where no other businesses like them exist. Dive, dark with an outdoor venue patio haven. Rare metal / indie shows. This bar took a chance opening in far south Tucson and we all love & support them dearly always.

    Sour recommendation from the bartender. Super delicious.

    Stopped in for a bloody mary on a Saturday around noon. Barely anyone was there, but we loved the vibe. The bartender, Tina, was a total sweetheart and made us feel at home. We stayed for another drink because we didn't want to leave. The only thing I wish I could change was that it was closer to my home.

    These super sweet long wood tables

    The steel and woodwork alone make me a fan, the industrial feel of the raw and reclaimed wood amazingly done. The tables must be made from old telephone poles so so so cool. Just off south 4th in the beautiful downtown of South Tucson, 1 mile square, this place is not expected. Friday there were 6 bands outside, a guy making these amazing fish taco's on a picnic table. The guttural and completely visceral feel of the space made me feel like I was a friends house, rather than in a bar.

    One of the top 10 Bloody Mary's in AZ!

    Great vibe. Chill bartenders. Pool table. And a secret backyard area that has lots of funky art and intrigue.

    One fateful night in Tucson, we stumbled upon the Unicorn Zebra. We had never heard of this place…read morebut were curious so we went in. We were greeted by a giant statue of a unicorn zebra and of course took a selfie. We then went to the bar area and absolutely loved the dark speakeasy vibes. Burk, the handsome man with a shiny head, was at the bar. He handed us a drink menu that contained fun drink names like Death of a Unicorn. The drinks tasted good and had a lovely presentation. Mine even came in a zebra mug. We also learned that this bar has both an upstairs and downstairs area. We enjoyed a couple of drinks and headed home. This place left such an impression that we have been back two times since. On another occasion we had Nate the bartender. He had a lovely personality and accommodated all of the guests that came in near closing. We enjoyed Santa's Banana Hammock and Unicorn Ski Accident. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem. I look forward to seeing where this place goes. It has a ton of potential for special events with the basement area. P.s. It's also a boutique hotel. You could always book a room and enjoy dreams downstairs without having to drive

    It remains a favorite, alas no more a secret. We were hankering for a spontaneous post-ATC-theater…read moredrink and this venue popped back into my head. Same charms, different bartender, and new summer (May) craft cocktails that have become quite substantial (see pic of double-sided menu). Though we arrived at 4:10 (right after their usual 4p opening) on a Saturday, no happy hour, but we were first patrons and grabbed the big bay window. We are both on a mezcal discovery kick and ordered the Black Cathedral ($16) and the Girl Dinner ($16). Each was as described (pic) and delicious. We had dinner plans and needed to leave at 5:15 - just as things were picking up. We'll definitely be back sooner.

    I randomly found this while searching online for local restaurants in Tucson. Upon finding it, I…read morewas so excited to try it out and immediately made reservations a couple weeks out. Once my husband and I arrived, at 7 o'clock on a Friday a couple weeks ago, we were sat immediately. I ordered a Horchata, I found their take on it, refreshing and unique. The pistachio coconut rim was so different, but good! I ordered the chef board appetizer ,which comes out looking like a work of art. I believe there were four different cheeses/spreads, and multiple arrays of fruits and sides. I loved it! My husband liked his pork belly appetizer too. Our meals were both phenomenal, with my husband, choosing the salmon dish and I had the chicken piccata dish. Fries taste fresh and had the perfect crisp tothem., well, though I didn't expect the olives with my entree, they really helped him make the dish! Even the leftover was amazing. My only complaint from this visit was the $14 curry I ordered which was severely lacking. I love curry and order it often at different places. This one could've used more flavor, and I really wish it would've had more than just potatoes in it. I definitely took it home to work on it. This place is pretty pricey , and boosts are very small menu, but they did have some nightly specials to also order from. It's extremely small with only six tables maybe, but there is a covered and enclosed patio as well!

    The first time we went to Casa Madre was amazing! The food was absolutely delicious and I had my…read morefavorite cocktail of all time there. We've eaten a lot of food and had a lot of cocktails over the years and honestly this is one of the greatest meals we had. Though it's small the atmosphere was fun and yet still felt private. However that didn't stop us from pushing our table together with the couple next to us even though we didn't know them....we couldn't ignore each other's oooing and ahhhing about the food and so we decided to join tables and order every single dessert to share! So not only do we have a great meal , but we made new friends! The service was fantastic. We wanted to go back for a special occasion but unfortunately they had to unexpectedly close for the evening. However they let us know about the issue and we're looking forward to going back another time.
