First off, this little plaza itself is adorable -- brick-lined, laid-back, and low-key in the best way. There's a shared courtyard and seating area with Vitality Bowls, which happens to be another favorite of mine, so the whole space has this wellness-forward vibe that just works. I've visited other Savaya locations before, but this one might be my favorite purely for the atmosphere. I ordered a lemon turmeric tea over ice (you can also get it hot), and it was refreshing and flavorful -- I drank it so fast I didn't even manage to snap a photo. The tea menu is extensive without feeling overwhelming, so it's worth taking a minute to browse. There were several vegan drink options and a few vegan bites available as well (they may have just been picked over when I arrived). The service was friendly, there's both indoor and outdoor seating, and the space seemed to naturally attract groups meeting up and hanging out. Between the cozy courtyard, good tea, and relaxed energy, this is an easy spot to meet friends or settle in for a casual catch-up. I'll absolutely be back.

Okay HELLO to my new favorite brunch spot in Tucson!!!! I'm influenced beyond belief, and I cannot…read morewait to come back and try everything. For starters, it's a cute spot. Intimidatingly small at first, but there's a good amount of seating in the back of house and on the patio so you can make do. Staff keeps things moving along too, so I can't imagine that long of a wait here. Now the food. I'm getting hungry just typing about it. Let me summarize. Not a single thing was below a 9/10. Not one. The standouts are by far the mamacita burrito. I could eat one a day. The carrot cinnamon roll pancakes are breaking my heart because they're seasonal. Please please please please make them permanent!! That is all. Come here next brunch.

This isn't one of those places, it's a fully stand alone coffee shop adjacent to the bicycle shop. This is a unique coffee shop, older brick building with a nice interior. It also has a patio in the back which is pretty cool. I've tried the sage latte and cold brew, both are very good. The staff are nice as well. The ultimate highlight for me is the food. They carry pastries that I haven't seen anywhere else, the ding dong is the bomb if you grew up in the 80s or 90s, its like a hybrid of the hostess cup cake and a ding dong. Definitely added to my rotation of favorite coffee shops to go to.

The restaurant wasn't very busy, so we enjoyed a relaxed atmosphere, the prices were reasonable, and our waitress was friendly and attentive. The Frida Kahlo-inspired décor was bright, colorful, and fun--it added a unique vibe that made the experience feel special. Overall, a solid choice for a tasty, laid-back breakfast spot in Tucson that didn't seem impossible to get into like some other places on the weekend. Will add it to the rotation for the future.

The pot de creme was just as I remembered it...a smooth, deep chocolate flavor with notes of brown butter. Delicious!

They opened a Dunkin' Donuts next-door so if you wanted to get a doughnut and then get coffee, I suppose you could but their pastries are pretty awesome and as of today, I learned they offer Tucson tamales.

Half a dozen of our dancers descended on the place and they were already deep into the lunch crowd (around 11:30 a.m.) on a Sunday. This lovely employee offered to take care of us and showed us to a table that was able to accommodate all of us. She then proceeded to kindly answer questions, take our orders, and followed up with us to make sure we had everything we needed. I wish I'd gotten her name but I did not, so hopefully whoever sees this can pass along compliments to management (I'm writing this on the same day as the visit)! As for the food and beverages, there were so many more options than I would have imagined at a smaller location like this. I got the horchata which was delicious, and then ordered a yogurt parfait from the breakfast menu and the Sonoran dog from the lunch menu. Thankfully they sell both breakfast and lunch menu items all day! The yogurt parfait was perfect, the yogurt was tasty and not too sweet, and the blueberries were plentiful along with a smattering of strawberries and great granola. The Sonoran dog came with chips and was appropriately topped, with plenty on it yet not so messy that I couldn't eat it. Of course you could not ask for a better environment in which to enjoy your food and drink, because what's more beautiful than the botanical gardens! It's really nice to have a quality restaurant inside a place like this because a lot of times it can be hard to find good food at a place where that's not the main attraction. If you are visiting the botanical gardens you should definitely check out Edna's Eatery! Next time I plan on trying the frozen fruit pops....

I love starting my mornings in a garden right when it opens, so I was excited to grab a coffee to begin my visit. Sadly, my iced coffee was not drinkable. The flavor was bitter, and the cream separated immediately, leaving it tasting and looking unappealing. It's disappointing to encounter something like this in such a beautiful location, especially after paying $5 for the drink. A garden this lovely deserves beverages that match the experience, and I hope they make an effort to significantly improve.
