    Pueblo Vida Kintsugi (local IPA)

    This is a great bottle shop located in downtown Tucson. The tap list rotates regularly and usually had a great mix of local and other beers. In addition to a long tap list, they also have a good selection of liquor for mixed drinks. They sometimes have live music and food trucks and when they don't, they usually have something chill playing (currently it's jazz). If to go is more your style, they have a huge selection of cans, wine, and liquor. The bar tenders are helpful and knowledgeable and willing to help. (Once, while searching for a local whiskey, the bartender took the time to call their other location for me.) If you are in downtown Tucson, this is a must stop. Check their social media and website for details on food trucks and events.

    I did not know what "Bacanora or Sotol" were. Turns out they are Tequila from specific regions in Mexico

    Was looking to try local beers, but stumbled upon Tap & bottle and Im so glad I did. This place is pretty incredible in every sense of the word. Great tap selection, great can selection, nice wine selection, nice cocktail selection & they even have a hard liquor menu that is small, but very nice. I spent most of my time talking to Wally, who was the consummate host, imparting info & "libations" like a well oiled machine. I got to try some great brews, Cerebral DDH Rare Trait was beyond great, some alcohol I knew nothing about & Wally was a wonderful guide. If your in Tucson, this is your next stop, folks...

    Nice large space with lots of open seating at the bar and various tables. Pretty friendly as well. They definitely carry a nice selection of beers and spirits and we found some yummy options. This is definitely one of those places where your bartenders are hit or miss and this can really determine the way the evening goes. The first lady that helped us was nice enough, but definitely didn't care to engage. We figured it was because she was wrapping up her shift. The next was a guy that really didn't want to be bothered to answer a question and appeared offended to be at the time and place to be asked a question. The second two ladies were very friendly, answered questions, and very helpful and welcoming. Maybe it was too many people behind the bar, who knows. We ended up deciding that we'd rather try other places than stay. Anyway, the two friendly ladies whose names I didn't get carried the team for sure. Points for the great selection. I would probably opt for other options in the area next time I'm around.

    I stopped by here as I was in the neighborhood. It was my first time and I wanted to see if the reviews were accurate. They are. A blues band was playing as I walked in. I sat at the bar and ordered a Pure Project Rain pilsner from San Diego. Service was friendly and fast. The beer was a classic beer. Pints of draft beer range from $7 to $8.50, depending on the alcohol volume. That seems to be the new price range these days. The place is smaller than I imagine, and I'm sure this place can get loud and crowded on a weekend. It's cozy when it's quiet, though, with the dark wood interior. Tables are up front by the door, and a long bench is in the rear where the chilled beers are. They have a wide variety of beers and wine on tap, so there's bound to be something for everyone.

    What to say that hasn't already been said about T&B? It's changed the scene in town and allowed a lot of other places to pop up and thrive. Regular events, great bartenders, fresh clean beer, brewery collaborations, and oodles of good times to be had. They have a rotating cast of food trucks too. Come on down to the original and see what the fuss is all about.

    Located beside Exo Coffee & across from Miller's Surplus, this is a good place to chill out from the heat and do some day drinking. They had a variety of beers on tap and some wines. If you don't find anything you like, head to the back to the coolers and check out the ciders and beers. Take it to go or drink it there.

    We love Tap and Bottle. This place has something for everyone. The atmosphere is so welcoming and everyone inside always looks like they are having a good time. The options for drinks change frequently so anytime you go you can always try something new. They offer beer and wine on tap as well as having a large refrigerated selection of individual can options. The food options for Tap and Bottle come from the food trucks that pull up outside. These also vary based on the day. I've never seen the place empty and I've gone on different days and at different times. I've been to both this location and I still prefer this one. It has such a relaxed and friendly vibe. This is a great place to take out of town friends if you're looking for a local Tucson hangout.

    Bartender and menu

    I really wanted to like this place and check it out further. The decor looked fun. Unfortunatley when we were first approached by the bartender, she was almost snarling at us, that should have told us to leave. When we asked about beers and cocktails she put down a menu in front of us and stated "You aren't in Mexico anymore ". I am totally appalled by her racist comment. If there were zero stars to give I would have. I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND this establishment!

    Left to Right: Death by Coconut / Belgian Peach / Passionfruit Pinner / Imperial Raspberry Stout.

    Upon recommendation of my fiancé's brother & his wife (who have been to multiple breweries in Tucson), we all headed over to Tap & Bottle to get some brews. All orders were placed at the bar and the beers were poured & served to us immediately. I was really surprised to see that they had 20+ beer choices on tap AND also a few wine choices on tap. I'm actually not much of a beer drinker, so I thought I would try out some of the fruitier beers. I went with a flight of the Death by Coconut, Belgian Peach, Passionfruit Pinner, and Imperial Raspberry Stout. As expected, I liked the Belgian Peach and Passionfruit Pinner the best since the Death by Coconut and Imperial Raspberry Stout were both dark beers. While the coconut, peach, and passionfruit flavor came through in the beers, the raspberry one was the only one that did not have as much of the flavor as expected. I actually liked the Passionfruit Pinner so much, I went back up to get a 16oz glass of it (which is unusual for me). My fiancé ended up going with a flight as well with the Campfire Stout, Tank 7, Victory @ Sea, and Black Butte XXVIII. Three of the beers were really dark (Tank 7 was not), but the favorite of this flight was definitely the Campfire Stout. You could literally taste a marshmallow flavor in the beer, like a s'more. His brother ended up going back to get that a full glass of that one and commented that he liked it much more than the Death by Coconut which he had gotten first. Fiancé's brother's wife got two different kinds of red wine and commented that the AZ wine (did not catch the name) was the better of the two. Pricing was fair (I believe). The four 5oz pours for the flight were $9, and the 16oz was $5.50. I'm not sure how this compares to other breweries, however I will say that the beers were very strong! We went early afternoon on a Saturday so it wasn't too busy. We were able to grab a parking spot right out front and an empty table inside as well. I didn't get a chance to look through their bottle beer selection but did notice they had quite a few options. I would definitely make a trip back here while in Tucson!

    Beer and wine menu!

    Every bit as cool Inside as it looks from the outside. In the art district, this wine bar has the set of tinted windows to match the other businesses on this road. They have an extensive list of wine and beer available including a massive collection of bottles in the back area. They do not serve food but there is typically a food truck outside each night for those wanting a bite to eat with their drinks! Overall a great experience despite the mildly terse interaction I had with one of the bartenders. She was short and rude with my husband and I and I'm not sure what brought that on but it kinda left a sad memory of the place.

    One of the best bars, and best bar scenes, in Tucson. Correction: Three of the best bars, with locations downtown, on the west side, and up in the northwest. I've been to all three but mostly go to downtown and northwest, and (1) the staff is friendly and attentive, without exception and (2) the selection is great and adventuresome. (Try the Two Stacks Irish whiskey, not a common sight, at least not yet.) I always look forward to my visits to T&B.

    I'm happy to have finally gotten a chance to visit Unicorn Zebra since it's been on my list from…read morethe time they opened. It's a fun and also elegant atmosphere with the zebra theme clearly exemplified across the space. I would have to say this is one of the coziest bars I've been to, the furniture and seating is really supportive of a long-term visit. There are other levels, lower and an upper level besides the main space, but be aware that if there are parties, they can typically take up different areas. Our bartender, Sarah was fantastic! The way that she handled all of the guests and the busy field was incredible, so calm and collected, and furthermore making some really incredible drinks. Heads up that the online drink menu is not the current drink menu, I couldn't remember all the names of our drinks and put those in the photo captions, so when I checked on the website, the menu was showing something different other than what I saw at the bar. Out of several places I've been to, I'd say the mixture of flavors and details in the drinks are quite unique. I'll be back for more one day

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 enjoy some challenging textures and flavors for the sake of experiences. What I tried over 2.5 hours: -Nixtamalized Barrel cactus fruit aged in ash with chiltepin jam and chiltepin leaves preserved in vinegar. I liked it- sweet and smokey. The barrel fruit was a tad fibrous. -Refried tepary beans with wolfberry and a green powder of globe mellow salsa verde. The powder was tart and yummy. The tepary beans tasted fairly simple. The dried cactus was nice- reminded me of kale chips. The tortillas of my friend's omni menu were very soft and pliable. -Yakitori: Barrel cactus fruit with candied Tohono O'odham Ha:l Squash,mesquite tare and marinated cholla buds reduction from last year's cholla, topped with jojoba seeds. This was a fave. -Maitake with corn rib and desert botanical bonchons. I thought the name might have referred to Banchan, the small Korean side plates of kimchi etc since there was kimchi in one of the bites on the plate but it was spelled Bonchon, "my hometown" in Korean. The heirloom corn vegemite bite was umami as expected. The snail shaped amaranth leaves white kimchi bite was tart, bold and delicious. The corn rib bite was topped with pickled yucca bud pieces on top- I loved getting to try that and loved the flavor and texture of it. A sunflower head "brisket" bite was really interesting and I enjoyed the brisket flavoring that was achieved here. The texture felt fitting for it too and it seemed clever. Likely a challenging bite for some with the flower flavors and texture in the end. The amaranth dumpling bite was filled with something else made from amaranth I didn't catch. The last bite of this plate was the Maitake mushroom with palo verde- delish. -Raw Nopal with preserved amaranth pico de gallo with agave pulque -blackened agave frozen granita with pico de gallo and pressed coriander ironwood emulsion. Vinegary and refreshing- Big hit. -Kaiseki: cactus bud, three sisters stew, cowpea and ironwood blossom. We were also given a complimentary Non- Alcoholic beverage with it: a chilled palo verde Pu-erh fermented tea. It had a light fizzy feel. LOVED the drink and it balanced the saltiness of the stew. The broth that the waiter added to the stew at the table was overly salted but the stew was good and was more filling than the other dishes so far. I liked the meaty texture of the ironwood flower. This course came with a tostada topped with refried tepary beans and prickly pear tunas and with young cactus in salt bush emulsion. -Wolfberry sorbet- served beautifully. Very sweet and single note.The waiter said the wolfberries on top were pickled and I wish I tasted pickled flavor because it would have provided balance. I tried my companions roasted Huuñ Ga'i sherbet with kombucha soaked corn and preserved amaranth flowers and enjoyed it more than the wolfberry sorbet. -Wildflowers-Cactus sorbet with frosted amaranth leaves and cactus marmalade. I would have enjoyed it more if it didn't come right after the overly sweet wolfberry sorbet. It was more balanced but I really was sweetened-out. It had some medicinal notes but was interesting. I liked the cactus marmalade pieces. I like the leaves that were super crispy but some were heavily frosted with sugar. I LOVED my companion's Wildflowers dessert. It was a warm miso cake with mesquite, brittlebush curd and cactus marmalade.The mesquite really came through here wonderfully. -Pimachata: Candied squash and aerated squash. Was craving something savory now but luckily this one was less sweet and more balanced. My companion seemed to enjoy her goat cheese ice cream. With the check, came two sticks with mesquite gummies.I love mesquite but this again was a tad too sweet now. The least positive part for me was the service. I was surprised that a place with a focus of introducing people to food of the desert they might not know about would not have the servers engage when someone seems very interested, like me. No written menu/ description was given during the meal and I tried my best to write down notes as the waiter was listing the descriptions extremely quickly in a rehearsed way without engaging with us and without slowing down much when asked. I asked for an extra note card and he gave me a blank receipt. The most confusing part was that they ended up bringing us a printed menu with the dishes listed when we finished the full meal. We were so flabbergasted as to why he wouldn't mention it was coming when I was writing notes or even better provided it at the start. It felt that the servers were very focused on doing a rehearsed part instead of engaging meaningfully. I was very happy with my pay-what- you-wish experience and I experienced all of this like art viewing. So cool getting to try so many local desert plants!

The staff also were kind enough to move one of our chairs out of the way so our dog had lots of room to lay down. Staff were all very kind and never seemed annoyed with the dog (you can always tell at a restaurant if they are, and they were very happy to accommodate him). Very dog friendly!! The food: We gotta talk about their French onion soup. It was pretty dang delicious! The broth itself is quite nice, a nice cheese portion, and the baguette was divine. I also had their French Connection sandwich (with a side of fries), and it had a great combo of ooey, gooey cheese, firm and flavorful ham, and served on a really delicious loaf. Really solid fries, too. We didn't end up getting any drinks but saw several people ordering yummy looking bites. If (but likely when) we come back to Tucson, I'm making a point to return to Cup Cafe!
