Food Scene

Time Market is a great spot to grab a sandwich, salad or slice of pizza. High quality ingredients, organic bread and dough, vegetarian friendly. Beer, wine and coffee bar, also available to go. The little market focuses on organic and local items. Pro Tip: when ordering a sandwich, make sure it comes on pan levain instead of the baguette, the roof of your mouth will thank us ;)

Located within Hotel Congress, Cup Cafe is a great spot to eat anytime, but they are famous for their Bloody Mary bar and cast iron baked eggs. Very popular brunch spot.

Great new Brewery/restaurant in the heart of downtown. Check out their weekly specials, but their french fries are the best in town. GF and vegan friendly!

Drinks & Nightlife

Hotel Congress is the anchor of downtown. It is a music venue, a dive bar and a nightlife scene all wrapped into one. The building itself is historic (1919) and is the site where Dillinger's gang was arrested

Great spot to try out craft beer and wine on rotating taps along with a take out option for bottles. Mix and match a 6 pack to try new beers to go, or borrow one of our growlers! Great local hang out any night of the week. Family friendly with board games. They do not serve food but will have a food truck set up outside most nights.

Sightseeing

Take a drive out west towards the desert museum and enjoy the scenery. This is also a great spot for a picnic and/or to watch an incredible Tucson sunset (it's a thing out here)

This is a must for first timers!! It is a nature walk, zoo, botanical garden and museum all in one. Bring a reusable water bottle, suncreen and footwear designed for long walks. And don't miss the raptor free flight! The drive out along is worth it, see Gate's Pass for more detail.

Parks & Nature

A beautiful drive up Mount Lemmon is a must to either escape the summer heat or see snow in the winter. There are plenty of hiking trails with great views. Midweek is likely best.

The most popular hiking trail in town, but well worth the visit. The tram will take you to different starting points. Great to visit after some rain to check out the waterfalls.
