Tucson has a ton of great food - I've just focused on my favorites nearby. If you'd like suggestions outside the area - please feel free to ask!
I truly love this place! Great breakfast & lunch just a few blocks away. I highly recommend the huevos rancheros, big pancake, cobb salad & pork sandwich - but everything is delicious & the baked good are insane! Owners make a great effort to work with local farmers & makers. The market in the back has a very small but handy selection (eggs, milk, honey, chocolate, some produce, etc.). Large wine selection. Staff is super nice. Indoor & outdoor seating available.

Solid, traditional Tucson-style Mexican food with some more modern dishes available as well (including many vegan options). They are famous for their green corn tamales. I love their cheese crisps with green chilies. Good beer selection. Very close to the house - at night maybe a better drive than walk. Can be easy to miss - behind a Pawn shop & across from the Gloo Factory (print shop). Can get crowded & they do accept reservations for larger parties. Indoor seating only. I used to work for the family & grew up eating their food - wonderful folks.

Food truck with seating a few blocks away (corner of 22nd & 6th Ave)! My brother is a chef & makes amazing ceviche - but he says La Palma's is absolutely incredible. Outdoor seating only.

Little Poca Cosa is one of my favorite restaurants in the world! It's a must if you can swing it - only open weekdays for lunch. Located downtown next to the library. I highly recommend trying their fresh juices & the Plato Poca Cosa (a chef's choice sampler of 3 items) or the 1/2 & 1/2 (you choose the dishes). Currently outdoor seating only.

There’s often a line (which usually moves fast). Fairly affordable, and you can sit on the patio at the Mercado, which is pretty lovely. If you'd like an alcoholic beverage, you can order from the other restaurant/coffee shop attached to the square. Super kid & dog friendly.

Anita Street will likely redefine the flour tortilla for you. Homemade & mind blowing. If you've only ever had a store-bought tortilla - then you've never had a real one! My favorite bean & cheese burro in town. Small, old little market in a slightly hidden neighborhood (Barrio Anita) just north of downtown. Breakfast & lunch only. They have an outdoor garden if you'd like to sit & eat. Also great for take out. There are often lines - please be patient.

The Cup has good food & is open breakfast, lunch & dinner. However, I am mostly recommending for the historic ambience - and since you need to visit the hotel anyway at some point - you might as well stop here :). I love the interior, but the patio can also be lovely. Sunday brunch gets insanely crowded - I think because they have a bloody mary bar.

The Coronet just reopened in the former Cushing St Bar & Restaurant. Beautiful historic building. A bit pricey. Great cocktails. Friendly place. The bar is a nice place to go if you're on your own & want to grab a drink, & maybe have a chat. They often have live music. A beautiful walk through Barrio Viejo from the house. You might also visit the El Tiradito wishing shrine around the corner.

Eegee's is a local favorite for sure. I am not sure how magical it might be to non-Tucsonans - but it's worth a try, especially on a very hot day. Locally owned fast food chain with fairly good subs & great fries. But the main thing is the icy drink called the Eegee's, which is a flavored finely ground icy of sorts. I mean, it's hard to capture in words - it really just needs to be experienced on a 100+ degree day. I recommend starting with the classic lemon flavor - has real bits of lemon rind - delicious! Good for take out.

Delicious & affordable food at the MSA Annex. Order at the window & pick-up when you're called. If a lantern is hanging, then ramen is available. Seating is all outside at the Annex (when it's temperate - maybe hellish in the summer?). You might catch a nice view of A Mountain & maybe live music. Grab beer or wine at Tap & Bottle's Westbound open air bar next door. The Annex is a stylish rusted metal shipping container village deal with lots of ridiculous fancy shops, which you can enjoy or totally ignore (I usually do the latter but some cool stuff in there). Entire complex is outdoor seating.

I'm adding this restaurant because they have well-spaced outdoor seating in a lovely courtyard. Good food but a bit pricey for Tucson and not super "Tucsony" - so more adding as a good dining option during COVID.

Their green salsa is insanely good. This place is also all about cheese. I recommend ordering the sizling melted cheese appetizer, served with homemade torillas. I absolutely love their tortilla soup (more cheese!). Lots of hefty portion traditional main dishes - usually covered in melted cheese! Needless to say this was a childhood favorite. It can be loud & crowded. Good for families. I haven't been to the one on Oracle (just Speedway), but Oracle location is closer.

Holy moly the pasta is amazing! The gelato looks spectacular but haven’t been able to try it yet. The street was recently closed off, so there’s outdoor seating with some umbrella shade - but seating may also be available in the lovely Old Town Artisans courtyard (which also has a restaurant). Historic neighborhood & a block from the art museum.

The Santa Cruz River might not be what non-desert-dwellers would consider a river?...it's kind of a trickle most of the time. Nonetheless, it's important to us Tucsonans, including wildlife. https://www.webcms.pima.gov/government/the_loop/

Hiking, Nature & Road Trips

A short drive from the house & within the city. This is a challenging cardio workout (for me at least, but that's probably not saying much). Some beautiful views & nature, but also very popular & crowded. If you are walking alone this is an excellent option.

This is my favorite hike! Mellow but a good walk. Close to the city (maybe even in the city limits) but you somehow feel far away. Stunning view & beautiful stands of sahuaros. I've seen all kinds of wildlife out there! You can hike to the old homestead to rest, and keep going (will get steeper) or a good place to turn around if you want to stay mellow.

Located in historic Hotel Congress, which is a must. A classic - but personally I prefer to go during the day as sometimes the nights can be a little obnoxious. Also if you're lucky you can catch Tiger bartending (days only). Sweet little outdoor patio to look at the sky & listen to the trains. The club also has lots of great live shows.

Very close local spot over in the warehouse area east of Armory Park. Nice walk. Just standard bar fare & locally brewed beer. But it's nice to sit out on the porch & watch the trains go by + nice views. Seems to be a local favorite. One of the 1st local breweries.

This isn't my personal favorite as it gets a bit loud & crowded - but many people do love it. You can generally catch some good local, live music (usually Thursdays). Cool old building next to Exo Roast. Huge beer & good wine selection.

My favorite dive bar - probably in the world. A Tucson legend that opens at 6am and smells faintly of a urinal cake. Great characters at the bar and usually behind it. Overall good vibe, jukebox, & pool table, + lots of graffiti. I used to eat hot dogs here, but I wouldn't recommend it :).

I love this cozy place. Most of downtown has become pretty obnoxious but you can sneak in to The Good Oak & get a reprieve. Good bar food. Across from the Congress Hotel & sandwiched between the Rialto & some super gross bars.

Family owned place that’s been around for ages & located just a few blocks from the house. Really good beer & liquor selection & not bad for wine either.
