Since the pop-up location on 6th in Sam Hughes is no longer, I will have to come to the original for my burritos and cold brew. I love their food and great service. I wish they had another location further east, but I am glad that the business is still alive and kicking in the barrio. Two orders of sausage burritos with red salsa and a barrio cold brew made my day. read more

Used to come here years ago (2019-2020) when working downtown in an office and fell in love then with this place. Had not been in over 6 years when I went today to this awesome place. The line was the usual long line and with my dog, was much better as people talk and pet dogs in line and it went fairly fast. The line was in shade with the nearby tree so it made it that much better. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is the misters around that are welcomed by all, the pretty tree and greenery and fencing and signage they have used to decorate this small outdoor place so well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shaded and covered tables outside had various chairs and enough space for people to rotate in and out- esp with our dogs that love the cool brick to lie on:)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Now, the absolute best part is the food- still amazingly worth waiting for and delicious!! I got the burrito( basic has potato, egg, beans , cheese) and the protein I added was bacon and extra was guac. Also got the 16oz Dirty Chai. My friend came for first time and was surprised to open her order and find two burritos- I knew and wanted to see her face- she loved the taste and the fact she had lunch or dinner later as one truly is so full of deliciousness- it fills you up! We each had one we took home ! This place- just a treat for anyone wanting fantastic and pure local service and food! Highly recommend!!! read more

These burritos totally live up to the hype. There's was a super long line, and I totally get why. The burritos themselves are really simple, but SO good. Nothing overcomplicated, just done really well. I also noticed their drinks looked amazing, so I'll definitely be trying one next time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The seating is all outdoor and the decor is pretty eclectic. A super fun place to be![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Only heads up is their morning hours are pretty short, so make sure to check before you go. Overall, absolutely worth it. read more

Barista Del Barrio - Choriza = A++. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

These breakfast burritos have the perfect amount of grilled crunch to them. The balance in general is simply faultless, you get egg, potato, cheese, and whatever else you may have added in each and every bite. The wait times are the only downside, truly. But the food is so good that so many of us are willing to wait the 30min, so take that as you will. Totally worth trying, especially if you have time to spare. read more

Barista Del Barrio - Soy-rizo Burrito - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Barista Del Barrio is quickly becoming one of my favorite breakfast spots in Tucson. Located near Arizona State Schools for the Deaf and the Blind, the heart of the Deaf community in Tucson, this area already feels like home to me so finding a spot like this makes it even better. Their breakfast burritos are unreal because you can customize almost everything for the same price unless you add extra meat. I got the chorizo burrito with a red tamale inside and WOW... they served it as two smaller burritos and I honestly think it's one of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had. Filling, flavorful, and unique. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion you get too. Since it's a family owned business, the people there are incredibly kind and welcoming which makes the whole experience feel personal. Definitely a must stop in Tucson. read more

Visiting a friend and Tucson and said all I want while I'm here is Mexican food because it's not good on the east coast. She didn't disappoint with this spot! THE FOOD - I ordered the breakfast burrito and it comes with 2 medium-ish sized burritos -I don't like pinto beans and they have no other options so I got without beans. -I ordered with bacon and did not like the consistency, it was hard and kind of burnt pieces. I would opt for ham or chorizo next time -loved the sauces it came with -my favorite part was the tortilla...I rank these as best tortillas of the trip THE DRINKS -they offer a wide variety of house made flavors, I had a difficult time deciding! -I opted for dulce de leche "less sweet" and found it was still sweet but not too overpowering for my taste. I recommend less sweet if you're not a sugar bomb drink person! THE SERVICE -very kind, they answered all my questions (about beans and sugar mostly) -note that it gets very busy so expect to wait in line! We were there about 20 min after opening and it was a short wait but the line got loonngggg quick! THE ATMOSPHERE -[[HIGHLIGHT]]outdoor only seating which is generally fine in AZ, I was here during the very rare occasions it rained so the seats were wet from the night before[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] -[[HIGHLIGHT]]cool art/murals[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would definitely go back! Now that I'm all the way across the country I am craving that iced coffee for sure. read more

Barista del Sol is the kind of place that reminds you why you fall in love with local food. Tucked right in the heart of Barrio Hollywood, it's an old converted house that's somehow managed to turn into Tucson's best-kept secret -- lines down the block, every kind of person in town waiting patiently for a bite of something sacred. And honestly? Worth. Every. Minute. This is the burrito to end all burritos -- easily the best I've had in years. Every bite is layered with flavor, the sauce is perfection, and you can just tell everything's made with love (and probably a few secret family recipes). The tamales are unreal too, and bonus points for offering vegan options that actually hit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's only outdoor seating, but it adds to the charm -- the sunshine, the chatter, the smell of masa in the air.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You just post up, unwrap your food, and know you're about to experience something that defines Tucson food culture. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Barista del Sol isn't just a restaurant. It's a vibe, a neighborhood ritual, and a full-blown food heaven moment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I am going to have to lower my review a star solely due to consistently poor customer service and delivery. My grading team has tried ordering delivery from this location multiple times and have always faced issues. Two out of three times we were missing burritos and each time we received only half the burritos with written labels so we couldn't tell the orders apart. Any attempt to call this location goes straight to voicemail. It is extremely frustrating having to drive somewhere to have your delivery order fixed. We will no longer be ordering barista for delivery. I will continue to come order in person because the burritos are delicious, but I've learned my lesson. read more

If you don't get there right when it opens expect a line! That's how good this place is- great coffee and amazing breakfast burritos! The staff are all amazing and greet you with smiles! If it's your first time they are happy to make recommendations so that you pick the right choice! Next time I'm in town this will definitely be a place I stop in again' read more

I heard about this place from my friend so I decided to try out Sunday morning. Their hours are from 8 AM to 12 PM. We came about 11 AM and there was a shorter line. The items on the menu were simple and the price were decent. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience was casual and chill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Most people just waited outside for their food.

This place is not as good as it use to be. Burrito was mid. Salsa was the saving grace and the only thing that hasn't changed. Burnt tasting coffee with no sweetness. Coffee and food is not made with the same care as when it was family ran. read more

I came here early one morning with a friend and we ordered food and it got ready in no time. I've heard great things about this place the whole time I lived in Tucson, but I was never able to actually go. I got the bacon breakfast burrito and was really excited to find two in there when I opened it up! I also tried a hazelnut chai, but for some reason they gave me a churro chai. It was still excellent, wasn't a huge fan of the souls, and wish that they gave you more, but overall incredible! read more

10/10 my favorite quick burritos in Tucson! These take me right back to childhood in Rocky Point getting burritos from a beach vendor. The tortillas are so chewy and soft! I love the bacon or chorizo- cant go wrong either way! And now they have vegan options! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The little shop is great for checking out while you wait (or for picking up preorders).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is always chill- make sure you get there early - the line is usually long (but always worth it)![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ohhh and the bario berry lemonade is a must!!! read more

It felt like coming home! What a sweet spot for authentic Mexican burritos. We ordered the Machaca with everything and the chicken tinga with everything. The tortillas felt like abuela just made them and the ratio of ingredients to tortilla was perfect. The flavor felt like "homemade with love". If you grew up eating machaca burritos, you'd understand. We ordered an Americano coffee and an Horchata latte no sweetener. They were both perfect!! Service was prompt and line moved quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They offer outdoor seating if you choose to stay.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommended and very excited to return. read more

Usually deterred by the long line but finally made it out and the line moves quickly! The best quality is the grilled tortilla for the added texture. They come as 2 smaller hand-holdable burros and definitely solid with base fix ins. I doubled meat to get both chorizo and sausage and actually enjoyed the sausage a bit more for the breakfast burrito but no qualms with the chorizo. Also grabbed a tamale which tasted more like sweet corn masa. Would definitely come back if I'm in town looking for breakfast! read more

The vibe here is so pleasant and mellow. The over-the-top refreshing outdoor misters could put out a fire. All this is important because lines are a consistent thing here. I almost never order flavored coffees or specialty drinks. Here, though, the horchesso hot latte was balanced and not syrupy or artificial. The croissant with egg and cheese was good but sort of smooshed in the foil wrapping. It wasn't a deal breaker because it was good. Since I arrived by bicycle, this was more than enough food. I packed the bean and cheese burrito on my bike to snack on later after more riding. It was fresh and filling. I don't know that I've seen regular lines at any business in Tucson, especially one that has been open for some years. That Barista del Barrio has them obviously says a lot. read more

Bookmarked this place before we came to visit so on our way from the west side of the national park over to the east we decided to stop for coffee and a breakfast burrito. I will say, the line was loooong (which was no surprise having read reviews). It did take quite a while to get through the line and get our order. That said, we really enjoyed our coffee and burrito! My wife got the iced peanut butter latte and I got the iced horchata latte, and we shared a sausage burrito with guacamole. The red salsa was excellent. I don't think it is overhyped, I just think you need to be prepared to wait! read more

I am obsessed with their lattes, super yummy! Especially their horchata latte. Their burritos are super good as well. I recently tried their egg and cheese croissant, which you can also add protein to. Every time I've gone, I've had to wait 15-35 mins for my order. Just in case you're in a rush, plan for a possible wait. read more

Been coming here for a while now and I'm not sure what's changed, but the wait times are ridiculous for a breakfast burrito. The lines are still long because their burritos are great, but it seems their kitchen staff has bitten off more than they can chew! They now have dinner items and I'm unsure if that's the difference. In any event, I'm not a fan of having the new slow service. Everything else is the same but they need to get back to keeping it simple and consistent. read more

Friendly service and a gem tucked away in a neighborhood. I came down to Tucson for work and after 1.5 hrs driving, was hungry. This place came up first on my "breakfast burrito Tucson" Google search and had an impressive 4.8 rating. Pulling up, it looks like a little coffee window but there was a line outside, which IMO is a good sign. I ordered the build your own grilled burrito with machaca and a mexican chocolate latte. Both burritos did not survive my hunger and I especially liked the red sauce with it! Normally I am a green sauce gal but their red sauce stood out. Service was also friendly and quick. Will put this place on my map for future Tucson visits! read more

The coffee is excellent, and their breakfast burritos live up to the hype. They were voted Best Breakfast Burrito in Tucson, and they aren't lying. They let you build your own, and I tried the chorizo burrito and the machaca burrito. Both were amazing. I bought a few for my family, and everyone loved them.

Is this place overrated? Absolutely not. They have the best breakfast burritos I've ever had and a Mexican chocolate latte. You will need to wait, be prepared for that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Most of the waiting is to order, but they do have a little patio in the shade where you can eat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Limited tables, so if you need to grab and go, that probably works best.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went here twice in our short stay in Arizona.

What a fantastic little gem we found on our trip to Tucson.

I highly recommend grabbing a breakfast burrito from here to start your day. Good vegetarian options too read more

The absolute best breakfast spot I've been to here at Tuscon, the burritos are well worth the hype. Lots of variety, and I greatly appreciate that they have a handful of vegan options that are really good (mushroom chorizo is my favorite). Their green sauce is incredible, their coffee is pretty great, and they give you a lot of food even considering they are on the pricier side. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pretty busy but the line moves fast and I love that their patio area is well shaded and seated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Heard A Lot about this place from so many people. Today was the day! It was worth waiting for, as evidenced by the crowd. The line was long but a surprisingly short wait. It appears to be a University favorite based upon the bevy of lovely coeds. Everyone cheerful and happy to get their order in and take a seat. Lots of cute seating alcoves tucked in about the property. Our buzzer went off quickly indicating order ready for pick up. It was delicious!!!! They are happy to customize your order and have many vegan options which is nice. This is a multigenerational business and they have ties to the immediate neighborhood. This near west side spot is home to many long standing restaurants that know the value of delicious reasonably priced food served with love in a historic neighborhood. Breakfast burritos (2) or bowls are hot off the grill, wrapped for takeaway or outdoor covered seating. Nice murals are splashed about, I think some were done by local artist Danny Martin who is a legend. Either way. Go there now! Actually they close at 12:00 noon so wait until tomorrow. You will be hooked! read more

I love local coffee shops and whenever I travel, I try to find 'the best' spots. In all of my travels, Barista Del Barrio ranks as one of the best. Yes, there will be a line. Are you two years old? If not, I think you can deal with it. Good things come to those that wait, after all. If you aren't local, yes, you may need to ask what the drinks are. We went two days in a row because they shut down for the holidays; the cashier remembered us! Considering how busy the place is, I thought that was nice customer service. read more

I have been wanting to come back to Barista Del Barrio since the first time I had it two years ago. I have heard nothing but good things about their breakfast burritos and I knew I had to try them. I finally had the chance to come here a couple days ago and I loved it. We came early on Friday morning and there were already people in line, but the like usual the line moved fast. My brother and I decided to split the chorizo burrito, which we ordered without potatoes. I love how all the burritos come with two half burritos wrapped individually. It makes it much easier to share or save for later. The chorizo in the burrito definitely had a kick to it, but it was enjoyable! Since the last time I came here they have added more to their outdoor section. There are now yard games and plenty of seating that is tucked away. I will definitely be back again! read more

Barista Del Barrio - Chorizo Burrito (no potatoes) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I went to their 6th & Tucson location a few days ago, but when I got there around 11 am they had already closed the kitchen (to make the space ready for Borderlands Brewing, with whom they share the space), so I didn't get to try the breakfast burritos people rave about. This morning (Monday) I rode my bike over there only to be told they are closed on Mondays. HUH?? I understand many restaurants are closed on Mondays, but I've never encountered a coffee/breakfast place which was. If these people want this location to be a success they need to get on the ball. With Sonoran House across the street and Yellow Brick 6 blocks away they have plenty of competition. A re-evaluation of their opening hours is needed. If they have to close their kitchen at 11 they shouldn't say they are open until 12. Many people stop for coffee/breakfast on their way to work. Not opening until 8 am means you lose that potential business....and do you think people don't stop for their daily dose on Monday or Tuesday? Wake up! read more

I've been wanting to finally try this locally owned family spot and it lived up to everything I've heard and we are now regulars. As we walked up to the window we noticed all the welcoming touches like a beautiful Danny Martin mural, hand painted signs, and plenty of spaces to sit outside and enjoy the sensational food. It was busy but, super fast. We ordered at the window and service was excellent. My husband and I both wanted the breakfast sausage and egg burrito. And it was delicious. An ideal combo of eggs and meat. It also came with 2 per order, which was a great amount. Since I eat super hot, fiery salsa, theirs was excellent! Just the right amount of heat. Our order didn't take that long and in the meantime I checked out their small market, which had some cute local artist merchandise and premade frozen food you could purchase. To drink I ordered the horchata latte because it was so unique. It was also a great choice. Barista Del Barrio is really delicious. Highly recommend. read more
