    Had breakfast one morning while in town. A popular spot, very busy with only morning hours. Closes at 2pm. We grabbed a booth walking in and a server brought us menus. Old school diner style with a wall of booths and a short bar with stools. We gave the menu a good once over, its extensive so just about any tastebuds are covered here. Eggs numerous ways, breakfast burritos, pancakes and such, biscuits and gravy. I had an omelette with hash browns and rye toast. Pretty straight forward, the omelette was big and good, the hash browns crispy and plentiful, the rye toast was served buttered and was okay. All in in, a decent enough breakfast place. It met our needs and served its purpose. 3.5 Stars rounded up for our kind server 01160

    Convenient location, easy parking. Ambiance/Cleanliness-Room is a depressing box. Pretty sure nobody comes here for the ambiance. Every DMV i have ever been to was more welcoming. Clean enough...2 stars. Service-perfection. Got everything I needed, service with a smile. 5 stars Food. I got the Reuben. It was on point, decent meat, good flavor and a side of tasty coleslaw. 4 stars. I would absolutely go back.

    Such an excellent service breakfast lunch cafe in Northwest Tucson area, ordering a freshly California Omelette and coffee!!! Avocados were so fresh and grilled cheese omelette was right on with home fried potatoes... what a full meal with toasts jams and coffee with French vanilla cream!!! It's pack on weekdays morning, a mom n pops small home café!!

    Cappy's Special Breakfast

    Your typical diner ( breakfast and lunch) but with options for some Mexican food options and really nice service. The chicken fried steak (beef) was huge and breaded just right. Cappy's special breakfast comes with 3 different proteins and eggs cooked your way (plus hash browns). My favorite however were their pancakes ....yummy! Small area and so not a lot of seating but they are quick with bringing out your food and so table turnover is pretty good. Ample parking available.

    Breakfast special

    A nice affordable choice for this area that doesn't have a lot of sit down breakfast places. We were able to go in and get seated right away. The food was really reasonably priced and very generous. No one left hungry, for sure. It took a few minutes before any checked on us but once we got going everyone was very attentive, checking back to see if we needed anything and making sure our drinks were topped off. There were so many things to choose from from the menu, I'll definitely be going back to try more things. You can order from either the breakfast or lunch menu at any time. Definitely worth visiting. One call out, for anyone looking for liver on a menu, they have it here. I know that can be hard to find so I wanted to make sure I mentioned it.

    French toast platter

    Beautiful people, beautiful plate, beautiful service. I really enjoyed my time here! The food was delicious and quickly served. We didn't have to wait long at all for our meals, and even if we did it would have been worth it! Amazing 10/10!

    Huge omelette

    Call me a fan, call me fat & happy, call me for breakfast! We tried Cappy's for breakfast yesterday on a whim and boy are we glad we did! Cute, little place in a strip mall on Prince - the place is kind of nondescript but I'm just fine with that. We were told to sit anywhere so we chose a comfy booth and were waited on promptly and given nice, hot coffee. My guy likes flavored creamer so when our server asked if we wanted some and responded positively, she brought out the big ole pump container and left it at the table, LOL. My guy and I did create your own omelettes. I had green chile, cheese and sausage in mine - topped with avocado. It was perfection - and HUGE. I selected biscuits and gravy as my side which I really didn't eat but my husband sampled it. He did a create your own as well but I don't remember what his was made of but will tell you that he loved it. He had toast, hash browns and bacon with his meal. Everything was really good and the service was impeccable. Prices were great to boot.

    Huevos Rancheros, Chicken Fried Steak, hash browns & toast
    Jan B.

    This place was great! Breakfast & lunch served all day. Food was outstanding, hot & the price was good. Hubby had the chicken fried steak with hash browns & raisin toast. Also could have chosen biscuits and gravy or pancakes. I had the Huevos Rancheros with refried beans & tortilla. It was all sooo delicious!! Staff was friendly too. Highly recommend!

    The food is delicious and they give you a lot I had the Fried Chicken and my sister had the Cappy breakfast special. Make sure you visit this place

    Excellent example of a diner. Extensive menu, good food, and really good table service. They have it going. I'm sure I met the owner; how do I know? She was as happy as can be. Clean bathroom thanks for that. At 1130 on a Saturday we had to wait but the tables turn quickly. Visit when you're in the area.

This time ordered the Simply Eggy Breakfast. The marmalade was unique and the eggs were perfectly poached. The portions are standard, so there will likely be no leftovers. For the portions though, I would say the price is a little on the higher end. To finish my friend got a tahini brownie on the way out and we found it to be very pleasant and not overly sweet. I would love to try their coffees and teas!

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. 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. 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:) 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!!!

I wouldn't say that it is top of the line cooking, but it is very delicious and definitely worth a visit this side of town. Parking can be a little challenging, they do share a parking lot with other businesses, but close in, there are not that many spots. Service is always friendly and makes you feel comfortable. Interesting atmosphere with flamingos galore and other things decorating the inside. Gives it somewhat of a party and fun feel. Food comes out in a timely manner even when they are very busy. Prices are reasonable. Give it a try, I think you'll like it. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

    Teaspoon is one of the best overall restaurants in Tucson…read more I've been here a few times over the last year or so. It has never disappointed in service, quality or taste. (well once in taste, but I'll get to that) They have great in-house made items. Like the Challa bread, the preserves, their pesto. They most certainly know what they're doing. I had unseasoned filet mignon once, I believe it was the omelette. I talked to the manager. Now I wasnt upset, didn't send it back, I just told them what I experienced and mused that I found it odd the cook forgot a simple thing like salt. The manager acknowledged my complaint and that was all; or at least I was fine. Nope, she came back with a to-go box of croissants topped with cream and berries as an apology. They were tremendous by the way. She didn't have to do that. The ambiance is it's only weak point, but even that is minor. Simple black is fine. It's modern feeling and doesn't stand out loudly. They have outdoor seating, which early in the morning is fine, but id avoid in the summer, which will likely mean you'll be waiting, depending on the time. Oh! I forgot to mention, they have very good drinks. They really are intentional about the blend of flavors, they have a little something for everyone. All in all, I cannot recommend this place enough. It's been a shining star amongst Tucson restaurants and I am grateful they exist. Even to how they organize their menu partly by flavor profiles shows they genuinely LOVE food. I love food too, and I love here. Try this place. Today.

Pancakes, german pancakes, french toast, eggs benedict(s) monte cristo, omelets, croque madame, country chicken with biscuits and sausage gravy, chilaquiles con pollo, avocado toast, savory crepe, and even a breakfast pizza. Oh and they offer a few skillet options too-southwest, loaded baked potato, and sausage and peppers skillet. So many options!! I can't speak too much for lunch but I did see burgers on the menu. Not too helpful in that arena sorry. The eggs Benedict with ham was awesome. Side of potatoes with a bit of all seasoning and a side salad with awesome light dressing comes with it. The dutch baby was also great. A german pancake served savory with sausage. Huge portion. Come check this place out and make sure if you don't want to wait you call in advance when driving there and ask to get on their "wait list" you may not be able to get a reservation but you can do this. You're welcome.

We came during May, when it starts to get warm, but he did well since there is a good amount of shade out on their patio and they provided a nice big water bowl for our special boy. 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!
