    The seasonal salad with chicken is one of my go to lunches to grab when I'm in the area. It's honestly one of the best salads I've had in all of Tucson. The dressing is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I love the addition of sweet potatoes, and my favorite salad base, arugula. Service is friendly on the phone and when I pick up and it's always ready in 10-15 minutes.

    Fabulous restaurant still hits it out of the park for me. And today I learned that you can ask for a half order so you can try several options when you're undecided! How great is that? Prep and Pastry is known for their GENEROUS servings and the option to try 2 or 3 selections in half portions is a great way to save calories, leftovers requiring multiple take home containers, and face when your dining companions observe glutinous portions! Sat on the patio which was bustling but surprisingly quiet. Food is delicious no matter what you order. A lovely start to the weekend. Love this place!

    *Smoked Salmon Beni

    Cute ambiance, great service and yummy food! I probably wouldn't get the salmon Beni again but would definitely get the banana cream pastries and that yummy coffee. The prep potato's are definitely a must as well!

    I drove by shortly after they opened and it wasn't busy, so I stopped in for breakfast. I love the atmosphere of this place. It's beautifully decorated and very bright and airy. The waitress was great. I didn't catch her name, but she took good care of me. I ordered the Rose Vanilla Chai and the Blueberry Yogurt Bowl. The chai wasn't my favorite. I usually prefer a more full bodied, spicy chai. The rose and vanilla flavoring was nice, but it's probably not something I would order again. The yogurt bowl portion size was huge, and their granola is delicious. It started to get pretty busy and a bit loud, but overall it was a nice start to the day. The baked treats case looked amazing, but I was trying to be good, so I kept moving. All in all, it was a nice breakfast experience, and I always appreciate having good restaurants in the neighborhood.

    A cute and bright spot for a brunch crew of any size! If you do stop in, make sure to get an omelette; they steal the show. Honestly, the potatoes that come with the omelette steal the show. They're fluffy and crispy and perfectly seasoned!! The pastries also lived up to expectations. Definitely richer than most but yummy. Unfortunately, the french toast was just okay. It didn't miss the mark, more like just grazed it. A bit too dry, with scant berries, but seasoned well. The coffees I would not get again, particularly the hot one. Very watery and I'm not even sure if it was fresh. And yet, this place is still worth it. The omelettes and potatoes carry the rest to a pretty satisfying finish!

    Visited Prep & Pastry for Easter Brunch today. Prep & Pastry continues to bring consistently good food and excellent ambiance to the Tucson Brunch scene. While busy, the staff was well prepared for the Easter onslaught. Service was prompt, friendly and efficient. My dining partner and I started out with Mimosa's (because, brunch!), The Cure for me and Fuzzy Navel Mimosa for herself. I got the Southwest Croissant Breakfast Sandwich and partner got the Monte Cristo. We both got the breakfast potatoes on the side. All good incredibly tasty. The restaurant had plenty of house made pastries available for nibbles. Thanks Prep & Pastry for a wonderful meal and great quality over the years.

    *Steak & Egg Sandwich
    Kathryn W.

    I was near by shopping and decided to treat myself at this location which I am not often near. It was a weekend so a little busy but I still managed to find parking in their spacious lot and a seat at the bar (which I prefer as a party of one ). I had excellent service, very friendly and attentive. I took her recommendation for the mango mimosa and steak and egg sandwich and was not disappointed with either. Also Preps potato's are always on point so crispy but soft on the inside. I was glad they still had some pastries which is half the reason I come and couldn't resist taking two home which were birth delicious! Overall a great visit to this location !

    *Smoked Salmon Hash
    Hannah H.

    I haven't been in years and this visit was just as good as I remembered! There are lots of gluten friendly options and seasonal ones. I had the smoked salmon bowl and rose chai. Both were amazing and I'm still thinking of both. I already can't wait to go back. The potatoes were perfectly crispy and tasted better than I remembered. I also tried their gluten sensitive raspberry donut and it was the best gluten free donut I've tried. Service was fantastic! Our waitress was very on top of it for a busy Sunday morning. The only downside was the parking situation.

    Very tasty food (Sticky Pecan Roll and Simple Breakfast w/Bacon) in a comfortable environment with good background music (e.g. Van Morrison, Etta James, Corrine Bailey Raand Jack Johnson) and friendly service.

    The best spot for brunch! The staff is always super nice and the food is great! I also love the outdoor patio

    We like to treat ourselves a few times a year and order takeout brunch, and have never regretted choosing either location of prep and pastry. This time, we went savory and got the juicy, loaded steak sandwich with to-die-for potatoes and the eggs Benedict. For a pick up order, they were fast and piping hot! Everything we've tried screams indulgence and quality, from the buttered toasted sourdough on sandwiches to the details of chai butter and rotating specialty coffee drinks, chai and matcha. You have customers for life!

    Went for breakfast, expected to be busier than it was but worked in our favor. Cinnamon rolls were huge. Server was friendly, she split our dishes for us. We had biscuits and gravy with fried chicken and smoked salmon hash, very good. Place is a bit too loud, when full might too difficult to hear.

    Trevor C.

    This place has a great menu with so many wonderful dishes to choose from, and the pastries are absolutely amazing. The atmosphere is clean, comfortable, and welcoming with lots of seating available. The service really stood out--friendly, helpful, and efficient. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or spending some time here, it's a great experience.

Don't tell your mom or grandma, but these are probably the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had in my life! The classic cinnamon roll will be a must purchase every time I visit from here on out. May have gone a little overboard trying the seasonal flavors, but when in Rome right?! Sampled the Blueberry Muffin, Banana Pudding, Peach Cobbler, and Biscoff Cookie rolls as well, which were all delicious. They are tender, fluffy, and buttery! Was expecting blueberry and banana to be my favorite seasonal ones, but the Biscoff Cookie stole the show! Given the size and sweetness, think I'll be getting one classic and one seasonal from here on out. The inside of the bakery is also super cute and Christa, the owner, is just as sweet as her baked goods! Also worth noting I brought my pup along to get our order and there were no issues having her. One thing to be aware of - get there early and be prepared to wait. We arrived right at 10 AM when they opened and wait about 20 minutes, which wasn't a problem at all. Definitely err on the side of caution and arrive early to avoid long waits or select flavors running out though. Overall, Chez Peachy is definitely worth the hype and somewhere I look forward to check out from time to time and around the holidays or when guests are in town!

    First visit today after seeing the video of banana cinnamon roll about a week ago. Arrived about 20…read moreminutes before opening and were about 4th in line. Lots of other nice people hanging out. The space has a really nice feel to it and very much appreciate the awesome misters and fans. Doors opened promptly at 10am with Peachy coming out to say hi. Had a bit of a visit to Wonka factory feel to me. Made it into the ordering area quickly and the inside is beautifully decorated. Floral accents everywhere in pink and even icing piping on the display case. Very cool vibe. Nobody was rushed and service was efficient and friendly. We got the banana and a carrot cake for my wife and I. Friends got another banana, a classic, and a biscoff. We shared them all. My favorite were the classic and the banana. All of them have the base cinnamon roll which is fantastic. Light, fluffy, soft, amazingness. All the flavors are so well done. I tend to not love things overly sweet and these were excellent. Don't sweat which one you choose, you can't go wrong. For what it is worth there was a line for about an hour but it moves. Got pretty small again by around 11am. Peachy, I love what you are doing and look forward to coming back. One request..... can you sell some bottles of milk? Your stuff just cries for a moo juice pairing. If not, no big deal. I know to bring my own now.

You order your pies and take them to go. There is no seating. The girl working the counter was fantastic. She was friendly and helped answer my questions. They have a selection of pies, from fruit and cream to pot pies. They are all decently sized "mini" pies for $7.99. Plus if you return 10 pie tins you get a free pie. I ordered the Kahlua cream cheese and a strawberry margarita. In true fashion of wanting to try both I took a quarter of each. This was a lot of pie! I should have only tried one per night. The flavors are good and blend together beautifully that it isn't too terribly rich or tart. These are a fun treat to have as I don't have pie often. There are other flavors I will definitely be trying in the future.
