    Chicken and biscuits smothered in gravy.
    Nate N.

    Tourist Home Cafe absolutely lives up to the hype. This breakfast spot was INCREDIBLE from start to finish. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and the outdoor area is especially impressive. They have what looked like a private dining space inside a barn-style shed, several gas fire pits, and even a slightly elevated platform that looked perfect for live music. Ordering is simple -- you place both food and drink orders at the counter, then they bring everything out to your table. Even though the place was busy, the food came out fast and piping hot. The food itself was outstanding. I ordered the chicken and biscuits and my wife got the chilaquiles. Both portions were huge. The chicken and biscuits were exactly what I was hoping for: smothered in rich country gravy with a perfectly fried flattened chicken breast that was crispy on the outside and juicy inside. The buttermilk biscuit was golden, flaky, buttery, and had the perfect balance of soft interior and crisp edges. I honestly got full halfway through my plate and never even got a chance to try the wife's chilaquiles. The drip coffee was excellent too -- simple, hot, and exactly what good breakfast coffee should be. There's street parking along with a small parking lot across the street. Easily one of the best breakfast spots we've been to.

    This place is one of my new Flagstaff faves. Coffee is fresh and delish. Pancakes have a custardy middle with crispy edges and the syrup is like melted butterscotch! I got the ranchero which was bomb. My husband got the chilaquiles which was also amazing. The chips in the chilaquiles are definitely made from scratch because they stayed thick and crunchy even with a bunch of sauce. My sister got the BLT with turkey...the garlic aioli is to die for. Everything is just so fresh and high quality. The staff are extremely friendly and willing to answer questions about the menu. Seating can be tight so I'd arrive before 11am on the weekends. 10/10 brunch...I would travel out of my way for this place.

    Great staff, very friendly and helpful/attentive. Indoor and outdoor seating areas, lots of it. One of the only breakfast places we could find that wasn't charging $22 dollars for a breakfast sandwich..we got the yogurt bowl, quiche of day, and carne asada bowl. Favorite was the carne asada bowl, the flavor was phenomenal and everything including the mean and eggs were cooked perfectly. Yogurt bowl was also fantastic, homemade granola was perfect. The quiche was ok, the egg texture a little more egg-bite-like and less of that soft quiche texture. Definitely would return!

    Family and I (group of 8) recently grabbed breakfast at Tourist Home Flagstaff Café. It was the day after NAU graduation (Saturday), and we were pleasantly surprised to find plenty of outdoor seating (probably a little result of too much celebrating the night prior). We had placed our orders inside and were sent away with a number on a stand for our table. The gal that waited on us was very patient and uber-friendly taking our orders - luckily there was no one behind us and she took the time to answer all of our questions. I feel like we'd only been seated just a hot second when the food arrived! Fabulous service - quick and friendly and always with a smile. Hubby and I each got a cup of fresh brewed coffee that did not disappoint! Not too weak, not too strong... brewed to perfection! My husband ordered the chicken and biscuit and I the chilaquiles Christmas style. Lord have mercy both of these dishes were the bomb! Not only plenty of food but super tasty - I had my chilaquiles with scrambled eggs and they also came with about 1/2 a freshly sliced avocado. Nice, tangy flavor and sprinkled with just the right amount of cotija cheese! Shared with the table and still had leftovers (and I'm not mad about it). Husband's dish was perfection - the perfect biscuit combo - fluffy, chewy and crunchy in all the right places, and the gravy not overly seasoned or salty. Chicken was a breaded/fried (possibly baked) and cooked/seasoned just right. Inner meat was tender and moist and outside of course was crunchy - batter was well seasoned and breast didn't seem greasy at all. I worked in a mom-and-pop coffee shop decades ago - everything was homemade and fresh and the coffee 2 die 4. This establishment brought me back to those times in regard to coffee/food quality and hospitality! Will 100p be returning when next we're in town!

    We've kind of avoided this place only because of the name, but I'm glad we decided to go. Breakfast menu had a lot of great options, including some gluten-free choices. The coffee was great, I had an Americano and the wife had a Chi with a shot of espresso. The place is laid out well and spaces including a nice outdoor area. Everyone we came in contact with from the front counter to the barista were very pleasant. Make sure to check out their Specials board for some off the menu options. We had some poblano soup which was flavorful and smooth. When we returned. This weekend we are going to grab some French toast and a few other delicious items. It's important to note that the weekends are super busy but as long as you have no where else to be than you should be fine. You will run into a few out of town visitors which can be cool for conversation.

    This is a cute little place in downtown flagstaff. The patio is about the coolest space I've seen! I have the granola bowl and my husband had some pastries. Everything was high quality and delicious. Our only thought was that the price was high for what was received.

    Nice patio area dog friendly
    Elaine R.

    Great find! Thanks Yelpers! Enjoyed everything food n Drinks. Drip coffee was weak was the only complaint. Loved the Biscuits n Gravy with fried chicken. They had hot sauces and it went well with the Arizona Gunslinger Jalapeno Pepper Sauce. The tomato bisque was nice n thick with tomatoes and almost butter cream taste. Went well with the grilled cheese (added bacon). SIL enjoyed her Hash Bowl as it used yams with chimichurri sauce. The Chai Whiskey was amazing! Orange juice tasted freshly squeezed. Enjoyed my brown sugar cinnamon latte (not on menu). Large patio for dog friendly. They even have dog bowls. Need to go to counter to order n pay and they give you a number to your table. Highly recommend to stop here if your are in Flagstaff! Friendly staff!

    Do they serve alcohol?

    Yes. They have a shandy shack outside with beer kegs on tap. I also saw people drinking bloody marys and they were told that alcohol needed to remain on the premises.

    Are any items GF?

    Well, they do have eggs and omelets. And lots of yummy breakfast plates. They serve most things with a " nine grain bread." I do not recall any baked goods/ or items on the… 

    Are reservations accepted?

    Tourist Home does not offer reservations. We seat folks on a first come first seated basis and always do the best we can to accomodate our guests in a timely manner. Please feel free to call ahead to see if we have a wait time. (928) 779-2811

    Are dogs allowed on the patio?

    They have a patio where dogs are allowed. As a matter of fact when I was there a woman and her dog was eating as it snowed. They were quite comfortable. I hope this helps

    Do you have gluten free options?

    Yes, we have many menu items that are gluten free or can be adapted to be gluten free. We offer Canyon Bakehouse GF bread as an option for our toast/sandwiches. Additionally, we have gluten free pastries! Please feel free to call us at the…

Somewhere along the line, we missed the boat. I ordered the Lumberyard mac & cheese and added pulled chicken and roasted poblanos. My goodness it was a lot of food. The mac & cheese was good, not southern good, but still good. The poblanos were a perfect addition but the chicken was drowned in a cloyingly sweet BBQ sauce. I definitely wouldn't order the chicken again. The hubs had the Santa Maria tri tip. The meat was tough. Quite a few pieces too tough to even chew. Luckily, my meal was huge so he had that to fill up on. I saw the 32 oz cocktails and the former party girl in me immediately kicked in. I think my husband saw the look in my eyes. Maybe the aura around me and put a kabosh on it immediately. I ended up with a 16 oz, still large but that inner 22 years old was disappointed. 32 oz and you should be stumbling down San Fransisco. 16 oz should have at least brought a big 'ol grin. But alas, I couldn't even taste the alcohol. That inner party girl didn't let out that big 'ol grin. (That's ok. The tolerance of 22 year old me has faded through the years). Enough digression, would we come back? Yes, I think it's worth a second shot. We would, however, try something different.

Hospitality matters to me just as much as what's on the plate because great restaurants don't just serve meals; they create memories. Unfortunately, Shift became one I'll never forget for the wrong reasons. Our day couldn't have been further from what the staff assumed. We spent the morning hiking, went back to rest, explored a local bookstore, grabbed ice cream, and walked to our dinner reservation. Not one alcoholic drink had been consumed by anyone in our group the entire day. Not one. We also had a child with us. The only conversation we had with the host before being seated was asking whether it was okay that we had arrived about twenty minutes early for our reservation. We were polite, excited, and looking forward to dinner. Then my husband ordered a beer. The waitress immediately refused because she claimed the hostess believed my husbands speech and mannerisms meant he was intoxicated. Read that again. A guest who had consumed zero alcohol all day was judged to be intoxicated. I understand the responsibility restaurants have. If someone is genuinely impaired, absolutely don't serve them. Every responsible restaurant should protect its guests and its liquor license. But there is an equally important responsibility that seems to have been forgotten: making sure your judgment is actually right before labeling someone. There was no bar crawl. No cocktails beforehand. No wine tasting. No brewery stop. No hidden drinks. There wasn't even one drink. We left feeling embarrassed, confused, and honestly caught off guard. Not because a beer was refused, but because a person was reduced to an assumption based solely on how they naturally presented themselves. Here's what makes the experience even harder to understand. After leaving Shift, we walked to Atria, where we remained for approximately two hours. We talked, enjoyed ourselves, and spent the evening there without issue. If someone in our party had truly been intoxicated wouldn't that have been obvious there as well? It wasn't. Food can be good. Cocktails can be creative. Service can be polished. None of that matters if hospitality disappears the moment someone doesn't fit your expectation of what a guest "should" look or sound like. Maybe perhaps because we weren't locals we seemed off ? To anyone considering Shift, especially if you're traveling with someone whose speech, mannerisms, or disability could be misunderstood, know that this was our experience. I hope the restaurant reflects on what happened and asks itself a difficult question: How many guests have we mistaken for being intoxicated when, in reality, they simply communicated differently? Because that's not just a missed beer. That's a missed opportunity to treat someone with dignity. I came to Flagstaff excited to discover one of its most " creative" restaurants. Instead, I left wondering how quickly a restaurant built on hospitality could make a guest feel so unwelcome. Simply , because my husband is a restaurant manager in Las Vegas, who has managed restaurants like Yellowtail, Herbs&Rye, Gjelina, and Edo we left out of respect for the industry. However, we should have got our deposit automatically refunded. Next time, take the time. Take the time to care. If a staff member is under this assumption, management intervene not to just follow said assumption and repeat what she said, but to hold an actual conversation with your guest, to evaluate , to observe, to understand. I promise you, that would change so many things for you.

This restaurant is AN EXPERIENCE. The servers were fantastic, attentive, enthusiastic, and clearly talented. Shout-out to the waiter who looked like Mandy Patinkin (minus the mullet). That man was truly giving it his all! The performances were so much fun and definitely the reason to come here. My only performance critique is that I wish the soprano singers had microphones during the group numbers. There were some STRONG tenor belters nearby, so it was sometimes hard to hear the women, but they still did a great job. Now, the food... oof. This is where things fell apart. Everything seemed to be either overcooked or runny. The salmon was burnt, the calamari was crispy beyond recognition, and the fettuccine Alfredo was so runny it was basically pasta soup. It also took forever for our food to arrive. Maybe that's part of the strategy so you have more time to enjoy the show? Ironically, the best meal at the table was my 8-year-old's burger, and honestly, her kids portion was incredible. She definitely won the dinner lottery. I think Black Bart's is a once-on-a-Flagstaff-visit experience. The entertainment is unique, the servers make it fun, and there's really nothing else quite like it. But with the prices and the quality of the food on our visit, I don't think we'll be rushing back. Sorry, Black Bart's. I still love you, but we need to work on that cookin'!
