Exo Roast Co.

Hands down the best coffee shop in Northern Tucson. Exo Roast Co. has a great exposed brick aesthetic, a stellar staff, and some of the best desert-inspired drinks you’ll ever taste. Be sure to try their classic Mesquite or Chitlepin Cold Brew and a gluten-free cranberry scone.

They’ve just revamped their indoor co-working space and coffee bar and are now serving all locally sourced food.

Presta Coffee Roasters

A funky, cyclist-inspired cafe with a polished concrete interior. Admire the road bikes decorating the walls and enjoy their honey lavender latte or take a bag of freshly roasted beans home.

The location on 1st Avenue has plenty of parking, but there’s not much seating inside. A nice grab-and-go spot with very friendly baristas.

Cartel Coffee

A Tucson staple, Cartel Coffee has locations all across town. If you’re looking for a quiet co-working spot, try the location on Campbell. The floor-to-ceiling windows offer a nice distraction to remote computer work.

Plenty of seating and outlets!

Try the iced agave latte or a cortado. Be aware: they only serve two sizes, —a small or large. If you’re looking for a serious caffeine fix, large ices lattes come with a quad shot of espresso.
