Short & Sweet Comfy, art-filled café on 4th Ave, perfect for a bite, local vibes, and supporting the community. Brewing coffee and connection in Tucson’s heart. Longer Musings Café Maggie’s on 4th Ave is the kind of coffee shop that fits you like an old pair of denim—comfortable, worn-in, and ready for all the possibilities. Nestled just steps from the 4th Ave Streetcar and close to the University of Arizona, it’s got an effortless artsy vibe that just is what it’s meant to be—an authentic local spot. Inside, rotating local art fills the walls, community event flyers are tucked along the windows, and a mutual aid water station outside speaks to the café’s dedication to supporting neighbors. It’s the kind of space where chance meetings birth creative change, where ideas flow as easily as the coffee, and revolutionary conversations stoke impassioned visions for tomorrow. You’ll find me here on sunny afternoons with my favorite drink, an extra dirty hot chai latte- perfection! ☕️ 🥧 Their menu has something for everyone, whether you’re vegan, gluten-free, have restrictions, or simply curious. Today I had the avocado toast and was pleasantly surprised to find they kept it simple and let the flavors speak for themselves! Not sure what to order? Just ask—the staff is as welcoming as the space itself. With seating inside and out, nearby metered parking, and convenient options to pay with cash, card, or tap, Café Maggie’s makes grabbing a coffee or meal here easy. And don’t miss the people-watching! Located near the University and in the heart of historic 4th Ave, it’s perfect for a quick escape, gathering with friends, or just being in the moment.

I love La Indita. I give them 5 stars! They are like family to me and I feel like I am sitting at the family table when I am eating there. I had my first date with my spouse of 31 years. In fact they catered my wedding! They are good and try to accommodate for gluten-free needs, they are VERY informative about their foods when asked, and I have to tell you their flautas with dipping sauces are the greatest. I am a huge fan of their soups and often get their soups. I love their tacos and mushroom taco is a fav, however, their carne seca taco is fabulous! Their food is homemade and they follow the recipes of their family handed down generation to generation, and it shows. This is a must when you have out of town guests. I love this place.
