Oracle Patio Cafe

Nice comfort food menu with fresh vegan and carnivore options. Also nice doggy menu items. Friendly "All are Welcome" service. Rustic Oracle charm with nice dog friendly shade filled back patio. Highly recommend this cafe and the market!

We stopped here for 2 cups of coffee to go. After being sent from the market area to the patio area, we were sent back to the market area to get our to-go coffees. Yay, they eventually brought them out. I added 1 sugar and 1 creamer. I take a swig. It was barely luke warm water that I think they dipped a coffee bean in for less than 30 seconds. Seriously, it was the nastiest cup of coffee I have ever had. It's COFFEE! How do you screw that up? Well, they managed. Had we not driven away before tasting I would have brought it back. BUT, I guarantee I will never return.

Such a fresh and memorable meal I had here. I loved the outdoor area. Good vibes y'all!!

This place is my favorite. If you walk in on the store side, you will be enticed by their amazing pies that are hard to resist. They also have different meals that they cook and they are fresh. The market has a lot of interesting items that are tempting to buy. Their restaurant is fantastic! Everything I've purchased there is top notch and great quality food items. I like to treat myself when I can. You won't be disappointed!

Locally owned, they seem to miss the mark on what 'should' happen here, but I appreciate the 'fresh' designed meals over the American fried options everywhere. Recommend: Not really, but not against it either. Options in Oro Valley are slim and this is why I think they could certainly improve on what 'should' happen here. Clean up the grounds...Food selection was limited, flies literally everywhere so one hand is used to eat, the other for fanning flies. Be prepared. To get to the back patio seating, you go through a chain fence and immediately seen lots of broken items on the ground. Very unappealing visually and a deterrent in relative to a quaint, eating location. Signage is poor and seating limited to outdoors. As a plus, they have a few lattice awnings over you and an attempt at a water-fall center piece with exposed wiring. Eclectic in designs, I'd offer that they improve the visuals... There is a market attached but zero communication from Wait Staff towards recommending to stop in and sole restroom is inside past the kitchenFood was tasty if not and simple flavored, certainly not amazing nor bad... Refills on Iced-Tea was a challenge and napkins even more scarce. Very minor adjustments could really make this place pop. I hope they're listening...

Ok, fresh and local food. There are not many places to eat in Oracle, so we were pleased to find this, a healthy and homemade locally-run café. It's OK quality, not great, but it was highly rated on Yelp, so we tried it. When we arrived, it was so cold, they were only using outside back patio seating, and the waitress said "I'll get a heater started for you," but she didn't and they didn't have heaters turned on for anyone. It was around $21 for a sandwich and a sparkling water. There is a mini-store/marketplace next door with fresh pies, local jars and tins of interesting products and a good selection of bottles of wine. Ok, so the food was ok, not great. But this was my big problem....they clearly don't have many non-locals in the café, because the otherwise friendly waitress blurted out (in a ridiculously slow and overly clear voice) to the three Asian friends that I was having lunch with, "Is this the first time you have eaten American food?" What a bizarre question to ask our group, they made an assumption that if someone is not white, they have never eaten American food or even stranger, that they don't live in the U.S...wow, I was kind of speechless! The awkwardness made everyone uncomfortable for our visit.Next time, I would skip the café (and these interactions) and get a sandwich from the market next door instead - probably the exact same sandwiches there, and without the weird questions and everyone freezing outside!

Twice now I've shown up to eat breakfast only to find out the cafe is closed due to the air conditioning system being broken. Location is temporarily closed. Hours are 8-3 not 7-3 as listed on Yelp. Store next door is still open. We tried calling to make sure they were open but got no answer so we thought we take our chances but sadly they were closed.

This is a cute little patio cafe located in Oracle. Patio is dog friendly. Please note- there is no indoor seating and the patio can get warm during the summer. I ordered their chicken salad and it was fresh and good. The perfect meal for warm weather. However, the real treat was the market on the other side. I got their chocolate torte and it was amazing! You can find fresh Italian desserts homemade there. You should definitely drop in if you're in town.

Amazingly sophisticated menu for such a small town miles from Tucson. Outside eating only, but in a charming and intimate setting. VERY friendly staff. Very generous portions. Their small deli is loaded with very sophisticated selections of foods: cheeses, staples, meats, wines, deserts ...

This cute little place is right off the highway and so worth the stop. In fact, it's only a half hour outside of Tucson (depending on where you live in town). We were hungry for lunch, having driven a loop over Redington Pass (you need 4-wheel drive to go that route, beware) but was I ever glad I found this cafe with its adorable patio (on Yelp). I ordered the Grinder with its house-made pickles and my guy got their filet mignon chili-both SO delicious! Homemade French bread for the Grinder that had ALL the fixings, and the corn tortilla, shredded cheese, sour cream and diced red onion were perfect with the chili. Nevermind the homemade (almost everything is in this place) Sangria and Scone of the Day. Yep, you heard right, they make a gorgeous scone every morning. This one was a cinnamon apple raisin - truly delicious. The waitress actually made the Sangria, which was refreshing and a perfect balance of fruit and wine. I loved our waitress too-so down to earth and helpful. Everything came out super fast from the kitchen. You could tell the cafe is like a well-oiled machine run by a happy family. They even sell their homemade pies, cinnamon rolls, and more in their shop at front of restaurant. I picked up a summer sausage and would've added locally grown mushrooms and steak to the mix but we didn't bring a cooler. Next time. We will be back.
