The Cup CafeMusic too loudWhile the food was excellent, the music in the dining room was too loud, making want to leave the restaurant as soon as possible.6/9/2013 12:00:00 AMOur fave for Tucson brkfst/brunchGreat casual atmosphere with friendly staff and guests. When we travel to Tucson we always meet our friends there and bring our cat along too. She is always welcomed by the staff and other guests. The breakfast menu is great, and I imagine eating there at other times would be equally good.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Cup Cafe is always a funThe Cup Cafe is always a fun experience. The food is great, and the service usually excellent. The period decor in this historic hotel location across from the restored train station is fun and funky. Not to be missed on a visit to Tucson, although the locals also frequent this downtown gem.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMserviceThe server seemed to forget we were in his section. 20 minutes to order and after WE were done eating it took 30 minutes to get the bill.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect from start to finishThis was the best meal of my recent trip to Tucson! The fish tacos are absolutely perfect. Everything was very flavorful -- kept eating "one more bite" of the tamales despite being stuffed. Sitting on the patio made for very fun ambiance. If I lived there I would eat there every weekend.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Downtown Spot ...We were a party of 8 gathering for a Goodbye Lunch for a co-worker. Easily made my reservation (and later changing it) through Open Table which worked out great. When we arrived our Reserved table was still partially occupied but they quickly got us set up at another table without skipping a beat. The food was very good, loved the variety of the menu choices -- hearty sandwiches, great looking salads, and a couple of specials made the meal choices hard. But gave us ideas for our next visit! I would definitely recommend the Cup for any kind of gathering.4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Cup never disappointsThe Cup never disappoints. Excellent downtown ambience, fine food, great service, and possibly the best martinis in Tucson (although Blue Point, Wildflower, and Sullivan's also make excellent martinis).4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a great first experienceWe had a great first experience here. The food was excellent, and our server Celeste was excellent. We ate here before going to a concert at the Fox. I loved that there was a great variety of clientele.

We loved it. Our dinner was wonderful and our server Celeste was totally helpful and attentive. Great cocktail, albeit a bit pricey, however the food was affordable and notably gourmet. We cannot wait to return. My birthday is in June, so look out.4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat for outdoor dining.Great for outdoor dining. Inside was very noisy.

Greg did a nice job suggesting excellent food options.3/24/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent food, excellentExcellent food, excellent service, tucked into the revitalizing downtown Tucson area with great funk to span the decades that the Hotel Congress has been around. Hearty helpings, good looking desserts but alas no room at the end.3/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWe took friends from CanadaWe took friends from Canada to the Cup for dinner and they were very impressed by the food, the ambience and the service. We had a really good evening, the food and service were great as usual. My husband and I regularly eat at the Cup Cafe and are always happy with the experience. We have taken several friends there as well, and we have never had a bad experience and our friends have always been very favorably impressed.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMWe ate there before the theater.We ate there before the theater. We were seated on the beautiful patio and had great service from Miranda. Our meal was fantastic. When we arrived at the theater I discovered I had left my money clip on the table, with cash, drivers lic and credit card. I reached for my phone to call them but I had a message already from them telling me they had found my money clip and that it was in the managers office. After the theater we returned and the money clip was returned to me, with everything there. Special thanks to the staff for their honesty and follow up in trying to reach me.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Cup is the BestWe LOVE The Cup! It is always a no fail. excellent experience in every aspect. We eat there at least once a week and have never been disappointed in the food or the service. The price is in keeping with the quality.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AM
