    Hands down, Epic has the best vegan granola bars. I've been trying to re-create these for years but nothing compares! They have blueberry, cranberry-orange chocolate, date and my favorite, strawberry.

    Possibly the best espresso drinks I've ever had. The food is delicious the ambience upbeat and staff efficient and for the most part friendly! Epic has often been my home away from home.

    I don't what happened to previous tips I left...but the cous cous (toasted slivered almonds, craisins, steamed milk) is very satisfying. I've been getting it here since 1997.

    I doubt you can find a better scone than the ones they make here. I dare you to try them.

    Well I wouldn't call it awesome. But its a place to grab a decent cup of coffee, or latte, whatever. Old furniture and chicks with tattoos. One of those places that make Tucson, Tucson. Read more

    They don’t sell bag of loose leaf anymore like they used to... I guess different management and now that this place is for sale... 🤔
