Suzy is so sweet! She is very personable and kind. I think she works here alone, but I did see a different lady here once. She gets her baked goods from local small businesses, which is a great way to find out about them! She also offers a 50¢ discount if you bring your own cup to help promote sustainable choices! It’s the perfect treat to get you through the workday, or just as a little pick-me-up if you happen to stop by.

Tucson Coffee Cricket is hands-down my FAVORITE coffee in Tucson! The staff are super friendly, the pastries from local bakers are to die for, and their drinks are always incredible. The Ube Latte is my favorite, but you could hand me any drink from them and I'd be happy! They're also very consistent. It's frustrating to go somewhere and have your drink turn out different every time. But at Coffee Cricket, their drinks are consistently perfect every time!

Nestled in the bottom of the tower building that is 5151 Broadway is a local food/coffee truck turned brick and mortar. Entering off the elevated parking garage on the north side of the building, you can see their shop just behind the main lobby, which is visible from the door. The staff is friendly and inviting, welcoming you genuinely as you walk in. What sets them apart from their competitors are their signature drinks. They have a rotating menu that changes seasonally, but they do have staples available year round. Much of their food options are sourced from local small businesses and provided fresh daily (including dairy free and/or gluten-free options) matching/pairing with their drink options . Items such as their Ube Taiwanese Crisp, which can only be described as a sweet and salty Rice Krispy Treat - made for them by Ube Bae Desserts - pairs perfectly with their ube latte. Bottom line, this is one of those small businesses that make Tucson an amazing culinary town! Definitely stop by and try one of their signature drinks!

Finally! Finally I was able to try Tucson Coffee Cricket and it was outstanding! My mom was also excited to go and the new location is a little bit obscure because they left their coffee truck but there were excellent big signs everywhere and it was easy to find. Their business is nestled towards the right of the entrance way located near some cafe tables. The menu was extensive, featuring seasonal specials, and both hot and cold drinks. We tried the Ube latte because we are big fans and it was decadent and beautiful! We split the Ube concha sprinkled with Oreo cookie dust and it was not only the striking purple color but was soft, flavorful and the filing was delicious! The cricket flour scones were sold out so we plan on heading back soon! What a fantastic addition to our local Tucson food scene!

I love this place so much. Truly delicious hand crafted bevis. They can make many of the drinks vegan. Also carry Cal's Bakeshop pastries which are vegan. Bring your cup back for reuse and get a punch card. Buy 12, one free. The best is the ube matcha. It's what I order 99% of the time bc it is pure perfection. Located in the tall office building. Parking reserved for Cricket customers. Staff is amazing. Friendly and knowledgeable

Ube latte is pretty good, too bad they were out of matcha today. The cricket flour scone was great too.

I first heard about Tucson Coffee Cricket during a Creative Mornings event about half a year ago. They recently moved into an office building pictured with my review. I ordered their iced Ube latte and I really enjoy the refreshing flavor. It’s not too overly sweet, which makes it nicely balanced out in flavor. Becca (not sure if I spelled it right) was super sweet and helpful with my order. I will be coming back. Parking is accessible as well. You just walk straight into the building and straight ahead you will see the logo of their shop.
