The same year the film “Clueless” made its debut alongside “Gangsta’s Paradise” by Coolio and TLC’s “Waterfalls,” Bison Witches Bar and Deli opened its doors at 326 N. Fourth Ave. In 1995, the restaurant’s jumbo bread bowls and sandwiches hit the local scene while Brad Pitt reeled in People Magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” mention.
What a year!
Now, the Fourth Avenue sandwich shop is ready to celebrate its 30th anniversary on Tuesday, January 7.
Throughout the day, the Bison Witches crew will be offering $5 draft beers, $3 seltzers, and $1 Jell-O shots. Also, they’ll take an additional 30% off your entire bill!
“Thank you to our loyal customers for the last 30 years,” the team shared. “Cheers to 30 more!”
With over 20 made-to-order sandwich options, Bison Witches’ menu is a good one to have in your late-night arsenal — one of the few local restaurants serving food after 10 p.m.
Also, there’s a daily Happy Hour from 3 – 7 p.m.
The Tucson location was the first Bison Witches to open in the mid-90s. At one point in time, the restaurant expanded up to Tempe on Mill Avenue but that location has since closed.
However, if you’re up for a road trip, there are still two other Bison Witches locations in Lincoln, Nebraska, and Norman, Oklahoma.
Bison Witches is located at 326 N. Fourth Ave. For more information, visit bisonwitchestucson.com and follow Bison Witches on Instagram.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
