Over a year ago, the folks at Caps & Corks signed a lease for a sunny new watering hole going in at Sol Block (formerly Solot Plaza). Owners Ty, Elyse, Tad, and Dulce Hammett were intentional about choosing Sol Block and The Sunshine Mile as the location for their venture, The Broadway Beer & Wine Bar.
“We always thought this area needed more businesses like this,” said Elyse. “So, when the Sunshine Mile redevelopment started materializing we knew we had to get in there.”
Now, the time has finally come! After at least one soft opening experience for the team, The Broadway at 2559 E. Broadway Blvd. is hosting a Grand Opening at noon on Saturday, November 9.

Grand Opening Weekend
The Broadway, which is smack dab next to Rocco’s Little Chicago, will be the Hammett family’s second foray into the Tucson bar scene. The intention is for this new location to have its own unique feel — to be a part of the Caps & Corks family, but not a twin.
The new space has a mid-century vibe in line with the historic plaza. The footprint of The Broadway Beer & Wine Bar measures about 2500 square feet and fresh air lovers can hang out on the atrium-style covered patio.
The fridge section isn’t as large as what’s found inside Caps & Corks, but The Broadway will feature at least 30 beer taps, including a few permanent Arizona brewery taps, and a few taps of wine to enjoy by the glass.
