We’re not really into blanket statements, but really, who doesn’t love brunch (especially when it comes with a free shared dessert through September 30)?
Tohono Chul Garden Bistro understands this fact well. From 8 a.m. – 3 p.m. during August, and extending to 4:30 p.m. during the months that follow, it’s daily brunching.
If you’re somewhat indecisive on when or what to eat, or maybe you planned it this way, the Garden Bistro is the perfect setting as they serve up hand-crafted cocktails, local drafts on tap, bottomless prickly pear margaritas and mimosas, and great, regional eats. And with one of the most amazing patios in Tucson – surrounded by Tohono Chul’s acres of gardens, abundant with hummingbirds and butterflies – you’re in for a real experience of a meal.
For $14, the brunch offers bottomless margaritas and mimosas with a purchase of any entrée. Also, if you’re eating with some great company, a free shared dessert is on the house with a purchase two entrées.
