Mission Motor Collective

Permanently closed

This spot has closed for good. We're keeping the page around for the memories — it no longer appears in our guides or recommendations.

Mission Motor Collective opens as a curated neighborhood tap-room and workshop in central Tucson. The space features industrial-style floors, muraled walls by local tattoo artists, and a dedicated area where build-in-progress motorcycles sit alongside seating. It feels welcoming to motorbike enthusiasts and craft-beer lovers alike, offering games, open seating and a relaxed mood. The bar lists around twelve craft beers on tap with an emphasis on West-Coast IPAs, hazy brews and rotating seasonal selections. Guests commend the bottle-shop cooler shelves filled with seltzers, ciders and non-alcoholic options to complement the draft list. Weekly food trucks appear five nights a week and trivia nights on Wednesdays bring in a lively crowd.
