Slot Canyon Cafe — Restaurant in Tucson

Slot Canyon was okay before its closure. It wasn’t the greatest but it got the job done. Somehow they have managed to get worse with their new reopening. The coffee itself is average. The sandwiches and pastries are the saving grace. Any drink ordered outside of coffee is guaranteed to be a train wreck. Their chai latte has zero flavor - you are paying $4 for a cup of milk. There are no smoothies available yet - their machine is still “out.”

Today I ordered an earl grey latte - hot water, milk, & a tea bag in a cup. A few minutes after taking my order, the worker walked up to me and asked if I wanted milk or just the tea. I politely asked for milk, as I had ordered. Another few minutes and another worker tells me they are out of the tea bags. I told them it was fine, I would choose another one. They brought their selection over & had two different choices of earl grey available; they were trying to make my tea with English breakfast, even though that’s not what I ordered.

In the end I got my drink, though I feel that it’s pretty hard to mess up a 3 ingredient drink & a little odd that I had to answer questions every step of the way. Perhaps better training is needed for...

Probably one of the better study areas/cafes on campus. The food selection is different than most of the venues, which is reason enough to visit, but they sometimes run out before the end of the day.

It's also very close to a parking garage, which is an advantage since that garage is where the off-campus housing buses drop...

Quality is hit or miss as other have said. Order a mocha and you might get a white mocha for whatever reason. Staff are nice, but loud. They break over the normal rumble found in the cafe with idle chatter about personal things I could do without hearing. Can be very distracting. Overall okay place to take a...
