Nightjar - San Xavier

Loved this spot while on vacation! The bartender made this drink for my partner from an old menu and it was perfect! The place is really cozy.Drink name is “Scotch Tales” for those wanting something peaty.Parking: Free parking with plenty of space.

Looking for a place to take your date out?? This IS the place. 10/10 for their ambience. It's romantic. It's intimate. And it's in a quieter area of downtown. The drinks here are quite pricey but worth what you pay for. I love their well crafted cocktails and the options to sit in or outside the restaurant. Food wise, it's good and pairs well with their drink selections.

Finally got to try out Nightjar/ (Mayer Ave cafe/The Coronet? ?? Glad I was adamant about trying this place, because their hours posted on Google said it was closed (perhaps with different names/changes? ... I gave em call and found they were open!!! Whoohoo!]With the very convenient parking lot outback, but not so convenient signs as to where to enter, or that there was more then one entrance, we found our way through the front..Upon walking in, you're immediately met with a beautiful, quiet courtyard, that leads down various paths, one of which leads to the café. Inside you can find the cafe counter, as well as various gifts, treats, and goodies of all sorts, as well as a friendly great from the baristas behind the counter.The daytime menu, (8 2 , is a unique, yet simple variety of food, that is appealing yet also not your standardized breakfast brunch food by any means... from granola at $13, to a more sophisticated Barrio Gravelax bagel w/ side salad at $18 this is by far one of the more intriguing places in town for the daytime options, with a price to match.I tried what felt like a familiar, yet interesting enough southern bowl, which consisted of two fried eggs, black beans, spuds (potatoes , with warm green chili cilantro lime crema at $15, with the option of adding Dragoon session sausage at $8, or bacon for $6 dollars more, (which I opted out of to not burn a hole in my pocket before noon . My mother splurged a bit and got the Gravelax bagel w/ side salad at $18.We also picked out two café drinks, a café Americano (hot , and an iced mocha, which came out as hot, but eventually got the right one (iced .. all very tasty!!Both dishes, we agreed, were very well prepared and plated beautifully.. mine caught me off guard a slight bit, when I realized I never specified over easy eggs, which ultimately was a little much to stomach, but very much appreciated the presentation.My mother expressed her enjoyment of the unique nature of the Gravelax bagel w/ side salad, but unfortunately, we both felt it was a little more money then was reasonable for what it ultimately was.. which essentially, is just a bagel with fish and a small small side... perhaps because it had fish? and a small portion of salad? I guess that it validates the price.. but, felt because of the many vast breakfast/lunch spots in town to choose from at a more reasonable price, ultimately felt a bit of a stretch, especially for my wallet and for dropping big bucks all before noon.Our café experience was definitely the highlight of our experience! Very well the best coffees we've had in a while, and why I left with at least some satisfaction..This place has so much to offer in atmosphere, quality of service, and delicious drinks, so I hope to see more diversity when it comes to menus and price points to suit all walks of life that could really appreciate this beautiful place, and really benefit this business and amplify its potential. : Perhaps I'll come with guests for an fancy evening at (Nightjar? Coronet? , where I can justify a more pricy, sophisticated option.

Romantic atmosphere and exquisite cocktails in one of Tucson's most unique historic properties. I adore the low lighting and intimate vibe... the exact opposite of a loud sports bar. Excellent.

The bartender closed someone else's 120 dollar tab on my card. He said it would be refunded but then it never came through. Liked the place otherwise.
