  • Baja Café

    7002 E. Broadway Blvd. East side

    495-4772

    Baja Café is a soon-to-be discovered hidden Eastside gem, serving up breakfast classics with a Sonoran twist (green chile benedict, anyone?) and standard sandwich/burger lunch fare, with the addition of some taco and quesadilla selections. The décor is kitschy and cute, and the service is friendly. This little breakfast-and-lunch neighborhood dive has fresh, hot food, though don’t expect to be in and out in a flash. (7-10-14)

  • Bread and Butter Café

    4231 E. 22nd St., No. 101. East side

    327-0004

    For a cheap, fast breakfast or lunch, the Bread and Butter Caf? is a longtime Tucson favorite (although the joint doesn't serve butter; go figure). The coffee cup is bottomless and constantly refilled; the eggs are cooked perfectly to order. Be sure to save room for a ?wedge? of homemade pie; dessert is where this caf? really excels. Expect a wait during peak weekend hours. (4-9-09)
