Cafe Francais
7831 E Wrightstown Rd ste. 113, Catalina Foothills, AZ
Crema's Take
“Their macarons are legitimately the best in the area—try the coconut rose or ginger lime if you want to understand why regulars rave about them. The pastry cases are genuinely artistic (croissants, peach cinnamon pastries, and captain crunch macarons that taste as creative as they sound), making this Tucson's only authentic French-style bakery worth the trip. Just note that the coffee is secondary to the pastries, so come for the treats and linger over a slow sit, not expecting espresso excellence.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.

Our first visit but not our last. I wanted to try everything. It's all beautiful, it's all art. There is art on the walls and in the pastry cases. A lot of the art you get to eat! I tried the Caramel Carrot Cake Smasher and it was a lovely treat that I savored and didn't rush…
I tried a captain crunch macaron that was a light delicious flavor. The chocolate filled croissant was decadent and perfectly flaky. I also tried a peach pastry with cinnamon and sugar topping that I don't remember the name of that was to die for. This place might become a…
The only french style bakery in Tucson, so for that reason it’s good. Pastries are decent, although not as good and more expensive than the best options in other cities. Coffee was horrible, asked to add only a small amount of flavor and it tasted like it was half syrup. If I…
