Roadrunner Coffee Co.
1612 N Alvernon Way, Tucson, AZ
Crema's Take
“Tucson's Roadrunner Coffee wins hearts with genuinely kind staff and a creative menu that goes way beyond standard fare—think mocha-banana "raging roadrunner" drinks, bagel dogs, and avocado toast alongside solid espresso work. Whether you're grabbing a quick nitro cold brew through the drive-thru or settling in for breakfast, this neighborhood gem on Alvernon and Dodge manages to feel both efficient and welcoming, with enough variety to keep regulars coming back without ever feeling overwhelming.”

Places like this make me wish Google had a recommendation system or a way to give more than 5 stars. I came here for the first time yesterday, the staff were extremely kind and patient. Came back this morning to the same awesome service and INCREDIBLE coffee. The coffee and dairy they use both taste fantastic. This place has better prices and way better coffee than the Dutch Bros or other chains nearby, AND you can know you're supporting a local business.
So good! I'm sure many have driven by this little spot on Alvernon and Dodge, but stop in next time! They have pastries, breakfast burritos, bagel dogs, avocado toast, and delicious coffee! The lines are never long, the staff is incredibly kind, and everything is reasonably priced. 10/10 ☕️
One person working, waited for about 10 to 15 minutes in line, which I understand-lines aren’t a sign of service or quality. High prices for coffee, got a medium nitro cold brew for about $6.50. I asked for a little bit of cream, and it ended up being milky white. Not a strong coffee flavor, not even filled up to the top. Used some leftover coffee from the day before to make it taste a little stronger actually. Disappointed, probably won’t ever go back.
I live down the street and always come for a raging roadrunner. The drink is mocha and banana with coffee and it's absolutely delicious 😋 haven't tried anything else but probably never will since I usually come when I'm craving that drink. The staff is always super friendly
I love the variety of their menu and the efficiency of the drink making. I cannot complain one bit. They have a large list to choose from, without it being overwhelming. It is a drive-thru too so you can definitely make this a staple stop on your work commute!
