Laverna's Coffee Shop
220 S Plumer Ave, Tucson, AZ
Crema's Take
“Tucked into an unassuming brick building, this beloved locals' spot feels like stepping into someone's living room, complete with a kitchen table aesthetic that keeps regulars (and their grandmas) coming back for decades. The real showstopper is their breakfast—think massive pancakes that sprawl across dinner plates in flavors like apple pecan, alongside generous chicken fried steak and perfectly refilled black coffee that fuels the easy conversation between neighbors and longtime friends. It's the kind of place where you're greeted warmly the moment you walk in and leave wondering why it took you so long to discover it.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Opens early. Family friendly.
