In 2019 we took over Cafe Francais a few weeks before TMY. Luckily we had the help and support of the previous owners. This year it is all us! We are so excited. In the last 2 years we have grown and learned so much. We can’t wait to meet new faces and introduce you to the new and improved Cafe Francais. This family-run business has so much passion and experience with French baking and couldn’t have dreamt of a better choice than to share it with Tucson.
Cafe Francais re-opened its Desert Bakehouse storefront with fresh-baked breads and pastries, plus a carefully curated selection of goodies from both Arizona and French small business, on July 14, 2022. Open 7-1 Thursday through Sunday. Cafe Francais is also a farmer market staple, peddling pastry all weekend around town and down in Green Valley on Wednesdays.
