Samuel & Olivia
Things To Do
Cartel Roasting Co.
Come here for the coffee that we sipped on our first date! Before we walked around downtown taking portraits, we enjoyed some great conversation about our lives and future aspirations. Sam ordered a cappuccino, and Olivia had an iced chai latte with oat milk.
Time Market
An all around fun place to be. Time Market is Tucson's oldest bodega, and has been established in the heart of the city for more than 100 years! With great pastries, pizza, sandwiches and so much more, this is one of our favorite all-in-one places to grab brunch.
Bubbe's Fine Bagels
Bubbe's has been our go-to spot for some really dang good bagels. They have a multitude of options for everyone, and it's been hard to try everything they have because it's all so good! Sam's usual order is a toasted everything bagel with plain cream cheese, and Olivia loves the toasted sesame bagel with chive cream cheese. They close at 2pm, so this makes for a perfect breakfast stop!
Mt Lemmon Cookie Cabin
Mt. Lemmon is a place where we love to go to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, clear our minds, or just take a trip to a place that feels different than the desert. At the Cookie Cabin, we love to snack on a chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and sip on a hot chocolate to wash it down! Once you're done sugar-loading, you can take a nice easy walk up the road to the Mt. Lemmon General Store to get some of our favorite Cookies N Cream fudge!
Tumamoc Hill Hiking Trail
Tucson has some of the greatest, most scenic hiking that we have ever seen. Tumamoc Hill is no exception to that! If you want to go for a quick hike and have some stunning views of the city, we highly recommend giving this trail a try!
Hotel Congress
Hotel Congress has everything! Live music, killer breakfast and brunch at the Cup Cafe located inside of the hotel, as well as a thriving nightclub where you can get some tasty drinks and enjoy the nightlife of Downtown Tucson. Olivia typically orders a tequila cranberry and Sam typically orders an Old Fashioned!
