epic cafe

"What wafts through the air are more than just the deafening wheeze of the espresso machine and the baristas screaming, "short soy latte!" There's the overheard conversations, the eavesdropped lives, the clickety-clackety of fingers on laptops, the whoosh of air as you get up from green vinyl couches."
"Epic is a microcosm of visuals, too: chartreuse-hued hairdos, piercings and tattoos, hippie, anarchist and professorial types-readers, thinkers, scribblers, talkers, sippers and gazers of all persuasions."
"This is as close as you can get to Berkeley without leaving Tucson. The inexpensive, healthy food with fresh vegetables. The diverse crowd. The casual, occasionally cranky counter service. The art on the walls. The straws in the Viagra-labeled container. It's all there."
"Fresh made soups, salads, sandwiches, quiche, bagels, scones, muffins, cakes, pies, flan, mousse, pasta dishes, lot of vegetarian and vegan offerings. Did we mention the best coffee in Tucson?"
LOCATED ON THE SW CORNER OF 4TH AVE AND UNIVERSITY BLVD
