Cafe Cornucopia

We lucked out and chose this great little place to eat while visiting Bisbee for the first time. It was close to our hotel, Letson Lofts, and it turned out to be a delightful surprise in dining. The owner and staff could not have been nicer, and the food was delicious and healthy. Everything was great — the quiche, soup, sandwich and dessert — but the homemade bread was to die for! I wish they were closer to our home in Phoenix, and we might have to go back for the great food.

Wow! The worst dining experience of my life. We walked in to a full dining room. This should have been a good sign. We figured the food must be delicious. Deciding to tolerate the crowd and have patience with the busy staff, we waited. When it was finally our turn to order, we had a few questions being that we had never been to Bisbee. The server (with blue-​ish green hair) was INCREDIBLY rude. Slamming paper down on the counter. Telling us flat out that we were ordering wrong. She let us know that there is outside dining but «all the tables are dirty». My husband ordered a root beer float and she said «well that’s gonna take awhile». I was flabbergasted at the severe lack of customer service or just simple human kindness. We didn’t stay to eat. Her attitude was so terrible, we canceled our order and decides to eat elsewhere. We will NEVER be back!!!

So darn delicious! This was my favorite place I ate at in Bisbee. I got a quiche and Greek salad and both were really really good. I usually am not the biggest fan of Greek salad, I could take it or leave it, but theirs really was great. The best part though was their homemade, buttery bread, which they give you a giant piece of. Will definitely try to make it here when they have their corn chowder next time.

Wandered into this café while checking out Bisbee for the first time. It was everything a small town restaurant should be — welcoming, friendly staff and wonderful, delicious food. Meatloaf sandwich is incredibly tasty and the generous portion could easily feed two people. Green chili quiche was light and not overly spicy, served with a beautiful Greek salad. Save room for the coconut custard pie! It’s great. Hope to make another trip to Bisbee and will definitely include a return trip to the café.

We are in Bisbee on business and have eaten lunch here twice. Freshly baked breads, from-​scratch soups & desserts. Fresh veggies and fresh entrees. Good quality food. Good service. If you are in Bisbee, this is a must-​try place.

Seeing how it’s Bisbee with not a lot of options they are lucky to have Café Cornucopia. They are always coming up with fresh and creative new menu items which are always great. Love their Tangerine Orange Juice, fresh and unique. A very welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. I’d definitely recommend stopping in for a small snack or dessert or a full meal.

Cute atmosphere, great food (especially the desserts) and good service. Get there before the lunch crowd does because it fills up fast.

I’ve been here several times now and nobody in our party has been disappointed, everyone walked away raving about the food. The locals come here, that tells you something.
This place is wonderful for lunch. Their quiche is always great, but the meatloaf sandwich I had there today was quite possible the best one I’ve had in my lifetime (see photo). You better be hungry. The meatloaf is cooked perfectly, and the juice runs out when you bite into it which is an indication they don’t overdo the fillers when they make it.
Their breads are homemade — what can you say?
The only downside: very little seating. Make sure you send someone ahead to grab a table, otherwise you won’t get in. We did see a lot of people picking up takeout today, so that’s one alternative.

Wow is all I can say!!! By far the best food I’ve had in a very long time. I had the half sandwich with salad. Chose the meatloaf sandwich… was about 5″ high!!! And delicious. The Cesar salad was the best I’ve EVER had. also had a huge thick slice of yummy homemade bread. Honey Oat… YUMMMMY. I want to go back to Bisbee just to eat there again!

Great place to get a quick bite. They have great soup and sandwich’s

We stopped by Café Cornucopia for lunch and were happy with our choice! Their portions are huge and homemade. I got their quiche which was delicious, light and fluffy while The Boy got the turkey sandwich and soup of the day, clam chowder. The chowder was a little too runny for his liking (it was like water) but he was happy with his sandwich. Both entrees came with a thick slice of buttered bread on the side.
We wanted to try some of the baked goods before we left but chocolate chip cookies were still in the oven and we couldn’t wait 15 min for them to be done so we got the cherry crisp. The portion was so huge the two of us barely made a dent
Why not 5 stars? I abhor microwaves in restaurants, especially ones in plain view. All in all, a quaint place with good food.

So us uptight out of towners rolled in at lunchtime and couldn’t immediately figure out the process. You order at the register and if there is an open table you sit down. They might be filled but we got one during lunch hour and waited for lunch, soup and a sandwich and dessert. Artichoke and chicken soup was homemade and fabulous, egg salad and meat loaf sandwich made from scratch with a slice of home made bread: fabulous. Sour cream mocha cake was freshly homemade and terrific with many other food and dessert options. Don’t miss this a great spot. Worth the initial wait as it is popular with tourists and locals. Really nice people run and make the food.

have been coming down from Tucson for years for their quiche. no more. it was so bad I had to leave it on the plate. shriveled, burnt, then nuked! a fork couldn’t cut it. totally different vibe. nothing lasts forever I guess

Hands down my favorite restaurant in Old B. Soups are always delicious, even the «different» ones. My favorite is the carrot! The bread is heavenly, always fresh and flavorful. The greek salad is amazing! My go to lunch is half a turkey avocado on Multigrain bread with a greek salad or soup. They serve you with a huge slab of fresh buttered bread. They also have a nice selection of homemade desserts. Lemon bars are my fav as well as the strawberry cake. The only downside is that the restaurant does not hold many people. So go early and grab a table!

Great place for friends and family to have lunch. Lots of great options. We had vegan soup and veggie sandwich and they were delicious. A few beer options as well. The owners are nice people who kick butt at making you feel welcome.

The quiche was delicious! For $ 9, it also comes with a large salad AND and big hunk of homemade bread. I was very satisfied!
I went for lunch on a Tuesday, and it was busy but not too crowded. Very nice ambiance here with just enough seating and natural light.

This was out first stop when heading into Bisbee. We went in for lunch and had the turkey sandwich and green chili quiche.
The turkey sandwich had fresh avocado, tomato, cucumber, cheese mayo, turkey and probably a few other things I’m missing. I got it on sourdough which was soft and delicious. It really was the perfect mix of ingredients and definitely hit the spot.
The green chili quiche was perfectly cheesy. It was fluffy, seasoned well, and had a great crust. It came with buttered bread and a greek salad. This was also a great combination of foods for 9 bucks.
The owner (I assume) was super friendly and new almost everyone that came in. It made this place seem not touristy and local. The space was small but had a cute ambiance and happy employees.

Love this place! I am SO glad they are now serving brunch on Sundays!!! I believe they open at 8AM! Everything here is fantastic, from the quiche to the lemonade and cakes! It’s all homemade and you can tell.

For breakfast /​lunch in Bisbee, look no further — seriously. Everything is super fresh, and most is made from scratch in-​house. Incredible sandwiches and salads, homemade soups, homemade pastries (that are absolute heaven, sitting out for display, tempting you to order some for here, and some more to go) — you can’t go wrong. All at incredibly affordable prices, esp for a touristy area. AND they have arguably the nicest /​cleanest restroom in all of Bisbee. My one complaint — their lemonade was quite bland and leaves a bit to be desired. Other than that, this place is stellar ~ my go-​to every time I visit this wonderful little town.

After our venture out for the beer that Bisbee had to offer it was time for lunch. Since the brewery didn’t offer much in the way of food we walked around with Unilocal on our cell phones to find a place to eat. After knocking a few possibilities off we decided on Café Cornucopia.
Sandwiches (on house made bread) and salads dominate the menu here with some tasty dessert offerings as well which were also made in house.
Sue and I ended up getting a sandwich each and sharing the second half. She ordered the meatloaf and I had the turkey with avocado and cheese. The turkey was sliced in house which is always a nicer way to go than your normal precut meat. I enjoyed the meatloaf. Tasted like something your mom might have made for you when you were a kid. The turkey was ok. Not amazing, but healthy all the same.
The women behind the counter (owners possibly) seemed to be having a good time. Most of the other people in the place seemed to be locals. I got a very homey vibe out of this place.
