Patagonia Bikes owner Noe Mencias has opened his shop’s side door on Third Avenue as an espresso mini-cafe called Visitors Coffee. The space offers coffee only, no baked goods or other foods—“simple and focused,” says Mencias. Beans come from Tucson’s Presta Roasters. There are no set hours for “pulling shots” at Visitors—Mencias just puts the A-frame sign out when there are people around. He is delighted that people are finding the shop.
