  5. A tea shop on Speedway with a drive-thru and a menu that branches into something like 4,500 combinations if you're counting. The drinks lean creative and a little tropical, built around named blends like the Rainforest or the Bayou, pineapple and dark cherry meeting lime, white peach cutting through raspberry. You can get your tea as a soda, latte, chai, or snow, which covers most moods and most temperatures Tucson throws at you.

  7. Rank 10086. Truong Tien

    Vietnamese

    Tucked deep inside the Eden Center mall, this Vietnamese restaurant operates on the assumption that you came ready to work for it. The staff speaks limited English and menu descriptions don't give much away, but the rice-cake and tapioca-dumpling appetizers, some banana-leaf-wrapped, some chicharrón-crusted with tiny shell-on shrimp, make the ordering process forgiving. The spicy lemongrass noodle soup with rustic meatballs in a rich beef broth is what regulars are usually after.

  8. A two-story craft beer bar inside Tucson's Metal Arts Village, with a sprawling patio equipped with misters and a clear sightline to the Santa Catalina Mountains. The taps rotate through local and regional brews, and the bottle list wanders into sake and Mexican wine, which keeps things interesting. Pizza comes in from a neighboring spot, so the food situation is handled. It's the kind of place that's genuinely hard to leave once you've settled into a corner.

  9. Rank 10086. Union Public House

    Gastropub American

    Thirty beers on tap and a whiskey wall that takes a minute to read: this is a gastropub in St. Philip's Plaza with exposed brick, wood beams, and a patio worth claiming on a good Tucson evening. The kitchen grinds its own burger meat, finishes it with bacon jam, and handles brunch on weekends. The bar runs late, closing at 2 a.m., which explains the crowd still there long after dinner has become a memory.

  12. Rank 10086. Westbound

    Cocktail Bar

    Two repurposed shipping containers in the MSA Annex form this open-air bar, with shaded communal tables, a fire pit, and a walk-in bottle shop stocked with beer, wine, and spirits. Draft cocktails rotate through things like a Mai Tai and a Cactus Wren, and the crowd tends to bring food over from the neighboring stalls rather than going anywhere near a kitchen. It's the kind of place that makes an industrial parking lot feel like a deliberate destination.

  84. The tables closest to the bridge put you near enough to hear the river running over the dam, which sets the mood before the food even arrives. This is an upscale farm-to-table restaurant on the Finley Farms property, where some of what ends up on your plate was grown out back. The seasonal menu leans into that, and the patio alone makes a strong case for lingering over one of their cocktails well past dinner.

  86. Rank 10399. Prime + Proper

    Modern American Steakhouse

    Glass, marble, and open-flame grills fill a room that makes clear this is a steakhouse with architectural ambitions. Downtown Detroit's Prime + Proper dry-ages its USDA Prime and Japanese Miyazaki cuts in-house before the fire gets anywhere near them, which is either discipline or showmanship, and possibly both. The wine list swings between Napa and the Old World. It ranked 65th on the World's Best Steak Restaurants list, for what that's worth on a Tuesday night in Michigan.


  87. Navy blue walls, exposed brick, and brass fittings that leave no doubt you're sleeping in a converted cannery on the waterfront, this hotel at Fisherman's Wharf leans hard into its nautical setting without quite tipping into theme-park territory. Bay-facing rooms look out at the Golden Gate or Alcatraz, depending on your tolerance for existential contemplation. Cable cars, Ghirardelli, and the Hyde Street Pier are all walkable from the front door.

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
