Our Story and Philosophy
At Coop by Cowpig, we take pride in being a family-owned restaurant rooted in local flavors and traditions. Founded by Thomas Castro and inspired by his father, Javier Castro—who made his mark with the popular Cowpig food truck known for its mouthwatering bacon burgers —Coop brings the same dedication to quality. Our chicken recipe has been carefully perfected over the years, ensuring every bite is packed with flavor and made with care—no shortcuts, just great taste.
Menu and Specialties
At Coop we pride ourselves in serving the absolute best chicken cooked to perfection. Our wide array of flavors and homemade sides, ensure everyone finds something to satisfy their cravings.
Location and Transition
Initially, Coop by Cowpig was housed within American Eat Co., a food hall in Tucson. This is where we gained popularity for our chicken tenders. Following our success, we finally transitioned to our own brick-and-mortar location at 429 N. Fourth Ave.,
We proudly celebrated our grand opening on April 20, 2024.
