http://www.tavernonmill.com Described by its owners as a "high volume" hotspot, the Tavern more than lives up to that slogan. Talented turntablists loudly blast out Top 40 and rock three nights a week. Meanwhile, close to 40 high-def widescreen TVs (more than any other bar on Mill) broadcast music videos, sports, and all those extra satellite channels you can't quite bring yourself to splurge on. The interior bar area and the outdoor patios are both brimming with ASU coeds, meaning there's plenty of eye candy. Oh, and they have daily drink deals, too, like $2 Coronas and Pacificos on Tuesdays and 22-ounce "big-ass" beers for $3 on Wednesdays. Those deals offer value just as voluminous as everything else at the Tavern, one of Mill Avenue's signature establishments. More >>
http://www.tempe.gov/lake/ Whether you’re looking for the best place to ride your bike, hike a trail, or just a cool place to plop down for a family picnic, this pleasantly landscaped park, originally built in 1931 and completely renovated in 1999 as part of the construction of the city’s Town Lake project, has what you want. With views of the Tempe skyline as a backdrop, Tempe Beach Park looks and feels like a whole lot more than just a widened stretch of the Salt River—which is pretty much what it is. The lake is more than just pretty; it's five miles of paths for bicycling, jogging or in-line skating circling Town Lake provide a great place to get some good exercise with a rented paddle boat or a pair of rented skates, both available there. Tempe city events like the Tour de Fat, New Year's Eve Fete, and Oktoberfest are all the more festive here, thanks to wide expanses of green grass and a new pedestrian bridge linking the “beach” to the park itself.

http://www.tempe.gov/lake/ This gateway to Tempe is practically a town unto itself. It’s home to an historic baseball field that plays host to softball games and carnival rides, as well as the Splash Playground, a one-acre water park that actually collects the water your kids are playing in, then filters, cleans, and re-circulates it in a state-of-the-art system. An amphitheater accommodates 5,000 people for concerts and outdoor trade shows. Completed in 1999, Tempe Town Lake is nearly two miles long and surrounded by a park and business and residential highrises that look out over the fun of fishing (the lake is stocked with rainbow trout and largemouth bass from November through February), boating, and even an excursion called the Rio Salado Cruise. Annual events at the lake include the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl New Year's Eve Block Party, the Tempe Music Festival, the APS Fantasy of Lights, and a Fourth of July fireworks that’s the biggest and brightest in the valley.

http://www.terrajava.biz Long considered to be one of the coolest art/coffee houses in Phoenix, Terra Java Coffee House & Bake Shop's offers comfy couches and other relaxing seating, Wi-Fi access, and plentiful, spacious tables that make it a great place for students to study. Its baristas also whip out any number of caffeinated concoctions - ranging from high-octane cappuccinos to teas from around the world - and monthly gallery exhibitions from local creative types are featured on the walls. Although it no longer features any live music (owing to its daily 6 p.m. closing time), the weekly spoken word and poetry session goes down on Saturday afternoons. More >>

Few things have been as quintessentially punk rock in the Valley as The Tribe House. Over the decade the rooms inside this red brick residence located near the intersection of 24th and Oak streets in East Phoenix has been a meeting ground for anarchist collective, housed a zine library, functioned as a recording studio, and a temporary crash pad for many a street kid. Then there’s its infamous cellar, which has hosted many a basement concert by a feral pack of pawn shop-guitar maestros in the utter dankness. It's as much a hallmark of the punk world as Mohawks and Bad Religion pins, and one of the rare places in the Valley to feature such a subterranean showcase of three-chord thunder. Gigs have never been limited to only punk, however, as musicians from a variety of local and touring indie, weirdo, and rock, rap acts have lugged their gear down a flight of stairs into the cozy cellar. And while shows here have been few and far between in recent years, when gigs do once again take place its guaranteed to be memorable. More >>
http://www.thetrunkspace.com Populated by a kooky coterie of performers and artists, the Trunk Space has become a haven for nationally touring indie outfits like Quintron and Miss Pussycat, as well as a number of burgeoning local bands. Creating a hipster block on Grand along with the always-popular Bikini Lounge and candy shop/record store Sweets & Beats, this quaint performance space/boutique/espresso bar is a stomping ground for a variety of musicians, artists, and other creative Phoenicians. Since its opening in 2005, a quirky cross-section of comedians, theater troupes, fringe acts, poets, and freakazoids have also graced the venue's tiny stage. More >>
