We’re aiming to raise $10,000 by April 26. Your support ensures New Times can continue watching out for you and our community. No paywall. Always accessible. Daily online and weekly in print.
Since there’s really no better accessory than a cocktail in your hand, each week Jackalope Ranch brings you a tasty adult beverage from one of our favorite drinking establishments, complete with recipe. This week: The Manhattan at Feeney’s.
While the exact origins of the Manhattan are subject to debate, we know that it comes from 19th century New York — and it carries quite a kick. The Manhattan at Feeney’s is no different.
The classic North Central Phoenix haunt (est. 1965) hosts Ladies’ Night every Tuesday with $2 wells and $3.50 martinis. Print a 10 percent off coupon from the website and enjoy a happy hour that runs … pretty much always.
Check your pretension at the door, DO NOT talk about your job, and slow your roll down to 1965-levels — better yet, get down to 1865 with a slick Manhattan.
