Nestled into a far corner of the tiny strip mall just across the street from Mesa Community College, Uncle Monkeys exudes a certain level of charm. A cigarette vending machine glows near the door, and a wooden Native American statue stands watch over the jukebox, seemingly offering approval to any listening choices patrons make (word […]
These days, you can’t throw a ring light without hitting some kind of immersive experience around town. But when tiki bar UnderTow opened in 2016, there wasn’t anything like it in the Valley. The decor that turned the space into the cargo hold of a 19th-century ship, the sound effects, the exquisitely crafted tropical drinks […]
The intersection of Camelback Road and 24th Street has a lot to offer. An outdoor mall, coffee shops and a seemingly endless string of restaurants on both the north and south sides. If one place were to stand out, it would need to have a lot to offer. That’s where Flint rises to the top. […]

The Wayward Taphouse arrived during the COVID era, a time when Phoenix was in great need of patios. The outdoor seating here seems to have been arranged with care. There are good sun and shade options, the space is outside food- and dog-friendly, and it’s surrounded by the casitas (which many know were once prisoner-of-war […]
This well-loved south Scottsdale dive carries none of the pretension of the cocktail parlors and clubs occupying the same stretch of road further north. The music is loud; happy hour participants will have to shout over whatever live Phish jam is playing to argue about their sports. There’s also a sunny, spacious, dog-friendly patio, which […]
Located on a stretch of Fifth Avenue near Indian School Road, the sleek little country music joint perched at the edge of Old Town comes courtesy of Tucker Woodbury (The Vig bars and The Little Woody tavern in East Phoenix) and Stateside Presents promoter Charlie Levy. A kind of honky-tonk version of the Crescent Ballroom, […]
As the adage goes, you can’t judge a book by its cover. And that’s most certainly the case with this Glendale haunt. Though its stucco exterior may seem sparse, with only a faded sign announcing its presence, its vibrant interior is rich with both color and character. For the past 10 years, owner Les Hestand’s […]
