School’s out forever at this hybrid sports/rock ‘n’ roll theme eatery where the shock-rocker born Vincent Furnier is worshipped like a demigod. Goth-punk waitresses wear eye makeup

Showing 1 - 22 of 58Plenty of praise has been heaped upon the beers over at Arizona Wilderness Brewing Co. (chef’s kiss to that extra-peachy Sonoran Prince), but the food at this “Arizona-inspired scratch kitchen” is top-notch as well. Wild concoctions like the peanut butter and jalapeño jelly burger and the dry-rub chicken drumsticks confit are reason alone to drop […]
Arizona Wilderness Brewing Co. opened its downtown Phoenix beer garden (the original’s in Gilbert) in 2019 with the goal of becoming the living room of Roosevelt Row. To say it has succeeded would be an understatement. The massive patio, sun-shaded and full of native plants meant to attract local birds and bugs, is a major […]
Cozy British-themed pub with a fair selection of British and international beers, and some pretty decent English grub: sausage rolls, fish and chips, bangers and mash, and an excellent beef and Guinness pie. Baskets of Wallys — deep-fried spears of dill pickles — make for terrific bar food when paired with a cold pint. For […]
Cactus Jack’s brings a rock ‘n’ roll atmosphere to an otherwise sleepy strip mall in Ahwatukee. Credit co-owner Gina Lombardi, who bought a stake in the neighborhood bar in 2014 after her landmark rock venue The Sail Inn was pushed out of Tempe by gentrification. She installed a stage, a sound system, a lighting rig, […]
The shopping cart fries are what you’ll most likely remember after eating at Delux, an upscale burger joint in the Biltmore area. They’re called “A La Cart” fries, and they’re served in an actual mini shopping cart overflowing with french or sweet potato fries. But the burger is the real star of the show here. […]
Fate is kind of like all of Phoenix’s bigger brewpubs shrunk down to a miniature. While that means it isn’t supplying its beer all over town just yet, it does mean that Fate is constantly brewing new and different beers to sample every day. It also means you have a front row seat to the […]

Owned by the same lads that operate the Skeptical Chymist, Fibbers is also a popular Irish pub of the traditional bent. Its authenticity extends beyond just having Guinness and Harps on tap and Jameson behind the bar. The place is loaded with Celtic curiosities aplenty — from antique cigarette signs to various and sundry trinkets. […]
Arizona’s largest brewery, Four Peaks Brewing Co. has been serving craft beer and upscale pub fare in a late-19th century, Mission-style Tempe warehouse since 1996. Yes, there are other locations, and yes, Anheuser-Busch InBev acquired the brewing company in 2015, but the 8th Street Pub remains a totally Tempe institution (and is said to be […]
Businesses tend to come and go in Downtown Tempe, but brewpub Gordon Biersch, which overlooks the corner of Mill Avenue and Fifth Street, has been a loyal mainstay for more than a decade. It’s no surprise, given the bar’s lofty view (which is particularly nice at sunset) and the establishment’s longstanding dedication to handcrafted beer. […]
