Huss Brewing Company

After working at Papago Brewing for 14 years, Leah Huss decided to found Huss Brewing Company with her husband in 2013. The Tempe taproom is offering 24 beers on tap including rotating signature Huss beers. The whole taproom also encourages outside food.

Icehouse

This multiroom mega-venue in downtown Phoenix has hosted numerous raves and underground dance parties over the past decade. Talented turntablists will spin hardcore and house within its cavernous concrete walls while club kids and glowstick types get their PLUR on and sweat up a storm.

IKEA

Let’s face it — people aren’t coming here just to eat Swedish meatballs, gravlax, and open-faced shrimp sandwiches. They’re fueling up on cheap, hearty grub that’ll inspire hours of shopping at this mega-retailer. The cafeteria setup makes for an easy bite when you’d rather spend your time perusing the furniture.
