Spoke & Wheel

This cyclist-friendly tavern and restaurant (in the odd-shaped building at the end of Murphy Bridle Path in Sunnyslope) features mostly mediocre upscale bar food standards and snacks like burgers, wings, and fish and chips. Libations include beer, wine, and cocktails with names like The Drunk Biker and Easy Rider.

St. Francis

Chef-owner Aaron Chamberlin hired Wendell Burnette Architects to overhaul this early 50s Harold Ekman building, and the final result is stunningly cool. Sit on the patio, sip a refreshing Sunny & Dry cocktail, and dig in to comforting contemporary American cuisine, from crisp, puffy flatbread with black Mission figs, to fragrant seafood stew. And thankfully, […]

Stacy’s at Melrose

If the gay agenda includes more bars like Stacy’s, you can understand why conservatives feel so threatened: It’s a blast in here. Sundays are for drag brunch, Mondays are for karaoke, Wednesdays for gothed-out dance parties, and Fridays are for — well, more drag and more dancing. You’ll also find a grab-bag of the sort […]

Stand Up Live

Comedy and cocktails are classic combination. Depending on the night’s talent, sometimes you want a drink and sometimes you need a drink. But considering the host of big names at CityScape’s Stand Up Live, you’ll probably go with the former. Owned by next door live music purveyors Copper Blues, Stand Up Live takes a cue […]

The Stand

The Stand Burgers & Tacos takes In-N-Out Burger’s keep-it-simple philosophy, and adds Arcadia flair by making the burger more upscale (and more expensive) and putting tacos on the menu. While some of the items are forgettable, most of the menu is so satisfying that you may soon be a regular if you live in the […]

Standard Restaurant Supply

Sure, chefs and restaurateurs come to this no-frills warehouse for fridges, ice-makers, china caps and cooking pots (sized to feed a small nation), but non-professionals are welcome to browse the cavernous place as well, stocked with loads of kitchen basics (whisks, colanders, mixing bowls), plain dinnerware and glass-ware at good prices. On any given day, […]

Starbucks

Named for the chief mate on the whaling ship from Moby Dick, the company didn’t begin chasing the Great […]
