Spirit House

When you walk into Spirit House, remember that it was once neighboring SanTan Brewing Co,’s junk drawer. Not a drawer, exactly – more like a side room where SanTan folks stored random items such as old kegs, glassware and kitchen stuff. They’ve since converted it into a 49-seat cocktail lounge that’s proven popular among the […]

Spirits Bar & Grill

Roll down the dusty Apache Trail to Mesa, and approaching the city limits you’ll happen upon this sprawling roadhouse and southern-fried venue infused with an aura of rock ‘n’ roll debauchery. Wall-sized posters of such notorious party animals as Tommy Lee and the Beastie Boys seemingly inspire the rowdy times regularly served here up with […]

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.

The chunk of north Valley land covers interesting archaeological sites and lush riparian areas along Cave Creek. Though you’ll have to be there in the winter to see it flow.

St. Amand Kitchen & Cocktails

You’ll find a European-themed menu with Arizona and American touches at St. Amand Kitchen & Cocktails, located in the Ocotillo district in south Chandler. The name is a nod to the patron saint of winemaking, beer brewing, and bartending, which creates a kind of self-imposed pressure on the drink program here. Good thing it holds […]
