Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Local old-school chopper manufacturer Sucker Punch Sally's is branching out into restaurants with Sucker Punch Sally's Old-School Diner, set to open for dinner on New Year's Eve at the corner of Mill Avenue and University in Tempe.
The former Ruby Tuesday's will now be decorated with vintage motorcycles and Fender guitars as part of a its badass retro theme, serving regional comfort food and fresh doughnuts and pies from its in-house bakery.
General manager Pete Lavallee tells me that they'll be serving breakfast 24 hours a day, and will eventually open a takeout window on Mill. There will be live music on the Fender/Gretch stage on weekends, and they'll do catering as well.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
