Food Scene
One of my favs in the Arcadia vicinity, you can't go wrong here. Pop in just for a beer or for a fabulous food. The vibe is chill and the patio is awesome if there's good weather!

Let's just say.... $5 wine every single day before 5pm. And the food is affordable and tasty. For 2 people, I recommend the Bruschetta board..pick up to 4 different types and you can't go wrong with any of the choices.

While having an industrial feel, they serve up amazing hand-crafted beers and super good food. Try the chicken rolls as an app or any of the burgers if you're a little more hungry. Oh, and the French Dip is the best I've ever had. If you're an IPA drinker, go for the Hop Knot. If you like lighter, the Sunbru or the Peach Ale is the way to go.

This has a hip but still casual scene and gets packed on weekends during game days. But the staff is great and attentive, and the food is hot and drinks are cold. If you just want to chill, this is your place.

This one is a little more on the fancier side I suppose, but I love it. On busier nights, it can be loud, but the vibe is lively and energetic. You can't beat the AZ88 chicken sandwich -- I crave it.

Ok, not only do they have poke bowls, but also wholesale seafood if you're in the mood to cook the freshest seafood around. I mean, AZ isn't THAT far from the ocean right? It's great. Oh, and BYOB too!

Close and great for lunch, this Mexican restaurant serves up great fajita bowls and you MUST have a margarita. Ask for Ryan -- he usually bartends upstairs. If you're up for some spice, def go with the jalapeno marg.

Ok, this is the definition of fine dining. An excellent raw bar complements a steak menu that's to die for. Highly recommended if you want to go fancy.

Want to indulge in baked English goodness? Go here. Cornish pasties galore and a cool selection of draft beer... and always good service. This is true comfort food. Great patio in good weather, but also cozy inside on a rainy day. My favorite is to actually have a beer or two and then take a par-baked pasty to go and eat it at the house. So, so good! (and cheaper!)

Parks & Nature
If the weather is good (and you're up for a moderate/strenuous hike), Camelback Mountain will give you some of the best views in the city. I recommend The Echo Canyon route. It's steep at first, then stays steep... ok, it's all steep, but well worth it if you're up for it.

My fav is Camelback Mountain, but this is a close second... (and also a little easier). Great views of downtown from the top. Bring water.
