♥ OUR FAVORITES HAVE A HEART NEXT TO THEM ♥
We are huge supporters of locally owned businesses. We have left you with a list of locally-owned restaurants nearby and also a list of our favorites in all of the Phoenix metro area. Please support local if you can as it keeps our friends in business and the chains away.

♥ Over 130 craft beers (they are a to-go beer shop too)! The food is awesome, they serve both New Mexican cuisine & smoked BBQ. There is a full bar with wine, mead, and cider. The space is super cool inside, feels like a cozy lounge. You can also stop in just to buy beer and wine to-go. It's one of our very favorites in ALL of PHX.

Phoenix is a driving city, public transport is ok.
Uber, Lyft or rent a car. We do have a bus stop within 1/2 mile of our location and a rapid bus that goes directly to Downtown Phoenix within 20 minutes.
If you head south there is a light rail, but this does not reach our area.
