'''===Coffee Shops'''<br>===
no edit summary
Below are places to eat, drink, hike and visit, around the Phoenix metro area. Also included are some popular spots farther away, but worth the time.
'''Giant coffee'''<br>
1437 N 1st St. Phoenix, AZ 85004
=== Food/Drink ===
If you’re fully charged with caffeine and looking for lunch or dinner, here are some local spots I visit repeatedly even though there are new ones I could probably try out.
'''Filibertos'''<br>
1050 W Chandler Blvd, Chandler, AZ 85224<br>
They close at 10:00pm. Good size portions.
'''India Oven'''<br>
5204 1315 S Gilbert Rd. Mesa, AZ 85204
I recommend this place because they offer an all you can eat buffet that is partially vegetarian and low fat. It’s about $13, nice and dark. And the food is spicy. Although it’s kind of far from Chandler.
15205 N Kierland Blvd #150, Scottsdale, AZ 85254<br>
Upscale outdoor shopping and chain restaurants.
===Bars===
'''Casey Moore’s Oyster House'''<br>
850 S Ash Ave, Tempe, AZ 85281<br>
College kid hangout. Beer, beer, beer. Fried, fried, fried. Loud music, fun, tons of seating, fabulous parking.
'''T&T Roadhouse Bar'''<br>
2915 N 68th St, Scottsdale, AZ 85251<br>
Excellent biker bar.
'''Bikini Lounge'''
1502 Grand Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85007<br>
The bar that sometimes has DJs, nice cocktails. CASH-ONLY!<br>
On Grand Avenue, in the arts district. Art friends are here a lot. Great people watching.
'''Sip Garage'''<br>
3620 E Indian School Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85018<br>
They took a Jiffy Lube and turned it into a bar. My friend Adam recruits local musicians to get up and sing and play guitar on the last Monday of the month. Highly recommended. Lots of beer choices, local brews, excellent food menu. Parking is extraordinarily limited here.
===Breakfast===
'''Hangar Café Chandler'''<br>
1725 E Ryan Rd 85286<br>
Breakfast on the tarmac of a small airport (my favorite). 10 minute drive from resort.
'''Joe’s Farm Grill'''<br>
3000 E Ray Rd, Gilbert, AZ 85296<br>
They grow what they serve. 15 minute drive from resort.
