When craft cocktails are your weakness, swing by Bitter & Twisted Cocktail Parlour, which also offers an array of tasty bar bites.

For a more low-key outing, visit one of the city’s myriad restaurants. Postino Wine Café is known for its rustic ambiance, extensive wine list and farm-fresh cuisine, and El Chorro offers delectable seasonal fare and striking views of Camelback Mountain. Head to The Stand for some of the best burgers and tacos in town, and satisfy your carnivorous cravings at Little Miss BBQ. Planning a special date night? Make a reservation at Crudo, which offers modern Italian dishes and an upscale vibe.

Enticing events and festivals

Travel back in time at the Arizona Renaissance Festival, featuring everything from handcrafted jewelry and art to succulent turkey legs and live entertainment. Or embrace your inner foodie during Arizona Restaurant Week, one of Phoenix’s most anticipated annual events. Take the whole family to the Arizona State Fair in the fall, and ring in the holiday season at the Glendale Glitters Spectacular, known for its twinkling light displays, petting zoo and shopping.

The great outdoors

Adrenaline junkies will jump at the chance to scale Camelback Mountain, the city’s most popular hiking and rock climbing destination, and mountain bikers will fall in love with Papago Park, known for its smooth desert trails.
