Food Scene

Cafe is open for breakfast and lunch, and it's a fun spot for antique western souvenirs. Enjoy eating outside on a charming patio during those beautiful cool mornings of spring or fall. A must if you are in the Pinnacle Peak area.

Charming out of the way restaurant great for happy hour or that special dinner. Eat inside or out (mountain and golf course views) which I recommend. Reservations recommended during the season. Whether you want a hamburger, vegetarian dish, or that special main course, this is the place.

Arts & Culture

What a fascinating museum even if you don't like museums! It's a great place to spend the day when it's 110 degrees outside. The concerts offered are first class and there isn't a bad seat in the house.

Scottsdale Park Trail that gives you a wonderful view of the city. It's a fairly steep trail but well worth it...bring plenty of water. Have breakfast at the General Store after all your hard work.

Sears Kay Ruins are a wonderful short hike north of North Scottsdale that shows you what life was like long ago complete with Hohokam Indian ruins...high on a hill overlooking a water source and one can definitely imagine what life was like long ago. Hike is only a mile or so round trip. After an early morning hike breakfast at the Black Mountain Cafe in Carefree is a fun place to go and eat outside.
