AZ Spring Training – You're Out

You're Out on the town, that is. After the game it might be quite natural to feel a bit peckish, here are some great places where you can feed your hungry team.

Hungry History
 Local restaurants have turned old houses into new ventures, creating intimate dining settings that are as warm and welcoming as your family’s home.

Built in a 75-year-old adobe house, Old Town Tortilla Factory offers guests a historically Southwestern experience. Diners can enjoy one of the eatery’s famous margaritas inside the cozy restaurant or outdoors on the patio. The restaurant’s 1,200-foot flagstone patio is surrounded by lush, 100-year-old pecan trees and serves as a prime spot to enjoy Scottsdale’s bustling arts community. 

Visitors will feel right at home at Arcadia Farms. Nestled in the Scottsdale’s downtown arts district, the restaurant is situated in an old cottage home and serves organic food inspired by the wine country. 

Tucked away in a shady corner of downtown Scottsdale, The House Brasserie is a nod to days gone by. The original home structure was built in 1938 and many of the original trees still shade The House’s quaint patio.

Sweet Tooth
Got a taste for something sweet? We’ve got you covered with the best places in Scottsdale for dessert.

Super Chunk Sweets & Treats: Duck fat toffee, homemade licorice and chocolate bacon caramel corn? As if all that doesn’t sound delightful enough, the masterminds behind Super Chunk Sweets & Treats have even more unique and tasty indulgences for you to try. They describe their offerings as “small-batch, handcrafted confections with a slant towards traditional American flavors using unique ingredients and creative techniques.” Simply stated, it’s a must-try!

Sprinkles Cupcakes: Fuel up on delicious designer cupcakes at Sprinkles Cupcakes, conveniently located across the street from Scottsdale Fashion Square. Staple flavors like cinnamon sugar and red velvet are punctuated by special (seasonal) appearances from Irish chocolate, pumpkin and lemon. It doesn’t hurt that Sprinkles has some of the cutest souvenirs, too – for people and pups! 

Café & Ice Cream Parlor at The Phoenician: As if The Phoenician’s J&G Steakhouse, Il Terrazzo and Relish Burger Bistro weren’t enough of a foodie draw, the Café & Ice Cream Parlor has upped the ante. Nosh on freshly baked pastries, homemade ice cream, and frozen yogurt. The best part: you can dine in or take your sweet treats on the road.
