When you want to sip wine on a shaded patio... A romantic outdoor bar and patio separate the 1920s cottage and 1903 adobe brick house that make up this must-see restaurant. House of Tricks feels far from the bustle of Mill Avenue and the ASU campus. Enjoy the scrumptious New American fare, like Harissa-spiced mussels,
perfectly seared foie gras, juicy coffee-cardamom-crusted duck, and fork-tender braised osso bucco. The quiche of the day is my favorite lunch item. Even if you're just go for wine and appetizers on the front patio, this place is perfect for an intimate date or a luxurious, laid back feast.

When you're in the mood for a great burger go to the Chuckbox. We’ve been getting the best burgers at this open grill beef shack since 1994! Hands-down the best burger for the price in town. They’ve got a great condiment bar too. You won’t need much, but bring cash, cause they don’t take cards.

Parks & Nature
Papago Park
625 N Galvin PkwyA great place to spend a couple hours even when there isn't a festival going on. You can rent kayaks & paddle boards if you want to venture out onto the lake. Or you can stroll along the boardwalk. You can walk all the way around the lake via the pedestrian bridge on the west side of the lake, near Tempe Center of the Arts. Check out the damn, then in cool off at the bar inside TCA. If you're looking for a great leg workout, hike up Tempe Butte, AKA A Mountain. The trail head is just west of the Mill at the Southwest corner of Mill Ave and Rio Salado. It's a short, but steep hike to some spectacular views of ASU Stadium and the City.
