Scenester Short List
See All Lists
1. The Vig Uptown
I love to hang out here and just look at the place. This is an old Bank of America that has been transformed into a kinda cool kind hip place for the scenestas to chill. They have preserved a lot of the architecture and added their own touches to…More »
2. Lola Coffee
Lola embodies what supporting local businesses is all about! They have put together a first rate business that consistently serves GREAT coffee and offers a fine selection of pastries.
The atmosphere is awesome with large windows facing the street…More »
3. Lux
This place serves up a good cup of coffee and I LOVE the cheap refills on my Americanos. They also serve a lot of yummy looking pastries and other goodies. One of my top three coffee places in Phoenix. Has a real cool vibe and they are always playing…More »
4. Crescent Ballroom
I love that this venue is right downtown just two blocks from where I work. They've had some great live music in the short time that they've been open. Even if you don't want to pay the cover to see the show you can still hear the tunes while sitting…More »
5. Hanny's
Pretty marvelous place considering that this was an old department store that they have turned into a lounge/bar with the potential to have a club type feel to it .Hanny's does in my opinion suffer from a bit of an identity crisis because it feels…More »
6. Bliss/reBAR
Ok I 've been an absent Yelper as of late, but my experience here compelled me to rejoin the Yelping world. I came on opening night and I'm impressed what they did with the place. I came here when it was Fate then 905 and I hope that this venue makes…More »
7. MercBar
This is the kind of place you go when you want to feel L.A. or New York. Has a stylish trendy atmosphere, dark interior with little candles on the tables. They usually play good music, have good bartenders, etc. Of course this all comes at a price as…More »
8. The Vig
This place is awesome. I really REALLY love everything about it. It's got a cool, kinda trendy but mellow vibe. The low lit bar/indoor dining area is very stylish and definitely reminds you of something in L.A or Scottsdale.
The outdoor dining area…More »
9. Delux
The only down to this place is the stripmall-esque location. But this is not your average burger joint. These are creative, high-end burgers. You have your choice of regular our sweet potato (not my cup of tea) fries, served in a mini table-top…More »
10. El Hefe
Scottsdale, AZ 85251
(480) 945-6200
Fun cantina in Scottsdale. Good fun vibe close to Axis/Radius and within stumbling distance of The W. The service is attentive and friendly. The food looks yummy but I was too busy drinking. They have tables that have their own beer taps. Would love…More »

I've wanted to check this place out for a long time and I was not disappointed. This is where I will bring my out of town friends to prove to them that Arizona is cool. Despite being relatively small the high ceiling and bay windows give the place an…More »
12. Martini Ranch
This is a fun place with something for everyone. They have a decent selection of beer, wine and drinks. The main building consists of a bar with an adjacent stage and dance floor and some seating areas. You can venture outside to a nice patio area…More »
13. Floyd's 99 Barbershop
Even though Chandler is FAR to go for a haircut I'm glad I went. I read their ads in GQ and kind of felt that Floyd's was place was for me. I love my Russian Jewish barber to death but they're closed by the time I get off work during the week and it…More »
14. The Cumberland
I usually stay in Kensington when I visit London but this time I wanted some place where I could be a scenester and to where I could stumble back to after late nights in Leicester Square.
The Cumberland fit the bill on all counts. It is a very hip,…More »
15. Grill On The Alley
My dinner here was definitely one of the highlights of my time in Manchester. Really cool, trendy/casual atmosphere and attentive service.Great selection of meat dishes-enough to satisfy any carnivore particularly beef lovers with kobe beef being one…More »
16. St Francis Restaurant
I'm torn between three stars and four stars for St. Francis, but I'm giving four stars for the coolness factor. This was a service station that's been converted to a cool eatery with an AWESOME patio and an indoor/outdoor bar, which I LOVE. I like…More »
