There's enough money around in Flagstaff to support several upscale
restaurants
, while the area around San Francisco Street, both north and south of the tracks, must be the liveliest
nightspot
between Las Vegas and Santa Fe, filled with vegetarian cafA©s, espresso bars and pubs.
Alpine Pizza 7 N Leroux St tel 928/779-4109. Raucous student hangout downtown, with decent pizzas and lots of beer. Beaver Street Brewery & Whistle Stop CafA© 11 S Beaver St tel 928/779-0079. Inventive sandwiches and salads, wood-fired pizzas, and outdoor bar-becue in the beer garden in summer. Black Barts 2760 E Butler Ave tel 928/779-3142. Enjoyable Western-themed steakhouse on the east edge of town, with a delicious smell of burning wood, and waiting staff who sing and dance on stage in between serving up barbecued steaks, ribs and chickens, for $15-20. CafA© Espress 16 N San Francisco St tel 928/774-0541. Great vegetarian breakfasts, then salads, sandwiches and veggie specials for the rest of the day, plus espresso coffees. Downtown Diner 7 E Aspen Ave tel 928/774-3492. Classic Route 66 diner a block north of the main drag, featuring leatherette booths and hefty burgers and sandwichs. Flagstaff Brewing Company 16 E I-40 tel 928/773-1442. Popular downtown pub, with outdoor seating, big windows, and live music Wed-Sat. Macy's European Coffee House & Bakery 14 S Beaver St tel 928/774-2243. Not merely superb coffee, but heavenly pastries to go with it, plus more substantial vegetarian dishes such as black bean pizza, and even couscous for breakfast.
The Museum Club
3404 E I-40 tel 928/526-9434. A real oddity; this log-cabin taxidermy museum somehow transmogrified into a classic Route 66 roadhouse, saloon and country music venue, that's a second home to hordes of dancing cowboys. Other useful information
