r/phoenix

I'm 36M and I have almost no night life experience, no experience in bars or clubs, but I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone. I have made a plan to get on the light rail to The Churchill. I have been once before, as well as Taco Chelo down the street but that's about it.

I was thinking of grabbing a drink or two and maybe just walking around. I am trying to make an attempt at socializing, but I'll probably chicken out. I usually just work, gym, kids and sleep. I had a bad break up a few months ago and I am trying to attempt to change my rhythm.

Any advice would be helpful, thanks! :)

EDIT: Thanks so much for all the swift replies! It looks like I have a lot of options! Im goin' to do my best and try not to chicken out. :D

I hope he doesn't cancel! He hasn't posted his surprise song yet 🥴

I know back to school is a common time for us to get ill, but any idea what’s going around right now? We’ve been down in my household with a sore throat, headache, achy muscles, fatigue, and respiratory symptoms. However, our at home tests have been negative for everything.

I really want to use prickly pear and an ingredient in a cheese cake but I need prickly pear puree, and I’d rather not substitute with cocktail concentrate or juice.

Anyone know where I can get some fresh prickly pear or even prickly pear purée? Maybe a smaller store, farmers market or something?

Also, once I find some, what are your favorite ways to eat/prepare prickly pear?

Do any of you have a contractor or company you can recommend to perform a pretty basic bathroom remodel?
My parents are too old to be hopping in a tub, so I want to convert to a walk in. The sinks and toilets could also benefit from being updated.
Thanks!

12 got the DR from Tempe about the incident that got two officers placed on leave.

Hi all, I live in mesa and only have been around here for a year. Does anyone have any recommendations for Eastern European food/ markets here? I’ve been searching but can’t really find good info, does anyone have any secret spots? Im craving it SO BAD! I need a pirozhki now😭💔

Just diagnosed celiac… any good advice on total gluten free restaurants or bakeries that are 100% gluten free? Thanks in advance.

Biscobing says there’s a kidnapping allegation and that Phoenix didn’t answer if search warrants were served on the cops.

I know this is in Tempe, but I just seen a car with ANPR camera driving around the parking lot capturing everyone’s information. Is this something that’s been going on around the valley?

Hi everyone! My dog is in need of surgery and I am hoping for any recommendations of vets who you trust around the area (or outside of phoenix) Currently looking for a vet who is caring, thoughtful and can make sure our pup is comfortable. Additionally, any info on general pricing (on the more expensive side or willing to work with a payment plan) would be very helpful! Thank you guys! :)

For all my bus riders and transit foamers out there. Have you noticed that some buses have been running with minimal to No AC? I noticed that some of the 5100-5200 Gilligs struggle during the summer with the AC. Especially if those buses run from the South Phoenix Yard. The West Phoenix Yard actually those buses run good AC. Just an observation. Not sure about the Valley Metro Tempe or Mesa Yard buses. Those I had no AC issues with those.
