23 Must-See Phoenix Scottsdale Antique Shopping and Dining Experiences

You can skip along and find a spot whether you need a place to eat or jump in a store. This list is a mix of restaurants with shopping so if you need to stop for some energy, I list a close by location. We cannot be hangry when we shop now, can we? *wink*

A Day of Phoenix Antique and Home Stores
+ Outdoor Shopping and Dining

Not sure where to start? This is how I would plan a day starting from one side of town to the other.

If starting in Phoenix, start from top and work down to the bottom of list.

If coming from Scottsdale, start from the bottom of list to top.

Skip a few spots and start this list over and hit the places you didn’t make the next day. You could have a full day of shopping and eating to last you at least three days!

(Total trip: approx. 20 miles with stops, all stop are within 13 miles)

Begin in Phoenix

1. Luci’s at the Orchard – (food) outdoor/indoor market. Breakfast/lunch spot.

3. Last Chance – (bargain basement) 1 of 2 Nordstrom bargain basements in the country. Clothing and where Nordstrom returns go to die. People make a full-tine living selling these goods on eBay!

Start again from the top another day, or work your way from the bottom of the list back up to head back to Phoenix!

Shopping + dining malls

I included them in the above list but for easy reference – here they are:

Kierland Commons, Biltmore Fashion Park, Scottsdale Quarter or the indoor mall, Scottsdale Fashion Square has an impressive luxury wing.

Diana Elizabeth thought of a few more spots and probably will continue to do so once this publishes – there are too many good places! Federal Pizza has one of the best wedge salads. I would love to know where you often frequent and take your visiting friends, let me know in the comments!
