If you are looking for more lunch type stuff stop in to the Pro's Ranch Market on Central. Be aware of the "casual" environment, meaning that the servers do not have any type of uniform, and there is no hostess stand (although mixed reviews on Yelp point to attentive employees), and you may be asked to look after yourself for periods of time. Only open on Saturday and Sunday from 8AM - 12PM, it serves great breakfast food in a casual environment, providing indoor and outdoor seating in their 2.5 acre pecan grove. Since your tired muscles need sustenance after your hike (whether or not it was actually all that intensive) swing by The Grove Cafe at South 27th Ave. area, and it is packed with restaurants, in case one catches your eye that's not listed here. If you're coming from South Mountain, stay within the Central Ave. Also bring sunscreen if you plan to be out there after the sun comes up, but remember to leave before it gets too hot!Īfter hiking, Phoenix is host to an astounding amount of restaurants open on Sunday. Don't forget to bring snacks and lots of water since even though there's no sun, it's still dry and dehydration comes faster than you might estimate. If you're worried about where to hike, check out the maps the city has for both parks, North and South. For the month of July the Silent Sunday for South Mountain is the 8th and for North Mountain it's the 22nd. Both open at 5 AM and the best thing about these two parks is that once a month the City of Phoenix hosts what they call Silent Sundays, when the whole day the roads in the two parks are closed to vehicles and only allow on non-motorized transportation, hence the silence. The two best places to go are also the two most obvious: South Mountain and North Mountain Parks. One of the best things to try, especially if you have a athletic person to impress, would be to go hiking early, before the sun comes up. One things that's great about Sundays is that it's perfect to do outdoor activities, even here in Phoenix, even during the summer. After all, vegan dining should be about more than just fries and a salad.Sunday is a great day to have a relaxed and casual date, that doesn't require too much planning. I'll also try to point out "don't bother" places. This site will highlight restaurants and retailers that I think are okay for animal-friendly consumers. The greater Phoenix area has more to offer than you'd expect for people with vegetarian and vegan lifestyles. Hopefully Treehouse Vegan will get their baked goods into the Phoenix Public Market soon so we’ll have another downtown vegan desert option. Their second location on Central north of Van Buren is only open Monday-Friday from 7:00 a.m. location is open Monday -Friday: 6:00 a.m. The chocolate chip cookie suffered from being too dry.įor quick vegan eats, they also have homemade hummus on the menu.įair Trade Café’s 1st Ave. It was a cake-like brownie and if there were nuts, I didn’t notice. My favorite was the vegan banana nut cookie, which was soft and “almost like grandma’s banana bread.” The vegan brownie was a close second.
We ordered our typical “one of each please” and brought home a vegan brownie, chocolate chip cookie and banana nut cookie.
Since we didn’t have any desert waiting for us at home, we ventured over to Fair Trade Café on 1 st Ave and Portland St. They kindly offered me a vegan breakfast burrito instead… So much for that little bit of happiness. We were sad to learn the Conspire in downtown Phoenix no longer carries vegan donuts and cupcakes.
