    Such a cool spot! It's outdoors but there's plenty of shade and misters, so it stays comfortable even on the hottest days. They had a DJ when we were there, which gave the place a fun and lively vibe but it wasn't so loud that you couldn't actually talk to the people at your table. There's tons of seating and lots of different food options, so everyone can find something they like. Staff there seemed friendly as well. It reminded me of an outdoor mall food court but in a good way! Definitely a great place to hang out, grab some food, have a few drinks to enjoy a Sunday Funday.

    Churchill... woooohooo!!! What a really cool concept for a food hall! Friday nights they have a DJ and he is bumping! What a vibe!! Atmosphere: Its giving party over here aint nothing over here! Drinks: I got the Long Cool Woman at So Far So Good!!! It was pretty good and little sweet. I asked for light ice and got a cup full! Altogether this drink menu is pretty impressive. Wish they offered flights so I wouldn't have to consume a whole drink just to taste it. Didn't see one on the menu. Could've missed it. Also ordered a Pizza from Freak Brother's Pizza. It waa pretty standard pizza. Nothing really to write home about, but it will do. Location: Located at a hot spot in town. This place is not far from other happening bars and restaurants. Parking: We took an Uber, but there are parking lots and street parking available. Please read all street signs. I would be back to give it another try on a Friday of course because the DJ is here. Would try a different cocktail and food place!

    We grabbed brunch at a nearby spot and then walked over to The Churchill for dessert. We stopped by the Scookie Bar which serves warm cookies topped with ice cream. It was a good treat and the service was friendly. The Churchill itself is a cool space with different food spots and in one place including pizza, burgers, and drinks. When we visited, there were small groups hanging out, enjoying their food and drinks, and watching sports on the TV's. As we were leaving, a party bus pulled up! Definitely a fun spot to hang out with friends!

    Skookie with vegan Oreo ice cream. Yum!

    We tried Freak Bros, Stoop Kid, and Skoookie Bar. The kids loved Freak Bros and we ordered a second pizza. The guys behind the counter were quick, and helpful. Stoopkid's mac balls were spicier that expected. I loved them, but my kids might have been slightly scarred. The veggie burger was surprisingly not spicy, and was still great! Skokie bar was great, and has Vegan and Gluten-friendly options, just be preppy to wait for a few extra minutes for dietary accommodations. The whole spot is an open air space with tons of tables and is great for feeding several kids who want to bounce around and like options. All in all, we will be back!

    The Churchill is a spot where they turned containers into bars, shops, and pizza joints! Super cute concept and a little bit for everyone. They have two different bars, an açaí place, shops and a pizza spot. I like that you can grab a drink, order some pizza and sit anywhere. They also have huge industrial fans so it isn't too hot but I like coming here when the sun goes down. They had a good amount of tvs and sometimes djs. The service is pretty good as well.

    A safe space to come and relax

    Cuteeee!!! I was here once before for a Halloween party. This time, I wanted to show off what downtown Phoenix has to offer! You're outdoors, but indoor with a nice breeze from the water misters, and shade! This area is perfect to meet up with pals or to even go alone and read a book while you have din din. They have phone charging plugs throughout. I seen a few humans studying here and some just drinking and playing corn toss which is here for your pleasure to play. It's definitely a nice chill vibe with bars and restaurants and also has a boutique or 2. Chill place, in a chill spot! There's plenty of parking around the premises!

    Such a lovely visit to Churchill this weekend. How lucky o was to snag a front parking spot. I use and have the park mobile app so that's what's used on the perimeter there. Saw a lot of people strolling around as there's a few cool places all around. Inside is so nice and shaded and all the shop people are so friendly and helpful there. It was busy but nice and spacious too. Don't forget to take a cute selfie by the cactus wall behind the beautiful main bar. Couches, tables... all types of seating here and lots of standing around to socialize with pizza or a beverage. Good times all around at Churchill.

    This was such a cool experience. I've never smoked cigars in my life but I've always liked the look of cigar lounges and find cigar boxes aesthetic to be very refined and prestigious. My bf's brother suggested we come here after dinner, where they have an extensive menu for cocktails, wine, bourbons, Scotches. They have a speakeasy vibe and Art deco style decor that I always loved. The bartender Cristian was super knowledgeable about the bourbon list when my bf inquired. I ordered an espresso martini, which made the overall experience so much cooler. There were some interesting walks of life for ppl watching too.

    This is a funky cool gathering space where you can order cocktails, eat food, or play corn hole. The walls are painted with interesting and vibrant art allowing for fun photo opportunities. They also have a succulent wall with a lovely bench in front, nice for relaxing or another photo opportunity. Water stations are available. The restaurants are self service order on a kiosk. Pick up your food when your number is called. The seating area has heaters and fans available, used as necessary depending on the weather. There is plenty of parking in the area.

    Interior- cool lighting

    What a cool place. It's like a big garage with different shops, bars and restaurants. We were celebrating my daughter's birthday either cocktails and this was the perfect spot. There are fans but it was shaded too. There are many TVs so this would be a great spot to catch the game. We ended up getting cocktails from Brill Line - margaritas, a piña colada mix and some beers. Two rounds for four people was about $96 before tip. You place your order at each of the businesses, leave your card to run a tab, there is really not table service. They will come around and pick up glasses after the fact. Really cool space and I can see that this probably has a super fun vibe, especially on the weekends.

    1/12/25 FYI. Private event.

    Quality/Quantity - What a cool find! My daughter wanted ice cream on this cold winter night... So we came here to visit Scookie; see my other Yelp review. 9k square feet with 10 businesses; see my pictures or their website. Atmosphere - Private event in of the place. So events are bookable. They also host pop ups, fundraisers, DJ, etc. Open 6 days a week from 10am to 10pm or 1:30am, closed Mondays. Metered street parking (until 11pm). We saw some parking lots, but we did not know what belonged to whom?!?! As it is very poorly lit and we could not see the signs. Service - Good, and also depends on what you buy, eat, or drink. Price - $9 + tip at Scookie. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2018 and it brings such a cool vibe to Downtown Phoenix.

    Great place to gather and host events especially during the cool months. A classy and happening food court for grownups. They have two killer cocktail bars. I was delighted that they are happy to create delicious custom mocktails. To grab a drink and a bite before a concert downtown, my party and I enjoyed a hummus, veggie and pita platter from Freak Brothers Pizza. Super fun vibe!!!

    The Churchill is a trendy industrial building housing several eateries and bars. What a nice casual way to enjoy some food and beverage. It's located in downtown Phoenix. Street metered or lot parking.

    Ask the Community - The Churchill

    How about parking?

    There's a free parking lot across the street in addition to street parking!

    Does it have AC?

    The Churchill is cooled by two evaporative cooling units, a misting system and two 16 foot diameter fans.

    Are kids allowed?

    You bet!

    Was it hot in there at night? I noticed it's all open and that can be scary during AZ summers

    There are several above and ground fans. It's bearable, but it's Arizona summer bearable.

    Are they dog friendly?

If it's your first visit, the AZ Hot Fried Chicken Sandwich is an absolute must. It's perfectly crispy with just the right amount of heat and packed with flavor in every bite. One of my favorite traditions is stopping by after work on Thursdays to take advantage of the $5 IPA special. It's the perfect way to unwind, catch up with friends, and enjoy some of Arizona's finest locally crafted beer. Whether you're there for the food, the beer, or the lively patio atmosphere, Arizona Wilderness never disappoints. If you're in the neighborhood--or even if you're not--it's well worth the visit. Highly recommended!

Made the long drive from Gilbert to see what the hype was about and let me say....that soft serve was WORTH IT! I got the swirl and it was soooooo refreshing and delicious. I have seen people comment that they were too strong (I don't see the problem or maybe some people don't really like tequila) but mine was perfect! Not strong at all. The only reason I didn't give this updated review a 5-I ordered the banh mi sando and the sandwich was so dry. Chicken was dry. The cilantro wasn't chopped I had to pick out long stems. Also I got the AZ frosè and the rosemary syrup was just way too pungent to enjoy the whole beverage. I wished it had been more balanced. Especially when the French fries are heavily seasoned with rosemary--a bit too much.

    I'm absolutely OBSESSED with this place!…read more We went here to celebrate my friend's 30th birthday, and it did not disappoint! I've never been to a bar/speakeasy that was so immersive from start to finish! The vibe was very 70s flight , funky, fun, and totally unique. They give you a boarding pass and a pin, and the flight we were on was from New York to Tokyo! You get a welcome drink with your ticket, along with some peanuts, which was such a nice touch. The welcome drink was light and refreshing, and the peanuts had a nice salty and spicy kick. The service was prompt and attentive, and the flight attendants had some great recommendations. You even experience turbulence during the experience, which really adds to the immersion. You honestly feel like you're on an actual plane! The drinks are themed around New York and Tokyo, so there's a nice variety to choose from. Overall, this was such a fun and unique experience. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun way to grab drinks with friends or even for a date!

    Want an amazingly unique themed cocktail session with great food (Captain's table only) & some…read morelight entertainment? Get on board with Carry On! Lets cover how you get there... as tickets & seats are limited release, Monday mornings at 10am AZ time, for the following Friday to Thursday only. Midweek tickets are available for seating & buying drinks only so spur of the moment bookings. But seriously recommend the Captain's table seats (which you can read below) 1) sign up for Sunday email blasts of the booking link (didnt work in my experience, but read on) 2) either get email link or wait for Monday 10am & next week of tickets (should) be released). Now in my first experience, neither the Sunday email or Monday morning release happened, maybe because they had plenty of tickets left for the midweek? Not an issue previously Yelped about so thought I'd add their customer service was absolutely wonderful & responsive to send the ticket link & helpful with allergies & setting up a birthday surprise. The ticket options are the following. $25 to get in, sit & buy cocktails & watch the other +-18 people get free cocktails & absolutely wonderful 4 plate small bites. As you can see from all the pics the food is fantastic & themed for the trip. The Captain's table tickets either come in 2 pack or 4 pack (seater tables) & well worth the experience. Now the website has a lot of info to read, one of the things it lists is a 20% "service charge" & that gratuity isn't included. Dont be concerned with this, ill mention it at the end. My advice to the management is to reword this sentence or it could be very misleading & a put off in this day & age as now I'm thinking i need to add 30-40% to the bill for service charge & gratuity... & believe me all the staff worked hard & are well deserving. About 5-10 mins before take off, head to the welcome desk at the Wren & Wolf, pick up your boarding passes & walk outside about 30 seconds around the corner to stand in line. Previous review talked about long waiting, didnt experience that as our doors opened bang on time & one of the Captain's checked out ID & boarding passes. We moved through a rather small beautifully decorated check in counter with period 70s time zone clock & boarded, to be shown our table. The interior is extremely comfortable, other than the 3x 4 seater Captain's tables, the rest was wrap around bench sofas & 70s low swivel soft chairs. As your eyes adjust to the dim lighting, the interior is all 70s wood, at one end is a full sized bar decorated with some chrome & lots of unique matching 70s style cocktail shakers. After the doors close, the stewardesses, dressed in 70s style single piece uniforms, run through a quick preflight take on the safety talk, while you sip on a welcome complimentary cocktail & nuts. Whilst at this point, our stewardess brings us our first course of absolutely delicious, mini NY style bagel, lox, lashings of cream cheese & topped with caviar; all whilst explaining we get 2 cocktail choices each included with our price. The announcement is made to depart, a rumble is felt below your feet & the LED screens (which you've not noticed all over, looking like large airplane windows) light up & the curtains are raised to reveal the Carry On terminal.... we taxi as the LED windows display a HD video of take off, all synchronised to the various angles & sides of the plane, meaning each window has a unique & different perspective of the take off. Our theme night was NY to Tokyo, so we took off, flew over Manhattan with the Twin Towers & carried on into the clouds. The whole time these windows are their own entertainment, finally circling Japan & landing. Next, 2 Japanese pot stickers with King Crab. Empty plates are swiftly cleared & its not long until our next course Next up, Japanese Waygu skewers eated around a shitso leaf. Then finally one of the best NY cheesecakes I've had, using crushed up Heath bars. Cocktail menu is large, all kinds of unusual selections & half way through the trip, the Captain announces, Its Martini time & the Martini cart is rolled out to all. After we thought we were done, my wife is presented with a beautiful Happy Birthday Cocktail & signed napkin. We'll if my wife is having a 4th drink, so must I. I was advised this would be at my own cost, which is nice to remind folks, but even looking at their alacarte menu, prices were extremely reasonable.. & we've just had 7 cocktails between us included. As the plane comes to land, you feel the landing gear extending & the bill is handed out. Tere is where you pay the taxes & service charge, but the bill lists "gratuity" & believe me, everyone & the experience deserves 20% here. Theres a chance to add a very small additional 3-7%, for me 7% was $6 & yes the entire experience & service, including making my wife feel special on her birthday was amazing.

    What an unexpectedly fun night!…read more I honestly had no idea what I was walking into when a friend told me I had to check out Bikini Lounge because they know I'm drawn to all things eclectic. They were absolutely right. From the moment the friendly bouncer smiled and said, "Step right on in," I was hooked. Yoooow!! The first DJ was incredible. He was spinning all kinds of trip-hop, indie, electronic, and remix-style tracks that had everybody partyin'. It wasn't your typical dance music, but every song seemed to connect with somebody in the room. The crowd was incredibly diverse, and it was so much fun watching people of every age and style dancing and nobody cared. The second DJ, a younger woman, shifted the vibe a bit and leaned more toward a younger crowd. It wasn't quite my style, so I took that opportunity to grab a seat at the bar and do what I apparently do best... chat with complete strangers. I'm a talker, and thankfully they seemed just as happy to strike up a conversation. This isn't some fancy cocktail lounge, and that's exactly the point. It's authentic. There were people dancing at the bar, grooving in their booths, bouncing in their seats, and filling the dance floor with great energy. I came by myself, and within minutes a cool group of strangers invited me to squeeze into their booth like we'd all come together. That's the kind of place this is. At one point they even offered me a glass of beer from their pitcher. I politely declined (look at me making responsible life choices... sometimes), but then I realized almost everyone had pitchers! So I sauntered over to the bar. I did have to wait a bit; apparently chivalry doesn't extend to letting a woman cut the line, but once I reached the bartender, the service was fast and friendly. Every trip back to the bar was the same. No complaints there. As the night went on, the energy just kept building. Before I knew it, I was on the dance floor sweating, smiling, and dancing with complete strangers. After a while, I had to retreat to the patio just to catch my breath before heading back in for more. My ankles are still sore... and the glutes? Fuhgetabouttit! The best part of the night wasn't the music or even the drinks. It was the people. Every generation was represented. Every fashion style imaginable. Every personality. And somehow it all worked. There was this genuine sense of joy and community that you just don't find everywhere. If you're looking for polished and upscale, this probably isn't your spot. But if you want great music, a welcoming crowd, zero pretension, and one of those nights where you leave happier than you arrived... give Bikini Lounge a shot. I went in not knowing what to expect. I left wondering why I'd waited so long to go.
