NEIGHBORHOOD ATTRACTIONS:

Sierra House is located in the Melrose Paradise neighborhood of Phoenix, north of downtown, nestled between the Phoenix Mountains Preserve to the South and Paradise Valley and Scottsdale with all of their restaurants and shopping to the Southeast. State Route 51 is less that half a mile away and that will take you to Downtown Phoenix/the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Getting around the Phoenix metro area is easiest by car. If you don't have a vehicle, Uber and Lyft do service the entire Valley area, but if you're looking to try something futuristic that is only offered (currently) in 2 cities in the US, Phoenix and San Francisco, Waymo is a driver-less transportation alternative to traditional ride sharing apps and is typically less expensive as well.

There are several fantastic dining options nearby -

Breakfast/Coffee -

Chompie's - This is a New York style deli. The fresh bagels and bialys are highly recommended. Don't forget to try the pastries as well.
Dunkin' - a national favorite
Press Coffee - a local coffee shop
Scooter's Coffee - a drive-thru coffee and smoothie shop

Lunch -

Bootlegger's - This is a hip BBQ joint that offers slow smoked meats, sides, and shared plates. Make sure to try one of their famous Moonshine cocktails and their Deviled Eggs! Happy Hour is 3-6 Monday through Friday.
