Wine & Dine

In a town that knows how to celebrate—from weddings under Arizona skies to lively downtown gatherings—Cold Pony has quickly become a standout presence. Behind the charm, creativity, and craft cocktails is owner Kelly Tolbert, a woman who saw an opportunity to bring something fresh, memorable, and beautifully designed to Prescott’s event scene.

There’s something powerful about cooking with intention. Lighting a candle on a Tuesday night. Trying a new flavor. Slowing down long enough to savor what’s on the plate — and who’s sitting across from you.

Real connection often starts in the kitchen, where aromas fill the air, hands brush at the stove, and flavor becomes an experience you create together.

At Spice Traveler, the shelves are filled with ingredients that do more than season a dish — they inspire it. It’s about bold blends, warming spices, and sweet finishes that turn a simple dinner into something memorable.

Tucked on the west side of Prescott, Willow Tree Tapas & Wine has quickly become more than just a place to enjoy a great meal. It’s a warm, welcoming gathering spot where neighbors connect and new friendships begin. 

Tucked just a few blocks away from downtown Prescott, LazyG Brewhouse has been a favorite for locals and visitors seeking craft beer, good food, and relaxed vibes. Now, under the progressive vision of owners Jim and Jean-Marie Bellington, LazyG is entering an exciting new chapter—one that continues its blend of live music, community spirit, and even a place to stay the night.

“This summer, we made that experience even more memorable by way of expanding our concept of craft and comfort,” said Jean-Marie.

The big news? In early July, LazyG unveiled its brand-new “bed-and-brew” lodging. Think cozy comfort via trendy accommodations just steps from the taproom. “It’s always been about creating an experience, not just a brewery. Having stayed in similar accommodations in the U.S., the charm and location of the LazyG Bed & Brew on Leroux Street was just what we were looking for,” she added.

Tucked in the heart of Prescott Valley, Rafter Eleven is known for its smooth espresso, fine wines, and—surprise!—its dazzling array of gourmet olive oils and balsamic vinegars that can take your healthy cooking to the next level. Every month, food lovers gather around Chef Deb’s demonstration kitchen, where she turns ordinary ingredients into extraordinary meals using Rafter Eleven’s signature oils and vinegars. It’s part show, part tasting party, and part culinary school—right here in your hometown.

Nestled in the heart of downtown Prescott at the Old Firehouse Plaza, Gypsy’s Café & Bakery is more than just a cozy spot for a warm cup of coffee and fresh baked goods—it’s a heartfelt expression of one woman’s journey, passion, and love for community.

Summer in Prescott is pure magic: warm days, cool evenings, and a community that knows how to savor every sun-drenched moment. Whether you’re gathering with friends for an afternoon patio date or lounging poolside with a good book, there’s no better way to celebrate the season than with a refreshing drink in hand. Luckily, Rafter Eleven is here to make your summer even sweeter and more delicious.

Nestled in the heart of Prescott, the Fairweather Social Bar has emerged as a vibrant new venue catering to locals and visitors seeking a welcoming atmosphere. Opened by industry veterans Aaron Grafe and Lindsay Fox, this establishment is designed to be more than just a bar; it aims to foster community connections and provide a space where people can unwind and be creative without the rowdiness often associated with other nightlife spots.

There’s something magical about a kitchen—the aroma of fresh coffee, the warmth of a home-cooked meal, and the joy of gathering with loved ones. The kitchen isn’t just where food is made; it’s where stories are shared, laughter echoes, and connections are built. In Prescott Valley, that same sense of warmth, quality, and connection can be found at Rafter Eleven, a local gem that brings people together just like a family kitchen does.

Nestled in the heart of town, Rafter Eleven is more than just a coffee and wine bar—it’s a place where the community gathers to savor life’s little pleasures. Whether it’s sipping on a velvety European-style cappuccino in the morning, enjoying a glass of fine wine in the evening, or indulging in a homemade bowl of soup made fresh each week, every visit feels like coming home.

But what truly makes Rafter Eleven special? It’s the way this charming spot turns everyday moments into meaningful experiences. Friday nights come alive with music, where locals unwind, toast to the weekend, and soak in the welcoming atmosphere. Spectacular cooking classes offer a hands-on experience for food lovers eager to refine their skills and create something delicious from scratch. And, of course, cozy lunches bring friends and family together over comfort food that warms both the heart and soul.
