What can we say... WOW! Boojum Tree was the wedding venue of our dreams! The venue itself is so…read morebeautiful, perfectly matching our vibe with its greenery, eclectic decorations, warm lights, stone, wood, and water features. The settings within it are so varied and fun to hang out in and explore, and many of our guests came to tell us how gorgeous it was. Moving on from looks, Boojum Tree also has fantastic package deals, which made planning for the wedding so much less stressful from out of state. To have a set of great vendors already included (bar, catering, DJ, and day-of-coordinator), as well as decorations, silverware, linens, chairs, ceremony equipment, etc etc was the best thing and really helped us be present and enjoy our wedding. Our day-of-coordinator, Jennifer, was also incredible! She took great care of us, staying organized, moving around flowers and decorations, ensuring our wedding favors were at each table, coordinating with our other vendors, helping with an emergency dress bustling, keeping us on time, and hundreds of other things that we did not see behind the scenes. She clearly works hard and is amazing at what she does. This was the perfect venue for the best day of our lives and booking with Boojum was the single best decision we made. We cannot sing their praises enough and could not have had the wedding we did without them. We are so thankful to the team that made it happen!

We were there for 3 hours and only had two drinks but could have had more. It seemed like they had enough staff but it was busy and I don't think they are used to that.

The hostess was friendly and sweet but maybe she could help take orders when busy. It was our first time there and I don't plan on going back. There are too many other places.

The annual Charity event draws a great crowd and this was the 1st time it Scottsdale Hangar One hosted the event. The support from the staff was great as far as getting access to everything needed for setup both inside and out. The location is unique as it gives you the ability to truly transform your ideas and shape your image. While I was setting up, the staff was very helpful in getting what was needed and supporting any of the activities going on. As far as attending, the atmosphere, as well as The ambience, were put together very well. If you have a special event that you're trying to not just host, but also impress, I would definitely look at Hangar One as an option.

I've hit up Lucky Strike North Scottsdale twice: once on a Friday for some bowling and once on a…read moreWednesday to play some arcade games. Located in a shopping center along with Harkins, several restaurants, and other businesses, parking won't be a problem in their free lot. When I think of a bowling alley, I think of the run-down establishments full of cigarette smoke from back in the day. Lucky Strike is not that. It's a fancy bowling alley. And for that, you'll pay a premium. Both their bowling rates and their drink prices are quite expensive. With that being said, me and my mom had a fun time bowling. On a Friday evening, it wasn't too busy. Mostly high school kids. Upon my return, I stopped by to check out the arcade portion of Lucky Strike North Scottsdale. On Wednesdays, arcade games are half off. Which ends up being a pretty good deal. It's not a large arcade, you have your choice of 25 or so games. My favorites were the Jurassic Park arcade game and the "full size" basketball game. The arcade features a mix of video game style games and carnival style games. You can redeem your points for various prizes. I wasn't too impressed with the prizes, and you have to spend to get a good one. Two of the arcade games were malfunctioning too. One gives out playing cards but the gift portion of the game wasn't working. Another, the full size basketball game, was operational but wasn't tracking points. A couple of hiccups to fix, for sure. If you're looking to have some food while you're there, Lucky Strike has a full menu. It looks pretty good, but I haven't tried any of the food. Given the prices for what you get, it's not somewhere I would stop by often, but I do like the vibes.

When we were done and looking through the store he would help talk through the different flavors and types of oils they carry/make.

They were very busy as it was the last day for the sangria social and the day before Mother's Day but the outdoor seating is pretty vast and the musician was wonderul to listen to. I would highly recommend for a day date, time with friends or just a fun activity!

They offer a tour and a fun store that you can get olive oil, spreads, chocolate bars and tangential products. You can sample the olive oil but there's nothing to dip it in so you'd just be ingesting pure oil; it would have been nice to have a pretzel or bread to dip! I would have wanted everything to be made there but for example the pastas and pasta sauces weren't. And they sell other products from elsewhere. If I'm making a trip here, I'd want to buy things that are primarily made here. They also have several dining options (not sure how they're all related). I was pleased with the food we ordered: huge artichoke calzone (soft dough and good filling) for $22 and fish and chips (excellent fries), as well as a bakery that sells cupcakes, scones, cakes, cookies, brownies as well as gelato. We liked the cookies and scone though the latter didn't have the usual consistency of a scone). It was interesting that their Italian cookies were actually slightly cheaper purchased at the counter vs the already packaged box. They also sell cerreta individually wrapped candies. They have indoor and outdoor seating if you want to eat there. Employees were very friendly. I'm sure it is a more pleasurable experience going when there aren't a lot of crowds, as it is a tourist spot and has overflow parking.

Not too much of a biggie , at least I had food at the house. The hotel staff is very friendly, I simply stated my name, showed my ID, and the staff was able to find my day reservation quickly. The front desk has the exact same Bartesian bar that I have at home. I found it kinda lofty to charge $15 for a cocktail when all they have to do is insert a pod in the machine and hit a button so I passed on having a cocktail. If I did not own a Bartesian, I would have thought it was amazing the front desk makes cocktails. The lobby to get to the pool is very clean and quiet. The pool is also very quiet: only 8 people including myself were at the pool. You don't have to hunt for towels (clean ones are the empty lounge chairs and extras are in storage). The pool water was extremely cold. Everyone that went in it cringed and immediacy got out. The entire time I was there, the pool basically stayed empty.
