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 opted for the all in package where Boojum coordinated with their preferred venders to handle about 90% of the arrangements and for a VERY reasonable price. Everyone brought their A game!! Food was delicious, music was fantastic (even with a last minute DJ swap due to an emergency), and the grounds were stunning! They did everything right. Multiple beautiful backdrops available for the big day. We chose the grand fountain but soooo many other great options. Even the little things. Everyone warned us how hard it is to eat on your wedding day but as soon as we left the ceremony area to the backstage, there was a waiter for my wife and I along with the bridal party with appetizers and drink orders. Jennifer the day of works as your wedding coordinator and she does a fantastic job! Everything was so well run and on time as well. Everyone told me this was the best venue and the best experience they ever had at a wedding and I know it wasn't just them being nice! If you're the type of person who wants to be able to say you got married at Wrigley, fine. But if your focus is the best possible experience for your guests and yourselves, Boojum is by far the way to go!! These guys throw an EPIC wedding and party!!!

They offer multiple ways to visit, including the self-guided audio tour, Behind-The-Scenes tour, Apprentice Shelters Hike, Golden Hour Sunset Hike, Sonoran Desert Plant Hike and Tasting. The most popular visitation experience is through the self-guided audio tour, which my partner and I opted for on a Sunday morning during their last slot at 10:45am and purchased the additional matching card set. We parked in the small, gravel parking lot out front, walked to the gift shop entrance to start our audio tour. Since we were about 15 minutes late, we were advised to start a few stations into the tour and follow through until its completion. While it's clearly outlined on its website to bring your own earphones, we forgot to, but we were provided with equipment to borrow. We also downloaded the app for listening. This day was particularly hot, so we opted to skip over the outside stations and instead listen to their tour while sitting in the inside stations. The site in general is not very air-conditioned, although some stations do have some air-conditioning. I would highly recommend bringing an umbrella to shade from the sun as well as a hat and handheld personal fan. The experience speaks for itself. But I'd recommend it for anyone in the area with free time in the morning and an appreciation for art.

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 highly recommend this venue for any function - up to 250 ppl I think it was. The manager on duty, Jennifer Lajoie who is the Director of Events was so very helpful and a joy. Kitchen and catering staff were on point too.

With that in mind, it's gonna be slammed on the weekend and you'll probably have to wait for a lane. If the kiddos are in tow, they'll enjoy playing the arcade games while you wait. You can sip on one of their overpriced alcoholic lemonades or other super-charged cocktails as well. Once on a lane and after you've found bowling balls (which people here don't tend to return to the racks after their games), you'll probably be disappointed to see that you'll be playing with STRING pins. Yep, that's a bummer. Your lane will be blinking with all different colors of lights, which is great if you like that vibe but will be a distraction if you actually want to concentrate on your game. Bowling etiquette isn't really observed here, as most lanes are full of families, kids, or leisurely bowlers. So that's the vibe here. Good fit for some, but not for all.

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.

On this visit, we had the Melabella, Charred Mozzarella & Pesto, and Classic bruschetta, along with the White Mountain Pizza, Olive Farmer's Caesar Salad, and their special Meatball Sandwich. I usually stick with my favorites--the Drunken Tomato & Pepperoni pizza or Olive Farmer's Rigatoni Bolognese--but decided to branch out. Everything was delicious! You can tell they use quality ingredients, including flour imported from Italy, and it really makes a difference. Honestly, it's hard to go wrong here. Special shoutout to Wendy, the manager, who is always so friendly and helpful. The entire staff is welcoming and makes every visit enjoyable. Great food, great ingredients, and great people. At this point, I should probably just set up a permanent table! P.S. Don't forget the gelato! It's THAT good.

Apart from the EVOO, we enjoy the garlic and vanilla bean flavors a lot, but they offer so many other varieties. One thing I love is they provide recipe cards with suggestions on how to use their olive oils, vinegars etc. to make awesome dishes. That's how we first discovered the incredible vanilla bean olive oil waffle recipe. Another great service they provide is the ability to sample most everything. The store features other local products like jams, honey, granola etc. They have the OliveSpa line of body care products also. So many great items to shop for! Many years ago we took the tour and learned all about how the olive oil is made. And you cannot forget the Del Piero Kitchen where you can come dine for breakfast, lunch, dinner or brunch. Oftentimes on weekends they have festivals or live music on the patio. It's just a happening place - definitely worth checking out.

We ate breakfast everyday with our team in the lobby and the staff was absolutely wonderful. We didn't use the pool this time around as we were there for work.

This and the flat pillows kept us up all night so we didn't get a ton of sleep while on this trip. Not to mention, we requested they clean our room while we stayed there and they only ended up cleaning our room once because we called and asked. Overall, decent stay but it definitely could have been better.
