Always fun to go there. It used to be hidden but since Covid folks have discovered its existence so it has more people than normal. Used to have it all to myself with my doggy. But the people are always friendly. Now and again a homeless individual may stop to rest there, but they are always respectful and kind. And so are all the visitors there. My dog gets happy to see other dogs there too.

Great adult entertainment. The dark side of sesame street. McNamara and team are the funniest but nicest most humble people. Staff is great. Bar is cheap. Give them your money.

This is one of the best kept secrets of Phoenix. Even with the heat of the summer I tried to take Skittles down there once a week. The block long waterfall is amazing. The statues there are so lifelike I posted them on my Facebook page. If youre looking for a place to have a very wonderful romantic picnic or even a family picnic get a blanket get some food and hit the spot.

This was a fabulous little place to watch a cozy play. The seats are very narrow which cost the review a star. They serve booze and the puppet plays are out of this world hysterical. The tickets are comparable to other theaters and it has a family theater feel to it. No fluff and gilding, just quality entertainment. I recommend but watch those seats.

I have seen many shows from all puppet players here. Its a great little theater. Location is near so many restaurants and coffee shops that are open late. The sound quality and acoustics are good and the stage is larger then it would seem to be from outside. Seats are decently comfortable.

Finally realize this place has a name. I called it the little park at Central Plaza. Its great for children as far as nice space for them to run around and at the same time to keep them in sight at all times. I will say that more adults take short walks and smoke breaks here at day time. But some of us walk our dogs there.I recently got a pup, and I enjoy taking here there between late evening to night time when it is cooler. There is a nive size water fountain which flows down to small river like space for her to swim. She loves it there and runs back and forth with her squeaky you, and sometimes the pinecones when I forget. I let get practice her swimming in the water and I know she is enjoying it.Other dog owners with bigger dogs may come through but the dogs are always well behaved and owners are courteous. Most pick up after their doggies, but every now and again one may look away.It is safe at night, though there is a homeless guy who may sit at a spot there now and again, he does not stay fornlong and is rather friendly if you say hi. Ofcourse you can always keep your eye open. There is plenty of lighting and the security there is on point.I encourage all to check out this little hidden gem.

Ok this place hides itself right of central below the BMO Harris building and is freaking awesome! If you visit the art museum, cross the street and take a look. Very tranquil place!

I went to go see the puppets in the all puppet players do their version of never ending story as a puppet show. If youve never gotten a chance to see the Puppet anarchy that goes on in any of their shows, you are really missing out. The show was enjoyable on its own the tickets were slightly higher price than I was expecting but still reasonably priced for a show of that magnitude. I also found that the concession stand had been moved deeper in which meant that there were less people clogging up the ticket arena which made that much easier than it had previously been.
