Haunted dining at Casey Moore’s Oyster House
Several shopping and dining areas are nearby. Broadway Road has fast and casual options like the locally owned Burger Rush, which serves mesquite-grilled burgers. Downtown Tempe, just over a mile away, is home to some of the area’s most popular eateries. “Casey Moore’s Oyster House is a must-see,” says Tyler Estes, a Realtor with Compass Arizona who’s sold homes in the area for 13 years. The restaurant’s located in a house that’s rumored to be haunted, and diners can enjoy bar food and seafood outdoors on the large patio or test their bravery by dining inside; neighbors have reported seeing an eerie glow and dancing spirits in the upstairs dining room.
Most of downtown’s shopping is on Mill Avenue, where ASU sports fans can pick up branded gear from Fan Outfitters and crafters can buy supplies at TuTugether. Tempe Farmers Market offers local produce, and Whole Foods Market and Safeway are nearby grocery stores.
