Must Eats for Flagstaff or Sedona, AZ

my wife went to school at NAU so i can offer a few suggestions - in flagstaff, check out macy's or la bella via for breakfast. macy's is a vegan coffee shop with great coffee and surprisingly good food for vegan/vegetarian fare. and this is a dyed-in-the-wool carnivore talking. be warned that the crowd and clientele of macy's is really hippy/granola. if you can get over that it's actually really good. la bella via is next door and does a good breakfast if you can't get a table at macy's (it gets crowded, esp. on weekends).

beaver street brewery for dinner (it too gets crowded on weekends) and i have heard good things about tinderbox for dinner.

know less about sedona - we've eaten at picazzo pizza which is good, but we usually spend our summers in prescott rather than sedona.

have fun in az!

Great, thanks for the suggestions! And I'll hit up the OT board too -- hadn't thought of that.

How old is your daughter? Here are some things our family enjoyed.

Not sure I would classify any of these as "Must eats."

Believe it or not, there is a pretty good seafood restaraunt (elegant by Sedona's casual standards) called Shugrue's. My wife enjoyed it and I thought the chef must have some New Orleans training. It also has spectacular views of the red rocks.

In Williams, which is near Flagstaff, there is a touristy downtown where they have "old west gunfights" reenacted on the streets (nightly, I believe). There is a restaraunt called Pine Country that is nearby (right on the main street which happens to be Old Route 66) and the food is pretty good, if simple. Save room for homemade pies.

In Flagstaff, we enjoyed eating (and beverages) at Charleys in the old Weatherford Hotel. Nothing great, but generous portions with live music and a fun atmosphere.

Also in Sedona, we had Mexican food at Oaxaca and family breakfast at a place I think was called the Wagon Wheel. We also found a place that was a sports bar/restaraunt whose name I can't recall, but it had good sandwiches. It was almost across the street from Oaxaca.

If any of your group likes astronomy/science, go to the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff. You might also enjoy Meteor Crater that is a short drive away.

In Sedona, take the Pink Jeep tour.

In Flagstaff, Cottage Place Rest. just off Hwy 80. You'll thank me later.

The little one may enjoy the Arizona Snow Bowl just north of the city. Also, the south rim of the Grand Canyon is just about an hour away.
