During these unprecedented times, one of the hardest-hit industries is dining. We all fondly remember going out to eat in the pre-pandemic days, but it’s been hard for many people to do so. We at the Wolf Howl wanted to share our favorite restaurants in a local business spotlight!
Mingle and Graze is a Chandler spot serving up the prettiest cheese boards in town. Located on Arizona Ave., Mingle and Graze is a vital local business in Downtown Chandler. We at the Wolf Howl highly recommend this spot!
48 S San Marcos Pl, Chandler, AZ 85225
West Alley BBQ, a black-owned business in the heart of Downtown Chandler, is another staff favorite. This Tennessee-style spot serves up some of the most authentic and delicious barbeque in the valley.
111 W Boston St, Chandler, AZ 85225
RigaTony’s is a great family friendly restaurant for classic Italian food! It’s a little further, but this spot is still such a favorite of the Wolf Howl staff that we host our annual senior dinner here!

Peixoto is a coffee shop with house-roasted beans grown on their family farm in Brazil. A local business in the heart of Downtown that’s just a short walk away from Chandler High is a great destination for any coffee-lover.
