Fodor's Expert Review Mill Avenue Shops
Tempe
Neighborhood
Named for the landmark Hayden Flour Mill, this is one of the Valley's favorite walk-and-shop experiences. Directly west of the Arizona State University campus and just steps from a light-rail stop, Mill Avenue is an active melting pot of students, artists, residents, and tourists. Shops include some locally owned stores and midrange chains, as well as many bars and restaurants. The Valley Art Theater is a Mill Avenue institution and Tempe's home of indie cinema.
