Grayhawk Golf Club Offers Four Patio Dining Experiences

The change of seasons brings renewed interest in al fresco dining. The restaurants at North Scottsdale’s Grayhawk Golf Club offer four unique patio dining experiences highlighted by appealing golf course views in a distinctive Sonoran Desert setting.

“We look forward to this time of year,” said Brian Bevard, director of operations for Grayhawk Golf Club. “All of our restaurants maximize indoor-outdoor seating options with all of the great weather, the views, the sunsets. People love it here. And we’re open to everyone. It’s fairly common for them to say ‘we thought you were private.’ We’re completely public, always have been.”

The Quill Creek Café, located in the clubhouse, opens to a spacious patio overlooking the Raptor golf course, lake and McDowell Mountains. It offers traditional tables as well as casual high-top and lakeside lounge areas. It’s open daily for lunch and dinner, and hosts “Live at Grayhawk” (weather permitting) Wednesday evenings 5-8:30 pm featuring live music, food and drink specials. 

My concept for the patios at Grayhawk was very simple. Provide a combination of fully covered, shaded, and open areas all looking at the rear view of the golf course and the far view of the mountains. We wanted to make it feel intimate, small spaces, yet flexible, to hold after-tournament gatherings or holiday events.

Phil’s Grill, Grayhawk’s 19^th hole named after the club’s TOUR ambassador, Phil Mickelson, offers similar views as nearby Quill Creek Café, along with tables, campfire-style lounge area and comfortable alcove.

Open for breakfast and lunch, The Morning Joint coffee shop offers a shady, pet-friendly patio to enjoy morning coffee, breakfast, fresh juices and smoothies.

Across Thompson Peak Parkway from the clubhouse, Grayhawk Golf Club’s Isabella’s Kitchen overlooks the Talon course, McDowell Mountains as well as the city lights in the Valley below.

Large garage-style doors roll up to bring the outdoors into the main dining room while windows surrounding the bar do the same. The patio wraps around the building to provide ample fully covered and partially covered space to encourage guests to relax and enjoy time with family and friends.
