Electric Pickle, a groundbreaking new concept combining pickleball, outdoor entertainment, and globally-inspired cuisine, is set to debut its 4.5-acre flagship location in Tempe on Dec. 16. Located near the I-10 and Warner Road, this highly anticipated venue will offer a unique atmosphere for pickleball and upscale dining.
The soon-to-open Tempe location marks the brand’s first step in a nationwide rollout, with additional venues planned for top U.S. markets (locations include Las Vegas; Roseville, Calif.; Katy, Tex.; Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., and Reno, Nev.). The site will feature nine state-of-the-art pickleball courts, four of which are covered, with private cabanas for an elevated experience.
“Pickleball has taken this country by storm, and with Electric Pickle, we’re aiming to further elevate the experience,” says Paul Frederick, founder and co-CEO of Electric Pickle and Eureka! Restaurant Group, in a recent press release. “We’re blending our love for the fast-paced, action-packed game with our passion for delivering upscale culinary offerings in a vibrant and social atmosphere.”
Electric Pickle will feature a two-story restaurant designed by Brick & West. The space will combine modern design elements with lush greenery, creating an inviting atmosphere for guests to play, dine, and socialize. The menu promises inventive dishes and bold cocktails, with standout items such as sticky short ribs, garlic noodles and shrimp, truffle-bacon mashed potato pizza, and four-layer carrot cake.
Electric Pickle goes beyond pickleball, offering a range of activities for guests of all ages. The venue includes bocce ball courts, full-swing golf simulators, ping pong tables, and a sprawling lawn with a live music stage and cornhole. Four of the pickleball courts will be equipped with cutting-edge AI technology and an engaging gameplay experience. For frequent players, the venue will offer memberships and exclusive benefits such as unlimited gameplay and priority court reservations.
Reservations for pickleball courts and dining will open two weeks before the grand opening on Dec. 16.
