Electric Pickle, a 4.5-acre destination combining pickleball, outdoor entertainment, and a globally inspired two-story restaurant, has made its debut in Tempe. The facility hosts nine state-of-the-art pickleball courts, bocce ball courts, golf simulators, ping pong tables, yard games, and more. The indoor-outdoor space provides the perfect space to dine, unwind, and play a friendly or competitive game of pickleball.
Located off of the I-10 and Warner Road, Electric Pickle represents a new vision by the leaders of Eureka! Restaurant Group and sponsor Knighthead Capital Management, LLC. The Tempe location is the first of many locations to open throughout the U.S. The venue, designed by Brick & West, features an inviting mix of modern architecture, lush greenery, and vibrant colors. Visitors can play pickleball, dine at the expansive restaurant, and enjoy an array of entertainment options.
Electric Pickle has nine pickleball courts, four of which are covered, have private cabanas, and feature AI technology for a premium playing experience. Entertainment goes beyond pickleball with bocce ball courts, ping pong tables, lots of yard games, indoor simulators with games like golf and soccer, outdoor fireplaces, and a stage for live performances.
“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 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.”
At the heart of Electric Pickle is its signature, two-story, 12,000-sq.-ft. restaurant offering innovative dishes and craft cocktails. The globally inspired menu offers a variety of dishes from around the world, including sushi, street tacos, pizza, sandwiches, burgers, salads, and bowls, offering something for every palate. Start your meal with crispy fried pickles, served with a side of ranch, for the ultimate dipping experience. One of the signature items on the menu is the hot honey and sausage pizza made with Bianco DiNapoli sauce, sweet Italian sausage, hot honey, and Fresno peppers. This thin and crispy pizza delivers a bold kick with a touch of sweetness.
Electric Pickle has an expansive list of craft cocktails to choose from. A must-try is the signature Pickle Martini made with gin and pickle juice, garnished with a dill pickle. This unique drink is a dream for pickle lovers, delivering a tangy flavor that tastes like biting into the real thing. For those who enjoy a little heat, the Electric Jalapeno-Watermelon Margarita is a standout. Made with blanco tequila, watermelon juice, and agave, garnished with a fresh jalapeno slice, this cocktail is the perfect balance of spicy and refreshing flavors. Beyond cocktails, Electric Pickle also offers a well-curated selection of wine by the glass, along with beer, cider, seltzers, and even spiked slushies.
