13 New Businesses Now Open in Downtown Phoenix

2026 has been a turbocharged year thus far for Downtown Phoenix’s business community, as both the city’s skyline and street level elevate with each new development. 

Since the beginning of the year, we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming over 40 new businesses to the neighborhood, with even more set to open soon.  

The latest wave includes a healthy combination of dining concepts, beauty salons, a pet-friendly retailer, and the city’s first full-service wellness resort.   

Here’s a look at the 13 new businesses now open in DTPHX:

The Valley's first-ever Boozy Ice Cream Barlour made its grand entrance into the neighborhood this August, with impeccable timing for the home stretch of summer.
