Whether you’re taking a hiking trip and need a base of operations or visiting Flagstaff for its many cultural offerings, you’ll enjoy your time in the city as much as you will out in the wild places.

Top things to do in Flagstaff
Most visitors tend to spend their time enjoying the outdoors when visiting Flagstaff. The San Francisco Peaks and Coconino National Forest offer year-round conditions for hiking, skiing, and snowboarding. But there’s plenty to do in town. Flagstaff has a prospering downtown where local businesses, bars, restaurants, and landmarks are all worth traveling for.
Here are a few ideas for where to start:
Museums in Flagstaff
Lowell Observatory
Since 1984, the privately owned and operated Lowell Observatory has been one of Flagstaff's premier attractions. With guided tours, telescope viewings, and interactive exhibits, the Observatory is a great place to bring the kids to learn about the science of astronomy. The Lowell Observatory also has the distinction of being the facility that discovered Pluto.
Lowell Observatory Bag Policy
While the observatory doesn’t have any policies prohibiting larger items or luggage, it’s hardly ideal to be dragging the bags throughout a scientific research center.
Wupatki National Monument
Northern Arizona is one of the best places in the country for appreciating Indigenous culture and history, and the renowned Wupatki Pueblo ruins are located just outside Flagstaff. You can tour the ruins of traditional Pueblo sandstone dwellings to learn about how this culture lived while appreciating the surrounding desert landscape.
Museum of Northern Arizona
Situated right in Flagstaff, this is the premier educational facility for learning about the cultural and natural history of the Colorado Plateau. You can enjoy exhibits on Native American artifacts, geology, biology, and fine arts, and the museum frequently hosts festivals, art markets, and educational programs.
Museum of Northern Arizona Bag Policy
There aren’t any rules prohibiting bags or large items at the museum, but its sprawling layout would make bringing the luggage a burden during your visit.
While Flagstaff has some world-class museums, they might not have amenities like luggage lockers. That’s why Bounce places its convenient locations near the best attractions and is so useful for sightseeing treks.
Shopping in Flagstaff
Southside Historic District
What was once a run-down neighborhood of closed factories and buildings is now the trendiest part of Flagstaff. The area along Butler Avenue near Route 66 has been completely revitalized with local shops, restaurants, bars, and cafes. There are trendy vintage shops, record stores, and quirky boutiques worth checking out, along with plenty of Flagstaff's craft breweries.
University Plaza Shopping Center
Situated across from the Northern Arizona University campus, this shopping center is the best place to head for practical purchases. There’s a Dollar Tree for supplies at dirt-cheap prices and a few clothing or grocery stores. It’ll be swamped with students, but it’s certainly handy.
Heritage Square
Flagstaff’s historic town center is lined with quaint stores and boutiques selling everything from Native American art to antiques. You’ll find a notable presence of Western culture and more than a few places will sell cowboy boots! Heritage Square is also lined with cafes and restaurants and is great for people-watching and getting a feel for Flagstaff.
If you’re getting to Flagstaff Station via train and looking to shop around, your best bet will be Bounce. Chances are, there will be a Bounce storage location near all the best retail and shopping destinations. With so many valuable features, finding luggage storage is as easy as it gets, and the reliability and convenience are why Bounce has so many repeat customers.
Restaurants in Flagstaff
Atria
If you’re looking for an upscale spot to celebrate a special occasion, look no further than this sleek eatery in downtown Flagstaff. The city’s go-to date night spot features trendy exposed brick and bouquets of flowers that give Atria an intimate vibe. The menu of contemporary dishes makes for an elegant but indulgent dining experience. You’re a great distance from the nearest ocean but don’t skip seafood options like the oysters. Carnivores will love the smoked short ribs or unami wagyu beef tartare.
Diablo Burger
If you’ve been out in the mountains all day, you’ll be in dire need of sustenance. There’s nowhere in Flagstaff better suited to recovering some calories than this burger place. With a menu of creative grass-fed burgers, you’ll have your pick of different flavors like the ancho-grilled “Señor Smoke” or the “DB” burger on an English muffin. Their Belgian frites (with a tangy aioli) are to die for.
MartAnnes Burrito Palace
Visiting the Southwest without getting a proper Mexican meal would be a shame, and this quirky cantina is a destination for chilaquiles, burritos, and tacos. The Dia de los Muertos themes run deep with their decor and iconography, making it a fun place to dig into classic Mexican dishes. Their brunch is one of the most popular in Flagstaff, with epic chilaquiles and breakfast enchiladas providing all the fuel you’ll need for your afternoon hikes.
Lugging your bags through restaurants is both awkward and a hassle, but you definitely have options for where to store your bags. Booking luggage storage near all the best Flagstaff hotels and restaurants is made easy via our intuitive mobile app, so you can drop the bags off on your way to dinner.
