Liberty Market’s retro-cool, Italian-made FAEMA E61 espresso machine is turning 49 years old today and to celebrate the occasion, the Gilbert restaurant will offer free classic Italian drinks from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Espresso drinkers can get a free espresso, macchiato, or cappuccino, as long as you stay and enjoy them rather than taking them to-go. The espresso machine, which was made in Milan, Italy on July 22, 1965, was used in Italy for decades before being refurbished and then installed at Liberty Market five years ago.

Taco Guild Thursday, July 24

Taco Guild in central Phoenix will be offering $5 off all tequila flights, as well as a special tequila pork taco.
