Featured Bars and Clubs


Sporting one of the more unique bar names in the Valley, Darwin's is housed in a strip mall just a few doors down from a Zipps Sports Grill and the Dilly Dally. With its windows and menus sporting a rather amusing caricature of the famed English naturalist (with his head grafted on a monkey's body, natch), it serves up classic bar food along with around a half-dozen domestics and imports on tap. The spacious room, complete with movie and rock 'n' roll décor, houses several booths, a lengthy bar, a pool table, and a stage -- perfect for groups of young good-timers or neighboring bar spillover to get vocal during the popular karaoke nights or rock out on the weekends with live music from local bands. Overall, its hospitable vibe makes it a "natural selection" for an evening of drinking and dining. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.devilstempe.com/Welcome.html This University Drive tavern has become one of the a favored drinking destinations of both the ASU set and refugees from the Scottsdale club scene. It's a bit more posh looking than its former identity as O'Malley's, with a dark wood design, plasma TVs, and plenty of leather seating. Tuesdays offer an acoustic open mic night, live music performances take place on Fridays, and different drink specials are available daily. Beats hanging out in your dorm room, that's for sure.

http://www.dickscabaret.com This male strip club in Phoenix is renowned for teases by fully nude men who are typically perfect specimens of muscle and movement. There's a non-alcoholic bar stocked with sodas and energy drinks and the stage is surrounded by mirrors to ensure your vision is clear enough to see the astonishing pole tricks and every inch of skin each Adonis can bare. The secluded VIP area off to the side allows for, ahem, more private dances. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.burningembersphoenix.com With no indication of its existence save two bougainvillea bushes guarding the door, Dick's Hideaway is a secluded reserve for those in the know. This bar and restaurant was once the spillover lounge for Richardson's, the popular restaurant that went up in smoke in July 2009, but now it's the sole attraction for people seeking Richardson's New Mexican fare. The main restaurant's kitchen was spared (lucky for us) and Dick's continues to serve food and daily drink specials to suits looking for a respite from the rat race. Despite its compact size -- a bar, three tables, and an adjoining party/dining room -- the warm wood, candles, and low light mean patrons will get familiar with each other fast as they crane their heads to see the blackboard specials or watch the tasty grub being cooked on the grill. Folks come from miles around for a giant lunchtime portion of Chile Adovada. (Served with one of the specialty tequilas, this makes a perfect early dinner too) For Breakfast, check out some of the southwest's best huevos rancheros or tuck into the Eggs Benedict, spiced up with hot jalapenos.

There's a lot to be said for taking it slow. The Dilly Dally is a laidback dive that's perfect for those looking to unwind and imbibe. A simple neon sign welcomes locals and newcomers through a dark foyer into a cozy, carpeted room where the juke's never too loud, the games are never too numerous, and the book exchange is never without a James Patterson novel. Hot nuts can be had for 50 cents a bag and the cutout collage of nudie pics is always entertaining. Dirt-cheap drinks explain the lack of flashy promotions, a homemade calendar showcasing the pub's patrons awaits the next regular's birthday, and the ambassadors of the bar's "Fish Tank Specials" swim lazily in a unkempt aquarium while the friendlier, faster-moving barkeeps serve up the next round of relaxation.

http://www.dirtydoggsaloonaz.com When hog-riding bikers need a pit stop in north Scottsdale, they're most likely stopping by the Dirty Dogg Saloon. It's not just a biker bar, though, as college kids and twentysomethings frequent the spot, probably drawn to the sexualized vibe. Dirty Dogg is known for its weekly wet tee shirt contests on Wednesdays and the barely-there attire of the gorgeous bartenders who love to dance on the bar and hang from the rafters. Oh, and the ceiling is decorated with lingerie that was probably peeled off at the bar. It has all the trappings of a strip club; without the full-on nudity or champagne room; and it's dark enough for shy patrons and voyeurs to remain incognito. Besides all the busty action, the bar also features dirt-cheap daily drink specials. There are $2.50 Coronas on Fridays, $2 PBRs on Mondays (when there are also Texas Hold'em tournaments) and $4 Jack Daniels cocktails on Thursdays, when the bar also hosts live bands.

http://www.thedirtydrummer.com A casual sports bar teeming with TVs and cultivating a friendly atmosphere, the Dirty Drummer feels more like a laid-back ski lodge (complete with fireplace) than your run-of-the-mill gin joint. As natural light filters through the front windows, ordinary Scottsdale folk sit at tables and booths or belly up to the stainless steel bar to catch the game, relax after a pool match, or take advantage of cheap drinks and grub while oldies blast out of the speakers. In addition to its signature wings, the Dirty Drummer offers such selections as spicy onion scoops (chunks of onion rings with a kick) and giant breakfast fare. Two happy hours - 3:30 to 7:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 6 to 11 a.m. every day - offer plenty of drink deals to satisfy your wallet. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.dizzysaz.com A neighborhood bar with all the trappings, Dizzy's is a down-to-earth drinking den where kicking back starts with a song -- namely, Tom Waits on the jukebox. A jar of pickled eggs and a vintage cigarette machine watch over a relaxed scene, where plaques of pool and dart league proficiencies line the walls and pickup trucks fill the parking lot. Join old-school locals as they share the day's doings or jostle for a TV remote, rack 'em up for free on Sunday nights, or engage electronically on the Golden Tee and Silver Strike games. Along with daily drink specials like Bloody Mary's for $3 on Fridays and $2.25 PBR every day, donning Dizzy's apparel on Tuesdays (everything from jerseys and tank tops to ball caps and fleece pants with the logo emblazoned across the backside) gets you 50 cents off drinks and allows everyone to know that when you go drinking, you go drinking at Dizzy's.

http://www.djsofscottsdale.com At DJ's there is a large mural on the wall depicting a delicious collection of vintage liquor bottles, which kinda spells out this Old Town watering hole's simplicity. Unlike most of its Stetson Drive neighbors, drinking is the main activity here. There are no typical nightlife distractions -- crowded dance floors, snazzy VIP areas, or noisy club kids -- just a standard-looking bar, a plethora of alcoholic concoctions, a couple of video game units, such as Big Buck Hunter, and plenty of patrons looking to quench their thirst. Just like Napoleon Dynamite, this place is cool without trying to be cool. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
Imagine your zany uncle wanting to convert the basement into a bar and your aunt letting him. The result would probably be a lot like the Do Drop Inn. With its wood paneling, drop ceiling, and low fluorescent lighting, this Sunnyslope watering hole has been a neighborhood necessity for years. It's an odd place, featuring a curious collection of libations (everything from Oskar Blues Old Chub to Alaskan White Ale and single servings of Sutter Home), along with cheap cigarettes (Grand Prix and Cheyenne) and microwave snacks (such as chicken nuggets and jumbo honey buns in plastic wrapping). The Do Drop doesn't make apologies for that -- or so suggests the "No Sniveling" sign above the bar. The locals may take a while to warm up to you, and the tough-but-tender barkeep's quick to give a newcomer some words for not closing the front door, but once you've paid your dues, do drop in again, won't you?

http://www.barinfo.com At the risk of sounding grandiose, Doc & Eddy's is one of the quintessential neighborhood sports bars in the entire Valley, possessing all the amenities that make a jock joint great. There aren't many seats in the house without excellent views of multiple TVs, allowing throngs of rabid fans who gather here (including both ASU supporters and members of the Steeler Nation) to witness the exploits of their favorite teams while simultaneously keeping tabs on several other games of interest. Food and drink specials are also plentiful, like the $2 domestic bottles and $5.25 pitchers available during the daily happy hour, which are guaranteed to keep you satisfied even if the bums are losing. But if you're not into all the athletic action, D&E's offers plenty of other diversions, ranging from a dozen regulation-size pool tables and air hockey to video games and a weekly team trivia night to challenge your pop culture intellect. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just along for the ride, this south Tempe sports haven definitely has all the bases covered. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.dollhouseaz.com Despite its girly name and vibe, both men and women alike will enjoy the poshness of this Indian Plaza lounge and drinkery, which serves as a feminine compliment to the more masculine Smashboxx next door. Glowing panels on the walls and behind the bar illuminate the diverse crowd of patrons on the dance floor and tucked away in the VIP booths. House music dominates the sound system as local and visiting selectas man the mixers six nights a week. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.dosgringosaz.com Popular with 20-somethings and the college-age crowd, Dos Gringos is a two-story hacienda for the hangover-prone that features multiple bars, colorful graffiti lining the walls, and a south-of-the-border beach-bum vibe. Corona, Pacifico, Dos Equis, and other Mexican beers, which are usually on special. Sit back with a margarita or cold Mexican brew and watch the tourists go by.

http://www.dosgringosaz.com After Dos Gringos Trailer Park closed in 2009, college kids and Tempe day drinkers alike were left without one of their favorite spots to grab a bucket of Coronas and a giant burrito first thing in the morning. Thankfully, the drinking gods have blessed them with a brand new drinking hole that's just as much fun as its predecessor. Closer to Ahwatukee than ASU, the newer Tempe eating and drinking spot retains everything we love about Dos Gringos but with more of a mixed clientele (read: more than just ASU students). Grab a $2 Corona or a $3 Gringorita while enjoying the beautiful Arizona weather (well, five months out of the year at any rate). Indoor and outdoor seating is available, as are several food and drink specials during the weekday happy hour, every Monday through Friday. Weekends tend to get a little crazy, so leave the kids (or parents) at home. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.thereefaz.com Thumping hip-hop tracks pulsate and pierce the evening air every weekend at this colorful Southeast Valley eatery and nightspot adorned with bright green and pink neon lights. Beat-blasting DJs man the decks and throw down the vinyl from Thursday through Saturday, dropping urban anthems, R&B hits, and old school jams for the folks crowding the Draft House's tiny dance floor. If you're partial to more subdued entertainment, the weekly karaoke night on Tuesdays might suit your tastes. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
