http://www.starwoodhotels.com This indoor/outdoor lounge next to the W Scottsdale's second-floor pool is decked out with lavish brown and white couches, scattered amidst Mediterranean-inspired décor and a fully stocked bar armed with a classy staff tending to whatever alcohol need may arise. A funky blue-tinged waterfall is located behind Shade's bar and ripples with trickling water that is usually drowned out by the hum of conversation from the stylish crowd that congregates here. Nearby is the hotel's Sunset Beach, consisting of a swatch of white sand populated by breezy cabanas and daybeds, as well as color-changing lights and blazing fire pits encased in onyx marble. A number of upscale parties and affairs have taken place here, featuring such hepcat DJs as Soulman and Paul Oakenfold. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
An unpretentious bar and lounge with an English flair, Shady's is a place to chillax while sampling a few pints of Bass or Guinness, shoot some billiards, watch cult movies on the TVs, or converse with your fellow urbanites. It's got a living room-type feel with a fireplace stocked with candles and some of the most comfortable black leather chairs we've ever sat on. Owned by Brad Henrich (the cat behind Scottsdale's TT Roadhouse), it also has one of the most fly jukeboxes in the Valley, stocked with a cool cross-section of CDs ranging from Al Green and Richard Cheese to The Smiths, and others.

http://www.shenanigansofphoenix.com From the outside, this two-level tavern might appear to be just another humdrum storefront at a quiet strip mall in north Phoenix, but once you get inside, it's a different story altogether. There are plenty of amusements at this rocking watering hole, whether it's jersey-wearing sports fans gathering to root on their particular team, wanna-be singers grabbing the microphone during weekly karaoke nights on Fridays and Saturdays, or the occasional live band.

Get a slice of Southern-fried fun in the heart of Scottsdale at this honky tonk-like drinkery that invokes the spirit of those bumpkin bars you see out in the sticks (complete with peanut shells on the floor). It's like Old Town meets the Old West as country and classic rock hits boom throughout the wood-paneled saloon as tight-bodied waitresses wearing Daisy Dukes and barely-there T-shirts wrap themselves around stripper poles atop the bar. Besides all the booful babes doing the bump 'n' grind, the place also boasts a vintage Harley Davidson chopper in the center of the bar, gaudy cow skulls, and a couple posters of Johnny Cash.

http://www.theshouthouse.com/Glendale/home.asp West Valley nightlife isn't exactly known for its variety. Sure, you'll find plenty of sports bars and dank dives, but hip neighborhood bars and edgy dance clubs are quite the rare beast. Fortunately, The Shout! House offers a nice change of pace. You'll find a rotating cast of pianists tickling the ivories Tuesday through Sunday night. The dueling pianos offer up all the classic bar tunes - we're looking at you, Journey - while patrons can enjoy one of The Shout! House's nightly drink specials and grub from their full menu. You'll hear covers of bands as disparate as The Moody Blues and Tenacious D, so it's likely that everyone in your party will probably end up screeching along at some point. Oh, and if you've got your heart set on hearing something special you can always text a request - no need for the dollar bill. And, yes, they'll probably play Billy Joel's "Piano Man," but only if you ask them nicely. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.sidebarphoenix.com Boasting retro-futuristic swank, a relaxed upscale vibe, and a staggering selection of beer and wine, the always-stylish SideBar has become one of downtown Phoenix's premier drinking destinations. Perched on the upper floor of the historic brick building that once housed the Emerald Lounge and the original location of the Lost Leaf, the spot features a swinging '60s cocktail vibe and décor that was mapped out by renowned designer Judith Testani (of Olive & Ivy fame). A mix of mid-century retro and more modern elements -- including the programmable light wall and Paul Christiansen-like ceiling lamps -- SideBar's digs are matched in beauty by the precision cocktails served at the funky-looking illuminated bar. Try such tasty concoctions as the White Rabbit and the Psychedelic and see if you agree. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.thesilverpony.com From the moment you walk through the door of this friendly and laid-back South Phoenix country dive, you're treated as a regular. Outgoing bartenders welcome patrons with a hearty "howdy" and serve up bottles of Bud without attitude. The crowd is equally affable, even on a raucous weekend night. Harley-Davidson types knock back a few beers and play darts, while blue-collar workers from the neighborhood eagerly shoot pool with vaqueros dressed in Mexican cowboy wear. Boot-scootin' bands, such as Urban Country, provide an upbeat soundtrack on Fridays and Saturdays as customers do their two-step thing on the dance floor. There's also a baseball bat hanging behind the bar, which, the bartenders joke, is for patrons who might "get a little out of hand. But frankly, it's doubtful the staff ever needs to wield the weapon, because the vibe here is plenty amiable. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.skepticalchymist.com Looking very much like a kind of place you'd find on the Emerald Isle, Skeptical Chymist is a charming place resembling an old apothecary with rustic wooden furnishings and hundreds of books lining the walls. Besides having an abundance of the obligatory Guinness on tap, you can get ice cold pints of Harp, Bass, Newcastle and numerous other import drafts, as well as other Irish booze and brews. Several specialty cocktails, like the Chymist Royal (a concoction of Bushmills, apple liqueur, and ginger ale) are also on the menu. It's definitely good for what ails you.

http://www.myspace.com/skincabaret There’s a certain amount throwback class and gentility to a night out at Skin Cabaret. A dapper doorman was lightning quick with a Zippo lighter for smoker outside of this south Scottsdale club. The dancers, some sporting Betty Page’s signature black bangs, are required to wear pasties. (It’s thanks to a rather archaic-minded law that prevents fully topless entertainment passed back in 2007 and championed by onetime Scottsdale Mayor Mary Manross in an attempt to get strip parlors to vacate the city.) Plus, the bartenders gave out old school pours with some real moxie, which made the two-drink minimum easier to swallow. Thankfully, the actual adult entertainment taking place on the platforms at Skin isn’t some tease act out of the Don Draper era. As longtime resident DJ Dave Wave spins up music videos for the latest Top 40 and rock hits play on two video screen, dancers do some uninhibited with their almost nearly naked…um, endowments that would probably make your granpappy’s face go bright beet red.

http://www.skipandjans.com It's hard to tell from the street, but Skip & Jan's is huge. It might not look it from the outside, but this Tempe sports bar is large enough to house a fully-stocked kitchen, dozens of TVs, dart boards, arcades, and a station for off-track betting. Not to mention a cavernous pool hall, with tables stretching as far as the eye can see. The staff is courteous and friendly, and regulars are nice, too. The bar features live music, karaoke every Tuesday night and plenty of drink specials to wet gamblers' whistles. This west-Tempe hub has plenty to offer the wandering sportsman.

A favorite of both neighborhood residents and salt-of-the-earth barflies for years, Skippers is tucked away next to the intriguingly named Roman Tax Service in a red-and-white mini-strip. The bar offers Glendale denizens a place for drinks, karaoke, and live music. Such bands as The Bank and Fool's Life are regulars here, performing rock 'n' roll hits on the weekends. Watching NASCAR is another big pastime here (as evidenced by the posters on the wall) as are the thrice-weekly "kamikaze karaoke" sessions. As the event's name portends, singers can occasionally become a little wild when belting out standards and popular songs, so keep a firm hold of your drink in case the current mic-wielder bumps into you while belting out Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer."

An extension of the Sky High Smoke Shop in the same plaza that is home to the Yucca Tap Room, Sky High Hookah Lounge exudes a hip-hop vibe, blasting jams from Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Wiz Khalifa at top volume. Fragrant smells waft throughout the dark hall, with flavored shisha tobacco smoke billowing from towering hookah pipes. There"s a shadowed, curtained off private area in the back, and a glowing drink cooler with bottled waters and Mexican Coke and Pepsi in glass bottles. The hookah jockeys at the front counter are attentive but not intrusive, periodically shifting the burning coals over the bowls packed with flavorful combinations of slow-burning, molasses-dipped tobacco.

http://www.skyloungephoenix.com Exotically bumpin' beats and other tropical rhythmic treats await nearly every night at Sky Lounge, where the steamy and sultry Latin club serves up two floors of local DJs spinning cumbia, bachata, reggaeton, and other jams en español on the turntables from Wednesday until Sunday every week. Don't forget to bring some agua, cabrón. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.sleepydogbrewing.com "Leg Humper," "Scootcher," and "Wet Snout" are a few of the unique, pooch-centric names you'll find on the tap handles at Tempe's newest brewpub. Tucked away in a quiet strip mall on University Drive, Sleepy Dog offers house-made brews (flip over the menu for a sketch detailing the brewing process) and a bevy of other craft beers available on draft and by the bottle. If you're feeling a little more upscale, the establishment also offers a selection of Arizona wines. The chillaxed atmosphere makes Sleepy Dog an easy spot in which to kick back with friends and play a board game or watch a flick on one of the brewpub's flat-screen TVs. Try your luck on the "Wheel of Deals," and you could even a 25-cent beer or a free bag of chips. Fresh popcorn is available as are more exotic bar snacks, like hummus, should you need something to go along with your pint. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.smashboxxaz.com What Smashboxx lacks in descriptive signage, the popular Old Town club makes up for in attitude. Leather booths line one side of the place, and a backlit bar sparkling with vodka bottles lines the other, and in the middle, a mix of night-outers and dedicated dancers swivel and shake on the dance floor to a soundtrack of Top 40 and hip-hop. Descend the wooden stairs and you'll notice décor that points to both Euro-inspired hipness and old-school manliness. Equestrian paintings and a massive Steve McQueen portrait share space with paper lanterns and the "Hotboxx," a photo and video booth that allows mugging frequenters to update directly to their Facebook profiles.

This grungy CenPho drinking den could best be described as a dive bar to end all dive bars, as it features all the hallmarks of a classic hole in the wall: there are multiple signs hanging throughout the place advising patrons that fights aren't tolerated, a slew of cheap booze is constantly on special, and it's typically stocked with a salt of the earth clientele that's seemingly straight outta central casting. But if you're the sort who doesn't mind that type of thing, then the Snap Lounge is definitely the kinda place you can play some pool or shoot some darts with a shot and a beer while hiding from the rest of the world.
