A genuine historic landmark, the Rusty Spur fits Old Town Scottsdale’s penchant for Western kitsch like a tasseled glove. The compact building started life as a circa-1920s savings and loan (the city’s first), later becoming a saloon in 1958. Back then, liquor was stored in the vault and cowboys and cowgirls slaked their thirsts. These […]

The Sail Inn may be known for its devotion to jam bands and generally hippie-friendly vibe, but recent years have seen the selection of music there expand. Any given night you may find DJs rocking beats, indie rockers doing their thing, or any of the characteristically “love, peace, and chicken grease” type acts. The Sail […]

San Tan Brewing hasn’t been around as long as the Valley’s craft brew standard-bearer, Four Peaks, but it’s fast establishing itself as one of the best brewpubs in Arizona. Located along a nice stretch of restaurants and pubs in the heart of downtown Chandler, it features a vast lineup of in-house brews, along with a […]
This Southeast Valley eatery and drinkery was made famous a few years back due to its well-publicized fight with Pinal County officials about the legality of letting patrons dance. Thankfully, San Tan won that particular court kerfuffle, allowing anyone to kick up their heels as much as possible during gigs from local country and Western […]

We love to hate Sandbar’s clientele, but if there’s one thing the North Phoenix bros and ladies know how to do, it’s drink hard all day long. Because Sandbar is one of the only bars around the Desert Ridge shopping area, there’s almost always a small crowd lounging around the outdoor patio or in the […]
A place to see and be seen, and suck down some topnotch sushi while doing so. This glitzy palace is packed with fine young professionals crowding a hip watering hole, but the chefs take their mission seriously. The concept is split into three themes: teppanyaki, Pacific Rim and sushi. With a special chef for each […]
This Mill Ave. nightspot has quickly established itself as the place to shake it in Tempe, combining rock ‘n’ roll trappings with heavy electronic sounds. The walls are lined with glittering bottles of booze; stars hang from the ceiling and neon-lit stripper poles dot the upstairs lounge. The rock ‘n’ roll vibe extends to the […]

A downtown staple for 33 years, Seamus McCaffrey’s attracts a crowd that reflects the changing neighborhood it inhabits: city and county employees, upwardly mobile loft-dwellers and service-industry workers. In fact, Seamus is your favorite downtown bartender’s favorite bar. It also has a tough-to-beat selection of Scotch and Irish whiskey, traditional Irish fare such as Shepherd’s […]
The atmosphere at Sevens Lounge depends on the time of day. The West Valley bar and grill opens up in the afternoon on weekdays with various food and drink specials, but after dark, it becomes a place to grab some spirits with friends and catch up on the latest gossip. Things tend to get wilder, […]
From the outside, Shady’s may look like one of the old residences located along Indian School Road in east Phoenix, but inside, it’s a small pub and lounge with British flair. Its intimate, living room-like interior is full of stylish touches: black leather booths and chairs, a fireplace stocked with candles and caricatures of Ernest […]
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 […]
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.

Sidecar Social Club may be one of the Phoenix bar scene’s best kept secrets. Tucked behind Ocotillo and sharing the same palo verde-dotted, string-light adorned, swoony patio, the drinking establishment can be easy to breeze past. But it’s worth the stop. The cocktail bar serves classics, including its namesake shaken drink, along with fun, inventive […]
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 […]
This slow-to-catch-on coffee house and eatery gets its caffeinated drinks from Cartel coffee and its menu from chef Payton Curry, who has created a small list of breakfast and lunch items as well as a daily selection of pastries. Sandwiches include a BLT, chicken salad, and an Italian grinder; a hummus plate and several salads […]
