Showing 441 - 462 of 662Valley can-do man Jerry Colangelo built it in 1992, and they’ve come in droves to watch pro sports (including the NBA’s Suns and the WNBA’s Mercury ), concerts, monster truck rallies, religious revivals and other touring events at the 17,071 -capacity facility.
Beer and wine fans, take note: This newest bar comes courtesy of some of CenPho’s favorite watering holes. Owned by Greg Malkin of the Whining Pig, this cozy spot is located in the Arcadia neighborhood in the space formerly occupied by the Poor Little Rich Girl consignment boutique. Now, instead of used clothing, it offers […]
For too long, craft breweries eschewed TVs, ignoring the fact that beer and sports are a match made in heaven. If you want to catch a game and geek out over hop varietals, the pickings can be slim. Enter Pinnacle Brewing Co., which the Wilson family opened in north Scottsdale in May 2024. Brewmaster Wyatt […]
Modeled after a Presidential Pullman train car, Platform 18 at Century Grand transports you to the glamorous world of the early 20th century. The wood-paneled walls and digital window screens that display stunning natural landscapes make it easy to forget you never actually left Phoenix. Named one of North America’s 50 best bars in 2023, […]
A video bar, drinkery, and nightspot all rolled into one, Plazma is a quaint hangout for the LGBT community, tucked away just off 16th Street, providing a cool haven to shoot pool, chat over drinks, and even suck down colorful Jello shots from plastic syringes. When the jukebox isn’t bumping out techno or pop diva […]
Not much has changed at Pomeroy’s since it opened in 1983, aside from a COVID-era plexiglass shield surrounding the cocktail fixings at the bar (no more snagging a quick Maraschino cherry). Wood paneling covers most everything, including the front windows. At the bar, mingle with a mix of old-timers and new arrivals while the rapidly […]
There are plenty of places to grab a drink along Roosevelt Row, but few rival the mad-science mixology happening at Pour Bastards. The cocktail, natural wine and self-described “shitty beer” bar is from the same team that runs Killer Whale Sex Club, FYPM and Disco Dragon. The muted interiors at Pour Bastards are relatively monochromatic, […]
Offering two bars in one, this popular Scottsdale spot is a haven for both jock types and music fans. The main bar boasts more TVs than a Best Buy, each broadcasting the latest athletic events and highlights, and always seems to be populated by college kids, sports nuts, and weekend warriors. Meanwhile, the Jester Room […]
If you’re hunting for this divers unmarked location within the decidedly button-down south Mesa plaza that houses it, steer clear of the law firms, real estate companies, and other white-collar business and instead look for the Christmas lights on the roof of the Pub ‘n’ Grub that seemingly operate 24/7/365. And yes, the bar is […]
Formerly known as Chasers, this Scottsdale bar has hosted live music for more than 20 years. Before the name change and facelift, Chasers hosted acts like The Lawrence Arms, Cobra Skulls, and Steve Ignorant of Crass.

Even if you don’t like pool, Tempe’s Q & Brew still offers plenty of ways to spend your quarters. Vintage pinball machines greet you at the door, including a primo Williams Deluxe Baseball unit from 1957, while a CD jukebox and bar-top touch-screen video games are also available. Pool remains the establishment’s bread and butter, […]
This splashy lounge and drinkery located inside Bobby Q’s gives all other danceterias a run for their money. Colorfully chic lighting coming from glowing walls and tables highlights a throng of sexy types moving and grooving on the dance floor while speakers pump hip-hop jams and Top 40 anthems.

Whenever the day-drinking mood strikes us, we typically head for Quail Lounge, because this rough-around-the-edges roadhouse located along Seventh Avenue offers the dive bar hat trick of cheap booze, saucy-yet-friendly bartenders, cheesy d
This duo of bars is a one-two punch of cocktail excellence. Upon entering, you’ll first hit Quartz, a dark space with a black cave-like stone overhang lit by a neon rope. Here, you can go mining through the menu with drinks inspired by gemstones. Try the Dripping Diamonds for a refreshing and citrusy sip topped […]
