Top 5 Dive Bars in Arizona

7011 E Indian School Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85251, United States

“Love this place. Can’t get enough. My service dog and I love the bartenders Tim and Drew. You gotta go here when all the lights are up between December and the Super Bowl. Show the door hosts, Quinton and Mario some monetary love, even if their tip bucket isn’t out.”

“Their reputation for a great fish fry is well founded: light batter and succulent fleshy cod that kept coming via the very attentive server Ethan as I kept eating. The strange thing was that the shapes and darkness of the coating changed with each refill yet they were all good. My friend got the Build a Burger and enjoyed it. I initially had a problem with my discount, but a manager straightened it out. Mother Road draft beer was the perfect accompaniment to the meal and to sip on while looking around at the taxidermied critters and nostalgic items like the model of Budweiser's Clydesdales.”

37 Navajo Dr, Sedona, AZ 86336, United States

“This dive bar was the perfect place to watch an NFL game. And I was surprised at the quality of the food. Ordered the 6 oz top sirloin with a side salad and onion rings and was not disapppointed. The floors were dirty and it was at least 80° inside, but it is a dive bar, so expectations for atmosphere were low. Just happy to have a great meal and the game on TV. The bartender Linsey, was fantastic, and the cook came out to check on the quality of the food after it was serves. Very impressed.”

403 Clark St a3, Jerome, AZ 86331, United States

“This is my new favorite local pub. The staff is super friendly and the vibes are really great. There is a pool table, shuffle board, video games, an arcade console and games you can use everywhere. The beer selection is fantastic and they even have a few small bites you can order. They play a super chill selection of music over the sound system and it's a really relaxed atmosphere. The owner started to incorporate live local music also and The Skavelinas had the place bouncing the night we were there. I love this addition to Jerome and the valley in general. It's definitely doing its own thing up there on the mountain and I appreciate the diversity it brings to town. I highly recommend stopping in for a pint!”

“Don't go to this place very often but had an absolute fantastic time. Fun crowd, hell they even had food in the corner which appeared to maybe be from Valle Luna but it was two trays of mini chicken chimichangas with guacamole and salsa, nice surprise. All in all great night with holiday festivities.”

“On this visited I received the typical service I have come to expect at Natalie’s, BAD. Took over 45 minutes to receive my first drink. Later in the night it was over an hour to receive my drink, which I had to ask 3 different servers for. One server told me to “Relax I am getting it.” After the reopening things looked cleaned up around the bar, but the service is still terrible.”
