The Best Pubs in Greater Phoenix
We love a good pub – any time of the year. But that perfect pub that
makes you feel like you’ve pulled up a stool to a bar on the Emerald
Isle is necessary when it comes to celebrating every Irishman’s favorite
holiday – Saint Patrick’s Day!
We
have put together a list of our favorite pubs around Phoenix for any
day of the year, but these hot spots will definitely put you in the
green-beer and shamrock spirit this March.
Chambers on First
Downtown Phoenix
If you’re the first person to turn up your nose at a craft beer flight and like your drink choices to be a bit… stronger – Chambers on First is the pub for you. Forget beer flights. Their specialty is whiskey flights! And this bar is a step up from the traditional British or Irish pub. It has been described as an American speakeasy meets European gastropub. With over 20 different Irish whiskeys on the menu for the picking, your Saint Patrick’s Day just got a lot more interesting.
Rosie McCaffrey’s
Phoenix
For those that have lived in the Valley for the past few decades, you’ve probably heard of Rosie McCaffrey’s. If it’s a traditional Saint Patrick’s Day you’re after, this is the first pub to ever serve Ireland’s favorite beer – Guinness! It’s been on tap here in Phoenix at Rosie McCaffrey’s for over 30 years. The fare will even put you in the Irish spirit with bangers and mash, and corned beef as just a few of the traditional items on the menu.
Tim Finnegan’s
Phoenix
If it’s variety you’re after, pop into Tim Finnegan’s for the best selection of Irish beers in all of Phoenix. And for those cider lovers, you won’t be forgotten either. For the liquor enthusiasts, you’ll still have plenty of Irish options on this menu. Soak up the atmosphere and you’ll be doing an Irish jig come March 17th.
The Womack
North Central Phoenix
If you’re wanting a slightly more elegant atmosphere on this often wild holiday, head over to The Womack. This cocktail lounge is dark, sexy and offers handcrafted cocktails like classic martinis, sidecars, and tiki drinks. The bar does have some small bites if you’re looking for more than just a cocktail.
Camp Social
Central Phoenix
Maybe you want that rustic outdoorsy feel that you might get in the Irish countryside but without the craziness of this Irish holiday. Head on over to Camp Social with its kitschy, cabin-themed décor. But it isn’t just the décor that will bring you back to your childhood. Try cocktails like S’more Lovin’, with vanilla vodka, chocolate, marshmallow, whipped cream, and chocolate syrup, or Arizona Summer with tequila, chile liquor, watermelon, and jalapeno.
And if the crowds are
too much for you this St. Patrick’s Day – make some of your favorite
Irish cocktails at home in your little piece of Arizona paradise. We’ll
even help you find that perfect at-home pub.
