"Best Neighborhood Pub"
February 1997, Readers' Picks
See below for more information on these
"Best Neighborhood Pub" winners
listed alphabetically
Big Fish Sports Pub
Bobby McGee's
Jackson Hole
Big Fish Sports Pub
1954 E University Dr, Tempe (602)966-5010
Well this isn't the "one that got away" - our readers have found it and it appears
to have it's own unique charm! One of the things that Buzz finds most endearing
is that he can get Pizza and Beer at 6:00am. Open Monday - Friday from
6:00am to 1:00am. Happy Hour is Monday - Friday from 4:00pm - 7:00pm
with different drink specials. Tuesday and Thursday feature $.25 pints. Food is
pretty much limited to Pizza, but you don't need much more with pool, great
bands and a mix of live music and dj's. The readers really seemed to like the
service and staff - "makes you feel comfortable, at home, cozy." For some
reason Charles, the bartender deserved special mention "=8)".
Bobby McGee's
7000 E Shea Blvd, Scottsdale (602) 998-5591
This is a place to bring friends and have a good ol' time. Readers liked the
unusual clothes the wait staff wears - "opens many an unusual
conversation." Open for lunch Monday-Friday from 11:00am to 3:00pm.
There is a brunch on Sunday from 11:00am to 3:00pm. Dinner hours are
Sunday-Thursday, 4:00pm - 10:00pm; Friday, 4:00pm - 11:00pm; Saturday,
5:00pm - 11:00pm. The night club is open until 1:00am (with a $3 cover),
except Sundays when they close an entire 1/2 hour earlier and cover is $5 - it's
their busiest night! Monday - Friday Happy Hour features $1.50 House Wine
and Domestic Drafts, along with a complimentary 12 ft. buffet. Sunday nights
have $1.50 Well Wine and $.99 Drink Specials from 8:00pm - 10:00pm. They
have live entertainment throughout the week - call to find out who's on.
Jackson Street Grill
1 E Jackson St., Phoenix (602) 257-0990
This fun place is located in the historic Jackson Hole Warehouse, right behind the America West Arena (SE corner of Central Ave. and Jackson St.). It is a nice change from the standard 'downtown' bar and grills. One reader liked the contrasts, "It's modern, yet has pool tables and good greasy food. It's got great music, and yet has art on the walls." Open from 4pm to close(whenever that is???), Tuesday through Saturday. If there's a big Am. West Arena event, they'll open on Sunday and/or Monday - otherwise you've only got 5 days a week to enjoy them!
That was our reader's picks any additions?
