Bar 1912 - Grasshopper & Chaparral - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

June 7th, around 11:02 PM we walk inside and are seated. My boyfriend and I love the atmosphere yet this has been the worst service I have ever had! The waiter next to us is talking to her so called friends who have sat down and I hear them mentioning food service. The menu said food until 11:00 PM, yet we thought why not give it a shot and ask. The girl raises her voice, and pulls out her phone to verify the time and fact check us.... Odd but whatever Now the main situation was with a gentleman with glasses and dark hair early 20s. He comes up and looks at my California state license, vertical age 21 in 2024 of THIS MARCH. He then decides to stare at it and question if I'm an Arizona or California resident, ask me if I've been able to access clubs in Arizona and more. He then tells me that Arizona vertical licenses must be changed.... But mine is obviously out of state and is a valid ID. Once I shut him down from questioning me he says " WHATEVER!" And walks away flamboyantly with hands in the air like a 16 year old. It's one thing to check an ID, but to be questioned from someone who is practically my age as well.... Very very unprofessional read more

My favorite spot. I always look for a spot that doesn't have watered down alcohol. This is it!

This is my personal top 3 speakeasy bar in Phoenix! Service is always on point, cocktails are out of this world, and it's ALWAYS a vibe in here. I've tasted pretty much all their cocktails from the menu but my favorite has to be the forest where they burn the rosemary on top... I can drink 3-4 of those in one setting. My only wish was that they were open more days of the week than just friday/Saturday. Other than that they're good people and I plan on lounging here for years to come. read more

I had friends in town so I wanted to try 1912 and show off this beautiful bar to them. The decor is fantastic! We sit down and all of us read the cocktail menu a few times and felt like it was overly complicated and nothing really jumped out to us. No problem, maybe it's us! My friend walks up to the bartender and asks her if she can make him a mudslide. Yes, that's an odd drink to ask I understand but we were blown away by the bartender's response. "We're one of the highest rated bars in the country. We don't make that shit here" in front of four other guests. My friend was so embarrassed by that response I had never seen him so angry. The poor attitude of that female bartender to make a scene like that. How dare she. It would have been perfectly reasonable to say, "I'm sorry but we don't have the ingredients for that. Can I make you something else?" We got up and walked out even though the rest of us had already ordered our drinks with another employee. Be careful, 1912. Be very careful having that "we made it arrogant attitude" before you've made anything. I've been to 50+ cocktail bars in this town and you weren't even sniffing the top 10 before this outburst. Now you're off my list. What a shame...I really wanted to root for you as I'm a neighbor! read more

Ordered: 1 dirty vodka martini, 2 dirty gin martinis My Experience: I keep expecting word to get out about Bar 1912 and for it to become unattainable. As of now, it still seems like the valley's best kept secret. We arrived at Bar 1912 to the private speakeasy style entrance tucked behind Modern Manor. We were there at 7 PM on a Friday and were quickly greeted by a friendly waitress and were seated. Bar 1912 is an absolute vibe and I don't say that lightly. Charlie Brown's Christmas album was spinning on the vinyl they had displayed at the entrance and dim low lights carried your eyes all the way from the warm, all white bar to the fireplace. We had a one track mind, to try the dirty martinis that are not on the menu but the elite team they had behind the bar were happy to make. We were very pleasantly surprised with how smooth the house vodka and gin were and we were even more pleasantly surprised with the $14 price per drink. We abstained from the limited food menu with items mentioning foie gras and caviar. The tables around us quickly filled with mostly couples. Ideal Move: This is your next date night spot. Come before or after dinner for a cocktail and enjoy the music, vibe, and your company. read more

Love to stop in before or after dinner at Valentine. The bar is cool and inviting, not a bad seat in the house. They have great craft cocktails and service is always super sweet. The drinks sound complicated but they explain them in a way you know exactly what you are getting. read more

The only thing better than the drinks was the bartender Alyssa. She is a rockstar. Great spot. Love the set up.

The service was awesome! Alyssa went above and beyond to impress us with her mixology skills along with playing them records like a boss!! The music on point and ambiance is a vibe on its own. Spectacular and highly recommended thank you Bar 1912 we will be back! read more

Such a cool speakeasy type of bar tucked behind Valentine restaurant. It was popping on a Saturday night and we were able to snag a table after a short wait. I thoroughly enjoyed my drink which tasted similar to an amaretto sour. Will definitely be back to try their other offerings. One of my friends was driving and the bartender was sweet enough to make her a mocktail. Service was excellent with our server being very attentive and sweet. read more

Very cool spot to check out when in the area. All of their drinks are very unique and made with a certain twist. They do make all garnishes and actually grow most as well. I think this is reasonable for what you get and the ambiance is definitely cool. Great work to Alyssa and Aiden! read more

1912 is such a vibe. Venue is cozy and intimate but still can host a group really well. I have to say, they did a great job with the space... You can either sit at the bar, or there are also a few high top tables and then towards the back is a more lounge like area with banquet and comfy seating.... And a fireplace Great for a date night or catching up with friends over some yummy cocktails. And they have snacks! We were headed to belly for dinner afterwards, otherwise would have opted in... alas we will return. Service was great... knowledgeable of their game, moved fast but didn't rush you. Our cocktails were VERY good! See picture of Woodland & Cotton together. They have unique spins to a few classics, AZ themed. Oh and spinning vinyl?! Wow, chefs kiss!! read more

Excellent drinks; I highly recommend the Tundra. Sometimes it can be hard to find parking/seating when it's busy, but other than that it's a great spot for upscale cocktails in a relaxed atmosphere. read more

Beautiful atmosphere. I honestly wasn't blown away by their cocktails but the setting still makes it a nice place to take guests, especially if you're dining at Valentine (which is amazing). read more

Really cool vibe. Really great servers who are clearly into the cocktailing art. Check it out.

Great cocktails, perfect ambiance, great bartenders. My favorite bar in all of Phoenix. Anytime I come to town, I make a stop at 1912.

I've been going to Valentine for some time since it opened, but I finally made it into their cocktail bar. Needless to say I'm impressed, their cocktails are nuanced, complex and flavorful. I loved each one I tried, I'll definitely be back with more friends! read more

My friend and I stopped by one night for drinks. Bar 1912 had such a classy and cozy vibe. Great date night spot with unique, creative Arizona-themed drinks. Four stars as service was a little slow and we had a hard time getting the check. read more

Perfectly tucked away in the far back area of Valentine, with its own entrance even, is Bar 1912. What a charming little speakeasy bar with cozy, dark lighting and amazing cocktails! Go in there and escape the hustle and bustle of a very busy 7th ave and immerse yourself in the old time ambiance and escape the real world. I promise you'll keep thinking about it long after you've experienced it. read more

So much potential here to be a really popular staple as a bar in Phoenix but unfortunately they just don't have it all...first, the bartender couple times had such a cocky attitude to where it almost makes you feel like they are doing you a favor to even talk to you...not friendly at all...& the drinks are hit or miss. Some good ones, some not so good or just way too strong to even enjoy. The interior decor is the best part about it but it's just not enough to go back. :/ read more

1912?? Wow a time warp. Back to the future? Drycleaners built in 1957. I guess it was a dirt lot in 1912. Very protensise. Tater tots ?? Please. Liquid cheese. Please. Typical Melrose style. Plus who can buy a $5000 "retro " couch on the way out. What more to ask for read more

Beautiful place and amazing vibe. The bartenders were super nice and very knowledgeable! She was even able to come up with a very impressive virgin drink for our designated driver after he shared a couple flavors he liked! read more

Small bar in the back of a restaurant. Dimly lit with an elegant feel. Decent drinks. Good date spot

This bar is amazing. Roman, John and Alyssa are world class. They craft unforgettable cocktails, curate excellent service and the music is always on point. Alyssa never fails to make me feel at home and always remembers my name. I will always have a special place in my heart for this bar and these amazing bartenders. read more

Most definitely Phoenix's best cocktail lounge. Gorgeous cocktails that are punctiliously created. Friendly and knowledgeable staff too.

Bar itself is great, bartenders on the other hand are some of the rudest staff I've ever encountered in my life. Condescending and disrespectful. There was one kind female bartender who I could tell was trying to mediate and was very sweet. The hostility we received from the moment we walked through the entrance from everyone else was shocking. Tons of other cool bars in the area that won't make you feel like you've imposed from the moment you stepped inside. read more

Great atmosphere, good food. Service could have been a touch quicker, and we had multiple empty glasses on a small table, along with our food (we were still eating.c though) so I guess I'm trying to say table space is a commodity. Nice server/bartender. We were in the Lounge area! read more

Excellent late night spot. Classy interior and very friendly service. They have a full wine list available upon request and it's one of the most unique you'll find in Phoenix! read more

lovely date night spot for unique drinks and great music, the ambience is great as well

Honestly, I love a craft cocktail and this is one of the best places to find such a thing. Aiden is such a great bartender and will make you nearly anything you ask, 11/10 will recommend and come back read more

Alyssa, John and Roman are the reason I keep coming back to this place. So incredibly kind, personable, attentive and never fail to make a mean cocktail. Always has and will be one of my favorite spots - only love. read more
