Breaded shrimp and fries and a margarita
Marielis G.

The Spurr Lounge - A Hidden Gem with Great Vibes As someone who loves discovering local spots, The Spurr Lounge gave exactly what I didn't know I needed! From the moment I walked in, the staff and regulars made me feel right at home. Super friendly, no-pressure vibes, and great service all around. I sat in the back -- there was a slight smell in that area, which I hope gets addressed soon -- but honestly, it didn't take away from the overall experience. The energy in the lounge was upbeat and welcoming, and the ambiance felt like a cozy mix between dive bar comfort and lounge charm. Now let's talk about that margarita! Absolutely delicious and well-balanced -- not too sweet, not too strong, just right. The presentation of both the drink and food was on point (photo attached!). Everything was fresh and flavorful. Parking was a breeze -- located right out front and easily accessible. Looking forward to coming back -- this is the kind of spot that quickly becomes your go-to. Cheers, Spurr Lounge!

Fans blowing the smell of the bathroom around

This place is cool, but the bathroom makes the whole place smell like piss it stinks and as soon as you walk in the bar it's just rotten with mildew and the smell of piss. The place and people are good, the smell just reeks.

My fave local neighborhood bar in our old neighborhood with the best bartenders in the world! Sammy and Tanya
Ludmila F.

This neighborhood gem was our local watering hole when we lived in Laveen and we still visit hanging on to that "Cheers" bar feeling with our favorite bartender superstars Sammy and Tonya! Terry keeps this place evolving by putting in credit card options vs. the former cash only, remodeling the flooring without losing that old school charm. Ballin' on a budget $1.00 pudding shots made by Sammy and the crew, full bar, burgers, pizza, wings and one of the best patty melts I've ever had on the planet. Reg and I have to take credit for convincing them to start carrying Tito's back in 2014ish. lol. Don't come here for kale sprinkled with caviar foodie pictures and craft cocktails. Come to meet down to earth people of all backgrounds, grab a beer, order some wings and stay for the Karaoke on Fridays or play something on touch tunes. Ken and Barbie aren't going to walk in sporting the latest manolo blahnik pumps. If you're looking for hipster with glitter that's 15 min away downtown at a speakeasy. And I love those too! But if you want real, "it's a wonderful life bar" with strong drinks, worker bees and peeps that will be there for you at your best, worst, no make up, day you broke up with your boo or quit your job, this is the spot. It's my hole in the wall and I wouldn't change it for any amount of glam in the world. Keep rockin Spur lounge and coming up with new pudding shot flavors. Woot Woot! XOXO

Fun night!

Had a fantastic Wednesday night, and a big reason was our server Max. From the moment we sat down,…read moreMax was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made the experience feel special. The recommendations were spot on, exactly the kind of insider knowledge that makes you feel like you're in good hands. Never had to wait for anything, and Max had a way of checking in at just the right moments without being intrusive. One of those servers who reminds you why going out is so much more than just drink. Will absolutely be back!

But, if you're looking for a really cool bar, KWSC is for you. I stopped by on a week day evening around 8:30 p.m. Located in Roosevelt Row, while there isn't parking, I found free parking on the street a few minutes away on foot. Ambiance (4.5/5): My type of spot. Dimly lit with a speakeasy vibe. There are eight or so seats at the bar, and the rest of your seating options consist of comfortable chairs and sofas. You'll see a lot of photos of people's bums on the walls lol. This is indeed part of the appeal. For free, if you would like, they will take a polaroid of your butt and memorialize you eternally on the walls. While I didn't do that, if that's up your alley, go for it. Service (2/5): This is the main area of improvement. After being seated, I was greeted promptly and got my first cocktail promptly. From there, things fell apart. I had to grab the bartender's attention to order my second drink and to close out. It was a week day and they weren't busy. And there were two bartenders. A lack of attentiveness. When I closed out, I noticed that the cocktails were both $2 more expensive than what was listed on the menu. When I inquired, I was told that the menus were outdated... umm what? If you're not going to re-print your menus, give people a heads-up when they arrive. I understand that most people won't notice, but this is deception. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet. If you're trying to eat here, all they have is snacks. The menu doesn't specify but I'm thinking it's probably chips or somethign like that. Drinks (4/5): A lengthy, and interesting, cocktail list. Similar to a speakeasy, you're going to see creativity and an interesting blend of flavors here. The most popular drink is Fuck Nazis. We're seeing a theme here. KWSC is an interesting spot. For various dollar amounts, you can get funny things outside of the polaroids of your bum. My first cocktail was great. My second one, a tiki drink, not so much. The menu said that there would be some flame action happening. It didn't. Just another example of the service falling short. If the service were better, Killer Whale Sex Club would easily be a five-star experience.

Came in with some friends on a Saturday night during the kinda in-between of the music going from clerb and country to fiesta. The drinks were solid and not a super expensive night out. They do have a food menu but we weren't there for that. The staff were super nice and the bartender explained if we weren't going to sit at the bar we'd have to wait in line for drinks at the opposite end of the bar. I am most happy to be belly up and people watch. So much life and happy folks to be seen! They have a couple of pool tables and a solid dance floor. Seems like such a great community spot, no wonder it's been open for decades.

It is a large dive…read morecountry style dive bar with two pool tables, good bar food, and sell mini snd regular pitchers of beer. They have a touch tunes juke box, live bands on Saturday I believe, karaoke on Sundays and Tuesdays at last check, and a dance floor whenever you want to dance even by yourself. They also have a patio for smoking. Drinks and food are reasonably prices especially for beer and they do have a hard seltzer and cider offering but it is limited. Being in South Phoenix they do have a dress code but mainly for cuts and colors, however I did have to change my baywatch short once because no tank tops. Swim trunks and slides were fine so go figure. They do have a bouncer that pats you down after a certain hour and they are pretty cool. One even gave me a jersey from his car to cover my tank top, but we are familiar with each other and joke around alot so dont expect that service. Wings are great and fried food as well, I cant remember what else I ate when inebriated but good kitchen. There is a good community feel there and a lot of regulars but you also run into a lot of new peeps all the time. They use a quarter system to set your place in line at the pool table and if I remember correctly its $1 for a game, but keep winning and you dont pay, but they do have some good players so dont expect it. The Karaoke DJ Michael is great and finds songs for us but be sure to tip your Dj. I think they start at 7pm, but im sure its dependent on availability. I went once for live music and I think it was Mexican/Country music but dont quote me on it, I was drinking a couple pitchers of Mich Ultra. The pool tournament started late and once fun but if I remember correctly it was bank 8 and maybe ball in hand but that was a long tome ago and I cant remember. Thd late start was on a school night and the next morning was rough so that was a bummer despite getting pretty far in a double elimination tourney. Overall its a great place to visit. Only cons is that the bartender cuts my juke boxsongs when its slayer or other loud metal bands or turns the volume down when I want it loud. Otherwise its a great place where you can expect a lot of 90s or later hip hop and R&B as well as Country music. Its always fun to see if you can get a whole slayer song through but do it at your own expense. Bathrooms are basic but for 99% of the time clean and it can get busy Friday to Sunday

What an unexpectedly fun night!…read more I honestly had no idea what I was walking into when a friend told me I had to check out Bikini Lounge because they know I'm drawn to all things eclectic. They were absolutely right. From the moment the friendly bouncer smiled and said, "Step right on in," I was hooked. Yoooow!! The first DJ was incredible. He was spinning all kinds of trip-hop, indie, electronic, and remix-style tracks that had everybody partyin'. It wasn't your typical dance music, but every song seemed to connect with somebody in the room. The crowd was incredibly diverse, and it was so much fun watching people of every age and style dancing and nobody cared. The second DJ, a younger woman, shifted the vibe a bit and leaned more toward a younger crowd. It wasn't quite my style, so I took that opportunity to grab a seat at the bar and do what I apparently do best... chat with complete strangers. I'm a talker, and thankfully they seemed just as happy to strike up a conversation. This isn't some fancy cocktail lounge, and that's exactly the point. It's authentic. There were people dancing at the bar, grooving in their booths, bouncing in their seats, and filling the dance floor with great energy. I came by myself, and within minutes a cool group of strangers invited me to squeeze into their booth like we'd all come together. That's the kind of place this is. At one point they even offered me a glass of beer from their pitcher. I politely declined (look at me making responsible life choices... sometimes), but then I realized almost everyone had pitchers! So I sauntered over to the bar. I did have to wait a bit; apparently chivalry doesn't extend to letting a woman cut the line, but once I reached the bartender, the service was fast and friendly. Every trip back to the bar was the same. No complaints there. As the night went on, the energy just kept building. Before I knew it, I was on the dance floor sweating, smiling, and dancing with complete strangers. After a while, I had to retreat to the patio just to catch my breath before heading back in for more. My ankles are still sore... and the glutes? Fuhgetabouttit! The best part of the night wasn't the music or even the drinks. It was the people. Every generation was represented. Every fashion style imaginable. Every personality. And somehow it all worked. There was this genuine sense of joy and community that you just don't find everywhere. If you're looking for polished and upscale, this probably isn't your spot. But if you want great music, a welcoming crowd, zero pretension, and one of those nights where you leave happier than you arrived... give Bikini Lounge a shot. I went in not knowing what to expect. I left wondering why I'd waited so long to go.

Our waiter forgot our drinks at the bar, and we had to stop the bartender ourselves to confirm whether the drinks were ours. The manager came to our table twice but never introduced herself or even acknowledged us. She simply dropped off our appetizers without saying a word. What made the experience worse was that she never addressed the poor service, checked on us, or offered an apology. After we spent $225, we were left wondering whether we were being treated differently because we are Black. Regardless of the reason, the lack of attention and professionalism made us feel overlooked and unwelcome. For a restaurant, good food should be matched with good hospitality, and unfortunately, we experienced neither. We left feeling disappointed and would not be in a hurry to return.
