Patio at well bar
Katie M.

Great local dive bar, outside of the old town hustle. Pool darts and a great patio. Friendly service and fair prices. Drinks are good, great selection of beer.

Cool patio decor

A true gem hole in the wall. Stop in for a cold one, enjoy the view on their patio that had plenty of seating and great shade. Inside was full of cool decor, music, darts, a pool table and other games. They have a daily "power hour" that offers excellent drink specials.

Came in because I've met the night crew several times at my business and they're really nice people. I had nothing to do and really was in the mood to watch some sports with some food so I headed over. Walking in there are plenty of TV's all over, dark lighting, and a bar area up front. They have a pool table which is great because I love to play along with other games like darts. I actually don't drink but I like to enjoy a mock michelada still. The service was great and everyone was friendly and didn't make it weird that I was ordering something non alcoholic. I enjoyed my time here and will probably pop over more often to say hi to my friends in the night crew.

This is what a dive bar is supposed to be. Graffiti and exposed wires in the bathroom. Well done folks! ‍

No better place to watch the Oregon Ducks. True dive bar. If you're looking for a dive bar you found it. If you're looking for. Fu-Fu bar "this is not it!" Cold beer low prices and loud people! Enjoy!!!

Ask the Community - The Well Bar

Do they allow dogs?

Yes, as long as is a nice dog, is on a leash and stays on the patio. We’d be happy to have you and your pup come in.

Are minors allowed before a certain time or is it only 21 and older?

No. It's a bar.

Where would I find a list of the craft beers you have on tap, please? Thanks!

Kilt Lifter pumpkin porter, Blue Moon, Fresh Squeeze and many more in the bottle.

We were in the area looking for a different bar to watch Sunday NFL Game-day and thought we would…read moregive it a try since we saw several TV screens as we drove by. We walked in and for a Sunday afternoon, it was pretty empty. However, we thought why not, plenty of game day viewing options with all the TV's. It was decorated cute for Halloween and the bartenders seamed to know most the customers. Appeared to be a regulars bar. We sat down at the bar and ordered drinks. I didn't catch her name but the bartender was very friendly and attentive. Right after the drinks arrived the music started. It was so loud! You could feel the base in your chest! We could hardly hear each other talk over the music. Turns out there was a DJ we didn't notice when we walked into the bar. Now, the DJ's music playlist was great. However, it was so loud and played over all the games except they would pause during one of the games once in a while. I suspect they were trying to draw in a crowd but clearly that was not the way to do it when it's game day and people were obviously there to watch the games. We wanted to try something to eat off the menu but only stayed for a drink and left. It was just a miserable atmosphere with the loud music at 1pm in the afternoon. Lastly, we noticed the receipt had a "venue fee" charge. What is that and why? Why are we paying to sit at a bar? Just be aware of added fees charged to your ticket.

The beer was cold and food good. However, being 53 years old, I felt like I was 30 years too old to be hanging out here. Was a young crowd.

Go-to dive in Old Town Scottsdale. Love this place. It's been around forever, and you can tell why…read more When you go, you'll understand why people love it so much. It's in the center of all the boujee Snotsdale restaurants, but doesn't adhere to that kind of style. Authentic, lively, classic, cheap. Step back into time at Patties. 10/10. Only bar I'll go to in Old Town.

Updated review: Outgrown…read more Definitely not the same spot I remember from when I used to frequent it. Stopped in a few times and unfortunately the vibe just isn't what it used to be for me. At one point I asked for change for pool and a water. The water showed up, the change never did. Not a huge amount of money, but little things like that leave an impression. A few of the bartenders have a certain je ne sais quoi.... unfortunately not the warm, welcoming kind. There's a level of attitude that just doesn't match my personal experiences or memories of this place. The crowd has changed too. Different energy, different vibe, and maybe just not one I blend with anymore. Suppose I've grown up and maybe it's time to move on. It's a shame because this place was genuinely a staple for me and earned those five stars once upon a time. Back then, it was the staff and the atmosphere that made it. Of the latest visits, the only person who carried that same familiar energy was Derek. He wasn't even behind the bar, but as always, it was a pleasure seeing him. Not the five-star spot for me that it once was, but maybe it's just become a place for the next generation.
