Westbound, located in the MSA Annex and run by the same team behind Tap & Bottle, is such a great spot to grab a drink. The staff is super friendly and down‑to‑earth -- we were from out of town and they gave us great recs, plus they were so sweet to our pup and brought her a water bowl. It was a hot day, so we sat at the bar, and luckily there's plenty of shade and misters, which made it super comfortable. They serve a full bar -- cocktails, beer, wine -- all at great prices with generous pours. I also love that they have a connected shop where you can grab drinks to go, including lots of local and specialty items. It's a perfect stop if you're shopping or eating at the MSA Annex or wandering around the neighboring Mercado San Agustín. read more

Came into WestBound planning on "just one drink" and somehow ended up staying long enough to question several of my life decisions in the best possible way. The real MVP here is Robin behind the bar -- somehow equal parts bartender, chaos coordinator, and wizard. 10/10. Robin deserves a raise, a trophy, and probably their own reality show. read more

A pleasant surprise with great vibes, friendly service and amazing drinks. Popular mixed drinks and beer were on tap and the prices were reasonable. I chose the Monsoon Sunset as the description sounded perfect for a hot afternoon. Wow!!! You will not be disappointed. read more

Same great folks behind Tap & Bottle run this spot, and you can definitely feel the quality. I really like this place--it has a laid-back vibe and a solid selection of drinks. That said, being outside in the summer heat isn't my favorite. Here's hoping it's a short one this year. The MSA Annex is a cool spot with lots of local businesses, and Rollies joining about a year ago has been a great addition to the food options. Service is usually quick and friendly, which keeps me coming back. They've stopped offering on-site bottle shop consumption, but they still carry a great selection of beverages to go. read more

Friendly staff, lots of cute outdoor seating with misters in the hot months and heat lamps in the cooler ones. Lots of tasty food options nearby, too. We enjoyed their Beers Bikes and Boos Halloween biking bar crawl. Love that they offer Parch mixed drinks as an NA options nearby. read more

I tried the Gin Fizz this time and did not like it. The sparkling wine wasn't very good either. Cute space though.

My hot toddy was perfect on a cold Friday night. This is a small outdoor bar in the corner of the container district. They have a really well stocked bottle shop where you can get local and some hard to find liquor's. I have always loved getting a drink here and they have really upped their game with some crafty cocktails. The beer list is also very well curated. read more

Great service, the bartenders are always quick & friendly. The drinks are good & the vibe is on point.

Came here for a round of drinks with some friends. The outside seating is so cute and peaceful, and plentiful. It was my first time trying tepache. Tepache is a fermented beverage made from the peel and the rind of pineapples, and is sweetened, seasoned with powdered cinnamon, and served cold. It came in a can and was surprisingly good! Better than kombucha. They also had a variety of local craft beers. read more

Great bar in the annex! They have a great cocktail menu and the staff are pretty friendly. I love the outside environment, it's a nice change of scenery from the typical bar look. It can get hot/cold depending on the time of year so be prepared. There's lots of food options nearby to eat if you get hungry. I've come here for dates, friend get together, and work events. It's a fabulous space. read more

Maybe it was just me but the drinks here were STRONG! This place didn't feel like Tucson it felt very hip and fun! Tucson needed this spot!

I never thought I'd be raving about a place that sells batched cocktails but here we are. The batched cocktails at Westbound are DELIGHTFUL. I long for the cooler weather to hold out as long as possible here in town so I can enjoy the two different hot toddy options. When it's warmer, the Cactus Wren and the Santa Rosa are our two favorite cold cocktails. Sometimes I'll go hangout at Westbound during the day and drink one of their lower abv offerings while working on my computer. The whole annex is a cute place to hang out and I personally feel like Westbound is the flavor anchor that holds it all together. No matter where you're ordering food from, they're going to have a baller drink option that will complement it perfectly. Oh and be sure to sign up for their rewards program. And get the app! read more

We ordered from the bar and received a cold greeting, started a tab and sat down. The tables were all wobbly, we tried to find a stable one but couldn't and settled for the least wobbly one. The stools are also extremely uncomfortable and, you guessed it, wobbly! We also saw roaches crawling around near the bar during our meal. Gross! The final offense was we were charged for 5 drinks when we only ordered 4. We pointed it out while closing out and were told we are wrong. While we were both looking at the screen we were lied to and argued with and still overcharged. This wasn't our first trip here but, it was our last. read more

I wanted to my guy how Tucson came up with the idea of shipping containers and using them as cool establishments. Him coming from the bay area where theres the point of Oakland they dont have anything nice like this. We arrived on a nice hot Sunday afternoon and was greeted by Heather who welcomed us and provided us drink recommendations in which Cactus wren stood out like a busted lip. We engaged in conversation and she was friendly and enjoy our chats. Truly recommend this joint and you wont be disappointed read more

Great Space in the Annex with a hip, NW Fremont-ish VIBE. We arrived in the afternoon to pick up a half case of our favorite Tombstone varietals. Emily immediately greeted us with a pleasant smile and retrieved our to-go order. The seating options outside were so attractive we decided to stay a while. Once again, the ever-so-helpful Emily offered to re-stow our to-go order back to the refrigerated section of their very cool & well-appointed little bottle shop. This is absolutely the place to be! It was simply a bonus that Westbound happens to be part of the Tap & Bottle family. Highly recommend! read more

I can't believe I haven't already reviewed Westbound! I've been here dozens of times over the years. The Annex is a place I regularly go with my fiancé, to meet up with friends, for book club meetings, and to show off to out-of-towners--but Westbound is the main event for me. Their selection of bottled and canned ciders and beers is solid, but the draft cocktails are the star of the show. They do rotate, so a few of my favorites aren't currently on the menu (Caribeño, Sweetwater), but the new Gin Fizz is so refreshing and delicious. There is something for every taste here, not to mention the bottle shop with a solid selection of local picks. The service is usually quick, even when there's a line, and there's plenty of seating around the Annex is the bar area is full. There's so much to love about Westbound! read more

I love that Tap n Bottle now has an affiliate that serves liquor as well! Went to Westbound for some post-shopping drinks in the MSA Annex on a Thursday. At first it was a bit crowded because cyclists were meeting up to get ready for a 6 o'clock ride but once they left, the space started be a bit easier to walk around in. The drink selection was great. I got a the Crooked Tooth Pico Sour and my partner got one of their reposado tequilas, which she really enjoyed. Staff were friendly and quick to serve us at the bar. Before we left, we went into the bottle shop and picked a bottle of tequila we haven't tried yet. While we were looking, one of the staff came and asked us some questions about what we like and made some great recommendations which were helpful. I will definitely be back! The only thing keeping westbound from 5 stars for me is the flies and the lack of outdoor fans. Other than that, great drink menu and very cool atmosphere! read more

Yet another one out of the park establishment from Rebecca and Scott! These guys know what people want, sometimes before they realize they want it. The MSA Annex is such a cool place! Few dinning options, coffee, little artisan shops, etc. add to the environment! We grabbed Kukai and brought it over to Westbound, grabbed a beer and a cocktail! Yes, yes you read right, westbound has cocktails, really good ones too! Head over and grab a cold one, explore their bottle shop and grab a seat, barside, under the stars or a bit more sheltered inside one of those cool repurposed carts. Good times ahead! read more

Westbound never disappoints! It's located in the MSA annex, home to a fabulous beer, wine and spirits shop, a handful of delicious restaurants, sensational coffee house and phenomenal local boutiques. This spot is a must for out of town guests and Tucson regulars alike. My husband hosted visiting guests recently, who grew up here and moved away years ago. This was their first time at the annex and they were stunned! We sat nestled in a corner seat, listening to the desert frogs out on the prowl from the recent rains. The cool breeze was sensational as we all savored our beer and cocktail choices. Mine was the new offering called "Sweetwater" and it was an absolute delicious gin beverage....which was extremely easy to drink. We frequent Westbound and the annex become it is a wonderful, quirky, uniquely Tucson experience. read more

Tucson needs more refreshing spots for refreshments! What more could be better than enjoying a nice drink in a beautiful courtyard area under a tree with the birds singing and people laughing and socializing? I'll swap for this any day over a loud, gnarly, indoor bar! What I will say in conjunction to my positive note, is that bar staff had a not so friendly way of relating to a group of guests who very innocently also thought it was ok to bring their own beverages.. I get that the bar wasn't ok with it, but, I think to a group of out of towner's, a kind approach would have not left a bad impression for their "unfamiliar with protocol" guests who had no Iil intent and were unaware the courtyard as a whole, being part of the bar.. a simple mistake that was immediately handled with better manners that initially met with by staff.. Outside of that, I look forward to being back on a better day for staff and the company of those alike. read more

Location is great and centrally located. It's in the MSA Annex. Lots of options for food and this is the place to go for drinks. They have a ton of outside seating area and well behaved pets are welcome. Dream prices are comparable for the area. A lot of craft beers, mixed drinks and wine. Lots of local craft beers available. You are able to order from the restaurants that are around the area and they will bring it to you. I thought that was a definite plus. It was a little hot out but it is Tucson so the cold beer and drinks made it a little bit bearable. I really enjoyed being able to order your drinks and being able to walk around the venue while you window shop and enjoy the area. They do have a tap and bottle shop where you can purchase your beer/wine to go. Prices are lower if you take that option. They sometimes have good specials. I would suggest checking out the website for the daily special. read more

This is the bar within MSA Annex and had a lot of beer on tap and specialty cocktails. There wasn't a lot of room around the bar, but we were able to snag a spot at at a nearby table. The coconut drink I had, which I can't remember the name, was made with a lot of flavor. The offered a bamboo straw and I found it hard to drink with as it broke off in a few areas. Probably my fault for trying to bend them. Haha read more

Great atmosphere and great drink choices (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic)! Westbound is an outdoor bar that has plenty of seating, both around the bar and individual tables and booths. You are welcome to bring outside food to enjoy as they do not serve food. Westbound has a bottle shop, directly across the bar, where patrons can purchase wine, whiskey, and beer! I love to grab a Tepache (De La Calle) when I visit. read more

Anything in the Tap & Bottle family is a win in my book, and Westbound is no different. Delicious cocktails/bevvies, great outdoor space, a well-curated carry out selection, good people - all located next to some rad local eats (Kukai FTW). You can even bring your pupper! Excellent spot to meet with friends, share a drink with your date, or take out-of-town guests. read more

This is a very interesting place. The annex has semi truck trailers made in to stores. And at the entrance is this bar, Westbound. I came here after work around 545pm on a Thursday. Nice hipster vibe. Some people had their dogs with them. Service was fast. Nice selection of wine, beers and cocktails. This is the first place I have been that has cocktails on tap (margaritas, Mai tai, etc) prices aren't bad and it's not far from the Mercado read more

I've been to the Annex a few times, and finally got to check out Westbound. It's a cool spot to hang out and have a not so typical drink. They have a nice variety of cocktails that all come from a pull. You can also hit up their cooler of take home brews and wine. My only disappointment was the bartender. He seemed to be annoyed that he was working that day. Otherwise I highly recommend this place to hang out at for a nice day with adult beverages. read more

COVID 19 Update: Westbound is one of my all time favorite Tucson businesses- for the people and the product! :) This review is to offer an update regarding Covid-19 and their current offerings. Since the shutdown went into place, Westbound remained open for takeout/curbside pickup as well as delivery within 7 miles. Now that businesses are starting to re-open, they decided to continue with takeout/delivery only. The bar will remain closed for now. But you can follow their updates on Instagram as well. They are open daily 12-7pm. Delivery available 12-5pm within 7 miles. You can order online, easy peasy! They have been working tirelessly to keep things going. Their cocktails to go have been our favorite! They are packed in mason jars and are enough for abut 2.5 servings. Trust that they have plenty of booze in them too.Support your local bottle shops! In case you don't know, they also own Tap & Bottle downtown and North- both of which are open for curbside and delivery. read more

The staff here is friendly and the atmosphere is really chill. I really enjoy the decor and all the furniture. The ability to go buy inside the store is great too. I love the fact they have cocktails on tap! WTH?!why doesn't everyone have that? I got the silverbell and it was tasty!i recommend this place for couples and families. They just have snacks like chips n peanuts so come prepared or full. Although Beaut burger is right by here until 8:30 pm when they close. This is a cool place! read more

Westbound is the perfect go to place if you're looking for great vibes and a selection of drinks! Honestly it's a no brainer if you are trying to figure out where to drink. The drink selection is decent, with local and nonlocal beers, wines, and premade cocktails. Honestly, i love their cocktails! They are a bit on the strong side, but super tasty nonetheless. There is a decent amount of seating, although it can sometimes get crowded depending on the time of week. If you're looking to still enjoy some sips outside during the summer, there are a couple of booths tucked away with some air conditioning/fans! 100% would recommend to anybody looking to expand their horizons in terms of great places to grab a drink. Plus it's at the annex, so there's plenty of good food and shops nearby to browse! read more

Wow, a beer, wine and cocktail bar west of the freeway. What a nice find. Westbound is made out of cargo containers and is part of a complex of shops. Seating is all outdoors with a grouping of tables on either side of the bar. They have a nice selection of draft beers both local and out of town. They have a fair selection of wines and a couple specialty cocktails. I like the atmosphere which is very casual. Melissa behind the bar made me feel welcomed and was patient as I work my way through the beer list. It is also nice you can order a drink and walk through the other complex shops while enjoying your beverage. For a weekday evening break from the hectic day, this makes a nice place to unwind. read more
