Cool little spot to hang. Drive too fast you might miss it, but recommend to slow down and give it a try. They have food truck Friday's so that's fun. Pool tables and darts. Love this spot and fun people to chill with. Bartenders are very nice and fast and getting you your beers read more

Justin and Erika alone made this trip worth it. Erika was so personal and Justin made me feel so welcomed.

Fun spot great pizza and perfect drinks Chinese food next door is good as well! Welcome to the pub read more

Baseline Pub - My favorite cocktail thanks Kattie!! - Dive Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

"I'm not sure what was going on with this short red head gal who was bartending, but I asked her three times for a drink and it wasn't until then she finally produced the drink. Following that she gave me the wrong change twice and I had to do the math for her. After that I went to the second bartender, which was far more efficient and positive. All in all, it was a great night assuming the short one can hear and count." read more

My friends came in for a night and the bartenders got pissed they didnt tip the first round and decided to cut them off and call the police on them for not tipping read more

I grew up in this neighborhood. Came to this bar multiple times in the past, and my brother was a patron for years. So when my new boyfriend was given a free drink chip by someone, he couldn't wait to come by and play some pool. We showed up on Easter Sunday. It was pretty empty, except for a giant bunny earred bartender (who instigated most of what happened next), and a few customers, about six of whom were sitting at the bar. The bunny barwench first tried to hide my boyfriend's drink chip, then, as he was getting $5 of quarters out of the change machine, I accidentally lifted my que stick too far and it caught a ceiling fan. It was sudden, it was funny. I started laughing. The bar wench came out from behind the bar right away, started yelling, as did her posse of drunks who were sitting there, probably tipping, drinking and staring at her tits all day. So then they felt they needed to "interfere." My bf didn't even get the chance to pick up his change for pool, as we shoved out the door (which later a manager claimed we broke). We were walking away in the parking lot, and this gang of drunks were following us maliciously. I knew at one point they were about to attack my guy, so I told them they are not doing it without hitting me too. So one did. I fell to the ground, glasses and bracelets broken, sustaining serious injuries to my chin, jaw, and arm, as well as bruising all over. My bf was attacked too. I just remembered one coward jumping into a white truck and peering out as the cops were coming. We were asked if we wanted to press charges, we wanted to just be done with this, in shock, pumping blood and adrenaline. We walked down the street for a bit to calm down. When we returned, the police were gone, but our car was vandalized by someone either taking a baseball bat or a rock to the hood. I called two days later to see if bar management wanted to take any responsibility. I was treated like absolute shit, told they were going to press charges on me (why didn't they?), said we damaged the door (bs), and refused to give back $5. There. Posting this and the pictures. Wish I could give this place negative star rating. read more

Baseline Pub - Dive Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

See all

This little dive bar never disappoints! The staff is always friendly, the jukebox is always banging, the air is cool, and the drinks are super reasonably priced. Pro tip- order Chinese food from the place next door and take it to the pub! Win- win! Darts, pool tables, patio, atm, TV's! read more

Baseline Pub - Chinese food and drinks! Win win! - Dive Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Go to this bar at your own risk. I was leaving the bar and had a joking conversation with my friend. One of the workers at the bar (tall white guy) had to interject, I told him to mind his own business, but he confronted me and then one of his siblings (short Asian girl) assaulted me. The worker told me I would not be invited back to the bar, which I'm okay with, but that's not how you treat customers. read more

Great place to hang out. The beer selection is VERY surprising. Cold beer and cold glasses. Definitely a neighborhood favorite. KayDee at the bar was always available and very friendly. Thanks guys. read more

Dropped by here with a few friends and it's a very clean bar, with clean mens bathroom which is a nice surprise lol. The bartender was very nice and served us fast. I was able to use my app to play songs which is so convenient, but the speakers are either only around the pool tables and large space up front or the speakers were just super quiet because it was hard to hear a lot of the songs. They serve pizza and possibly some other food. We didnt try any , but is be open to trying out the pizza next time. read more

No food at this bar. So that is kind of a bummer. The service was average but good if sting at the bar. I did like the ambiance though. Feels like a neighborhood type bar. I know that there is a food truck on Fridays that visits so I will have to keep in mind to eat before going to Baseline Pub. I plan on going back. Really relaxing atmosphere and real chill here. read more

Great little hidden neighborhood bar. Not really a dive bar but some might say so. Baristas are always friendly and the beer is cold. I believe there is at least one pool table and a dart board. Not a sports bar but there are a number of TV's behind the bar and are usually tuned to sports events. Good and inexpensive drinks. Lot's of regulars in here so it's a hang out for some. Wish they had PBR tall boys on hand. Then I might visit more often. I don't believe they get PAC12 station in case you are a Sun Devil Fan. That would be a good add as well. read more

Bartender was no welcoming just really interested in her regular customers. Waited about 10 minutes for her to finish her conversation had one beer left. I will not be a regular there. read more

Great service and good people. Kaydee is the best!. Love the atmosphere and would highly recommend!. The owner, Beth, is a sweetheart!.

I've sort of started going here a lot more over the past few months and everyone who works there is nothing short of amazing! Def always such a great experience and a fun time to be around and such great alcohol pricing.Id def recommend! read more

Ishmael (I hope I spelled that correctly) is a great bartender. Quick, efficient and attentive. He always has a smile on his face and seems so genuine with all the customers. One day I went in there and the other woman bartender was just as kind and fun to be around. This bar also has plenty of pool tables and dart boards. So much fun and a great location. read more

One of my favorite local bars. Beth and the regulars are wonderful. Drinks are well made and well worth it. Can even work from there and allows for delivery of food. read more

This place is great for cheap drinks, but don't expect anything beautiful when you walk in. It's definitely a dive bar, but that's one of its best qualities. We come here to play pool and darts, as well as for the cheap drinks, but they don't sell food. They only have some popcorn and peanuts and a vending machine in the corner. Still, i'll be back to dive it up again and again. read more

In my humble opinion, Baseline Pub is a 5 star dive bar ;0). This place is always clean, all of the staff I've met are great. I'll mention Beth specifically for being "an excellent salesperson" but everyone who works there have been great. The drinks are excellent, they have pool and darts, and the patrons are nice. If you like music, they have a great sounding system. Oh yeah, no food besides snacks, but you can go next door and get Asian or Mexican and eat it at the pub! read more

Great little place to grab a cold beer. Surprisingly busy for a Tuesday. Very diverse mix of patrons. I'd go back again.

I'm used to the cringe-worthy bar tabs that can be accrued while bar hopping in Tempe. After frequenting Baseline Pub on several occasions with my friends, I've been pleasantly suprised by their inexpensive drink selection and shot prices. This bar is a great dive. TV's, darts, pool tables, cool bartenders, great drink prices and always a fairly lively crowd. Not much else I can ask for. We stopped by the other night for my friends' birthday and I ordered a round of a very specific shot. When the shots arrived, it was easy to deduce that the bartender didn't know how to make the ones I asked for. I was happy to order another round of the correct mix, but she comp'd the round for us and kept the peanuts coming! We'll definitely be coming back soon. read more

Best dive bar in the valley. If you're from the Midwest pop in during the night and you'll feel like you never left home. Cheap drinks and bartenders can pour a drink. read more

Fantastic neighborhood bar with peanuts you throw on the floor. If you want to food it's a bag of chips or frozen pizza. Darts and pool tables and jukebox make this a great spot. read more

Baseline Pub - Pizza! - Dive Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Well I'm the scope of dive bars in the Rural/Baseline area, this is king. I walked into everyone singing country music, cheap drinks and FINALLY good looking and friendly bartenders. I've driven past this place 200 times and never stopped. Shame on me. As I look for my "go to" dive bar in the area......this may be it. No food though. Unless you count the Tombstome pizzas thrown in the whatever oven behind the bar....... read more

The Baseline Pub is awesome. I have been coming here for some time and I am always satisfied. Now this place is a total dive bar, yet it has all of the intangibles: a hot bartender, good music, thick drinks and a cast of regulars that belong on a TV show. The pub is ringed by hi-def flat screens. They have a wide variety of sports on all day and they will be carrying the NFL package this season. There are 3 pool tables that you can usually get on without much of a wait. Electronic darts, Golden Tee Live and Big Game Hunter also available. Happy hour is pretty much all day long, you can get a tall Goose and tonic for $5.50 and the beer is pretty cheap too. They have several running specials on Jerimiah Sweet Tea etc., but I just stick with Vodka. Even at night the prices are more than reasonable. Stop by for a few and get to know the Pub. read more

Baseline Pub - Beth tends bar mon-fri 10am-7pm - Dive Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Good Music, Decent Tables and Cool Dive Bar Since I was out on a hopping tour of Tempe area heading bar after bar. I thought I would give this place a try. I walked in got myself an orange juice some quarters for the pool table played a couple games and enjoy the fact that they actually had a decent music which was the only place I've been to tonight that I actually had music that didn't make me want to run away. The place was jumping with people everywhere. I was lucky when I got there to have a pool table ready for me. The female bartender seemed friendly, she didn't have too much to say but seem nice enough. I didn't stay long since the night was drawing on and I was starting to get a little bit tired. Seems like a cool spot to go hang out with some friends shoot some pool and play some darts. It would be worth coming back to again in the future. read more

I've been to a few dives in Mesa (Septembers, Kirk's Sports Bar, etc.) this by far is probably the best dive I've been to. Reviews here are right--newbies (like by husband and I were) are treated like we frequented this place for years. Beth is fantastic, always has a smile on her face and is super sweet. My hubs and I have been here 2 times, both after work for a quick beer. Both times were pleasant. The bar atmosphere is pretty kickin' too. I love the rapport between the regulars, they can get a little rowdy but hey, its a BAR. Anyone new (like myself) can quickly see that the comradery is all in good fun with a group of people who really seem to know each other well. It is actually quite entertaining to watch! It really has a "Cheers" feeling to it in some ways. I can't wait to frequent this place more and be part of their crowd. Bottom line, I like this place. It will be my go-to watering hole for a quick one before I head home after work. read more

If you're looking for a dive bar without the skeeze layered on thick, consider this gem. I know, why call it a dive if there aren't painted-up hussies propped on bar stools and you're not afraid to contract something lasting from touching the bathroom features? Because it's more like that neglected house down the street owned by the Cat Lady that has chipped paint and an overgrown yard, but when you stop there on Halloween she always has those awesome popcorn balls. Or that ottoman that's a little frayed around the edges and is patched with duct tape to keep the upholstery skirt on, but it's the comfiest damn foot rest. Despite the looks, the bar is a local watering hole that attracts your quirky neighbors. Someone brought in the pelt of a javelina they'd shot the day prior to show it off to his buddies. Ever seen one of those ugly things up close? You just might get the chance if you decide to check it out. Chuy's two doors down will serve as a neon-lit mecca for mass consumption, while Baseline Pub will remain the watering hole in the wall that's a little more mellow and a little rougher around the edges. Happy hour is twelve hours long, from ten to ten, so they don't really have any drink specials, but the prices are cheap so that's not really an issue. Plus there's the requisite pool tables that every good dive has, so you've got something to occupy your time in addition to conversation with the locals. The down side is that the mixed drinks are a bit on the weak side, so stick with beer. The music selection kind of sucks at times, with either country western or classic rock playing. (Cross your fingers for the classic rock.) The waitresses are pretty inattentive as well, so make sure there aren't any lapses in conversation, because silence sure drags long without something to quench your thirst. read more

"She's new, go easy on her" said the other waitress. An hour-and-half later, the food we ordered was delivered--but not all at once... to our party of nine. The food was typical for a bar so my 2 stars ought not reflect upon that. The only redeeming quality of this place is that it had no sign prohibiting firearms. read more

I don't have much to say. My friend left me waiting here for her because she was late getting out of ASU. It was pretty dark, kinda divey, but the beer was CHEAP as heck so I had one...or two. Didn't eat anything or look at any menu. A bit musty for that. Bartender was fine, but it was early evening and not too many people around. read more

Pretty small bar, had a few beers at the bar and played a few rounds of pool. I went during the late afternoon. I only went it because a friend invited me to drink a few with her. other than that I dont really want to go on my own. seemed cool, pretty relaxed place. But any place that has at least 2 or more tables is OK with me.. read more

Went to pop in for a quick drink to see what the bar was like. Service was incredible. Beth was a sweet heart came out to the table to greet us. Asked our names when we asked for hers, came and gave us attention often with the bar being pretty occupied. The bar was clean and had a great vibe to it. I definitely will be coming back here and often! read more

It shocks me that this place hasn't been reviewed yet. It's been a staple in the Mill/College/Baseline community for a long time now. BSP is one of those places where you go, you like it, but you realize something is missing and you just don't know what it is. I still don't know what it is and I first went there in 2002. The inside is very nice, tvs are situated nicely around the tables, food is okay and there is outdoor seating. I never find myself going here to watch games though or even to go grab a meal. I was here for an ALCS game in 2004 and it was the most packed I've ever seen it. I haven't seen it that way since, not even for football. Now I go in on a very irregular basis because various softball teams I played on have had their post games here. I notice on weeknights it has somewhat of a Cheers atmosphere. Regulars sitting up at the bar who know waitresses (who also double as bartenders) by name. I think the inside might just be too luxurious though. Furniture looks more like a restaurant and I think the average sports fan (and this is a sports bar) likes more of a dive bar feel. I couldn't understand why Doc & Eddy's, which is right up the road, gets far more patrons for sporting events. It's a more divey bar with similar food. I know it's got more to do with it than having pool tables and air hockey. The Woodshed is also walking distance to the west. I think BSP just toes the line between casual restaurant and sports bar and that might be what's hurting it. Looks like a place you might take your girlfriend for dinner rather than your buddies for a playoff game. It's so well situated between Kiwanis park and numerous apartment complexes that it should be far more popular during game times. I've just been in far too many times when people at the bar exceed people at tables. I still can't put my finger on it... read more

Baseline Pub - Golden tee AND darts ? Yes please! - Dive Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

One of the best dive bars in the valley. The owner Tom is hella cool as is the rest of the staff. Filled with many awesome regulars as well.

I loved this place! Coming from Colorado and just visiting, this was a home away from home. Erika, our bartender, was great! Very attentive and sociable. read more

I really want to give this 4 stars, I do. I had been there probably 20 times. Half of those times were awesome! The other half, ranged from bad to so bad we actually left before getting served but after waiting over a half hour. and that was twice. if you go there when it's quiet, it's pretty cool. if it's busy, good luck. read more

Fun little local watering hole. Surprisingly newbies aren't neglected! Good prices, multiple draft selections. Beth is lovely. "Dive in"!

Erika is the best bar tender...she also makes a tremendous gourmet pizza...you gotta try it
