This establishment is quite funny and by funny I mean a joke. We came to Copper Blues for dinner before the Suns game, when we went to order drinks we were turned down because our Alberta identification was not acceptable, instead we were required to have our passports "per Arizona state law" we were refused alcohol service because there was no way to verify that our identification cards were "legit" in their verification book, I have to admit... I thought google would have been a good alternative to an ancient book.. After being refused service I looked up the Arizona department of liquor, and it clearly states : "(1) An unexpired driver's license, identification card from any state or Canada provided it includes a picture of the licensee, and birth date" - http://www.azliquor.gov/faq.cfm#idforms If you don't plan on carrying your passport with you around town then I would not recommend this joint. Ps. The food is sub par at best read more

Came in on Saturday night for some drinks and food. First off, getting a table was nearly impossible (open seating). The atmosphere of this place was cool and they had a live band. Our server was friendly and informative but seemed very rushed which was unpleasant. She made some beer/liquor suggestions and they did not disappoint although I feel my glass could have been filled more (see picture). For an appetizer we got spinach and artichoke which was great but nowhere near enough chips for the dip. Some of the items on the menu weren't available so we opted for the nachos which were OK. When you've been drinking, anything tastes edible. I would come here more for the atmosphere than the food.. Just being honest. Good place to pregame. Free beer shot with yelp check in was cool! read more

We went to the Copper queens show. For purely entertainment reasons. It was a total disappointment! There was no show. It was just a bunch of drag queens walking through the crowd getting tips I would not recommend this show! The menu is very short and not very good. read more

I really missed copper blues. I need to come here more. The people. The crowd. The chatter. The music. The random laughs. The food. It's truly a great time. Bartenders are always friendly and available. Love music every night and nachos are to die for. Come quick. read more

Avoid this place at all costs. I'm not one to write a review unless my experience was absolutely terrible. I sat down alone and there were only two other tables seated outside with me at this point. It was a pretty quiet Monday night. I apologize in advance and let the waitress know that I have some pretty crazy dietary restrictions. I kindly ask her to check with the kitchen on what ingredients they use in the hummus. She puts in my meal and forgets to ask about the hummus. 35 minutes later she sends someone back to check. My food comes out an hour later, and the entire order is wrong. I had to ask a different waitress for the check. As I was leaving I warned customers considering eating there to not go. Would not recommend. read more

Our server Sam was amazing. Great local knowledge and off menu beer options. You won't be disappointed!

Our waitress was great. Our food was really bad. There were several things we ruled out. However, fried chicken sandwich... Okay it was bad. How bad was it? Well, I got the ranch and sriracha sauce and dipped the bread in it. Yes, the bread was less dry than the chicken. Ugh Beer was cold. Service was good. Great views. Don't eat here. Arrogant Butcher is just around the corner. read more

Horrible service. After a disappointing evening a while back I decided, unfortunately, to take a few colleagues to coppers. The waitress had the nerve to bring up the review that I posted. Very strange - Abd the previous review was not critical of them .... So, I think the entire culture if thus place stinks! I can't wait for downtown to get a truly professional club!! read more

Very nice happy hour spot!! Located beside Stand Up Live with a great view into the city Copper Blues is your happy hour destination. Delicious food at a reasonable price, live music, nice crowd, strong drinks what more can you ask for? read more

Happy was worth it. Literally half off drinks. Selection of Appetizers was great and tasty. The amount of food was plenty for two. Live music was the reason we chose to go here. It started at 5:00. Which is great when you do not want to stay out late. The music was very loud, but after a few drinks who cares. read more

Overall it's two separate bars, basically a sports bar, and then a dance bar (most people grinding along the bar). Of course I chose the bar with more energy and fun to sit at. The music they were playing was not recent, basically 80's dance, not my favorite but some like it. Try to come when there's actually live music playing. It's mainly a bar, with part dancing. Not a place to lounge, it's a restaurant style set up, thought that might be helpful to know. The interior was decorated alright, good use of lighting and color but most of the space was used for restaurant tables. There are some couches you can sit at with some tables. read more

I have been here a few times to listen to music. There was a band that I particularly liked, but the last time I was there, dunno. It wasn't speaking to me. Therefore, I won't mention the band. Sometimes it is hard to get a place to sit, but if one waits till after break time of the second band, which is usually around 10:00-10:30, a lot of people clear out. And, voila! Lots of places to sit. I'm not particularly into greasy bar food, so haven't seriously tried their food, but their drinks aren't bad. Just make sure they don't get watered down as the night gets later. I like the place. It's clean. The restroom is shared by the comedy club next door. read more

Band was awesome. Loved the vibe. Hanna was great and so was the management and rest of the staff!! Can't wait to come back next weekend

Service was a little slow to say the least. I know there was concert and a limited menu, but plan accordingly! Chicken nachos were great, quesadilla was average, pepperoni pizza was pretty tasty too. We had a few drinks too. It was super busy!! Furious George was playing and they were really good!!! I would definitely go back. Also, we took the light rail from east mesa and it brought us right here. read more

After leaving Chico Malo, being turned away from the bar we were let in 15 minutes early,excited to order food and drinks. Unfortunately we waited over 55 minutes with little to no service, after speaking to manager and assistant and manager on the duty as well as our server and finally received five of our 8 drinks, while tables that arrive after had received both. We waited an additional 20 minutes and still didn't receive those drinks or food. This is definitely some of the worst customer service I've ever received and I've worked in the hospitality industry and know that things happen. I would never going to Cooper Blues Rock pub on a game day as they are under prepared and ill-equipped to take care of big groups. read more

The queens were wonderful but the services was terrible!!! I waited over 45 mine for one refill. It definitely took away from the show. I really do think it was only our waitress. Out section was waiting but everyone else seems fine. It took so long to get a refill I asked one other waitress and the manger and they both ignored us. I wanted so badly to have a nice time but the aerobe was so bad you can't ignore it. I would no go back. read more

My bestie/roomie took me out to for a belated birthday here! It was such an awesome experience!! Although the venue was almost empty, my friend had called ahead and they reserved a table for us for brunch. I had ordered the nachos w/o eggs and they gave me a drum to beat!!! Ahh it was so much fun and it was just so delicious! I wasn't expecting it at all and definitely will be over again just to relive the experience. Our server Kate, recommended for me a delicious grapefruit/rosemary drink which I loved. She checked in on us at right times and even brought me a water with lemon before I could ask for it (she also still got me another drink lol). 10/10 would recommend! It's in a great location as well, a walk away from the stadium for the basketball games and other activities. read more

I came in Saturday morning with some friends to have a good time downtown, a little Saturday funday! Our server gabby made our experience at copper blues memorable in the best way! Between her recommendations for apps and cocktails, we will definitely be coming back to see her! Overall an amazing start to our Saturday all thanks to her!! read more

I went in tonight to hangout before the chiefs game started, Gabby was our server and she was a sweetheart and was smiling the entire time. Great beer & better food. read more

I'm back in Phoenix this weekend after having moved to CA. Decided to check out the first Sunday brunch with live music at Copper Blues. All I can say is that if I still lived here, I would be here every Sunday for brunch. The food, music and service were unparalleled. Thank you Copper Blues! Every city should have this.. Please come to Sacramento and open one!!! read more

I came from Arkansas to visit and saw where Trailer Trash Tammy was performing ! So excited and bought tickets for the show ! I wasn't expecting how accommodating and nice the staff and manager were ! They made our experience one of the best I will defiantly be back ! Thank you guys for excellent service read more

I've been here several times, and previously it was acceptable. This time, service was atrocious, I think someone called the police for a wellness check on our server, she was MIA for 3 hours, our party all wen to the bar to get drinks throughout the night. The chicken sandwich was okay, I wouldn't buy it again. Overall a subpar experience, we left because of the service. read more

Wow. I am obsessed with this place. The manager Kelly is so helpful and so kind. He was able to accommodate my large party and he made it so enjoyable. Staff is very friendly and the chicken sandwich is amazing! Great live music and great place to watch sports! read more

About 3 years ago on St. Patrick's day a group of us decided to day drink and bounce around downtown. We were completely blasted by 4pm and ended up at City Scape. One of the bars/restaurants under Copper Blues was having open interviews and in my Irish Whiskey style I drunkenly stumbled over to the table, sat down and started talking to the dude that was sitting there. I'm sure I was obnoxious, no- I take that back- I was obnoxious. He asked if we were headed to Copper Blues and I laughed and proceeded to tell him it's a douche bar. He sent us upstairs and had us drop his name and treated us to an appetizer and a few sodas to sober us up a bit. (Don't worry- we took an Uber) My mind wasn't changed at that moment but it was a great impression. What he didn't tell us was that he's the owner, we found out through the waitress. A few more events came up and I always accepted the invitations and my mind slowly began to change. I have to say that now this is my all time favorite bar. No fighting, no one getting punched in the face, everyone is out to have a good time, music is great, food is good, and everyone there is just happy. The service is amazing- considering the place is always packed and even the bathrooms are nice and clean! We even paid to spend NYE there, and IMO it was the best one we've had in years. We live in Ahwatukee so it's a pricey Uber/Lyft but it's worth it. Sorry to the owner, I was wrong- it really is a great bar. read more

I've been here a few times and I like this bar overall. There are a lot of business people who go and that makes it feel a little classier than gypsy. They have a huge beer selection and the drinks are pretty tasty. They are a bit pricey though. They always have live music and the band plays above the main bar and it's really cool looking. I'd say this bar is less dancey and more chill at a bar stool/table etc. The only other real downside, other than the price is that it tends to be a real taco fest, so if you're a single lady that can be disappointing. Everything is clean and elegant. It is a bit more upscale than most bars around there, but you will fit in wearing jeans and a t-shirt or a dress with heels. It is a little less hipster full than the usual too so I enjoy it when I'm sick of the hipster scene at lost leaf. read more

This place is great and one of our typical stops on the weekend. One great thing about them is that they have live music every weekend! They are almost always great bands. They also have an amazing beer selection of over 60 beers on tap! The only thing that really brings it down to a four star is that it can get a bit expensive! Their beers generally range from $5-8 and only some local beers apply to happy hour. Their Happy hour is from 3-6, with great deals on their appetizers and pizzas. Their food is also delicious! Try the nachos. read more

I quickly became a regular here during my week long business trip to Phoenix. You can't go wrong with a place that has as many taps as they do. You're sure to find something you like! They had live music (Tues.) and live band karaoke (Thurs.) It is pretty loud sitting inside when this is going on so don't go in expecting to have a conversation or alternatively, sit outside. The bartenders were really nice but the table servers were a bit impatient. The beers were pretty reasonable but some were a costly. They also poured a double whiskey on rocks by default which made it $14! If I lived near here, I'd probably check it out after a game or as a stop during a bar crawl. read more

Went here before Kenny Chesney concert and had a pizza and some fries , the place was packed but surprisingly the service was great and we got our food quick . Played good music and great atmosphere read more

I don't usually take the time to leave reviews like this unless my service was really poor or exceptional. My experience exceeded all expectations. My wife and I came the other night to celebrate our 2 year anniversary. We had a great server who's name was Aurora. She was bubbly, always smiling, and just running around that place to make sure everyone was taken care of. She even gave us a new beer recommendation, The Left Coast Asylum which is now our new favorite. For food we had these pretzels, the copper wings, and Mac and cheese. All of it came out fast and delicious. We mainly came for the drinks and let me tell ya, Aurora kept them coming! She made sure we were never empty and that we both had a cold one at all times. If you're thinking about coming here, you really should. It was a wonderful experience thanks to the friendly staff, excellent food and our sweet server. A beautiful night my wife and I will never forget. read more

Had such a great time last night. The music was great and the food was served in a timely manner. Aurora was such a great server, she was so sweet and made sure we had everything we needed! Definitely will be back! read more

Check in for a free beer shot (shot of beer)! There are over 60 beers on tap. Fries: These are so good! The fries are seasoned very well and taste great by itself or with the Sriracha ranch sauce. They weren't quite as crispy as I would have liked, but for me, the seasoning made up for it. The Sriracha ranch added a nice spicy kick. I would definitely order this the next time I'm here. Shrimp pizza: This was okay. The tomatoes were delightful. the dough was nice, and the sauce was savory. I just wish there was some more shrimp on the pizza and that the shrimp would taste fresher. Maybe it was just the few that I had, but the shrimp just didn't taste that fresh to me. Atmosphere: I was here on a Friday night, and the place was pretty full. There was a live cover band inside, which I believe was air-conditioned. It was a fun place. read more

So we finally got a chance to check out Copper Blues in downtown after driving past it for a while. Glad we did! We had a super fun time here. This was my first time but won't be my last! When I liked about the bar so much was the cool strange that is behind the bartenders. Mad the center of attention of the bar focused on the band playing and it was a nice touch having all the taps of craft beer at the base of the stage. Speaking of craft beers, they have over 60 and they are great! Kinda like a live music Yard House. We came here in a night of a Dbacks game. Bar was crowded but because there are 3 bars, and a dedicated area for smokers right outside the. Bar, I really didn't have to wait for a drink or find a place to stand and watch the band. Band was great. So how can I rate a place that has live music and craft beer anything lower than 4 stars.lol. I didn't have any food, but I think I might have found my too go before Dbacks game or event downtown spot. read more

A friend of mine and I visited Phoenix on Christmas day from Los Angeles. We expected a clouded bar as this is one of the few bars open around downtown. Fortunately the venue had plenty of room. Copper Blues was located in the center of the city. Obviously it is a prime location. There was an Ice Skate Rink outside of the building, and many people were enjoying skating under winter night sky. I ordered a beer and the copper burger. Copper Blues had a wide variety of beer. The service was prompt and friendly, and the food was fairly good and satisfactory. Free music made our night more enjoyable. It was far better than we expected from a random bar on Christmas day. Thank you Copper Blues for warming up the travelers' hearts on a possibly lonely holiday night. read more

Had reservations here at 5pm for the Ken Jeong Stand Up Live show. Waited 40 minutes and still didn't have water served or even a waitress/waiter. We asked three different waitresses for service and still completely ignored. It is now 5:45pm and we still don't have water. One of the waitress said they are extremely understaffed, which seems to be a management issue. It's no excuse for patrons to be waiting for so long without even being acknowledged. We didn't even get menus. We had to get our own menus. It looks like self-seating, self-grab menu, and being completed ignored was their special for the evening. I guess we were the joke for the night. Completely disappointed. The steak bites and quesadillas were pretty good though. Probably three stars if it wasn't for the service. Edit - I changed this from one star to four because the GM, Fabio, came and sincerely apologized. He showed us that this was out of the norm because two people were no shows, and did everything to try to fix our experience. Will try this place again after he did that. read more

Instead of handling our situation like adults and professionals, this garbage place had my yelp review taken down. I'm astounded that this establishment chooses to run this way. Just to let you all know my original review went over how one of the "managers on duty" kicked myself and our party out a few nights ago and the exact reason is still unclear. It was obvious to us that he must've known the group that was sitting behind us that started drama with us and felt it necessary to get rid of us. We're all still in shock this happened and it's clear that we'll probably have a chance to speak to anyone about it. Cool! Also FYI, the only good thing about this place is that they sometimes have live music. That's it. read more

Had a 10 person band play, with all kinds of different instruments last night. The band was truly amazing and played such a wide variety of up best music. Kiss FM was also there and offered $.01 drinks, so our table got a free round! There was probably 80 beers on tap, had the big blue van beer and it was delicious. Never heard of a lot of the beers, but have so many local beers to try! read more
