I love this bar! Has such a unique vibe to it. The drinks are reasonably priced and the bar food menu is small but very good, as well as really affordable. This bar knows what it is and doesn't try to be anything else. Bartenders are cool as well. Gotta say the spectrum of people that frequent this bar is one of the most diverse I've ever seen. read more

My review of this place is long overdue. Things I love about Gracie's: -$3.99 well drinks -The most amazing bartenders in the entire world who are all total babes -Not having to see what I look like drunk in the light -$3.99 well drinks -Recent effort to conserve straws -When Manny covers Seal -Jade's killer social media game and camo t-shirts -The bar cat's cat nip -General acceptance of inappropriate and dark jokes -$3.99 well drinks -Seriously, guys---really fast and accurate service by a team of hardworking, genuine, and kind people Things I hate about Gracie's: -I am in love with it and it's really hard to tell if it loves me back because it's a bar and I don't know if I've like, friend-zoned it too many times????? -Any of their Yelp reviews that are less than 5 stars -The guy who gave me the Ninja Turtles Valentine that said "to: the cool girl" never showed his face again. read more

My husband and i had date night tonight and we chose this bar. It was nice, loud and dark. There is not much lighting which i dont mind. The bartenders were nice and friendly. The food was good too. Full of flavor and just enough. My husband and i shared a chooped cheese, onion rings, tater tots. I recommend the chopped cheese. Its basically a phillycheese steak sandwich but with ground beef. It was really good and full of flavor and dressings. We had a good time. They have a patio area and its full of misters and feel cool outside. I recommend this bar if yur out to chill and have a drink. Like on a sunday. read more

Love love love this place! Super cool dive bar with great food and drinks. I would highly suggest getting the cheese curds and a cold beer! I love the type of people that this place brings in. Doesn't matter if you have a small or large group Gracies will never disappoint! read more

Local bar with amusing atmosphere. My GF is a CPA I surprised her with a stop at Gracie's. The bartender was friendly and informative of Gracie's history. The killer was my GF's daughter was with us and she knew the only other couple in the bar. Small world. read more

Gracie's got da gudz. Flame-swoll is probably the most taxonomically correct way to categorize Gracie's awesomeness. im a sucker for red ligthing so i already loved this place right when i walked in. then the jukebox played a mix of wu-tang and late 70s-early 80s rock. got me swirling in a lagoon of vibes. vibes vibes vibes. and then just as i was shoulders-deep in that lagoon, they hit me with God Only Knows by the Beach boys. like did i even stand a chance? no, no i didnt. gracie had me right where she wanted me. rapid-fire: the outside area is equally vibe-tastic. great prices. board games so you aren't bored lames. friendly bartenders. short menu with the essentials: fried pickles, o-ringz, something else, and taters tots. trill tots at da chill spot make ya feel hot like an eel's watts i love you gracie. see you soon read more

In an unassuming building with a simple neon "Gracie's" sign on the front of it, when you step inside you're transported to a no-b.s.-cheap drinks-luminiscently-lit dive bar. The drinks hit the spot, especially on a weekday. There's a jukebox with rad tunes on it and shelves of games you can't help but grab. We ourselves, ended up playing old school Battleship and having a good time sinking each others' ships. The patio reminds me of sitting in someone's backyard and just kicking it. I'm genuinely surprised hipsters have not taken over this tiny, super low key bar, but maybe it was timing, I hope they won't anytime soon. read more

Amazing! This place is so cool. It is all red inside and you feel like you're in a whole new place. The food is great as well! The veggie chopped cheese (veggie beef Philly cheese steak) is absolutely amazing!!! Totally loved this place! read more

The service is bad the bartender is grouchie. The clientele is rough. Everyone is on edge and seems to want to pick a fight. I parked in the back parking lot and one of the staff was going thru the back door the rude f_____r wouldn't even hold the door and I had to walk around. Don't come here read more

Very cool new spot downtown. It's a little different than all the other millennial-filled establishments. Cheap well drinks, a handful of craft beers, and a menu of 4 or 5 items. We tried the Chopped Cheese and the fried pickles, both of which were great. I would describe the Chopped Cheese as a Philly cheesesteak with the sliced steak strips replaced with ground beef. The menu fits the atmosphere perfectly. The patio also has plenty of seats and will be a great place to have some beers when the weather is cooler. They also have board games you can play while sitting at a table. If Gracie is taking suggestions, I'd like to see the fried pickles go from pickle spears to pickle chips. But I'll probably order them again either way. Great new bar! read more

Cool place. Nice atmosphere. Friendly people. Cool owner. Board games for the customers. Trick boho vibe to the back patio. The fried pickles are da bomb. The Doors on the Juke, can't beat it. I'll be back. read more

Best. Bar. Ever. My girlfriend and I come here at least once a week. Great drinks, great food, great people watching. The bartenders remember our usual drinks and have them ready for us by the time we sit down. The food menu is small, but I love everything on it. My gf is from Wisconsin and says the fried cheese curds here are even better than in her home town. Plus, sometimes there's even a cat on the patio. read more

This is kind of a modern version of an old dive bar. I like the ambiance with low ceilings over the bar and dim lighting. The servers were very nice. They had a small TV on my side of the bar and it was great to be able to watch the Dbacks game without disturbing the other patrons or turning the place into a sports bar. I had an Oak Creek IPA which was just OK. I get that they are trying to be local with their beer but how about considering a higher-rated Wren House, Pueblo Vida or Mother Road IPA as a possible selection? read more

If you are looking for a neighborhood bar with a relaxed vibe and cheap drinks Gracie's is the spot. Popped over for happy hour on Friday and was pleased to hear there were no happy hour specials, but the $3.75 wells make you happy all the time. The lighting is dark and the bartenders are awesome. I will definitely be back. read more

Are you not from Phoenix? Do you wish to be transported to a vibe of a smaller city? Are you sick of cocktail bars that are just too much? Looking for a delicious drink or craft beer in a super chill, friendly vibe? Gracie's is your place. We played sequence and drank 6$ mini pitchers of craft beer. Highly recommended if you hate every other bar you have been to in Phoenix. read more

Local spot that's hidden!! You probably drive right by it if you didn't see the people walking in and out!! Great STAFF!! Great atmosphere!! Super cool place with zero drama! FRIED PICKLES!! Tater tots!! And the chopped cheese are all great choices!! Kitchen stays open until close so always a chance to snack on bar food!! Don't tell too many people so we can keep it as cool and low key as it is!! read more

Great vibe and affordable. I definitely recommend if you're in the neighborhood to check this place out

Cool new bar. This would be my go-to spot if it were closer to 5th Street. Hipster friendly. Cool AF patio (not dog friendly *total bummer*). read more

Ay. This place is the VIBE. I happened upon Gracie's with a few friends within the last few months, and we can't help but keep coming back almost every weekend. Gracie's Tax Bar is like a dive bar that isn't too dive-y. It's got a retro feel with dim neon lighting and a music-box, hangout spot necessities like their shelf full of easily over 30 board/card games, and a hip/artsy aesthetic with perhaps their best feature, the outdoor intimate patio deck. It you're looking for a local watering hole that isn't too grungy/dive-y, but don't want a flash ditzy bar that gives off the impression that it's cosplaying as a club, Gracie's is for you. It hits that perfect balance, with great music selection, great drinks at an affordable price, and a concise bar menu of snacks to enjoy while just lounging around and having a great time with the homies. Love love love this bar. read more

cheese curds and chopped cheese goes crazy bro.....love a fun lol hole in the wall 5/5 stars

Amazing atmosphere, amazing drinks, and the bartenders were the best! I live in Tucson but came up here to see a concert that was postponed which sucked but in the end, they made my night and was happy I came there! read more

Fun little bar! Decor = minimal, drinks = good, price = good, food = some, jukebox = great, energy and ambiance = awesome! read more

Well drinks are only $4!!! Really awesome patio space with mix and match furniture, booths on the inside, as well as board games. This place is great. read more

I really like the atmosphere of the bar and the patio and staff are super nice. The tater tots are superb. The clientele tends to smoke and wear Cabbage Patch Kids/man bun hairdos a lot but other than that I like it. Just try to ignore the hip couple making out in the corner behind you. And don't order the chopped cheese, it's just not what you think. Tl;dr: we would definitely come back. With friends. (We took turns editing this yelp review, we had so much fun, a testament to the fact that this place is dope :) - highly recommend) read more

Gracie's Tax Bar is one of my favorite places of all time. The staff is friendly and quick to serve, a killer jukebox is available, the drinks are CHEAP, great bar food, and the overall vibe and look of the bar is perfect. The patio is excellent for large groups and is equipped with mister for when it's time to melt in the summer. The inside is cozy and casual with that signature red lighting. There's always something going on at Gracie's whether it be a live musician/DJ, karaoke, or holiday events which is so important for the local Phoenix community. Not to mention, local celebrity Bar Cat is always ready for a visit out on the porch. While I do live out of state now, I always make time for a Gracie's trip filled with cheap cocktails and cheese curds when I'm back home in Phoenix. read more

Gracie's Tax Bar is what it is. No frills dive bar offering delightfully delicious unhealthy bar fare for a reasonable price. I understand the appeal of the vibe for some and I've had a pretty good time here on more than one occasion. That being said, I don't think I am hip or cool enough to fit in with the regulars. I'll still stop in from time to time for some Jameson on the rocks if I'm feeling wild. I encourage everyone to give it a shot and see what you make of Gracie's Tax Bar. They must be doing something right because it's always busy! read more

Exactly the place Phoenix needed! A friendly vibe, great staff and straightforward menu. Did I mention the best fried pickles I have ever had? Most definitely a spot you could come with friends, coworkers, or celebratory drinks anytime of the day! A must stop spot. read more

Gracie's Tax Bar - Negronis on a Friday night ... #TaxBar #Gracies - Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Really great bar with a good vibe. The staff is cool and they have a great patio. Their juke box has some choice options too!

Hands down my favorite bar in Phoenix. I love the bar food menu *cheese curds and tots all dayyy* and they always have the best specials going on. They support foundations in need and spread awareness to important causes while remaining the chillest neighborhood bar. If the Gracie's building had arms, I'd hug it. The patio is dog friendly too so plz bring your cute pup *so I can meet them* read more

Went for the 1st time tonight and have been wanting to go for awhile. It's not what I expected, and that's not a bad thing. I assumed it'd be like every trendy/hipster place in downtown Phoenix, but it's not. It has a divey feel but also really comfortable. If I lived with it walking distance this would for sure be my spot. We had the pleasure of meeting Grace herself, and she is one dope human with a great vision for the place and the future locations (we're hoping for the success). She knew he booze, and the history of brands but also was great to talk to. Music came from an old juke box, Motown hits were playing but I'm sure there's a great variety. There's a shelf full of board games, great patio, perfect options for snacks and a toy grab machine with the most random items but also hella awesome! Will be going back for sure, as often as I can! read more

24 oz PBR's and a jukebox? Count me in. Great vibes here on a Saturday night. I liked the outdoor patio. Also some great bathroom stall poetry. read more

I yelped "dive" bars on yelp. Gracie's came up. Soooo happy I stopped by here to do some business on my phone. This is definitely a classy, cute dive bar - with great customer service & good music. They even offer a few sandwiches, including vegetarian options. Great find, & good beer options. Nice, clean, & spacious. I live in Tempe, but I will return to this spot! I wish there were places like this in Tempe! My photos don't do this place justice. read more

I didn't even know there was a bar there but was looking for cheap cocktails after a mercury game. My two sisters and I went, and it was a friendly, chill atmosphere. I'll go back. read more

Ok guys..... I don't totally get it. This is essentially a dive bar that is 'cool' because it was intentionally divey? Or something? I came in with a friend on a Friday night and the place was super busy. We were able to snag a couple seats at the bar. We were informed they do not have a cocktail menu.... they're not 'that kind of bar.' So you have to order a classic drink of sorts and hope the price is reasonable. Their prices were fairly reasonable.....the drink I got (an old fashioned) was strooooooong and cost around 9$. Probably more than I would expect at your average dive bar, but less than at a fancy cocktail bar (also far less tasty though....I'm talking straight up booze in a glass). My friend got a couple of drinks and got lucky only paying around 5$ each....good deal. Unfortunately, none of the drinks were better than what you could just make at home. The patio area is nice, but so crowded you couldn't hang out out there the night we went. The food looks interesting. Though I wouldn't be opposed to coming back if someone else wanted to go, this wouldn't be a place I would suggest, but that's mostly due to the kind of drinks I personally like. If you just want a place to drink super strong drinks that has a hipster atmosphere, this may be the place for you. read more

Such a great new addition to the downtown Phoenix neighborhood! We stopped in on a hot Saturday afternoon and it was the perfect escape from the heat - dark, cool and pouring a tasty $5 cider...and did I mention a jukebox packed with diverse and amazing music?!? Love the unpretentious atmosphere...we'll definitely be back again and again! read more

one of the best bars in the roosevelt area. always a blast, workers are nice, 10/10 :)

Came here after checking out a few bars in DTPHX. I enjoyed my VodkaTonic with extra lemon while playing some cool games they had on shelf. Time flew right by! Good vibes, good drinks and fun games! Def a spot to hangout with friends. read more

Roxanne put on the red light RIGHT NOW!!! Went on a first date to this bar and I fit right in. Lots of tattoos and jean jackets which I can get down with. read more

Came here with the intention of having a great time tonight with my girls and got turned down! I mean I was only trying to flirt with the man at the doorway, I wasn't even trying to be rude. Played a small joke on him and he got so offended he denied me and my girls to come in. My bike crew comes here all the time! We love this place. Just wasn't expecting that kind of courtesy. Not after how much I've raved about this place. I'm a sad panda. That's all for now. read more
