Good old fashioned Whiskey Row fun! I'm too old for the late night shenanigans but during the day it's great. Service is fine, kids nowadays are just lackluster at best while serving, you kinda get what you get. The place itself is old school cool and great for a beer or two. THEY ARE CASH ONLY!!!! They don't say anything because they want you to use the ATM and then they get kick backs from that! Keep that in mind! read more

Good ambiance, great to go and have a quick drink. Clean. Friendly staff ready to serve you a drink.

Awful service. Rude staff. Go anywhere else. Security needs a major update in their training program

I always love going to Matt saloon. This place is always awesome. The bartenders are on it spot on sometimes. Yes there's a little weight due to. There's a lot of people in this place. The ambience depends on what time of the day you're at if it's Friday Saturday evening is usually a live band in there starting around 8:30 and it's pretty packed and not loud but it's pretty decent always some dancing and what not going on. But if it's during the day a little bit more quiet And Obviously a lot less of a crowd but still an awesome place unfortunately they don't have food there, but you can go get food at one of the restaurants around the area and bring it in without a problem. read more

Matt's Saloon - Matts saloon - Bars Near Me - Prescott, Arizona

Was looking at locations to host our company Christmas party and wanted to check out the location. Stopped in for a drink, not the friendliest staff behind the bar. Then was told cash only when paying for drinks. Bartender didn't tell us in advance.........who doesn't take credit cards at this point in business? We were going to move forward with the location, but the negative attitude and cash only environment made us decided we will be taking our business and hosting our party elsewhere - this place lost out on having our 30 employees enjoy their space. We won't be back..... read more

You had me at Whiskey Row. Matt's is a fun place, with horse race betting and great bartenders. The one we had was hilarious, fast and just good at what she does. We all had beer or vodka drinks and played a couple horse races. Won(ish) two of four. It was just a great experience. Another super old bar that was very cool to be in. read more

If you find yourself on Whiskey Row and don't stop at Matt's Saloon, you're missing a Prescott classic. This place has the best kind of Western grit, loud, lively, and dripping with character. From the sawdust floors to the honky-tonk tunes and cowboy hats actually worn by "real"cowboys, the vibe is as authentic as it gets. Honestly, it might just be my favorite bar on Whiskey Row. Cold drinks, a dance floor that doesn't sleep, and a no-nonsense, all-fun energy that's hard to beat. Just a heads-up, it's cash only, so come prepared or you'll be sipping water while your friend's two-step. Fun fact: Matt's was recreated for the movie Only the Brave, though Hollywood took some liberties. The film version didn't exactly nail the layout or its true spot on the Row, and the inside? Not quite the same magic. Still, cool to see it get a little silver screen spotlight. If you're looking for real Western charm, good music, and a bar that doesn't pretend to be anything it's not--Matt's is your place. read more

Fun old school vibe! Cash only, good music and a fun place to hang. Play pole in the back or hang out and watch sports at the bar. Welcoming for all! read more

On famous Whiskey Row and typically very crowded. Fun crowd. They often have karaoke and dancing. My low rating is the service and the very rude bartender in the Cowboy hat. A complete douche. Get better staff and I will improve my rating. read more

I always love coming to Matt saloon. Great bar with live music always. They don't serve any food, but you're more than welcome to grab food at one of the local places close by and bring it in. The bar service is excellent. The back bar bartender she is one of the best remembers you. All the staff always remembers you no matter if it's front bar back door, which is great in which I really like about a place the ambience the whole place is great live music. Is that a respectable volume there's always dancing on a lot of talking going on a whole lot going on and it's a well worth place and visit. read more

My girlfriend and I stopped into Matt's Saloon and were lucky enough to be taken care of by Sierra behind the bar. She was absolutely amazing -- super friendly, cute, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. She really went out of her way to make sure we had a great time. It's not every day you come across a bartender who can make you feel like a regular on your first visit, but Sierra nailed it. We'll definitely be back, and when we do, we'll be hoping Sierra's working. She's the kind of bartender who makes a good night into a great one! read more

The female bartender was very rude and disrespectful I was waiting for almost 10 just for my first drink

This is not the place to take your family to eat or dance. This is a rugged, salt of the earth, good ol bar. It's a blast to bet on the horses, and I would not recommend asking for any type of cocktail that is not straight up liquor. They make anything either ingredients. But it was one of our favorite stops because of the vibe read more

Such a disappointment... asked for an old fashion and the bartender said "we don't do old fashions." At first I thought he was joking ! Nope no joke. He said we don't have the ingredients for an old fashions. Omg is this a bar on Whiskey Row? Whaaaa read more

If you know you know .. Matt's is a chill vibe bar , like most of the whiskey row bars , it holds up to that old western cowboy vibes , tastefully decorated with fantastic memories abd memorbilia. Sit at the bar or a table either way be prepared to be in a chill environment , fun environment or even better kareoke ! The bar is clean , open and tyr staff is extremely helpful, kind and professional! Even if you are the outsider coming in , they treat as if your just one of the regulars . Love it!

Had a blast at Matt's last night. Sandi and Dalton were awesome. Friend and I went and omg not going to lie I'm glad I wasn't driving. Crowd was fun and they had karaoke which is always entertaining read more

Dalton is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! Great bartending, great customer service, definite spot to hit in Prescott!!!

Matt's is a must if you're in Prescott. We have made Prescott one of our annual runs. Matt's is our goto watering hole. Karaoke on Wednesday is awesome. Our last trip we had Taylor as our bartender. Beauty, brains and a voice to die for! She was attentive and never missed a beat even when singing. Last night we had Sierra. Another amazing bartender. Beauty, sass and personality! We've been to many of the spots on whiskey row and always come back to Matt's! They've got a pretty decent bourbon selection and interact with customers making for a fun time. read more

We come to Matt's several times a year and always have a great time. Bartenders are friendly and they usually have some great live music going. If you want a table, I recommend coming early as the place tends to fill up on the weekends. Also be prepared with cash as they do not take card. There is an ATM available. read more

Awesome saloon. Bartenders and staff are friendly. Saloon has a historic feel and I love their decor. Cash only. I wish they served Dragoon beer and Prescott Brewing Co beer. Maybe they do but didn't have it during the time I was there. I really enjoyed the country music they were playing. Overall good experience. Highly recommended. read more

A fun country bar in Prescott AZ. We always have fun here. The live bands are great, lots of country line dancing, strong drinks & even karaoke sometimes. We went there on Super Bowl Sunday & they had a buffet set up with tons of free food; it was awesome. The staff including security are always friendly too. Weekends are fun because it's packed full of country line dancers having a great time dancing. Such a fun place. read more

They have music and a pool table. Cool. But the big bartender guy seems to charge whatever he wants for drinks. Not cool. The tall girl on Wednesday nights is a class act though. read more

went in with family was full of men the bartender didn't get her name she had highlights she looked at me asked for my id no problem i gave it to her she seen it had attitude I sat down went to order then she started being rude to my family members so we just up and left she was very very rude and confrontational about nothing.. headed a little ways down found a better bar with better service and friendly. read more

Was hanging out in Prescott and wanted a beer.. wife and I walked in and was stunned by the beautiful decor. The Christmas decorations were wonderful. Loved the old ceiling. We were there on a Tuesday so wasn't expecting any crowds. The lady serving was a sweetheart! Beer was $4.00 for a bottle of Mic. The guy at the end of the bar with the dog was very nice as well. My only complaint is it's cash only and I won't drink in a cash only bar.. read more

If I could give ONE star, I would. My friends and I went for a bachelorette party last year. We started dancing, having our things in the middle of us. A woman walked right up, picking up my coat and started to walk away. I stopped her, telling her it was my coat. She went on to say that her family owned the bar! WTF!? Found out she had rudely nudged one of my friends while trying to get drinks, pushing my other friend while walking past her. I ended up telling her, as she was talking about me to another woman, that I tried to be nice and she's lucky I didn't call the cops. NEVER WILL ME OR MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS ENTER THIS ESTABLISHMENT AGAIN!!! My husband went with family to visit a friend. His friend told him they hate the place because of how they're treated. Plenty of other bars, restaurants in that area. JJ's Smiles on Tap is about 1/2 a mile away, right around the corner. Friendly people, bartenders; and no one tries to steal your things. read more

Matt saloon is God awful. The security guards are absolutely delusional and there's nothing you can do to teach them common sense. They lack a brain cell that any bar has. It's absolutely god awful and everybody that works there is childish and immature. They have no idea what a good time is and it's super devastating. they kicked us out because they said we were acting insane but instead we were joking around and dancing with our friends. They are ridiculous and bored out of their mind that they try to ruin everybody else's night. When we asked for the manager they said nobody was the manager of that place and they denied us the common decency of the truth. read more

Impressive amount of beverage selections with reasonable pricing, historic western atmosphere, great music, and as much dancing as you wish!

Best Karaoke System and Nice Bar It's rare to find a good place for karaoke that actually has good sound! Matt's has their own sound system so it's wired into the pro audio system and not just some cheap speakers from a karaoke guy. The only spot I know in Prescott that does karaoke in Sunday's too which is cool! Not sure which other days they have it. The karaoke DJ is a friendly guy who does a good job of sorting through the masses of people. The bartender girl did a great job of trying to manage the whole packed place seemingly all by herself! I was surprised she seemed to be the only bartender with a couple hundred people on location... They have a pool table in back also if you are so inclined. There used to be an upstairs bar where the karaoke competitions used to be but it appears to be all closed down now. All in all this is a good spot I have been coming for about 17 years or so now... Man that makes me sound old! read more
