    Great atmosphere, low key and very relaxing. Service was fast due to not being busy, if busy make sure you have patience, there will be a waiting time for service. The staff is wonderful and truly working hard and as fast as they can to please everyone. The food so far is great, I've had a burger, wings and just recently their Thursday special of surf and turf and everything has been great!

    I had a friend in from out of town and I was looking for a place for us to meet somewhere in the middle. I thought this was a different Irish bar had been two years ago so I told him to meet me there. As I got closer, I realized it was a new place. When I drove up, it almost looked closed but when you get into the back parking lot, it was completely full. This place is busy, busy busy! there is a jukebox that played an array of different music from country to rap to rock. The bar itself doesn't really have much of an Irish vibe so if that's what you're looking for this isn't the place. Maybe it's different on other nights. Our bartender was very attentive and consistently came to ask if we needed drinks or food. When she was busy, the other bartender came to check on us as well. So the service was A+. The menu was huge and had a lot of options. The prices were good and it seemed like you would get a lot of food with some of the bigger starters. I think we had five or six beers, two shots and wings/fries and our bill was somewhere around 50 bucks. Our food took a little while to come out, but considering how many people were there also ordering it didn't surprise me. The fries had a great seasoning on them and were very tasty. Would definitely recommend. They also had curly fry and sweet potato options. The wings were nice and crispy just like I like them and flavorful. It is a great dive bar if you're in this part of town and are looking for a place to go grab a drink and be social. The crowd overall was younger 20s-30s.

    The owner Lynn's response to my message

    I came to help out on St. Patrick's Day as security. I worked a 12 hour shift. After that 12 hour shift, one of their employees stole my bike. When I asked about it, they were no help to find it. I'm a little hurt I could help them maintain a safe environment all night, stopped people that were underage and too intoxicated SO THEIR BUSINESS WOULDN'T FAIL and they didn't help me in the slightest. Spend your money somewhere where they care for their people

    Mango Cart Beer with a Tajin Rim. Soooo good!

    (Regular since 2021) The owner is chill and the staff is sweet, The wings are the best! 10 wings for $5! I recommend the honey bbq! The side salad with grilled chicken is da bomb! The people are friendly as hell and the music is always great! cheap entry pool tournaments with big pay outs and its a one ball in game so also a fun and easy win! This is probably my second Favorite bar in Arizona! wish they did karaoke cause then I'd never leave! (The cook did get switched and they had one bad week on wing Tuesday but it has been fixed. 100% best bar food ever!)

    They have good WINGS bartenders are cool but expect to wait a long time for your food on weekends. A hour for 12 wings is crazy.

Unfortunately, compared to our first couple of visits, our experiences gradually started going downhill. I will absolutely give credit where it's due -- the drinks and craftsmanship here are excellent. The bartenders really know their craft, make great recommendations, and we've had some seriously amazing cocktails here. Unfortunately, on multiple visits we started to feel increasingly unwelcome. It's honestly difficult to explain because there wasn't necessarily one specific interaction I can point to, but there was a noticeable feeling that we just weren't wanted there. Whether it was certain interactions with staff or simply the overall energy around us, we both picked up on it more than once. I don't know if it was because we didn't necessarily fit the typical demographic or vibe of the crowd there, and I don't want to assume anyone's intentions. I can only speak to how we felt, and unfortunately, we repeatedly left feeling uncomfortable and out of place. It's genuinely such a shame because we loved this bar so much in the beginning. It has such a fun atmosphere, and the cocktails are fantastic. We have some really great memories from our earlier visits, but after feeling this way on multiple occasions, we've decided we won't be returning.

    I mean "dive bar" as an absolute compliment... let's start there…read more I had been eyeing Ain't Nick's for a while and finally worked up the gumption to wander in and check it out because I heard the magic words: karaoke every night. As a karaoke lover, obviously I had to investigate. First impression? Bigger and nicer inside than I expected! Two pool tables right when you walk in (and rumor has it they're only $1.25 a game... hello 90s, nice to see inflation apparently skipped pool ), plenty of seating, tables around the bar, and just a solid neighborhood bar setup. The bar itself was pretty full when I arrived, and the only open seat was directly in front of the taps (not exactly my chosen throne), so I figured I'd grab a table. Except before I even got that far, someone struck up a conversation: "First time here?" And somehow within minutes I had new friends. Him and his girl were genuinely the sweetest, and that turned into meeting even more people. The vibe was just easy... people actually talking to each other, introducing themselves, and being welcoming. The bartender was attentive and made a bomb Shirley Temple. One may have been approximately 73% grenadine, but honestly who doesn't need a full-blown sugar rush when karaoke is happening and the vibes are immaculate? The entertainment situation is also solid. Karaoke every night, trivia on at least one night (not sure which, but I'm told trivia kicks things off and then karaoke takes over), pool tables, and a patio area outside with games like giant Jenga, extra seating, and separate music playing. So if karaoke isn't your thing (who hurt you?) you can escape outside and still hang out. I didn't eat, but the food coming out looked GOOD. Not sad "we threw frozen stuff in a fryer and called it dinner" bar food, more like amped-up bar food. I also heard from multiple people that the food is legit, so clearly I need to investigate that next. Location-wise, it's probably an Uber spot for me and not somewhere I'm making a late-night solo trek home from, but I'm told Ubers are easy to grab. Overall? I walked in curious and left with my heart full. Good conversations, kind people, fun karaoke, and a way better night than I ever expected. I don't know if I'll become a regular, but when I get that urge to go "people out in the world," Ain't Nick's is officially on the list. My heart was tickled. And yes, that's the official rating system. Bonus points: I got carded, which as someone who is well past the legal drinking age but still approximately 14 years old at heart, absolutely made my night before it even started.

    Good cheap dive bar with good cheap food. The regulars are nice people and the bartenders remember…read moreyou. Can't beat it.

So here's the thing: I recently moved kinda sorta into the area, and my drinking buddy asked if we wanted to stay local or wander elsewhere. My gut said, "Not around here" and listen, my intuition is usually correct. But then he pulls up this list of "Best Dive Bars in Phoenix," and apparently this gem made the cut. We walk in and BOOM! Instant time-warp, for me. I'm talking back-in-the-day bar with my mom doing karaoke while everyone chain-smoked indoors like it was a personality trait and I wasn't legal to be in there... only back then, no one cared. They call the place a "patio," but let's be honest: if nicotine had a spiritual home, it would be right here. If you're a non-smoker or someone who believes oxygen should be unobstructed by Marlboro ghosts, turn around. This is not your ministry. The bartender was an absolute icon. She announced she wasn't even supposed to be working, which is EXACTLY the kind of energy a true dive bar requires. She was slammed, running around like she was bartending both the Super Bowl and a family reunion, so the drinks took a looong while... but when they came? Suddenly I understood life again. And the karaoke... let me tell you. I went in there ready to sing something from this century. The options, however, politely declined. This was old-school karaoke, baby. Like, the kind of setup where you half expect to write your song down on a napkin and hand it to a man named Chuck. No new music that I could find. No modern selections from my lists. If you want to sing something post-2005, bring a Bluetooth speaker and emotional support. And yet? I had so much fun. Like... stupid fun. Unexpected fun. "Why am I having a euphoric experience inhaling secondhand smoke in 2026?" fun. I didn't get to check out the bathroom, which honestly might be a blessing or a missed adventure.... unclear. But everything else? Chef's kiss. Friends french fries were fresh and hot... and actual potato as far as we could tell... double kiss. Dive-bar perfection. If you want sterile, curated, Instagrammable vibes: run. If you want to scream-laugh, smell like nostalgia and cigarettes for three days, and hear music older than some of the patrons? This place is your destiny. Will I be back? Absolutely. Probably with eyeliner smudged like a raccoon and ready to request karaoke songs that don't exist there.
