very poor customer service, and the manager is rude. Would not recommend this bar, go anywhere else and you'll have a better time

Poor service. Unfriendly staff who were very rude. Place was filthy. Tables were unclean and floor was sticky and gross. Bathroom was disgusting. I do not recommend. Parking lot is small. Worried and someone would back into my car and damage it. Avoid this place. read more

Definitely louder, so if you are not into that probably shouldn't go there. Great food, the nachos, wings, and protein bowl are all very good! And they have the best fish and chips!! They do a lot of bingo and trivia nights too read more

The Tav is always a great place to have a beer and unwind! It definitely has a dive bar feel but is always a good choice! They have great beer options and phenomenal wings!!! Seriously the wings are so good I forget to take a picture! They are also always well stocked in Lone Star beer! read more

The Tav - Lone star beer - Dive Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This is a divey little neighborhood bar and grill where locals meet to enjoy a bite to eat and a drink. The food is nothing fancy but is cooked nicely and made with fresh ingredients. My only complaint was that they make their BLAT (bacon, lettuce. Avocado and tomato) sandwhich on a roll. The bread was very fresh but I prefer a BLT on regular toasted bread. The drinks were OK and service was OK too. read more

apparently if you look young they won't even bother serving you, don't go here the bartenders are cunty!

Owner was very rude. I came in solo to just have a drink shoot pool and relax. I am on my cycle and had to fix myself in the bathroom and was accused of doing drugs. Woman owner too you would think she'd have some understanding. Was also harassed by customers as I was trying to just enjoy the company of my self and ofc they didn't get harassed. Really disappointed with the service of this place. Will not be coming back. I literally was on a FaceTime call for over an hour so idk why I was treated this way. Would give 0 stars if I could read more

We liked and frequented the Tav often, til the owner, she humiliated, dissed and was completely rude - yelling at a military veteran. He wasn't drunk and not harming anyone and we witnessed the entire episode. So disgraceful and disrespectful - we left and won't ever go back. read more

This is my favorite spot for singing songs playing darts and they even have a pool table packed in w plenty of space. The food is good every-time I've been here and the staff is friendly and tentative. read more

Great bar! Food is awesome and staff is very friendly. Karaoke nights are always so fun!

My Son and went here for lunch. We love it. The food and service were Great. We will definitely be back!!

Used to love this place, haven't been in months and there was a blonde bartender I've never seen. I ordered a mixed shot and this bartender said "this bitch" and rolled her eyes. Atleast walk away if you're gonna talk crap. So naturally we left her no tip and as we're walking out she wants to start talking crap. I use to vibe with all the bartenders but this one acts like she's too good for everyone. Truley ruined our time. read more

I agree with previous posters. I came in for the first time with somewhat limited expectations. I've been to a bunch of Phoenix "dive bars" and really none of them have fit the bill. This place is too clean and has somewhat updated furniture to truly be considered an actual dive bar but they have phenomenal food, service, and cheap drinks. The sign on the wall near the dart board helps add to the appeal to the place but it does seem to lack some personality. I'm glad it's a stand alone business and not like the majority of the strip mall bars we have. It's a smaller place but it wasn't too busy while I was there. read more

I wish they would have greeted us better, it's 7pm and we got kicked out for having a loud personality. we didn't even sit down at the bar and we got kicked out. I am so sorry, this bar is so fucking lazy and lonely and the bartenders are far from friendly read more

Finally came to check this place out. What a gem of a find! Taylor behind the bar is awesome. She is friendly, attentive and actually seems to care about her guests!! My husband and I have been looking for a friendly neighborhood bar and I am happy to say we have found it. I am excited about this place and can't wait to come back. I see this becoming our new go to spot and I'm definitely OK with that! The food is also fantastic! We had onion rings, sliders and tots!! Doooooo it!! Soooooooooo yummy! Thanks Taylor we will def see you soon! read more

We had an awesome time! Really liked the classic burger and sweet potato fries! Then played darts and pool. It was a great night. Absolutely recommend it! read more

Definitely was skeptical at first, but the Tav is such a great establishment! We've driven past many times and finally stopped in. Had we known how great the atmosphere was, we would have much sooner! Our amazing waitress, Summer, recommended the wings & they did not disappoint! We also had the carnitas green chile nachos & they were incredible as well! Super fresh & fast service! We will be back ! read more

I'll go with 3 stars because the food was AWESOME. Like truly really good and not to bad on price too. Service was.. good from our server. But the bar owner? Idk or maybe manager standing at the end of the bar talking about puking and making gagging noises talking about old stories and stuff. Dark ambiance little dive bar which i love about neighborhood bars but truly couldn't finish my meal because of the puke gagging noises and talking about the consistency of there throw up from past weekends. Food: 8.5/10 Service: 9/10 Ambiance and conversation: -1/10 Oh forgot to add.. they were talking so loud that it was echoing in the small empty bar read more

Food and service was very good. I wish I could say the same for the drinks, margarita and Long Island iced tea were weak

Truly a locals bar. Fun hangout. I can see why this ticked away tavern has a full parking lot. Bloody Mary was on point! Plenty of great specials too. Personal experience so I had to knock off a couple of stars. Carnitas nachos....laid me out sick for 2 days. Love nachos, love carnitas, they were delicious. Sadly an intense reaction I've never experienced and will spar details read more

Great prices, great service and pretty good selection of drinks. The food options were good, service was great. Low key, laid back "dive bar" atmosphere, but in a friendly, welcoming way...not sketchy at all. read more

For a dive bar, great. As reviews state, super ono food. Great waitess who gets it!! Rare, in the biz. read more

Almost got into a fight with a random patron tonight. Three bartenders had to intervene. Will never be back again

Excellent service. Good drinks, cold beer. Very good grill food. Will go back again. Fun spot for good times.

Small bar with good drink specials. Plus side is the price. Honestly not bad for the area and I always felt safe going there. Not my first choice but if you're in the area, great spot to stop and get a drink. read more

Food is absolutely amazing! Honey Hot Wings!! Mmmmm!! Service is great and staff is friendly! Must give it a try if you haven't.

First time at Tav. Met a few guys for a bite and brews. Arrived at 5:30 PM on a Friday and it was 1/2 full. Tina greeted me after a while. The beer selection was very limited, unless she just didn't want to cover them all. There were standard pool tables, some video games and a few TV's around the place. Pretty dive-ey really but I didn't pick the place. I ordered a beer (on happy hour) and wings (no happy hour between 5-8 PM). Weird. The wings were not breaded, yay. They were not very tasty though, boo. They weren't really crisp and were way too over sauced, creating a quagmire in my tray. You can't replace good flavor with a lot of sauce. Tina had a bit of trouble keeping up with the orders and we had to seek her out twice just to get service, despite the owner coming to our table and chatting with us for quite a while. Not recommended at this time. read more

The BEST bar I ever been to, Karoke was so much fun, the food was AMAZING, onion rings were onion ringing, the server was amazing, I will be coming every Friday from now on. I'm drunk but I love it here it was amazing. Cheap drinks too, wow very cool shout out of my boyfriend for driving me home :) read more

If you're young and hot DONT GO HERE YOU WILL BE TREATED POORLY I have noticed a trend of the bartenders kicking out girls in their 20s for no reason or barely valid ones like being loud (read reviews below)! The first time I tried going here the bartender who was in my opinion drunk, messy hair, and was wearing someone's happy birthday sash kicked us out because she didn't like my friend ID. She's 22 had the brand new AZ ID and we did nothing except sit down. After refusing service they refused to give her ID back we called the police on them and as soon as we told them they made us stand outside like fully kicked us out while we waited for law enforcement to show up and afterwards were told not to come back at all! (As if we'd want to?!) When all we did was ask for a drink and present LEGAL IDs! Aka the bartenders don't like competition/ sharing attention of pretty girls in the bar because if you read the reviews it's always pretty girls getting kicked out for doing nothing not girls girls and a truly trashy establishment! (maybe it takes from their tips??!? Bc they kinda ugly in there) AGAIN If you're young and hot DONT GO HERE YOU WILL BE TREATED SO BAD This was the WORST experience I've ever had in a bar pls save your money and go literally anywhere else! Xoxoxo read more

We actually love the Tav, however we will never come back thanks to the cunty bar tender! She was UNBELIEVABLY rude to my friends and I as we walked inside the place. She immediately shouted at us to get out and that she was not going to service us. It was completely out of pocket. The cunty brown haired girl who acted like the manager! She's terrible never give her your money if you know what's good for you. read more

First time at the Tav. For starters, the ambiance is a throwback. I absolutely loved to feel of the place. We experienced exceptional service from our bartender. Also, the food was great. I had a cheesesteak sandwich. I'd never put Jalapeños on one before, but now my life has changed and I will alway do so from now on. I also threw down on some wings. They were pretty good. I topped off lunch with a Gin & Tonic, just because the atmosphere got to me. #DukeofEats read more

Good food, relaxed atmosphere...I'd definitely come back here and bring my Rider group.

Dark & cozy in the Deer Valley area, I remember this place as the Flight Line. It's on the flight path of Deer Valley airport. It's the nearest dive bar to the nearby industrial complex. Patrons are likely men or badass ladies like myself. The beer is cold, the food is hot. The crowd is friendly: today a tough bearded man playing pool with a kitten ring tone named Bandito. read more

I visited on a Sunday afternoon (NFL playoffs). It was recommended as a place to check out from a bartender at CAPS. Everyone I engaged with - bartenders and patrons - was great. I had no intention of eating there, but a regular convinced me to try the food, and I did. I got the French Dip to go, and was pleasantly surprised. It's not a huge sandwich, more bread than anything else, but for the price, quality and flavor, it was really good. Good spot to meet some locals (I'm not one). read more

This little dive bar is pretty ... well little. They have karaoke , pool tables , & dart boards! No patio seating! the reason for 3 stars was all the cig butts as i walked in. can someone get an ashtray for this eatablishment PLEASE ! its not welcoming to customers. Bartenders are nice! Drinks are fairly priced! read more

Great dive bar with great food, friendly service, great owner, and very reasonable prices. Never had bad food or bad service. Sit in the bar area or dining area with pool table and video golf. Specials every day of the week make the deals even better. read more

We stopped in Wednesday for a quick bite. We ordered the Chicken Philly with tots. Our bartender misunderstood so when we were brought a beef Philly I mentioned it and she was so apologetic and immediately wanted to make it right. I offered to just accept what was brought (no biggie, I just wanted chicken). She insisted we get what we ordered. I was concerned we were going to get so-so food and re-fried or microwaved tots. I'm very happy to report that it was a great lunch! Kudos to the staff for making it worth coming back again! read more

I really wanted to love this place, it's a local dive bar with trivia night on Thursdays, good bar selection, and decent food too. However, I've been there 4 times and here are my observations: first visit, the toilets were not functioning and rather than call in an emergency plumber they just let it be on a very busy Thursday night; second visit was good; third visit, AC was out in one half of the bar and it was hot as hell in there; and lastly, fourth visit, just 4 days after my third visit, the AC was still out, for a packed house on trivia Thursday there was ONE waitress and ONE bartender, and I wasn't once offered a food menu after waiting for over 15 minutes for the waitress' first visit to our table. Needless to say, yes, we left and took our business elsewhere I've worked in the restaurant/bar industry and get that it is a lot of work, but it's not hard to figure out your customers want timely service, properly working restrokms, and a bit of AC. read more
