Nathan made us the best cocktails and gave us great recommendations for food. I forgot to take pictures because we devoured everything so fast. The Thai wings were TO LIVE FOR and the pollo tacos were something from heaven read more

Liquor Pig knows exactly what it is--and it's definitely a bar that happens to serve food, not the other way around. If you don't drink, this probably isn't your spot. The menus alone tell the whole story: the drink menu is a fully bound booklet, while the food menu looks like it came straight off the office copier. Priorities, right? The vibe leans heavily Gen Z... and Gen Z-adjacent. If you enjoy loud energy and a crowd that treats every outing like content creation, you'll feel right at home. The space is small and gets crowded fast, so don't expect a quiet night out. That said, the taco board is surprisingly solid--and honestly, not a bad way to spend $90 if you're already there for the drinks and the atmosphere. It fits the place: fun, shareable, and made for a group that's there to hang out more than dine. Overall, Liquor Pig is great if you're going for drinks, vibes, and a youthful crowd. If you're going for a meal-first experience, you might want to look elsewhere. read more

Came in with my husband while we were in town for his work trip and ended up here purely because the vibes pulled us in. So glad they did. The cocktails are creative and thoughtfully made, and the bartenders were incredibly attentive. A fun, energetic spot with genuinely great drinks--we came back the next night and would absolutely come back next time we're in Scottsdale. read more

We went for a date night another couple! Inside was a bit loud, but nice decor and dark color tones. Our server was pleasant and had good suggestions. The Korean Bread and Taco Board were amazing and well with the price. Will go back and try other menu offerings! read more

I feel like I've been to enough bars to know when a place has good energy, and this spot definitely did.

This little bar was such a bonus find in Scottsdale. This was a warm wooden enclave that just spoke speakeasy. As we walked in, the cool music, dim lighting and rustic vibe was just so enticing. We sat at the bar and were duly well taken care of by the super friendly and attentive bartenders well versed in their craft. I absolutely love that their menu puts it all out there and notes that "each drink is crafted with intention and we are always excited to share our techniques, secrets, and stories of the drinks and the spirits that reside within them." The cocktails were quite literally TO DIE FOR... a feast of all the senses from the evocative menu descriptions, the well crafted and intentional presentation, to the welcoming off-beat flavor experience ... Our faves: Spam Folder - bourbon, tequila, cranberry, smoked jalapeno cordial, raspberry sage honey, and GOCHUJANG SPAM served in a Spam container... SHOWSTOPPER! Diamond Eyes - olive oil fat washed potato vodka, bleu cheese stuffed castelvetrano olives, house olive caper saline water cracker, creme fraiche and .... caviar .... MOVE OVER JAMES! Boule Sourdough - house cultured butter, seasonal preserves, maldon sea salt ... freshly made & classic. Perfect. The experience at this venue was beyond exceptional. Fun times with great staff, a wonderful ambiance, and exceptional food and drinks! We would make it on our hit list to revisit on another trip to Scottsdale.... Impressive. Highly recommended! read more

My friend and i decided to try a new to us spot. The Liquor Pig stood out with the menu options (taco board). There were so many cool options for cocktails as well. The Golden hour with tequila was a nice twist to a regular margarita with autumn spices and apple. The apple slices were a nice pallet cleanser during the meal. My friend is a sucker for a whiskey sour and the Amber Eclipse didn't disappoint. The Burrata was recommended my our server Alex, was so fun energetic and great with suggestions. The short rib meat was so tender that it melted in the mouth. The grilled toppings and pickled onions gave it a nice balance of flavors. Grilled avocado, the baked bean mix and sauces were great! The mustard sauce was the best one to me. The place is like a high end bar... intimate setting because of the low lighting on the table and above. A bit loud for table conversation. read more

Came on Valentines Day for a 10pm reservation. The lady at the door seemed really anxious. Maybe they're not used to being people coming in. But we sat at the bar. Nathan the bartender made fabulous espresso martinis. I ordered the chicken tacos which were really good. My partner had the short rib he said it was just okay. He said it had way too much flavor. I loved the vibe very sexy bar. Has a downtown vibe. read more

After watching some college football at Barstool Scottsdale, we were looking for a spot close by to grab a drink. I hopped on the trusty Yelp app and came across Liquor Pig. With a cool name like that, I was in. We walked over and were seated at the bar without a wait. Ambiance (4.5/5): Liquor Pig has a speakeasy ambiance without being a speakeasy. What I'm talking about is a dimly lit and elegant bar and restaurant. Not what I was expecting in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale. There are both tables, high tops, and some seats at the bar. Service (4.5/5): I always appreciate efficient, friendly, and attentive service. That's what I experienced at Liquor Pig. The bartender greeted us right when we arrived, brought us some water, and was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. We ended up having two cocktails each and he made some good recommendations. Solid in all respects. Food (N/A): I had dinner prior so I was on a liquid diet. I did take a peak at the menu and it's a nice fusion menu incorporating American, Asian, and Peruvian influences. The menu was so interesting that I remarked that I would have to return to try their food at some point. Drinks (5/5): Speakeasy-quality drinks. An interesting craft cocktail menu with a nice blend of different flavor profiles and ingredients. Each cocktail on the menu has a short description which I always appreciate. Both of my cocktails were well-made and creative. The kind of spot I would come back to again and again for the quality of their cocktails. While they're definitely a cocktail bar, they have a full bar if you're looking for something different. Parking can be tough in Old Town, but I found free parking on the street a few blocks away. If you circle around, you can find a spot. Or you can pay to park in a surface lot of parking garage. Can't wait to come back to try the food! read more

What a great dining experience for my best friend's bachelor party. We really loved the atmosphere and family style dining experience!

I really enjoyed coming to this place! We had reservations and were seated right away. The place is pretty cozy and the ambiance was great and not too loud. The cocktails were delicious and love the variety and creativity. The food was equally great and the favorites that night were the octopus, the pork belly tacos and the black cod. Great place for a gathering with friends or date night! read more

We wanted to try this restaurant because of the unusual name. The food was amazingly unique and delicious. The Gem lettuce salad was wonderful! Very yummy! We split that and then my husband ordered the duck bolognese pasta and it was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I ordered the Birria and it was superb! So yummy! We shared the blackberry cake with gelato for dessert. It was the perfect ending to the meal. The only drawback to the evening was the very uncomfortable seating. All the tables were high tops and the chairs were not comfortable and even unstable. Not for the older crowd. It would have been easy to fall out of the chair. And the air conditioning was on high--blasting cold air. We won't go back in the summer without jackets. read more

They hit a few high notes (ceviche, poutine) but other things were just okay (short rib taco board, thai inspired cod). What was dumbfounding is the kitchen service was nearly twice as fast as the bar so we had most of our food delivered before our first drinks. It seems like a drinks first place but they were crazy slow despite the bar being staffed well. So many other chef driven options it's hard to see why to return. read more

Wayward - Shirt rib taco - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

THIS LITTLE PIGGY This little piggy...Went to the Restaurant This little piggy...Did not Stay Home The dining room is small, so all the music, noise, and chatter did not disperse well in the enclosed space, therefore it was very loud to where I was yelling across the table to talk. Even the waiter did not hear me and put in my order wrong. There's plenty of boozy cocktails to choose from so you can drown yourself in liquor while you are drowned out from the background noise. If you are not a liquor swine, then wine may be more of your pigsty-le. They have quite the extensive list that would make you squeal in delight. This little piggy...Had beef short rib This little piggy... Had puns The SCHNITZEL showed up as a Lincoln log. It looked like someone took a SCHNITZEL on my plate. Their schnitzel was a very abstract rendition of a classic. The schnitzel itself was kind of dry but there was a whole grain mustard sauce with it adding a tangy and sour punch. With all the sides on the plate it added contrasting taste and texture. The flavors were... interesting... It was different. It was flavorful, but felt somewhat disconnected. Sorry to say, each bite didn't make me want to take another bite, except in hopes that I would get the full flavor in the next bite. SHAKSHOUKA was basically lamb meatballs in sauce, and tasted like... well... lamb balls. It would have been better if it wasn't in a pond of various sauces with the egg right in the middle of it all. The food was tasty but the composition was weird and maybe because of this plating, there wasn't real synergy with the dish, similar to the Schnitzel. Combined all together, the sauces ran together and overall didn't go well together. Alone, a couple of the sauces were good but there was one sour mustard-like sauce that shouldn't have been on the plate. But the bread was good to dip in the other sauces and eat with the meatballs. The potato in the dish seemed out of place, to be honest. SHORT RIB was not Short on flavor. Short rib is something that is hard to mess up and is a safe dish if you don't want to venture toward the other exotic offerings. The meat was tender and had savory glaze to it. The dish was simple but probably the best one that I tasted. These dishes were smaller than normal portions but bigger than tapas size dishes. So plan accordingly to your appetite. The food was pretty rich so I ended up drinking a lot of water. That being said... This little piggy...had to go pee pee peeeeeee all the way home read more

Highly recommend! Amazing service; from calling with questions, friendly staff, getting every party seated quickly, knowledge about the menu, and checking in throughout your stay! The ambiance is very pleasant with a cute luxury bar theme but it was a little loud (that means people are having a good time). The menu was so much fun, everything on there was a win. You can tell the chef pours their heart and soul into the food. Our lovely waitress Alex, said the burrata was fire and boy was she right! We also got the taco board, that is a must if you're dining with people who love to eat. It was just two of us dining and we ended up taking a small portion of the meat home ; as it says it serves 2-4 people. The drinks....mouthwatering good and a strong portion that is well balanced. There were so many options to choose from and they are all so delicious. Couldn't recommend this place enough. A gem read more

Overall a really cute new spot in Scottsdale. I think the cocktail menu is great with options both familiar and more unique. I tried the Natural Born Artist and really enjoyed the flavors. As for the food, I don't think I'm the target audience here. I can appreciate it for what it is and the thought behind each dish but it did end up being fairly pricy for not a lot of food when split between two people to share (which was the recommendation). The Tom Kha Gai is a scallop crudo dish but the Thai flavors were a little bit mild for my taste. The pork belly was tasty but just so small. Our favorite was by far the chicken Marsala but it definitely left us wanting more. I do think Liquor Pig is an interesting and creative addition to Scottsdale and would definitely return to try more of the cocktails. read more

Very intimate and cozy spot. All food items are tapas style so small portion sizes meant for the table to order a couple of items and share. We ordered the Liquor Pig bread for the table which came out nice and warm and was served with this amazing miso butter. I ordered the Chicken Marsala and Indigo Evening cocktail. This Chicken Marsala is not your typical chicken Marsala dish. It came out looking like a piece of artwork on a plate with what appeared to be ravioli style pasta with chicken underneath and also meat inside.It was sooo delicious and flavorful. While my drink was more refreshing than sweet (what I prefer), I still enjoyed it.. I highly recommend making reservations if you plan to come here due to it being a small space. This is a culinary experience! read more

Stopped by Liquor Pig to check it out. The interior was well done and cozy. It has a very different feel than other bars in Old Town Scottsdale. The service was fantastic and the bartenders were helpful in navigating their menu. I felt they had a short list of cocktails to choose from compared to other cocktail bars. Everyone enjoyed their drinks but I did think they were pricey compared to some other places in the Valley. I would most likely not go back unless a friend really wanted me to. If I want to get a good cocktail with outstanding service, you'll find me at Highball. read more

What an awesome place to grab a drink in Scottsdale. Liquor Pig is located in a beautiful space with a fancy bar, nice indoor seating, and a patio. There is even a bar level area that is split between the outside and inside. The drinks are next level here. I didn't snap a picture of it but my stepdad got the special Spam Folder. It was crazy to see a drink served in a Spam container with a piece of Spam inside. He said it was pretty strong. I tried the Sweet Sensations, a cookies and cream inspired drink. It was recommended by our waiter and was truly amazing. We also tried the Spring Fairytale which is a take on a Pisco Sour. This is another great option. I want to come back here to try some of the other drinks on the menu. Liquor Pig was a great place to grab drinks before dinner and one we will surely visit again. read more

What a marvelous time. The bartender that assisted us was so friendly and eager to ensure we received exactly what suited us for cocktails. We had three drinks, and they all came out with a beautiful presentation. It was very apparent he heard us and made exactly the flavor profile we were looking for. The ambiance is lovely in here. I enjoyed the leather-bound menu as well, as a personal touch. read more

This place was recommended to me and I'm so glad it was. The staff are so lovely and the vibes are great. My aviation was perfect and my partner enjoy his cocktail from their menu. We first came on at Saturday when they have their late night food menu. OBSESSED WITH THE THAI WINGS!! So much so that we literally came back a few nights later to try their buffalo ones, only to find out they don't have the late night menu all the time. I heard they might add the wings to their happy hr menu so I'm definitely looking forward to that!! Good cocktails, good food, good time! read more

Birthday dinner and their Grand Opening! It's in a great location, just a little hard to find as their lighted signage wasn't up yet. The service was exceptional and our server Jacob killed it. The owner Scott introduced himself and has been in the industry for quite a while. I also met the Bar Lead Chris who crafts some pretty amazing cocktails and YES that was a piece of spam in my drink. All of the food was pretty good and presentation was on point. Make sure to really read the menu and ask your server to explain the dishes as they aren't 'traditional' by any means. It's a cool spot for a cocktail and some taps to share. I'm looking forward to going back.. read more

Was thrilled to learn of this new cocktail bar seemingly hidden off a busy area of Scottsdale road. We were greeted with friendly staff, sleek decor and amazing drinks (didn't eat this go round but we did get a sneak bite of one of the desserts and WOW). Drinks are creative and well crafted and the bar staff super knowledgeable for on and off menu options. I'm excited to have a higher end cocktail bar option on that side of town and can't wait to go back. read more

So impressed by this addition to Scottsdale... the name might have fooled me into thinking it's an Old Town dive bar but it's anything but. The space is cozy and inviting - lighting and acoustics just right. The bar is calling you to saddle up and the high top tables are perfect for date night, a business meeting, or an outing with friends. The menu is so creative while very approachable and the food absolutely delicious - I can't wait to go back to try more dishes. The lobster pasta and elote were mouthwatering. They change the menu frequently so you'll never run out of new things to try. The best part.. NO SEED OILS used at all. I'm also normally not much of a cocktail person but theirs are top shelf. Liquor Pig has a well curated wine list and they serve clean artisnal liqours as well - I tried an espresso martini with Kokomo Tahitan Vanilla Rum and I'm still thinking about it! I chatted with the owner a bit and found out the culinary and mixology talent has roots in NYC's famous Daniel, Michael Mina and Cafe Monarch. If that's not a winning combination, I don't know what is. Liquor Pig is definitely on its way to becoming a premier neighborhood favorite. read more

Cool, chill spot to grab a drink & hangout with friends. I like the lower lighting and the chill vibes, in comparison to some of the more busy bars in the area. Their drink menu is pretty unique & the service was excellent. I asked for a Cadillac margarita & I loved that they served the cognac as a shot for me to pour in. read more

The chefs interpretation of some classic dishes and some completely unique creations are worth the visit. The extensive and intricate cocktail menu will take several visits here to get through. And,we plan on returning several times. The atmosphere is intimate, yet connected at the same time. The service was seamless and unobtrusive. Perfect dining experience! read more

Wow wow wow. What a phenomenal experience. I had been showing my husband this cocktail menu for weeks and we finally decided to go for his birthday. Starting with the staff... Crispy, the bar manager , was an awesome host who made us feel like we'd all been friends for years. Chatted and laughed with us most of the night. Definitely made my husbands birthday feel special. Nathan, who was training, was just as welcoming and friendly! Onto the drinks... Literally best drinks we have ever had. So much thought was put into the menu and all of the drinks are definitely worth trying. Honorable mention to the Indigo Evening (make sure you ask about how this is made, super interesting!) & natural born artist. When we pulled up, I instantly got a "dive bar" or "hole in the wall" feeling as it doesn't look like much from the street BUT as soon as you step in, it's a whole different feel. Very clean & organized. Cute menu layout with detailed descriptions. Even the food was yummy, we had a pasta dish. All in all, we will definitely be back and will definitely be recommending this spot to everyone. read more

Girls birthday and wanted to try something new. It was good, the restaurant itself is nicely decorated and gives a good vibe. Definitely not a kids spot, has only high tables and nothing kid friendly on the menu. They have a lot of fun cocktails that I would loved to try but I'm on a espresso martini fix lately. Our drinks were good but again we didn't get too adventurous with them. The food was also good. We had looked at the menu before coming in and it had completely changed. Wish they had expressed that on their website that menu changes. So, we got an appetizer that was very flavorful. Then ordered the bone marrow dish. There was maybe two small little spoons of marrow and a lot of fries. The fries had a wonderful flavor but the dish was missing something. Maybe some kind of meat, shredded or something. Needed that protein, especially for the price. The lobster pasta was just ok. It was a little bland and the lobster was a little fishy, probably would skip the next time. The staff was excellent, our waiter knew the menu very well and could answer any questions. So, overall it was a nice visit and a nice addition to the area. We will definitely be back and try some new things. read more
