| - I love this bar!
I'm fairly new to Phoenix and I was looking for a place where I could meet friendly people, have a few cocktails, dance, relax and just enjoy myself. I visited a few bars in the LGBT community and was struck by how cliquish and rude both the service and clientele could be.
A happy twist of fate brought me to Z Girl's Club back in late March and I couldn't be happier with my choice to make it my home away from home.
First off, it's clean, inside and out, bathrooms too. The owners and staff are conscientious and really do take pride in their presentation. Which is further demonstrated by their friendliness. They actually smile and welcome you when you come in. If you're new, they introduce you to regulars and help you get comfortable. They remember your drink of choice and how you like it prepared. They talk to you because they're genuinely interested in you.
It's safe. They have a great security system and staff. They exercise their right to keep troublemakers from entering and I've yet to see dyke drama get out of hand. That means a lot to me. And if I sense danger, I am welcomed to tell somebody and they'll check it out, watch out for me and the other customers. They'll also slow you down if you've had too much to be safe.
If you're looking for pretentiousness and snobbery, go to Scottsdale or Vegas. But if you're looking for a comfortable place to dance to great music, play pool, meet really interesting people and be served inexpensive drinks, try Z Girl's Club. The best part about it is that everyone is welcome to have a good time. Yes, it's a lesbian bar but they don't scowl at men or straight people. They don't underestimate you, don't underestimate them.
And as far as waiting 45 minutes for a drink... psssh. That's a load of bullshit. If you saw the bar, there's no way in hell you could wait that long for a drink, unless you weren't paying attention or were being a jackass. The bartenders and DJs are always on point. They hustle and flow to make the place jump and they're good at it.
