Everything about this bar is about 2 stars for me,but I gave an extra star to the fact that they don't charge a cover for the live music. In summary, the Yucca Tap Room is just another dive bar that caters to a mix of locals and hipsters. I never really cared much for this place (probably because a lot of the time I was surrounded by what seemed like the cream of the Tempe music scene's most mediocre crop), but at least there's a place for these types of things.
The bar isn't the greatest--had a night when I got two of the same drink for me and a friend and they tasted entirely different. Came back a few weeks later and pretty much the same thing happened. The prices are pretty good though, so it keeps people coming. Sticky floors, sticky tables, sticky booths...I wouldn't mind these at all, if my friend didn't almost sit on a used hypodermic needle...I agree with Bonnie G's statement: "Yucky Tap Room" indeed. I mean, who gets bitten by fleas inside a bar??
