We popped into the Valley Bar, while exploring phx celebrating our friends 1 year anniversary from her divorce...
This place was probably the coolest spot we encountered while in downtown phoenix - I mean it's in a basement ... literally underground! It felt like the kinda spot you may find in a big city like NY or LA.
It was a very chill vibe - there was no cover charge and its a bit hard to find if you don't know where you are going because the entrance is in the back of the building, they had a little game room area (was bummed that the pin ball machine wasn't working though), an area with a DJ spinning tunes and people bustin' moves on the dance floor, then there was a big bar lounges area were we found a table to sit at - we just relaxed and people watched for the most part.
The music was cool. The scene was cool ... Alright crowd. The drinks seemed reasonably priced and seemed to be of quality ingredients - tasted good.
It was so unique and SOOO super cool that I rated it a solid four stars - I've never seen anything quite like this place in a looooong time. It was fun to just lounge and hang out here ... If I find myself downtown again I would return, but at the same time I won't go out of my way to come here.
