So it's been a couple of years since I wrote my last review, and I come here enough I figured it was time for a update.
Flanny's is still my goto neighborhood bar and grill. If I'm after a drink with a friend, dinner because I don't feel like cooking, or a growler fill of some craft beer. Flanny's is my first thought if I'm starting out at my house.
The food is consistently good, some minor tweaks to the menu over the last year or so seem to be perfect for the bar. The bar tenders have completely changed over from the names in my last review... you know what they are still awesome!
I think the thing that impresses me most about Flanny's is that on any given night you will see John and his wife working the floor with the servers helping to keep things going. And when they aren't helping John is almost always talking with the customers, if he doesn't know your name he will know your face and almost always come over and say "hi".
Since my last review Flanny's has gotten involved in events for the local craft beer scene between outdoor beer gardens for special events (no patio so they have block out part of the parking lot) and the consistently excellent "Third Thursday Tap Takeover" Flanny's is as close we get to a "Cheers" type experience in Phoenix IMO.
Do yourself a favor, call up a friend and have them meet you at Flanny's you won't be disappointed.
