| - She's a brick house .....
I F'n Love this place! First and foremost, it's downtown, anytime I can hang out in a place in Phoenix and see the city skyline, I am excited. Anytime I can be at a place and feel comfortable and cozy, I am excited. Anytime I can be in a place that is older than my Car (2003) I am excited. The Roosevelt is like a good friend's cool house, and really is just that! They have small rooms with tables, and chairs, and even a room with a dining room table. The bar area is very small, This is probably not the most entertaining place to go solo, as it's hard to chat up patrons when they are at their private tables. I think the mingling factor is low here, because it's setup like a house. However, It is completely quaint and charming, and is the perfect place for a date, or small group of friends to chill for a night. I am not sure, but I don't think they had any outdoor seating (I could be wrong) If they do, I bet it's nice. The beer selection is wide, and the prices are very good. They have an eclectic food menu consisting of Pub style choices, and snacks that compliment the beers they serve. They have a very extensive wine list, and have many international beers, as well as a variety of local brews. I had the Oatmeal Stout, and almost shed a tear when I took my first sip and felt a little bit of ice particles in the foam, it was perfectly chilled, and amazingly smooth.
All I know is this place is amazingly cool, and quite a unique place giving this is the Valley of the New. The crowd is mellow, and the service is fast and friendly. I went the Saturday after First Friday, which I was told by my waitress, is very busy (First Friday that is) She stated "you can't even walk around in here." However, "The Saturday after is usually pretty quiet." I arrived around 9:45pm, and stayed for an hour, and the place started to fill up quickly. One downside, they only have 1 unisex bathroom, which must be a nightmare when they are super busy. Besides that, the street parking is ample and the street is well lit. They had an on duty officer hanging out near the place, so I would be careful drinking and driving, besides being a friend cop, and keeping us protected, he is probably looking for people stumbling to their car, and could be the eyes for a patrol cars in the area. The cop actually came in and hug a couple patrons, and chatted them up. "Bad boys, Bad Boys, whacha gonna do, whacha gonna do when they come for you...."
