Best Pool Food and Drink in Phoenix, Arizona | Eater Phoenix

"This mid-century modern hangout at the Rise Uptown Hotel executes cocktails at a level far beyond the usual pool bar. Bartenders utilize split bases to achieve complexity (the Dole Whipped uses two rums), artfully balance sweetness (the mojito has just enough), and spotlights spirits like mezcal and tequila rather than concealing them behind other ingredients. The pool feels intimate and secluded, an urban oasis. A thoughtful, Southwestern-forward food menu includes gems like barbacoa fries, corn ribs, and Arizona cheese crisps." - Chris Malloy
