The Best Bars in Phoenix, Arizona | Eater Phoenix

"Longtime wine pros Pat Jasmin and Chris French have opened a quirky rock and roll-themed wine bar and bottle shop that’s light years from the pretentious wine bars of 20 years ago. Besides the velvet Elvis painting and Marge and Homer Simpson Pez dispensers, you’ll find 325-350 carefully curated bottles racked on the walls, more than 30 affordably priced wines by the glass on the menu, and a global list that favors independent producers and zero-intervention wines. Refrigerated cases are stocked with more than 60 craft beers as well, while a short food menu offers snacks and themed small plates, including Sympathy for the deviled eggs, Keep Mo-Rockin’ in the Free World meatballs and a savory slab of cheesecake, drizzled with lavender honey. Ask nicely and they’ll spin some vinyl from French’s vast rock and roll collection." - Nikki Buchanan
