I wanted to give them a five. I went to the bar and I asked if they had a menu and if I just picked a place to sit if someone would come by and the bartender assured me yes, so I said I'm gonna go sit by one of the fire pits and the bartenders like it's chilly. That's a good idea, and it probably took 10 minutes for someone to notice me because I'm not exactly invisible. I feel maybe because there were a lot of larger groups and there were like 3 to 4 servers I think working but at one point two servers were serving one large party of about eight people and I wonder if they just saw a single person and didn't think that the tip would be worth it??
When the server finally did come over she was really nice. I did mention I've been waiting a while, so I was hoping that I would get decent service. I had to ask for my check though, and my drink was empty and no one came and asked me if I wanted another one which is fine I didn't want one but it would've been nice if I had been offered.
The bar itself is beautiful. There's lots of places to sit. I went at about 7 o'clock 730 somewhere in there and I was able to easily find a place to sit. It was decorated for Christmas. There's lots of blue lighting and reflection pools and if I lived in Phoenix, this would be a spot I would regularly go to, even if it is a bit pricey. I think my cocktail was in the neighborhood of $22. I got a peach drink and it was very dry. It was not sweet and fruity like I was hoping I mean don't get me wrong-I drank the whole thing.
I also got the chocolate mousse dessert and it was very chocolatey and decadent. If you are a chocolate person, you will love this I was tired of it about halfway through, but I forced myself to eat most of it. Also, I'm not a huge chocolate person so if you like chocolate, you will be in love with this dessert it was so good.
I saw people wearing shorts and T-shirts and jeans I saw people dress to the nines so whatever you're wearing you'll fit in just fine here but it is an outside bar so make sure you bring a blanket or a sweatshirt because you might get chilly !
There's also another bar on the property called the Wright Bar. The tequila sunrise was invented here in the 1930s I went in there but after being at the spire bar the Wright bar was so disappointing. I didn't take any photos of it at all because it just was dim in comparison to the spire bar. I honestly wasn't even sure what part was part of the bar and where it ended it's a little bit of a weird area in that hotel. I think that's the only place they missed the mark.
If the service had been better, I would've given a five, ambience off the charts, delicious dessert, drink was okay, but that was a personal preference on my part.
