Kat's - Phoenix

Hidden gem alert! If you're looking for a cozy spot to grab drinks with some locals, this is the place for you. It’s free of frills and fuss—just a great neighborhood bar where you can relax and socialize. The woman managing the bar was kind enough to turn on the Suns game for us, which made our visit even better. My friends and I had a fantastic time enjoying drinks and chatting. Highly recommend!

I stumbled upon this gem by chance! It's a fantastic neighborhood bar with affordable drinks, a pool table, a pinball machine, and a jukebox. The bar is tidy and offers around a dozen seats. The atmosphere is lively, and the crowd is friendly. Phil, the bartender, is excellent! You should definitely give it a try!

There's something truly intriguing about a hidden gem of a bar that has garnered just a dozen reviews over the course of nearly a decade. I've driven past this intersection countless times without ever realizing it was there! Perhaps it's because the place is a bit worn, grimy, and has a somewhat sketchy vibe—almost to the point where you might feel like you need a tetanus shot after touching anything inside. Yet, there's a certain charm in its imperfections. Kat's features a pleasant patio, karaoke nights, and a welcoming neighborhood bar atmosphere. It's been around for quite a while and deserves to stick around because it isn't trying to be trendy like nearly every other spot within a five-mile radius. Just crack open a Budweiser and soak it all in.

Okay! ZERO. Enter at your own STD check. There is a super rad place across the street- Helton's . Kudos to the male bartender @Kat's) that was sober and seeing the errors of a lot of ways. Will check my bill tomorrow to confirm I was properly charged. Do not order water and a shot or you will be kicked out by the owner that is wasted at the end of the bar. Ah! She would rather take tips from her bartenders than potentially have to serve a water and make money on a shot. I wish I could understand the reasoning behind it. Stay positive friends! And I wish the most luck if you enter!

I love a good dive bar!! While the other people there were friendly, the one server was not, and she poured 2 of the worst drinks we've ever had. We ordered a Tito's and soda and Bacardi and Diet Coke- tasted like she put zero alcohol in them. We both took about 2 sips and left the full drinks. She didn't ask about our drinks and charged $10. There are too many really solid establishments in the area to do business that way.
