Best Happy Hours in Phoenix

200+ bars and restaurants with happy hour deals across Phoenix, AZ.

Phoenix happy hours start early — 3 PM is the standard opening here, and spots like Blanco Cocina + Cantina open their $5 wells-and-drafts window at 2 PM, among the earliest in any major city. The 200+ participating bars cluster along the Central Avenue corridor and Uptown (Postino Central, 32 Shea), in downtown and Roosevelt Row (Blue Hound), and across Arcadia and the Camelback corridor, where patio seating and misters make afternoon deals a year-round institution. Arizona puts no special restrictions on advertising drink specials, so pricing is posted freely: $2-off drafts and wells lead the market, $6 house margaritas are a desert staple, and even hotel pool bars like Lylo Swim Club run weekday windows. Weekend happy hours are uncommon (about one bar in seven), so weekday afternoons are the play.
