Scottsdale’s Best Bars
So you took our advice and booked the trip down to sunny Scottsdale with your golf buddies. You’re lined up to play at Troon North, Ak-Chin Southern Dunes, and Camelback just to start the weekend off. Between rounds you’re taking advantage of Scottsdale’s incredible outdoors and adventure scene— but something’s missing. What are you guys going to do come sunset? Well, nightlife means different things for every golfer in your group, so here’s an eclectic mix of Scottsdale’s Best Bars to please everyone on the trip.

Mastro’s Ocean Club and Steakhouse
Nothing compares to the dining experience at Mastro’s Ocean Club, where you’ll find the best seafood in town— but the Ocean Club Bar is what will keep you and the guys around all night. Enjoy the signature dry ice martini or choose from an overwhelming array of fine wines. The “O Club” is one of the best mingling scenes in the state, so if the trip is more business than pleasure you can’t miss at Mastro’s.
Twice as nice may be Mastro’s Steakhouse in North Scottsdale, a hotspot for MLB players come spring training. This upscale steakhouse won’t disappoint— from the prime cuts to the people watching. The “M Bar” offers up some of the best vodka cocktails around and the go-to post round spot.
The Onyx Bar and Lounge at the Four Seasons
You can’t take a golf trip to Scottsdale and not play Troon North— it just wouldn’t be right. Start your day off on one of the country’s most sought-after courses and stay right where you are for the remainder of the night. One of the best spots in all of Scottsdale to watch the sunset and relax is the pristine Onyx Bar and Lounge, which features live music every Saturday night and the perfect post-round happy hour from 4:00-6:00pm.
Scotch Library at Kierland Resort
With over 200 labels to choose from and tastings ranging from $10-$475 per two-ounce pour, the Scotch Library is a single-malt lover’s dream. Accompanied by Scotch Library Ambassadors, the state’s leading experts on the spirit, you’ll be taken on a guided journey of some of the best contributions early Scottish immigrants gave to the area. Looking for a more advanced experience? Plan your trip around Master Tastings on November 16th and December 14th.
