Luke MooneyNovember 15, 2013By far, my favorite dark little bar in AZ. Cheap drinks and great live, local music with a very relaxed atmosphere. The bartender is an expert at pouring Guiness. $2 PBR doesn't hurt either.
Mary is the best! Opens early, comfortable dive bar to nurse a hangover in. Kim chi Bulgogi tots ate a must!- Phoenix New TimesJuly 1, 2013The bar features many local & national craft breweries in bottle & on tap, along with a fine selection of whiskeys & the kitchen serves unique bar fare such as bacon waffles & an eggs benedict burger.

- Phoenix New TimesSeptember 26, 2013They've done it again! Yucca Tap Room won 3 Best Of Phoenix awards this year, including Best Hangover Breakfast! Don't miss the tasty treats they'll be serving up at Best Of Phoenix A'fare on Oct 5th. Read more
- Phoenix New TimesJanuary 14, 20132012 Best of Phoenix Winner: Best Rock Club! Some of the best garage, power pop, punk & metal acts in town, from touring stars like The Ataris to showcases from local stunners like Earthmen. Read more
Great Bloody Mary's, craft beers , Tequila & Whiskey selection. Also serves locals Arizona Distilling Co.''s gin & bourbon. Ask for it.
Kenzie PembertonNovember 17, 2013Although it's more of a dive bar, it has some awesome qualities. Thursday night is throw back night and they play super old films and DJ on recorders. It's sweet!
Although primarily considered a music venue, the food here is worth coming for alone. Street style bar food with a Korean fusion. Yeah.
Joseph GarciaFebruary 6, 2015Chill little hipster joint with 2 rooms and 2 bars. Didn't stay long enough to witness the live music but I'm sure it is awesome lol
THEY HAVE A NEW MENU! And it's not just pizza. I tried the wings and cheese sticks. Not bad. They have alot more selections now. Basic bar food but salads and soups too! Yay!
Best local Tempe bar to see a show at! Example, Future Loves Past. #FLP
Paul HeadleyNovember 24, 2015Come for the solid beer list, stay for the cozy dark atmosphere and legit local art for sale in the wall.
This place rocks! ZERO attitude whatsoever, if you want to drink and know that the guy next to you probably has done some hard time. This is the place. ;) Not for the faint of heart.
Tempe TourismFebruary 14, 2011Always a good crowd, always a cold beer and always great music. Yucca Tap Room is the perfect place to unwind with friends and listen to some of the hottest local bands!
Bonita TequilaAugust 31, 2012Bonita Tequila is now available at Yucca Tap Room. If you’re in the mood for something different Yucca now offers the world's finest tequila.
Morgan ChanFebruary 15, 2013The best combination of bar and music venue I've seen locally. Great place to kick it and support local music.- Abdul HakkimDecember 31, 2013Tap Room boasts an impressive selection of craft beers and micro-distilled spirits from around the country. - © 2013 BuzzFeed, Inc
- One of the last good venues for live music in Tempe. No cover and great food.
I forgot how much I dislike the DJ set up when trying to find a place to chill between bands. Need earplugs in both sides of the Yucca.
Megan MooreApril 11, 2011Very good when they have live music. Every other time is very boring! If you are into dive bars this would be the place for you!
Great place to hang, although it's a little loud sometimes...
Great open mic, but get there early (7pm) to make the list. It fills up fast & they don't let just anyone call in for their spot.
James MulhernOctober 31, 2010If you're here to see live music, please buy your drinks on the venue side! It's the only way the bands get paid. :D
Come listen to. Dj Pickster. Fsc. Phoenix best dj. New times. Nuff said!
- Whipped Cream Vodka, Orange Juice, Soda Water = Orange Julius. Be careful, they're delicious and sugary and easy to drink.
A bar for drinking. This ain't one of them fancy showin' off bars.
Come to valley fever even if you don't like country you'll love it.- Blunt Club every Thursday! 8 year hip hop weekly! DJs, live art and cheap drinks... and... FREE!
- A better orange julius is captain or sailor jerrys and orange juice. Much better than that pinnacle vodka shit
Tammy SanchezJune 5, 2011Or usual thursday spot! 2 dollar pbr for you beer drinkers..awesome bar staff!...
Topher MatthewsApril 20, 2010Show up for "Rockaoke" (Karaoke with a live band instead of a KJ) and order a PBR. Extra points if you participate!
No longer cash only. The new addition accepts credit cards and also serves food and has over 100 bottled beers. The old half is still cash only. An ATM is located in the bar.- It used to be great having two sides to the Yucca so you could get away from the bands and talk to friends if you wanted...now there are stupid dj's on the other side. Yuck.
The old side will take credit or debit now. Yucca tap room is growing as a bar!
The main room is typically chilly, so bring a sweater!

"Great spot to catch a concert because of the size. Not a bad seat in the house and the smaller atmosphere makes for some great shows. Sound is decent but don't miss your favorite act when they play."
John Spataro - 6.8
"Located five minutes from the ASU campus (right by the train tracks), this indoor/outdoor venue and bar always allows for people to spread out during live shows and has a great vibe!"
Phoenix New Times - 8.4
"Fun place to meet up with friends. Great beers. American comfort foods. Inexpensive. Bike friendly. Dog friendly patio. Cheers!"
