Monkey Bar

Monkey Bar is the kind of place you end up calling your spot. They have Dragoon IPA on tap, which is my favorite beer and one of the best West Coast IPAs in the country in my opinion. It's brewed right here in Tucson, so grabbing one means I’m supporting two local businesses at once. The vibe is exactly what I want in a bar. It has that welcoming neighborhood feel where everyone gets treated like they belong. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and when the owners are around, they’re just as approachable and easy to talk to. No attitude, no weird bar politics, just good people. Happy hour prices are solid, and you’re welcome to bring your own food, which is a rare and underrated perk. If you’re looking for a place with great beer, a relaxed atmosphere, and people who make you feel at home, Monkey Bar nails it.

So yeah I just got reamed out by Theo the bartender for not buying 2 drinks for a tournament that I didn't even win. I've spent hundreds of dollars in this place as a local and for the one day I only had one beer , I get persecuted. $1.00 tip extra is what you would of got so ( was it worth it theo?) Now you hurt the tournament operator because a bunch more people who you acted out violently in front of will never show up again. I want to mention that Hugh is an awesome bartender so whenever he is working I would show up but his brother is bad news. Really sucks for the owner to put up with this.

Ducky had a great time 47%boxer. 44%Boston. Staff and patrons are great

We did not contribute to the mirror of kisses by the bathroom. Came here for the first time over the weekend. We asked the bartender (who was sooo fine btw) to surprise us & she made us a big Red Bull drink with duckies in them. It was so good. The DJ was playing so many good songs to turn up to. The patio had loud music as well & the Prince mural was awesome across the street. There is places to sit down if you don’t wanna stand or dance the whole time.

Best dive bar in town! Love the vibe and bartenders, great karaoke spot too!

Go to bar people are nice great specials on certain days place out back to smoke after drinks great place I love it here

I have been supporting this bar for years. Went in for my 30th bday the other night, was targeted by the owners shoulder checked my the husband, followed out by "regulars" who were twice my age trying to swing on me. There was an infant baby sitting at the bar with music blasting. Absolutely horrible environment, not safe, and smells like a bathroom constantly. Do not go here!

Awesome little bar... Just what your looking for in a home town bar.. always know the bartender and the regulars. Just what you need on a familiar night out..
