Silverton
Built for the same redneck crowd as the Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World next door, here you can keep plugging nickels and quarters into all of those full-pay video-poker and slot machines, just like the RV-drivin’ retirees who are camped at the RV park out back. Don’t miss the coin-op miniature bowling inside an Airstream trailer at the casino’s Shady Grove Lounge.

Godspeed
House of Blues’ exclusive club atop M-Bay hosts after-show parties in a luxurious lounge with gothic and Indian-temple decor. Celebs such as Andre Agassi hold court, while DJs and special events like Monday’s Godspeed enliven the vibe. Call in advance to get on the VIP guest list.

Davidson's Distillery
Yes, that's a vending machine with cigarettes and spare parts for Harley-Davidson motorcycles. As long as you come in with a live-and-let-live attitude you'll have a blast at this rocking locals bar with a heavy biker contingent. A tattoo and a Harley shop share the building, if you get inspired.

Orpheum Theatre
A splendid, restored movie house downtown used by highbrow touring shows and the symphony. It's chock-full of history; in the days when movie stars toured the cities their movies were playing in they'd often grab a soda in the now-defunct café (owned by this writer's grandparents).

Swizzle Inn
Swizzle in…stagger out, or so proclaims a sign on the door. The best dive bar in the state, it's set in a strip mall and used to cater to sisters of Sappho. Now, all types - from hipster to oldster - call it theirs until closing time.

Tempe Center for the Arts

Bikini Lounge
There are a few good places to drink in the artsy Roosevelt District but the Lounge is the king of divey-cool. Rusty pickups and BMWs share the small parking lot, and inside, bamboo and carved tiki totems rule the roost.

Red Rock Brewing Company
Can't make up your mind between the oats beer or the nut brown? Order a sampler flight and see what suits your fancy. The upscale pub grub inside this spacious former dairy building draws kudos too.

Flagstaff Brewing Company
A low-key place with a fun outdoorsy vibe, handcrafted brews, live music and lots of Scotch just a stumble away from downtown. The pub grub - pizza, burgers, soup and salads - is quite good.

Shooter's
It ain't easy being sleazy and this dark bar right across from the big casinos on Virginia St does it oh so well. No gambling and a heavy-metal jukebox seal the deal.

Barrio Brewery
Set near train tracks in an industrial part of town - whenever a freight train rolls by pints are $3 and this locomotive goodness is sometimes met with cheers. It's roomy inside with a long porch on the front, and the food (snacks $3 to $7) is two notches above usual bar fare.
