Palace Saloon

Arizona


Push open the swinging doors and time-warp to 19th-century Whiskey Row days, back when the Earp brothers would knock 'em back with Doc Holliday at the huge Brunswick Bar. A scene from the 1972 Steve McQueen movie Junior Bonner was filmed here, and a mural honoring the film covers an inside wall. Dinner shows include tribute bands and historical plays.
