This review is actually for the bar that is above Porters, called The Post (which I'm sure are owned by the same person, and to get to the Post, you have to go through Porters security. The Post is more of a whiskey bar, specializing in rarer seen cocktails. Cool place. Above all the noise from downstairs, while still maintaining some ambiance. Very relaxed. Almost secretive, and the sign advertising this place isn't all that large. It's a sidewalk sign behind Porters' security. Once you upstairs via the exterior staircase it's starkly different. The bartender was even able to make a boulevardier, which not many places have the ingredients for, or don't know how to make it.

Just stumbled into this place while visiting Arizona. Tried the Bourbon Derby Smash and Lone Ranger... both amazing! The bartender was also friendly and I had a port by my seat at the bar to charge my phone. As a lone ranger (see what I did there) stopping by, it’s worth a visit. It’s also lowkey— bear in mind I stopped by Saturday afternoon.

very cool local watering hole! bartender so funny. only downside for me not a lot of draft beer

Cute, small, cozy place. My espresso martini was good and strong, but a bit sweet for me. But I liked the vibe here. It was super chill. The music was at a good volume and I would definitely return.

1 word: FUN. I’m a local & live nearby. Great drink pours. We love sitting at the window pointing at tourists. (Nuf said )

Well this place was awesome. It was super packed after the spring training game but was still able to get a drink quickly within a few minutes of walking in. Beth a blast from the past served us a few cocktails. Rooftop was awesome as well.

This bar was all decked out for Christmas. We went around 3 pm when the upstairs was also open. We went in the afternoon so it wasn't too busy. We had two holiday drinks that were great. It was fun..

The service and atmosphere was awesome. Great selection of bourbon and whiskey. Santa's old-fashioned .
