Let me be real with y’all — finding a good happy hour at a Black-owned spot in Phoenix? Not always easy. I’m not talking about those watered-down drinks and generic playlists either. I mean a place with flavor, a little edge, music you actually know, and prices that don’t make you second guess your order. That kind of happy hour.
I’ve been keeping my eyes open. Asking around. Sliding through when I can. And slowly but surely, I’ve been finding those hidden gems — the ones that actually give you something to look forward to after a long day. A $7 martini, a $4 well, a plate of something fried and seasoned just right. That’s the kind of energy I’m chasing.
So if you’ve been searching too, let me help you out. I’ve got five Black-owned spots — all right here in Phoenix — that are doing happy hour their way. Some laid back, some a little fancy, all of them worth showing up for.
Let’s get into it.
1. Spinroom PHX – $7 Martinis & Speakeasy Vibes
50 W Jefferson St STE 280, Phoenix, AZ 85003
Spinroom is tucked inside Stadium Sports Bar (literally—it’s like a speakeasy setup) and it’s such a vibe. If you’re into martinis, you’re in for a treat because they’ve got them for just $7 on:
- Thursdays from 5–7PM
- Saturdays 8–9PM
- Sundays 5–7PM
The space feels like the type of place you pregame at but end up staying the whole night because the DJ’s too good and the drinks are just hitting right. Chill crowd, dim lighting, and bartenders that don’t play with the pours.
2. Stadium Sports Bar & Lounge – Last Fridays Go Crazy
50 W Jefferson St STE 280, Phoenix, AZ 85003
Now if you’re into food and drink deals that feel like a full-on event, mark your calendar. Every last Friday of the month, Stadium Sports Bar & Lounge does happy hour right:
- $5 drinks until 7PM
- 50% off appetizers
- $7 martinis (if you missed Spinroom, you get another chance)
It’s giving grown, fun, and Blackity Black — perfect for linking with friends, networking, or dancing your stress away.
3. Pour Decisions – For the Day Drinkers & Brunch Crew
4209 N Craftsman Ct, Scottsdale, AZ 85251
If you like to get your happy hour started before the sun goes down (hello, day drinkers and flexible schedules), Pour Decisions is calling your name. Their specials run:
- Wednesday to Friday, 11AM – 6:30PM
- All day Sunday for the Sunday Funday crew
Here’s the lineup:
- $4 wells
- $5 non-domestic beers
- $6 wine & seltzers
- ½ off signature cocktails
It’s a choose-your-own-adventure kind of place, and the vibe is always cool and unpretentious. Big yes.
4. The Boom Boom Room – Craft Cocktails & Hibachi Energy
1544 E McDowell Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85006
Now this one right here is for the folks who want a little luxury with their happy hour. The Boom Boom Room is giving classy lounge meets bold flavors. From 6–10PM, they’ve got:
- $8 craft cocktails
- $12 hibachi plates (chicken or steak)
Whether you’re in the mood for something smooth to sip or looking to grub on something flavorful, this spot brings a vibe that feels upscale without the stiff energy. Music’s on point, lighting’s moody, and it’s a whole experience from entry to last call.
5. Momma’s Soul Fish & Chicken – A Little Soul, A Little Mystery
4906 E Main St, Mesa, AZ 85205
Okay, so Momma’s doesn’t list any official happy hour specials. No chalkboard deals, no flyers with $5 cocktails or two-for-ones. But hear me out — this spot still deserves a place on this list.
It’s giving, “Just pull up and let the vibes do what they do.” The kind of place where you might walk in for catfish and leave with a cocktail in your hand because the bartender’s cool like that. You never really know what you’re gonna get — and honestly, that’s part of the charm.
What you can count on? Crispy fried fish, juicy chicken, buttery cornbread, and sides that taste like somebody’s grandma is in the back kitchen running things. Whether it’s your first stop or your last, Momma’s is gonna feed you right and leave you full in more ways than one.
