Food and Drink Nearby
Scroll down for a quick look at where each of these places are on the map.
Four Peaks Scottsdale Grill & Tap
You can see Four Peaks (the iconic mountains on the horizon to the east) from the course, then you can go have a beer at Four Peaks Scottsdale Grill & Tap. Match the FREE Admission to the Phoenix Open on Monday or Tuesday with Four Peaks’ happy hour food and drink deals from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on those days (and every other weekday).
You can enjoy treats like their Chicken Bombs (pepperoni, chicken, and pickled jalapeno croquettes with pico de gallo and cilantro lime ranch – almost like little golf balls) for just $7. They also have $4 pints and $5 glasses of wine. Here’s the rest of the happy hour menu.
Uncorked Wine Lounge & Eatery
Uncorked is a friendly, unpretentious wine bar, if the beer scene isn’t for you. Monday from 3:30 p.m. to close they have 1/2 price flights and glasses of wine. Visit them on Taco Tuesday from 3:30 p.m. to close for another great deal, with $7 Margaritas and Mules.
Check out their food menu for delicious pairings, and don’t be afraid to ask for a recommendation. Also, they have great happy hour deals other days of the week, if you’re in the area – see them here.
O.H.S.O. Brewery + Distillery
Enjoying the weather too much to go inside after the event? Try the patio at O.H.S.O. at their North Scottsdale location. They’re bike and dog-friendly, plus they have 36 beers on tap, 24 wines by the glass, and several signature cocktails. There’s a nice long happy hour, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday (and the rest of the week, too).
If you’re springing for the weekend ticket, you can also try their Beer Brunch. It’s on Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Skeptical Chymist Irish Restaurant & Bar
If all the sunshine and fresh air is just a bit much for you, you might prefer one of my favorites, Skeptical Chymist. (It’s a little hard to find, but it’s tucked in a corner next to Rubio’s. It’s worth looking.) There are great food deals on the schedule. For instance, $6 hamburgers on Monday, and $9 Irish Nachos (potatoes instead of chips – it’s amazing) on Tuesdays. Tuesday is also the day for $4.50 Smithwick’s, Harp, and Guinness Blonde pints.
Their usual happy hour is weekdays from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. and includes $4.00 domestic bottles and $5.00 well drinks. Also, see the rest of the food and drink deals here.
