Brews and views: Thrillist names the Phoenix area’s best rooftop bars

Finally, it’s fall. Thankfully, it’s cooling off in the Valley.

That only means one thing: It’s time to sit out, enjoy a view, relax and grab a drink.

If you’re looking for a place to do just that, Thrillist put together a list of the best rooftop bars in the Phoenix area. And there are options whether you’re in Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale and beyond.

Downtown Phoenix boasts Bar Smith and Lustre. Not far up the road is the Sky Deck bar at the Clarendon Hotel. In Tempe, hit up Tapacubo and C.A.S.A. to get an ice-cold drink to enjoy with a view.

There are plenty of rooftop lounges in Scottsdale, starting at the W Hotel’s Shade and closing out with Casablanca Lounge and Second Story Liquor Bar.

And in the East Valley, check out the Perch in downtown Chandler or the Rooftop Terrace at Topgolf in Gilbert.
