The Beverly

This is definitely my favorite place in Old Town to grab a cocktail and burrow for an evening of chatter with friends. While it may not be my favorite when it’s super busy (i.e. post-​10pm on a weekend) as drink times typically suffer quite a bit, it’s almost always a perfect experience any other time. Food, beverages, atmosphere — the Beverly does them all well and consistently to boot.
We recently held a rather large party here last Saturday evening from about 7 – 9:30, and we were taken care of much better than I had anticipated for a group of our size. We were able to mix up bar with table service which helped, but our waitress was so on top of everything that it made for a completely seamless night. Outside of an event like this, I usually sit at the bar and their bartenders are always cool. The Ahi sliders and deviled eggs are my favorites, but I recently tried the mac n cheese which was amazing! The Brussel Sprouts weren’t anything to write home about, a little greasy for my taste. I have historically loved the amazing cocktail list, but noticed it was pretty pared down on our last visit. That was somewhat disappointing, though our drinks were still very good.
The Beverly will definitely stay on the regular rotation, especially during the summer when tourists disappear and it’s a little more manageable to enjoy such a cool *local* spot. But I hope all those amazing cocktails return! Or at least are available by special request :)

This was a random Unilocal find for me. We were discussing where to go and since we recently moved from the Arcadia area, we decided to try more on this side of town. I found the great reviews and had to come.
The bar is really cool — very east coast and classic dark wood etc. We sat and chatted with the couples around us and the bartenders. We had some apps which is such a great value here at happy hour! We were so impressed by the size of the apps and we didn’t need to eat dinner. We had the mac and cheese (massive delish portion), wedge salad and wings. Everything was really good and came out pretty fast.
We hung out for a couple of drinks and it didn’t kill our wallet. I would definitely come back here as they have more of an adult vibe instead of the bro vibe you usually get in old town. Plus I hear they have a hidden room and just because its hidden I want to eat in it!

My wife and I went to The Beverly a few weeks ago and we enjoyed it. The Beverly is under some new management so changes for the better will be occurring over time.

I love the Beverly’s drinks and I have brought many people to join in happy hours! The drinks were the best in town and the happy hour is a great deal. Unfortunately, the restaurant changed management recently and did an overhaul on the cocktail menu. Currently sitting in a booth in the restaurant and missing the old cocktails :(I should also mention that the service is typically slow going…

I have now been to The Beverly three times, twice with friends and on a date and once with my gal pals when we celebrated my birthday bash. The servers are always quite friendly and efficient. The HH cocktails are great. I ordered the drink that has the word «aspirin» in it. I can’t remember the exact name. It was soooo good that three of my four gal pals ordered it as well. We had the mac and cheese, the wings, deviled eggs, margarita flatbread, truffle fries. I like the wings, mac and cheese and the fries. I didn’t care for the eggs. Too much pickle. I don’t especially care for bread, therefore didn’t really like the flatbread.
The furniture is rather dark and heavy. One can sit on the patio in the front as well and watch and listen to the traffic. I like the atmosphere albeit it could probably seem «hot» in the summer because of the darkness of the décor. A musician was setting up when we left. Next time, I shall have to stay for the music.

Very crappy service… Adam says he doesn’t care about customer service. He’s a manager…

Hokay, Been to this place twice now. Went last Friday to hear this little jazz band, which was pretty good. Sadly that was the best part. Let’s start with the food. Let’s have some fish. Pretty sure it isn’t supposed to ooze grease, or taste well, bad. And oh yeah, a reminder of the crappy tilapia for some time the next morning. Fun times.
Ok, so I didn’t go there to have a gourmet meal. Bad fish aside, let’s have a drink! Since the waitress didn’t know or couldn’t tell me what tequila they had, I went to the bar. Asking questions including how much, I settled on a Don Julio Anejo for 15.00 Kinda pricey for a mid level sipping tequila, but hey, it IS Old Town. Can I have it on the rocks? Sure!
Decided to have a change of scenery and our bill came.
It isn’t the money, I mean 3.00 isn’t much. But really? 3.00 for «rocks»?? A fifteen dollar small pour of anything should come with free ice. It was on the side, maybe five cubes in a small glass. For three bucks, could you just add it to my drink for me?
Sorry The Beverly, there won’t be a third time to charm me, twice was enough. There are WAY too many places in Old Town that are much better, or much more economical. You didn’t make either list.

I was here with Bros Clem while they were shooting their music video in the «secret room». They were very accommodating and we had an amazing time. The atmosphere is fantastic, it’s super dark and kind of gives you an underground feeling. The bartenders were really great!
We also ordered some food. They have these little filet mignon bites that are out of this world. I’d definitely go back!

What can I say about this classy and sophisticated little secret? Oh! I know! I can tell you that it is so perfect and amazing for a pre-​dinner meet up as their happy hour is completely worth the stop.
Has an old Hollywood vibe to its interior but more on the eclectic side.
Pick Your Sour and the Blood and Sand were my favs! Hubby surprisingly went for boulevardier and he loved it!
We enjoyed a few bites and they were also delicious. Braden, our server was a mixologist extraordinaire with a keen sense of flava! He described in detail the fronts and backs of the bourbons and made us some killer classics!
Earning the Beverly a 5 star «this was such a perfect HH» review!

The bartender is amazing and knowledgable, he provided us with a flavor profile … descibing the flavors in every drink. In addition he is able to provide excellent service and still has time to explain everything and socialize. The happy hour food is not bar food, its very upscale and meticulously prepared.

After hearing a «never again» review, from a family member, a friend and I decided to check it out, for ourselves. While the cocktails were okay — nothing more than that — the service (which started out amicably) simply disappeared — and we were seated AT THE BAR. We had been poised to order food but, by the time another bartender got around to us, all we wanted was the check and to leave, ASAP. If they had been super busy, it might have been forgivable but there was one table, on the patio, one table inside and two other people at the bar. Seriously.
At one point, the bartender had gone around and was wiping down the bar, on the other side, while we sat there, with empty glasses. Now that’s bad.

Great place to grab a drink. Whiskey menu is a plus. Usually pretty quiet before 8PM or so. Cool old blank and white movies playing on the TV.

My boyfriend and I visited here for the second time– we take weekend trips from Vegas. Really amazing cocktails. I’ve had the Hemingway Daiquiri and Amaretto Sour Stone. He’s a whiskey man and absolutely loved the Sazerac– he said it’s exactly how a whiskey cocktail should be. Ambiance is great; service was on point. The only thing I’d recommend for improvement is to turn down the live music amp by a notch or two– they had a band with artists playing the cello, drums, and trumpet– the trumpet could be a bit ear piercing at times, though they are great musicians! We will be back!

Love this place! Super cute and the food is delish (especially the Brussel Spouts and the Deviled Eggs). The drinks are also super tasty. The service is a little eh, but everything else makes up for it!

Don’t go there for the food. It’s not good. The décor is ok if you like generic hipster filled with old people. Ponytail bartender was super nice. The other bartender showed up for work so I guess that’s a plus? Def not worth a return visit.

Swanky cocktail bar with great live music.
Highlights:
— Cocktails: some classics like a sazerac plus a few cool ones like a green chile vodka one
— Live music: loved the guy with a guitar singing his own cover versions
— Bar: long rectangle with comfy leathery padding to lean on
— Atmosphere: bit dark and cool with a good mix of people away from the more lively bar areas
Lowlights:
— Music stopped a bit early so we only got to hear a bit. Energy wasn’t as electric when the musician left.
Loved this spot and would come back.

This is our go-​to after dinner drink spot! It is super classy, there is usually live music on the weekends, and all in all, it is just a great place to sit back, relax and sip on great classic cocktails while mingling with your significant other or friends. To the guys: If you want to impress a date, bring her here after dinner! Their cocktails have unique ingredients that you can’t just get anywhere. My favorite is the French which has gin, fresh lemon, and champagne. Specialty cocktails are $ 12 but they’re worth it, especially when there is live music. We’ll be back soon!

This place is top notch. My friends and I love to start the night here before wandering into old town and the service has always been fast and friendly.

Very chill place. Went on a Wednesday night so not too busy. Good drink selection. The French dip sliders are very good. The Truffle fries had a nice crunchy taste and my friend order the Charcuterie so we felt super bourgeoisie.

Without a doubt the worst dining experience I have ever had. I ordered a wedge salad. The salad had all the makings of a wedge salad, but was not. With loads of dressing saturating the whole plate with lettuce in small pieces it was disguising. The menu is so small you really did not have any healthy choices. I asked if I could add a protein to the salad and was told they only have fried chicken, ok forget that. We ended up just leaving and going to another restaurant nearby.

Decent drinks, friendly albeit somewhat absent service, and insanely loud music are all you really need to know.
Drink prices are on the upper end for Scottsdale, but are «artisanal» and «hand-​crafted» so it’s worth it, amirite?
PS I miss the goat head from the Mabel’s days.
PPS Would be a good place to bring an ugly, doesn’t match his/​her pictures online date because it’s realllllly dark.

We stumbled upon The Beverly for an after dinner drink and were so pleasantly surprised! It’s right on Main St, which is art gallery central and a cool part of the city. What a fun spot to have a cocktail and do some people watching. We did not try the food, but the bartenders were fast and friendly.
The bar is unusual for Scottsdale because it has an older «city» feel to it. Brick walls, tin ceiling tiles, chandeliers and vintage lamp shades.
They had live entertainment too, a Santana look alike and another band mate playing mostly 80’s tunes, it was great! It was lively without being too loud.

And we love Stevie too… The finest of mixologists with a hint of mischievousness!!!
…and Chris = Rock Star (makes an excellent Old Fashioned!)

Chose The Beverly as it used to Mabel’s on Main. The atmosphere inside was nice and they kept the temperature cool.
First waitress (black hair, bangs) didn’t seem very interested in helping us, no smiles from her and right off the bat we were told they couldn’t make a certain drink because something was broken at the bar.
We ordered happy hour items, the drinks were good and the food that came out was pretty decent, minus the wedge salad not actually being a wedge.
2^nd waiter (guy long hair pulled back) was super friendly, knowledgable and accommodating to our group.
There was however a guy working there that we couldn’t figure out if he was friends with someone or actually worked there. He was dressed in all workout gear and was so obnoxiously out of the place. Not dressing up does not serve the bar well or help keep the theme you’re attempting to establish.
As far as a return visit, probably not.
The bathrooms need some work and attending to as well.

My review for The Beverly is long overdue, as I’ve been coming here for a while now since the ownership/​name change from the old Mabel’s on Main.
First things first, this place is great for happy hour cocktails and food or an evening/​late night round of drinks and shareable options, but it’s not necessarily a dinner spot in my opinion. They have some really good small plates or appetizers across the menu which you can fill up on (you have to try the filet bites and sliders), but a limited amount of entrée style offerings.
The handcrafted cocktails are second to none in town and on a seasonal rotation. If you’re looking for a nice cozy lounge to sip on some quality libations away from the craziness in Old Town Scottsdale, this is the place to go. They do everything from bringing in live music with a DJ or band, cocktail dinners featuring specific distributors, to private parties in their back room (hidden behind the bookshelf and two-​way mirror).
The ambiance is great with the low lighting, worn brick walls, and strange classic movies playing on the TV. Chris Hardin and his staff do a fantastic job with their above and beyond service as well. I recently put together a small party for my brother using the private room in the back and everything went off without a hitch.
The Beverly is definitely worth checking out if you’re in the Old Town area and looking for something a little different.

Disclaimer: I was here for drinks, not food… so I’m rating this place at first blush… that said, I’m looking forward to the opportunity to come back ASAP!
I know I’ve passed this place a handful of times, each one thinking «Wow, what is that place? It’s hopping in there!!! I’ve gotta get back here and check it out!» Well, going out for a friend’s birthday, I finally had a chance to pop in and see what it was about!
We started here for drinks, and I’ve gotta say, the ambiance is so cool and comfortable. The seating options range from cozy chairs to big lush booths that encourage an intimate feel, perfect for kicking off an evening or catching up with friends! I ordered the «Secret Garden», which was so good, I went back for another. The service was reasonable, though a little slow to check for refills. I’m told that they have a great happy hour, so I’ll definitely make my way back over to see how that is. What a cool discovery, and just a few blocks from home! Perfect!

Stumbled upon The Beverly for late night drinks as we were strolling the Art Walk in Downtown Scottsdale. We were drawn in because of the live jazz band and spacious, speakeasy-​like interior. I’m told that it is the former Mabel’s on Main.
Great craft cocktails, sometimes they do 30% off gins and whiskeys (not sure if it’s certain days or hours, but check out the sign on your way to the bathroom) where you can $ 5-​$ 8 gins and whiskey well drinks.
Love the chill environment with live music, definitely a great place to wine down the night at. Looks like they have a half off drinks happy hour from 3−7pm!

Attended a free Jack Daniels event, but they served a bunch of good food from the kitchen. I could not tell much difference from the last place that was here — they seemed to have taken all the TV sets down as they have one TV set and on a Saturday afternoon, it wasn’t even turned on. The patio outside and bar inside are unchanged. All my drinks were free, but the bartender did mix a nice Jack and Coke. The buffet had a wide array of foods and most were top notch including the sliders (beef burger and beef). The pizza was thin crust and cold, but the mac and cheese was a good version with bread crumbs and all the salads and cheese plates were fresh as well. Seems like a nice place still to grab a drink and appetizer.

Absolute mule!
Great atmosphere, food and staff. Been several times and it quickly becoming a fav spot!!!

I came here for dinner and drinks with a friend.
They have a very small menu. I ended up ordering the filet bites. They were definitely very tender and cooked perfectly but not filling at all. My friend ordered the truffle fries which were huge!!! They came with a very tasty dipping sauce. For drinks, their menu didn’t really have anything that caught my eye so I ended up getting the Parker station Pinot noir wine. This was very smooth.
This is a pretty small restaurant and their menu selection is very small. After 9 they have a live dj. So it gets extremely loud. I couldn’t hear anything my friend said. I Wouldn’t come back for dinner. However I’d probably come back for drinks or to try their happy hour.

Beautiful décor — classy, cozy and very comfortable on a cool AZ evening! They have a great happy hour — $ 5 wedge salad & ½ price cocktails. I enjoyed the French 7018 and it was fantastic — gin, apricot and prosecco… how can you go wrong with that combination?
We will definitely be back for more tasty cocktails and eats!

I’ve only been in for Happy Hour/​Dinner, so I’ll save a 5-​star review for when I return later at night.
This place is very similar to «Mabel’s On Main,» but with a smaller food menu.
Some tasty appetizers (the flatbreads are delicious), some great burgers, but not too much else.
You really want to go here for the awesome food/​drink specials (Happy Hour goes until 7 and includes $ 2-​$ 3 beers, as well as half-​off cocktails. YUM.
The place was pretty deserted when we came in, so hey, come check this place out!
You kind of have to search it out, but it’s worth the effort.
ENJOY!

Friday night date dinner on the way to our friends birthday party within a mile of this new spot– The Beverly.
We stopped in around 8:30pm and parked right out front, the dark awnings with thin writing made this bar slightly difficult to find.
We realized it was a seat yourself kind of place– which we did. They had a range of high top tables, booths, and bar seating.
I opted for a piña colada which was delicious and strong! We ordered a Brussels sprout salad & margherita flatbread. Both food options exceeded our expectations!
This is more of a bar with food– not as much of a restaurant which is fine with me.
They had a dj playing a mix of top 40 & classic party starters– would have liked a more hip music mix to match the ambience & elevated drink menu. This is not Applebee’s!
Overall would return with a group of people or another date night drink spot!
