Hidden gem alert! If you're looking for a cozy spot to grab drinks with some locals, this is the place for you. It’s free of frills and fuss—just a great neighborhood bar where you can relax and socialize. The woman managing the bar was kind enough to turn on the Suns game for us, which made our visit even better. My friends and I had a fantastic time enjoying drinks and chatting. Highly recommend!

What Taric W dislikes about Kat's:
There's something truly intriguing about a hidden gem of a bar that has garnered just a dozen reviews over the course of nearly a decade. I've driven past this intersection countless times without ever realizing it was there! Perhaps it's because the place is a bit worn, grimy, and has a somewhat sketchy vibe—almost to the point where you might feel like you need a tetanus shot after touching anything inside. Yet, th...

I stumbled upon this gem by chance! It's a fantastic neighborhood bar with affordable drinks, a pool table, a pinball machine, and a jukebox. The bar is tidy and offers around a dozen seats. The atmosphere is lively, and the crowd is friendly. Phil, the bartender, is excellent! You should definitely give it a try!

Perhaps it's because the place is a bit worn, grimy, and has a somewhat sketchy vibe—almost to the point where you might feel like you need a tetanus shot after touching anything inside. Yet, there's a certain charm in its imperfections. Kat's features a pleasant patio, karaoke nights, and a welcoming neighborhood bar atmosphere. It's been around for quite a while and deserves to stick around because it isn't trying to be trendy like nearly every other spot within a five-mile radius. Just crack open a Budweiser and soak it all in.

Okay! ZERO. Enter at your own STD check. There is a super rad place across the street- Helton's . Kudos to the male bartender @Kat's) that was sober and seeing the errors of a lot of ways. Will check my bill tomorrow to confirm I was properly charged. Do not order water and a shot or you will be kicked out by the owner that is wasted at the end of the bar. Ah! She would rather take tips from her bartenders than potentially have to serve a water and make money on a shot. I wish I could understand the reasoning behind it. Stay positive friends! And I wish the most luck if you enter!

I love a good dive bar!! While the other people there were friendly, the one server was not, and she poured 2 of the worst drinks we've ever had. We ordered a Tito's and soda and Bacardi and Diet Coke- tasted like she put zero alcohol in them. We both took about 2 sips and left the full drinks. She didn't ask about our drinks and charged $10. There are too many really solid establishments in the area to do business that way.

Tucked away and unpretentious, Kat’s Bar embodies the quintessential neighborhood dive with a loyal local following. Its relaxed atmosphere, complete with pool tables, darts, karaoke, and a jukebox, offers simple, affordable fun without the pretense of trendiness. While some note inconsistencies with service and drink quality, many praise the friendly bartenders and welcoming vibe. The outdoor patio and communal spirit make it a genuine spot to unwind, socialize, and catch a game. Though rough around the edges, Kat’s charm lies in its authenticity—a lasting haven for those seeking a casual, no-frills night out.

This place is a gem. It's a local favorite, with a classic dive bar vibe featuring two pool tables, a dartboard, and a pinball machine. We visited at the end of July and opted to stay indoors. The bartender was very friendly as well.

I absolutely love this place! It's a vibrant spot that's perfect for chatting and enjoying music. They have karaoke during the week and parties on the weekends. The bartenders are all incredibly friendly and remember their regulars, making the atmosphere even more welcoming. Sue, my favorite bartender, has been here for years and always takes great care of me whenever I stop by, no matter how long it's been since my last visit. I highly recommend this place to anyone searching for an affordable dive bar in the city that provides top-notch service!

I absolutely loved the blonde bartender who worked on Monday night. I had a reunion with some high school friends, and she was so attentive and friendly, always checking on us even while we were sitting outside in the heat. Great service; thank you for taking such good care of us!

I don't often go to bars, but this bar is a good place for a breath! Drinks are good and cheap, the bar staff is friendly and consists of 2 very nice ladies, both very hospitable! They even have decent pool kings and a variety of music that is pleasant. It wasn't too often there, but this is my story, I'm staying on...

I love Kats! As a single female I wouldn't normally go to a bar alone but Kats is homey. Wanda is wonderful. All the crew is excellent! Wouldn't go anywhere else. Love you guys!
