text: I am so glad to know there is a place like Rips that is bringing back the younger night crowd to Phoenix Yes I do have other neighborhood bars that I casually have a drink at but Rips has great drink specials the starlike ceiling is beautiful and i love that it is also showcasing local artwork on its wall nnWhat Phoenix was lacking was a rocking dance night Since Hot Pink ended its Friday nights at Carumbas Obscura at Rips has definitely filled the void I definitely get pumped up for second Saturdays I love dancing to music you do not hear everyday on the radio and the mix those two DJs spin is just what the doctor order after a long day of retailnnDrinks oh the drinks Rips has an array of liquors and beers Pinnacle vodkaswhat flavor do they not make I think I saw around a dozen different flavors from Pomegranate to Cotton Candy Every time I return I try a new onenBut most of all I love the fact the owner kept the original vintage sign With the over sized red arrow outlined in light bulbs you will have no problem spotting it when driving down th street I suggest you check it out and befriend the bar on Facebook because you do not want to miss out on specials or events
