About time for a nice clean Gay Bar in Phoenix.

Bar Name Says It All (The best in Phoenix)

Clean and nice appearing stocked bar; great noon lunches and after 4PM snacks; good management and caring and capable staff (will send you home in a taxicab when necessary); a nice place for professional, semi-professonal and blue collar workers to hang out, shoot pool, throw darts and visit over a drink. If I have to make a choice, my favorite bartender is Tom.

Visiting from San Francisco Ca, had a great time at Friends, I am amazed how friendly everyone was to me, bar tenders, servers and patrons. I am looking forward to visiting again and seeing again those people who made my time at Friends so enjoyable.

Every city needs a Freinds

Very clean, nice, good service, great food. If I lived in Phoenix this would be "my bar". The Sunday brunch was really good. Live music on Sunday night is a great feature. Everyone was very friendly and a great mix of people..
