My Review by terencev on 2/24/2015 via Citysearch
My girlfriend and I felt like we took a trip to New York, Chicago or San Francisco, and all by driving about 20 minutes to the MercBar. We hadn't been in awhile, and were immediately made to feel comfortable. The joint is beautiful,…

Martini anyone? Still the best in town by theoneexpert on 10/29/2007 via Citysearch
Greg Wheeler designer and owner of the MERC created this club while living in Denver in the 80's. Spending his extra time at the Denver design center and planning several cities based on work and nitelife. Executive…

Wow by sammy111 on 10/22/2007 via Citysearch
It was like I walked into a big living room. The low couches with low lighting set the mood for a relaxing evening. The waitress was very informative about the menu and steered me towards a Sophia Loren, wow. This was the best martini…

Swanky... by synchrosk8 on 8/8/2007 via Citysearch
I enjoy meeting up with a girlfriend or two, after work, on a weeknight. But even if its empty, you have to be "prepared" for the slower service. (Last visit just used their free wifi and played with our iPhone, while waiting for the…

Good time by lincolndrive on 7/10/2007 via Citysearch
Weird how there are some good reviews and some terrible ones. I was there last Friday on my birthday and had a fantastic time. Bartender was friendly and there was a good happy hour. The drinks are reasonable and I even got a free…

Dishonest and Incapable Servers by edarai on 6/17/2007 via Citysearch
My boyfriend and I went to Merc Bar for the 1st time on a Thursday about 2 weeks ago. We were greeted at the door quickly and told we could sit wherever we wanted. It was very empty so we chose a table as opposed to the bar. Our server,…

bad customer service by azra440 on 6/10/2007 via Citysearch
I used to like going to Merc bar untill recently. The staff was disappointing. Me and my boyfriend celebrated our anniversary and wanted to get a drink after dinner, they ignored us for 40 minutes and they were not realy busy. We asked the…

Great time by electric311 on 5/22/2007 via Citysearch
Went into Merc on a Sunday night and it was packed. Staff are very friendly so I don't know why there were some bad reviews. Looked like some reviews were OLD. Anyway, the drinks are expensive-ish but at least you don't have college…

nah by muranodiva on 11/11/2006 via Citysearch
I went to this bar and was disappointed. It's really small, there's no place to dance and they don't really play any good dance music. I suppose I was misled with my friend telling me about it. It really is just a small lounge with a…

Short on service Long on Atmosphere by creativeconsultinggroup on 11/14/2005 via Citysearch
The service was just plain poor. Had to first chase down the unattentive alternative lifestyle bartender. All into himself. Switched to a table and life returned to normal. There were several eights in the lounge. My female companion…

Bon Chic Bon Genre- Merc Bar by maximumhavoc on 4/2/2005 via Citysearch
The Merc Bar is an amazing place to get together with one friend, or a dozen. The atmosphere is inviting with its comfy couches, and low tables. The drinks and cracker platter are definitely on the must have list. Whether it's a bottle of…

The Merc by breanna321 on 1/17/2005 via Citysearch
I have been going to the Merc for five years now. It is by far the greatest bar in Phoenix! It's totally my spot for the business social scene. Thanx to Carson, Steven, Carter, Dave, Troy and Carter. I know Troy isn't there anymore but…

Uh, NYCs part II by rockdiesel on 8/20/2003 via Citysearch
Ok, so I totally ran into the one in NYCs by accident and they're pretty much identical. Both the decor is the same and they're located "off the beaten path" so you really have to find it. I was excited to see something in AZ that is a…

Get over it. by eon03 on 7/8/2003 via Citysearch
Not to sound like a typical Phoenician but this place was awful. I was in the center to see a flick and stopped in here since I knew they would sell cigarettes. I was dressed very casual and imeediately all three employees ( the only…

Different Feel by TXN_in_AZ on 2/24/2003 via Citysearch
This place is inconspicous. That is - until you get inside and see all the people. The music is loud enough to require you to speak up when sitting at the tables. Beers run 5-6 dollars. Martinis 9-10 dollars. Good mix of guys and…

cool place to chill by kietak on 9/12/2002 via Citysearch
The is a cool place to set back with a few friends and chill. The music is not blarring so it's easy to have a conversation is there. The bartenders made strong drinks.

Chillin' in the 602! by queenb310 on 7/27/2002 via Citysearch
The Merc Bar is one of the best places to go with friends, have a few cocktails, and just chill. The drinks are awesome and the staff is just as ready as you are to toss a few back. And believe me, it pays to be friends with a bartender.
