Downtown Flagstaff's top-rated craft cocktail lounge
Lobo Drinkhouse is a craft cocktail lounge in downtown Flagstaff, a short walk from the historic Route 66 core, with a 4.9 rating from nearly 100 reviews since opening. Regulars keep coming back for the elevated, thoughtfully garnished cocktail menu and a chill-but-upscale lounge feel that stands out from Flagstaff's more typical bar scene.
The drinks are the draw here — reviewers repeatedly single out the craft, balance, and creativity of the cocktail list, with the owners known for personally walking guests through the menu. The kitchen has since opened as well, turning out tacos (carne asada, chicken, or mushrooms al pastor) with sides of pickled onions, salsa, and cucumber salad. One reviewer mentioned a 50%-off happy hour from 4-5 PM shortly after opening, so it's worth asking staff if a deal is still running when you visit.
It's a newer addition to Flagstaff's downtown, but the polish and consistency in the reviews make it worth seeking out over a standard bar stop if you're spending an evening in town after a day at the canyon.

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the drinks that were served at this new downtown Flagstaff lounge. This is a great spot that has a chill but upscale feel. The staff are super friendly as well. Definitely worth stopping by for a drink or two or three......

I’ve visited Lobo several times since they opened a few months ago and it’s probably my new favorite spot. Girls night here is a must, they treat service industry workers with extra kindness and care, and the atmosphere is incredible. The bathrooms are prime picture spots (if you know, you know). Their cocktail menu is so fun, with cute and thoughtful garnishes as well. The service is always excellent, the owners are obviously excited about everything on the menu. This is my new spot outside of where I work! Edit: their kitchen is open now and if I wasn’t sold before, I am now. Dennis is an incredible chef and every part of their tacos was incredible. I will say that the carne asada was my favorite, and the cucumber salad was light, refreshing, and well seasoned. This is the go to spot, not only for drinks, but now for dinner. Their tacos are $5 a piece with a HEALTHY portion of protein(carne asada, chicken, or mushrooms al pastor). They come with a side of ref pickles onions, white onions and cilantro, a tomatillo salsa, and habanero salsa.

ABSOLUTE GEM! If you want superior hand crafted, perfectly balanced cocktails and the most attentive service you could ask for, you must stop here! This place ended up being our best experience while visiting Flagstaff and we happened to stumble upon it by walking by. The owners Brian and Andrew were amazing and made us feel so welcomed from start to finish. Thought we would just stop in for one but stayed for three because the drinks were top notch and the service outstanding. Great happy hour deal! This place should be the destination!

This is a brand new cocktail bar in Flagstaff. It is by far the best cocktail bar in town, and has a distinct Phoenix vibe. The drinks are first rate, the staff are knowledgeable and have years of experience in hospitality and mixology. The lounge just opened, and they have amazing Happy Hour deals, 50% from 4-5pm. I have visited many bars in Flagstaff, and all the top tier cocktail bars in Phoenix, and Lobo Drinkhouse is among the best.

Absolutely amazing cocktails and the tacos were prolly the best I’ve had in flagstaff in the last 5 years. Server was super friendly and informative. They spoke about community collaboration events which speaks more volume then the quality of drinks and foods. Can’t recommend this place enough for tasty drinks and tacos
