You must visit this old traditional cowboy pub. The live music was excellent with the guitarist / singer was just the best. He took requests and rattled off anything from Jackson Browne to James Taylor to Garth Brooks. Staff excellent and got us a taxi on request with no fuss whatsoever. I still cannot believe a local beer was called Kilt Lifter which as a Scot I appreciated. Don't miss the experience.

My husband and I (early 30s) stumbled into this bar, mid Saturday afternoon....It was PACKED!! It looked so inviting...It's a tiny little spot, but it screams authenticity and a good time...We're from Canada so this is an added bonus for us......We somehow managed to sneak in, and even grab a table. There was live music, a solo singer singing classic covers that had everyone going... The crowd ranged from mid 20s to some older folks..But everyone was in a good mood. Bartenders are on-point & fast...Drinks were good with an extra kick! Can't wait to go back one day!

We ate here for lunch. We all thought our food was good. The atmosphere was fun! Had a live singer playing the guitar and harmonica who was very good to listen too.

Had the worst experience with this place. Everyone pay attention to your bank account on what they take out as a tip! They screwed over both my friend and myself. Very rude! I even had to take a picture of my receipt since she said I tipped $20 and it was clearly written $3.00.

Along with friends, I’ve been going here for years. We’ve generally had a pretty good time but upon our last visit we’ve all decided we’re done with this place.
We’ve never gone for the food so I can’t comment on that. The place is always packed and we’ve had lots of fun here. We’ve never been upset with busy bartenders being a little grumpy as that’s kind of understandable.
The music is average at best but with a packed house it has always been fun.
Our reason for calling it quits heee falls solely on the leader of the band who constantly tells every female who walks in ten door to “show me your titties”. Or babe alert. Or don’t be cheap coco&&suckers tip the band.
Pleas note, I’m a male and really not offended by much and not even offended by this clown. Nor are my friends offended. I, and we, just don’t need to be around any clown who speaks like this. No matter how much fun we’ve had here in the past.
There are many many places in Scottsdale to have fun at without supporting this goof.
We’d be happy to return if this clown left or entered 2020.

I was travelling on business with my colleagues and stopped off here for drinks towards the end of the evening. To say the barman was anything short of rude would be an understatement. His attitude towards paying customers was well below par of any acceptable standard and when heard saying to other customers “I’ve got to serve those annoying Europeans” demonstrated his level of customer service. So rude. To add insult to injury, and I say this knowing how tipping works, a tip should be recognition of good service. To be told your check is $41 and then told it’s a $9 tip for 6 drinks after handing over $50, without the chance to decide myself how much I’ll tip is disgraceful.

The Rusty Spur is a small, rude, hole in the wall. Bartender had one emotion, none. Give him a tip and still nothing. Don't sit near the "locals" table at the front of the bar unless you want to be harassed and moved when the house band is playing on Friday night. This bar really has everything you need to have a good time, unfortunately, the staff, band, and regulars make it hard to enjoy. Don't waste your time or money at this place. There are plenty of friendly bars and taverns in Old Town, stay clear of the Rusty Spur.

Don’t even want to write a positive review cause I don’t want even more people going. It’s like Nashville in the desert. Bartenders and bouncers super cool guys.

It's a typical little bar but it was packed and the waitress was understandably grumpy. A guy playing live music was cool but hard to hear over everyone in there.
