Gilligins is by far my favorite dive bar In Scottsdale. They have a wide variety of alcohol and great specials every day. They also have happy hour every day . They actually have a really great food menu. Their popcorn shrimp and corn dogs are two of my favorites. Their shot wheel is entertaining and on holidays like Halloween and st Patrick's day they have an annual block party. They're also a Chicago beers bar. They have karaoke on Sundays and a large outdoor patio with comfortable seating. Service is always great , I've never had a complaint about that over the past decade.

Loved it!! We stumbled into this gem after some of the gals in our group had hats made (whole story behind that lol) I love the wheel of drinks that you pay to spin. Whatever you land on is the drink your shooting. So fun- feels like Wheel of Fortune (or unfortune if you land on something you don't like) Christmas lights adorning the space and basically every alcohol bottle known to man neatly displayed around the entire bar. Good time- I'd go back for sure.

I'm a scottsdale native and have lived here my whole life, and never experienced the mistreatment like I did last night at Gilligins. This was actually my first time and I was really excited since this is one of the most popular bars in old town. We opened a tab, and let the bartender know we were leaving but would be back at some point. We eventually made our way back and it was packed, but we saw an open barstool so my friend took a seat. A minute goes by and a guy confronts her and says that was his seat. We said sorry but it was open and you didn't have someone save it and no one around us said anything. He told us was there alone. Immediately this guy goes to the bartender and tells him my friend spilled his beer all over the floor and demanded a new one and told the bartender not to serve us. Despite the fact that this guy was yelling and dropping profanities left and right the bartender smiled and nodded and said he wouldn't serve any of the girls in our group. Literally had to flag down a different bartender to close our tab since he completely ignored us the rest of our time there. I'll never be back. Pattie's has a similar vibe and the bartenders are actually so nice every time I've ever gone. When we came outside to leave we hung out on the patio for a couple minutes waiting for Ubers and of course he comes out and starts talking about us to the bouncer, laughing pointing etc. couldn't have had a worst first, and last, experience at Gilligins.

This place is so cute! I love all the lights. The bouncer was so incredibly nice. We love the drink specials. I wish I lived here in Scottsdale. They said they're having a big St. Patrick's Day block party. I think it would be really fun.

We really loved this place! Lots of crazy happening here! We had a blast! Whatever you do, don't drink the plunger shot! Lol They had good pizza too! Drinks were good, a little pricey for some though. Def enjoy the happy hour!

A bunch of friends and I stopped in after and event in the area. Loved the festive atmosphere with all the holiday lights. How can you not get in the spirit. Some of the friends were fascinated with the wheel and bought some spins for shots.It was trivia night so we all played on sheet of trivia vs all of us having a sheet. The bartenders and bouncer were nice. Would totally go back for a drink during the holidays.

Giligans is a great place for a strong drink I ordered a tea with peach deep eddys and my husband ordered a 7n7! Both are great and we had great service on a Thursday evening! Highly recommend coming here for a drink!

How have I not reviewed this fkn GEM of a bar in Scottsdale yet?! I have been here so many times and I can't say enough good things about Giligans!! They have the best ambiance and decor!! Jib has done SUCH an amazing job making Giligans the CLASSIEST fucking dive bar that you will ever want to take your friends to!! Has its own little VIP area, and the drinks they pour are strong!! Also they have the best drunk bar food you can order (think pizza rolls!!) Oh and it's also the BEST bar to celebrate the holidays because if ourshines every other bars lights, TRUST ME! Thanks Jib and co! Love your establishment!!! Highly recommend!! 10/5!

Food is good. Typical bar food with some interesting twists. No table service. Get everything at the bars. Large selection of spirits and again interesting cocktails. Ambiance is garage sale beach. A bit loud for me but most Scottsdale bars are. Giligin's been in business for over 28 years. Must be doing something right.

Really cool place with every type type of liquor or beer you could want, but service is trash. Stephanie seemed like she didn't want to be there and was very unwelcoming. Seemed like she got diked down by Tyrone and took it out on everyone else. Chill place to hang w friends, trash bartenders
