Now I’ve been to many dive bars in my life. I’m neither proud or ashamed of having said that because it is always like stepping into an alternate universe and timeline where you can be anybody you want and do anything you want to do. Ever since I used the bathroom at the Buffet Bar, I always vowed to be a better person because once you get a glimpse of hell, you’ll never want to go back.I stumbled across Danny’s Baboquivari Lounge on the googles and wanted to check it out. Besides Baboquivari being fun to say, I learned that The United States Congress designated the Baboquivari Peak Wilderness in 1990. It is the smallest such designated wilderness in the state of Arizona. According to O'odham nation legend at the beginning of the Spanish conquest of what is present day Arizona, a certain Spanish officer and his men tried to dig their way into Baboquivari Peak. Suddenly, the ground under them opened and Baboquivari swallowed them. This legend has similarities to Francisco Vásquez de Coronado search for the Seven Cities of Cibola and a place called Quivira, where, he was told, he could get his hands on unlimited quantities of gold. Anyway, I just wanted to get drunk and come across another type of gold-digger if you know what I’m sayin’! It’s just cool to learn about local lore while looking for a new place to drown some demons.Immediately while walking in here on a Sunday night, I felt like a naked, buff cyborg from the future looking for some clothes, boots and a motorcycle. What a vibe. The smell of broken dreams, pall malls, cheap whiskey and avoiding child support. My kinda joint. The quaint wood beams, the torn, dried-blood red leather booth seating, the half-working electronic dartboards, oregon trail wall decor, pinball machines, the 5 pool tables in the back, a jukebox and a Ms. Pacman setup. To this day, ill never understand why THE Pac-Man didn’t marry. Or maybe he did and he went through a divorce. Pretty sure there’s an online rabbit hole to go down on that one. But how appropriate to think about while my jukebox song “Wake Up” by Mad Season echoed through these beautifully forsaken walls.After I ordered a PBR and a shot of whiskey, I walked toward the pool tables and there was an older lady with an eyepatch, a bandana and some fingergloves practicing her technique. I racked up on the table next to her’s and could tell she was judging me with her one eye especially after I messed up the break. At one point I accidently got in her way while she was lining up a shot and then she started shouting some homophobic, anti-semetic and unforgivably racist phrases and idioms but I offered to buy her a shot anyway and then she offered to do unmentionables to me behind the food truck outside. Her tune changed real quick. Her three teeth glistening with anticipation. I politely declined and went to go settle my tab. While waiting for the bartender, the guy next to me who had the whole down and out trucker vibe going on leaned over and asked “if I’ve ever thought about robbing a blood bank before” and I told him it sounded like too much squeeze for the juice but then he just stared at me for 20 seconds. I decided I needed another drink and just went to go flirt with Ms. Pacman for the next hour while watching my back. Great vibes here. Will return. 5 stars.

The staff is very friendly. You've got plenty of things to keep you busy with pool, darts, shuffleboard and air-hockey. Love the neighborhood atmosphere!!

It's a dive bar But they have many pool tables so you can always get a table! The bartenders are friendly and they always have something on special. I do believe they host different food-trucks.

The prices were great but the bartenders were extremely rude to us for no reason at all! All they seemed to care about was their regulars. It would be such a cool place if the bartenders would loose their attitudes!

Definitely "the" favorite dive bar! For me it's honestly a home away from home. So much so I feel like at this point its "Eat , Prey, Danny's" ? ?

Was having a goodnight w my girlfriend bar hopping around town just tryna have a good time but for some reason it was such an out of the ordinary question for this bartender that I asked if they had any specials on their drinks??? I honestly didn't understand why they came off as rude as they did but last time I checked it's a bar. It should be a common question for y'all. like i get it if y'all have 2$ pints but me as a customer how do you expect me to know that?? It was just straight up weird the way he responded. killed our vibe completely. Wish people didn't make others feeling bad for asking questions Shout out to Max at the entrance though!! He was very nice n welcoming
