Description

Miss the old frat house? You'll swear you've stepped into old Omega Alpha Etcetera when visiting this peculiar Tempe tavern. Perhaps it's the cardboard portrait of Princess Leia stapled to the wall or the thrift-store décor of mismatched furniture and odd tchotchkes that give Monkey Pants its frat-house vibe. The wait staff shouts "Hello!" as you enter, and will even give you an unusual nickname (like "Goosey Lucy" or "Gorgeous George") even if you don't want one. There's plenty of wacky fun to be had during the week, including goldfish races, crotch-kicking contests, and such theme nights as Sombrero Sundays and Mustache Mondays. This place is off-kilter and off the hook, to say the least.







  • 2006 | BEST PLACE TO TAKE YOUR SHIRT OFF

    After attending a few of Monkey Pants' "One O'Clock Shirtless Shot" promotions, we wholeheartedly endorse going topless at this wacky watering hole in Tempe. A single one-cent shot of any liquor in stock -- including such premium spirits as Patrón and Hennessey -- is doled out to anyone engaging in the half-naked high jinks (ladies are required to wear bras).

    Some of the most chill bars are located around the Southern & Mill intersection - Yucca, Time Out and Monkey Pants. This place has a "fireplace" you can curl up to, pool tables and loads of board games to keep you busy. If you notice guys with their shirts off, don't worry - it's a tradition when taking a certain shot there. Lots of delicious fried bar food is available as well.
