One of a handful of must-visits in downtown Phoenix. On the fringe of downtown, in the arts district, the Roosevelt is a low key wine bar inside an old house. There is a great selection of domestic beers and some decent snack food, like bologne sandwiches, grilled cheese, tomato soup, and soft pretzels. The inside looks like a house from about 60 years ago, dim lighting and the walls in each room are painted a different dark color. Great place for a happy hour, at night it can get pretty busy and it's not easy to find a seat. I would also recommend coming out to First Friday; the first Friday of every month in the arts district is hopping with people, there is an art festival and all the art galleries are open, and there plenty of food vendors and local bands. The Roosevelt is basically in the middle of it.
