Owls Club’s New Cocktails Are Something to Hoot n’ Holler About

Over in the Armory Park neighborhood of downtown Tucson, a unique and dimly-lit cocktail lounge with stained glass and elegant chandeliers awaits your arrival. Since late 2016, Owls Club has been concocting a nice environment — one that’s both enjoyable for hip youngsters and experienced cocktail connoisseurs.

The neighborhood bar experience is constantly evolving, too, at 236 S. Scott Ave. For instance, there’s a brand-new House Cocktails menu to savor at the former funeral home turned bar.

One of the niftiest bits about the new menu (all priced at $12 each) is that the recipes were created collaboratively by the bartending team. Cocktails like the Cliffhanger, which incorporates the locally-based Suncliffe Gin, and the Ken-Tiki — a refreshing mix of bourbon, rum, velvet falernum, almond, cinnamon, and lime in a tall glass of ice — are sure to keep you cool this summer.
