We stopped at Sliders after a DBacks game to have a drink since it was such a nice day out. This was the first time I'd been to Sliders even though I've walked past it so many times seeing how packed it usually is before and after games.

I would say it's an ok place to just get a drink. They have plenty of outdoor seating and misters to help in the summer. On the day we were there, they ran out of the beer we wanted! So either they were very busy that day or someone didn't order enough Blue Moon... Not sure. We also tried the nachos off of the appatizer menu, I would say bad idea unless you appreciate flavorless chili and an entire layer of jalepenos on top of everything.

If I do end up going there again it will be just for a drink before or after a game and hopefully they have the beer stocked!

A bunch of us were headed to the D-backs and meeting up at the stadium.  The least confusing place to meet was obviously Sliders as it is right outside the stadium.  This wasn't my first choice, but I wasn't going to complain in order to make it less convenient for all parties involved.

We arrived and had the door men check our IDs.  After a very large black stamp was used on my hand to indicate my over 21 status, we were seated quickly.  Because the downstairs area seemed full, we were seated upstairs.  The upstairs is an odd space- it is too open and the tables seem too small for it.  It is obvious that the space was originally designed for a more club type feel- with a raised dance floor, DJ box and long bar.  The chairs and tables are old plastic lawn chairs.

I asked what they had on draft (draft beer goes with baseball, right?) and our server informed me that the draft lines were not working because they are not open everyday.  Not sure why I needed to know that, so I had to opt for a bottled beer.  They didn't have anything fun or obscure, just the standard Miller Lite and whatnot.  

We were supposed to grab a bite to eat but no one was really felt the food on their menu seemed appetizing and almost everyone opted to wait for the game (where prices are much higher).  I, personally noticed the door guys aimlessly wandering around with people's food.  They all seemed to be dripping sweat despite the air conditioned dining area, so this made eating her much less appetizing to me.

Two people in our party did get the sliders, which they seemed happy with but that isn't something I'd eat.  

Sliders will always be busy because of their proximity to the stadium, but I'd much rather go somewhere else and get a little exercise in, as well.

Being right next to Chase Field makes this the perfect spot to meet up with friends before or after the game.  Ladies, check your feminism at the door, because you'll find scantily-clad beer tub girls and the DJ encouraging women to dance on the bar.  Otherwise it's a typical sports bar with a nice patio and crappy TVs.  If you want to watch the game, you're better off going to Chase Field.  If you want to watch people, Sliders is the place.

Erica is right, this is people watching central.  As an out-of-towner, I was advised this is where the out-of-towners go.  Beers were $4.  It was crowded but not so packed you couldn't move anywhere.  The patio has water spritzers to keep you cool on the hot days.  Great place to go and wait out the traffic departures.
