Barrio Queen Happy Hour Today: Menu, Prices & Hours

Barrio Queen Happy Hour at a glance

If you are looking for a happy hour near you in Scottsdale or Tempe, the current 2026 T1 menu gives a useful starting point. Old Town Scottsdale and Tempe Marketplace both use the same official T1 Happy Hour menu. It lists daytime Happy Hour Monday through Friday, 3–6 p.m., with $5 bites and $4 tacos. A separate late-night banner lists evening hours, but it does not give a second item list. Ask the branch which dishes are still served late.

Location	Address	Posted restaurant hours	Published Happy Hour windows
Old Town Scottsdale	7114 E Stetson Drive, Suite 105, Scottsdale, AZ 85251	Sun–Thu 11 a.m.–10 p.m.; Fri–Sat 11 a.m.–11 p.m.	Mon–Fri 3–6 p.m.; late night Sun–Thu 8 p.m.–close, Fri–Sat 9 p.m.–close
Tempe Marketplace	31 S McClintock Dr, Tempe, AZ 85281	Sun–Thu 11 a.m.–10 p.m.; Fri–Sat 11 a.m.–11 p.m.	Mon–Fri 3–6 p.m.; late night Sun–Thu 8 p.m.–close, Fri–Sat 9 p.m.–close

The address and restaurant hours come from Barrio Queen’s location directory. The Happy Hour times come from the official T1 menu that the restaurant assigns to both branches. Barrio Queen calls the Tempe branch “Tempe” on its location page and “Tempe Marketplace” in the menu selector; the shopping center directory confirms the same restaurant name, phone, and hours. Other Barrio Queen locations may use a different menu version or schedule. Check the local menu before you leave.

What is on the Barrio Queen Happy Hour menu?

The daytime menu pairs small bites with tacos. The listed bites are $5 each: quesadilla, tostada, chicken flautas, chicken tinga empanadas, nachitos, Elote Ribs, and Pork Tinga Poblano Pepper. The quesadilla and tostada let you choose a filling. For tacos, the menu lists Carnitas, Pollo Asado, and Birria at $4 each. These are menu prices, not a promise that every item is available during late-night hours.

The drink section lists a $5 Margarita, Reina Sangria, well drinks, and Copper Ridge wine by the glass. A 16-ounce draft is $4. The Barrio Frozen Margarita is $6, with strawberry, mango, or peach flavor additions for $1. The menu also lists tequila pours from $4 to $8, depending on brand and type, and a $10 Don Julio flight.

Price comparison 1: tacos

Item	Regular menu price	Happy Hour price	Published price difference	Notes
Carnitas taco	$5.50 each	$4 each	$1.50 per taco	Same filling and description on both menus; serving weight is not listed
Pollo Asado taco	$5.50 each	$4 each	$1.50 per taco	Same name and description; serving weight is not listed
Birria taco	$5.50 each	$4 each	$1.50 per taco	Same name and description; serving weight is not listed
Any 3 standard tacos	$15.50	$12 if ordering 3 Happy Hour tacos	$3.50 per 3 by menu math	Assumes the branch permits three orders at the posted Happy Hour price; portions are not described

The regular menu lists the hand-pressed tacos for $5.50 each or any three for $15.50. The Happy Hour menu lists the same three taco names and descriptions for $4 each. That is a $1.50 difference per single taco, or a $3.50 difference if three eligible Happy Hour tacos are ordered at $12 rather than the standard $15.50 three-taco price. Serving weights are not published, so treat these as price differences between menus, not verified portion-matched savings.

For a simple budget example, two adults could order one $4 taco and one $5 Margarita each for $18 before tax and tip. Add a $5 bite and the total becomes $23, but the menu does not show bite serving sizes. Barrio Queen’s daily-specials page says deals are dine-in only and for a limited time. Alcohol is for guests 21 and older.

Food picks and price notes

Elote Ribs stand out among the $5 bites. The menu describes roasted corn with chipotle aioli, cotija cheese, Tajín, cilantro, and lime. Chicken Flautas are another $5 option, with chicken, Oaxaca cheese, avocado crema, cabbage, radishes, and pico de gallo. The online Happy Hour menu does not state the piece count or serving size for either dish, so ask if you are ordering for a group.

The standard dine-in menu has Mexican Street Corn and Roasted Elote at $9, but those are not named Elote Ribs and their presentation may differ. That is why this guide does not claim that the $5 Happy Hour dish is a direct half-price version of either regular item. Use the Happy Hour price as posted and ask about the portion if you are comparing it with an entrée or share plate.

Drink prices: standard versus Happy Hour

Drink	Regular menu price	Happy Hour price	Published price difference	Size note
Barrio Margarita	$10	$5	$5	Same drink name; glass size is not shown
Reina Sangria	$11	$5	$6	Same drink name; serving size is not shown
Draft beer	$6.50 per pint	$4 per 16 oz	$2.50	Both menus specify 16 ounces / a pint
Don Julio flight	$20	$10	$10	Both list Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo; pour sizes are not shown

The draft beer is the clearest size-matched comparison: the regular drinks menu lists a pint at $6.50, and the Happy Hour menu lists a 16-ounce draft at $4. Other rows use the same drink name or flight lineup, but the menus do not show serving volumes. Their figures are published price differences, not confirmed equal-size savings. Prices are in U.S. dollars, before tax and tip.

Sunday and late-night Happy Hour

The T1 PDF does not list a Sunday afternoon 3–6 p.m. window. For Sunday, it shows a late-night Happy Hour window from 8 p.m. until close. The same late-night banner gives Monday through Thursday 8 p.m.–close and Friday and Saturday 9 p.m.–close. The PDF does not clearly say whether the daytime bites and taco list carries over to late night. If you are going for late-night food, call first and ask which menu is available.

Both Old Town Scottsdale and Tempe are listed as closing at 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday. That means the posted late-night window lines up with the last two hours before close at each branch. Restaurant hours and Happy Hour availability can change, so check the official location page for holiday hours.

There is a gap between the posted windows. The daytime offer ends at 6 p.m. From Sunday through Thursday, late night starts at 8 p.m. On Friday it starts at 9 p.m., and Saturday has no afternoon window listed in the T1 PDF. Do not assume Happy Hour pricing runs straight through dinner.

Restaurant Week, reviews, and finding a nearby Barrio Queen

Barrio Queen has several Arizona locations, including Old Town Scottsdale and Tempe. The official menu selector assigns the T1 menu to both of those branches. It assigns a different T2 version to some other locations, so do not assume that a result for Glendale, Avondale, or Gilbert has the same schedule or prices. For Barrio Queen near you, choose your city on the official menu page and check that branch’s listing.

If you are comparing Barrio Queen Phoenix reviews, look at reviews for the specific restaurant you plan to visit. Old Town Scottsdale and Tempe have different addresses and may get different comments about waits, service, and noise. This guide uses official pages for hours and prices; it does not claim a ranking or review score. The images in this post are generated illustrations, not official Barrio Queen photos.
