Downtown Phoenix's Most Visually Stimulating Cocktail Experience Yet... Tucked behind the curtains of DTPHX's Wren & Wolf, Trophy Room is an unplugged sensory elevating cocktail experience unlike anything else in the valley. Your 90-minute experience featuring awe-worthy interiors, interactive decor, floor-to ceiling decadence that tells a story with each sip and sight, and of course jaw-dropping cocktails that taste just as amazing as they look. There's just one catch – no phones or photos are allowed inside. Those who still want to get their photo-fix will have their chance in Trophy Room's lavish entryway but you'll have to check-in your phone before you head into the main cocktail room. Connect with those around you, pay attention to the details, and make memories you won't forget as we tell you a story through design and drinks of what would happen if the animals won? Trophy Room is a 21+ concept, failure to bring ID will result in denied entry and loss of prepaid deposit.
