Scottsdale's ORIGINAL Rib house & Honky Tonk
Handlebar J, “Scottsdale’s Original Rib House” and saloon, is one of a kind; Herndon family owned and operated since 1975… (established in 1966.) Built in the early 1960s by “Wild Bill Byrd” the original name was “Wild Bill’s”. At that time there were only a few western style saloons in North Scottsdale, since then, all the others have come and gone. In the 60’s anything north of Lincoln blvd. were tumbleweeds, rattlesnakes, and cowboys. “Wild Bill’s” was a dancehall and honky-tonk that had live music, chicken wire in front of the stage and all!

Handlebar J guests, as many of you know we spent the summer doing a lot of kitchen upgrades and repairs. This has been a daunting task. HBJ is old, the kitchen had never been remodeled. There was a lot to be repaired from ceiling to plumbing. In this process we lost some kitchen staff from the amount of cleaning and work that had to be done daily. This kitchen needed a lot! It’s taken much longer than we first thought that it would. The health department assured us that we could continue service through this process which we did to the best of our ability. We want to apologize for any inconvenience it might have caused for you during this process. The great news is we have a BEAUTIFUL, CLEAN and amazingly functional kitchen now. We still have a few minor things to do for it to be 100% completed, but it is 98% now. We are now in the process of getting our menu finalized so we can get on with our season. Again, thank you for your patience and please know, for over 40 years Handlebar J has always had “A” ratings from the health dept. and with this remodel it will help us continue that tradition! We thank you all! Join us for our 44th anniversary party October 7th.
Dear valued guests of HBJ, our apologies again for the varied changes to our menu and closing our kitchen sporadically over the past several months. The building is over 55 years old and it seems that we repaired one thing and found yet another problem that needed to be repaired before we could move on. From ceilings to old rotted plumbing. It’s been a challenge, however our construction team have dealt and persevered through it. We are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!!! Soon we can get our kitchen back up to full speed. Summer is the time we had to do this and we went for it. Again, we so much appreciate your understanding and support though this process. We hope you will come take advantage of our new all day happy hour on Tuesday and Sunday as well as enjoy the entertainment and whatever we are able to provide for food until we’re back up in full strength again soon. We love you all! Thanks so much, Ray Herndon #handlebarj #scottsdalehappyhour
