Padre Murphy’s Sportsbook Review

Padre Murphy’s Sportsbook

Padre’s Murphy’s is part of the horse racing and sports betting network of Arizona Downs. As a result, coverage of horse and greyhound racing is comprehensive. You will find several self-serve betting kiosks in addition to tellers who will help set up your desired bet.

In addition, you can watch live sports games and bet on your favorite basketball, baseball, and football events, among others. While we were there, the Suns and Cardinals received the lion’s share of television coverage. However, with over 90 screens scattered throughout the place, you will also be able to catch big clashes from the NBA, MLB and NFL.

• Airport Shuttle

  Unfortunately, Padre Murphy’s does not provide a shuttle service from the airport, so you would have to arrange your own trip. Cabs are usually lined up outside the main entrance of the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Local cab fares are around $2.50 per mile, so getting there won’t cost too much.

• Parking

  Some may find Padre Murphy’s car park a bit tight on space, but you can always take advantage of the car boxes in Glendale. However, note that they’re not in the immediate vicinity of the venue, as they are co-shared by all shops. You should also note that there’s no valet parking.

About Padre Murphy’s Hotel

Unfortunately, there is no hotel on the premises, but the venue has been treating local sports fans and people from all walks of life to great food, craft beer and cocktails, sports, and off-track betting for many years. A curious fact about it is that it’s named after an Irish priest.

He was a close friend of the owner, Tom Boyle, who joked that he would name a restaurant after him. As it turned out, he opened a sportsbook instead of a restaurant in 1993. Despite this, he kept his promise, and nowadays, this Irish-style sports bar is one of the most popular betting venues near Phoenix.
