TEMPE, Ariz. — A popular college bar in the Valley will close its doors at the end of December.

Devil’s Advocate Sports Grill, located near Rural Road and University Drive in Tempe, will be open through Saturday, Dec. 28, according to a Facebook post from the establishment.

The post said the law firm had made the “difficult decision” to sell its long-term lease back to the property owners and cease operations to “make way for an exciting new development project in the area”.

“It was a very difficult decision, but we are incredibly proud of everything we have accomplished at Devil’s Advocate,” Devil’s Advocate owner Jared Stetser said in the Facebook post.

The Devil’s Advocate has been a staple in ASU and Valley sports for 15 years.

“We have had the privilege of working with some truly amazing people over the years and we want to thank our incredible customers for their loyalty and support,” Stetser said in the Facebook post. “Your smiles, stories and laughter made every game day, every meal and every meeting unforgettable. You will always have a place in our hearts.”
