History:
Bourbon Jacks building was once known as the Arrow Pharmacy building, which was built in 1918, by David A. Jacobson. This building has, until recently, continually housed the Arrow Pharmacy since the time it was built. Jacobson leased the property to John B. "Doc" Weber, the town's favorite pharmacist, who operated Weber's Arrow Pharmacy for years. Despite being only a pharmacist, they called him "Doc" because he would often tend to their more basic medical needs. Children with scraped knees would stop in and Weber would bandage them up. Kids often stopped here for a Coca-Cola, which only cost a nickel.
A 1924 ad for the Arrow Pharmacy in the Chandler Arizonan boasted "Our soda fountain service is unexcelled. Our soft drinks made famous by Weber's Arrow Root Beer." In 1948, the building was combined with the Reliable Hardware building next door. It has had many owners through the years. After over 85 years of service to the Chandler community, the doors closed for the first time in July 2005. In fall 2006, a remodeling project began on the combined Arrow Pharmacy and Reliable Hardware buildings. In the summer of 2012 Bourbon Jacks found it's home in the building and opened its doors to the great community of Chandler.
