Hails is literally the sweetest bartender ever--so friendly and made me feel at home immediately :)…read moreService was top tier. And the Inferno burger??? INSANE. It's so hard to find a spicy burger that actually hits, but they absolutely nailed it. It's simple but done perfectly, and the sauces take it to another level--especially the ghost pepper sauce. I'm already craving it again.

Good pub style eatery and a huge variety of excellent beers on tap (60). They also serve premium…read morewines & specialty cocktails too! I had the Huss Scottsdale Blonde which is a local brand out of Tempe, Arizona. My husband had the Pilsner 42 which is brewed by Grand Canyon Beverage Company (AZ) in honor of Pat Tillman. NOTE- A portion of the proceeds from this beer is donated to the Pat Tillman Foundation. That's a HUGE plus! Also, this franchise is dedicated to honoring our local vets and first responders too! "First Responder Wednesdays"! *Every Wednesday, the establishment graciously presents 15% off for ALL first responders. Atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, you will feel welcome to hang around and enjoy many different beverages. Additionally, they extend crowlers of your favorite brews to purchase & take home as well. Cheese Curds appetizer was good. That's all we had here this visit. Menu had some great looking burgers & sandwiches. They have fresh salads, flatbreads and featured favorites from fish & chips to "kicking off" with some delicious starters! Eager to coming back and try one of their burgers next time! Follow them on Facebook & Instagram to find out what special events are coming up each month. Happy Hour specials & fantastic fun days are scheduled throughout the year.

Since opening, this location has been on my radar as I've both heard from locals in town and fellow…read moreYelpers that this place was great. This building seems to rotate businesses, and after trying, I really hope they remain in this location! Based on the crowd on a Wednesday night, and the lively atmosphere, I'm sure they will for years to come! MAJOR PROPS! My friend is celiac and they not just accommodated, but the manager came to speak with her who was also celiac. Hands down the BEST service in Apache Junction regarding dietary restrictions and allergies. What we ordered: - Pair of Prickly Pear Margarita: loved the sweet and slight tart flavor, definitely have another when I return. A great beverage to toast to life and catch up with a friend. - Southwest Chicken Salad (modifications to be gluten-free safe): my friend said it was delicious, and loved that she could eat with confidence after speaking with the manager - Sonoran Burger: they will only cook to medium - medium well due to a flattop, but it was still a tasty burger! Loved the toppings it came with, and a great flavor profile with those combination of ingredients. We both said we'd return and see each other once a month, so I may be back soon! Heck, plan to recommend to my dad and boyfriend as we always love supporting local.

Got bounced by a short, old, fat, bald guy (general manager? hall monitor? liquor-license…read morewhisperer?) who was clearly enjoying a personal renaissance of authority because I dared to possess half of a Dutch Bros iced coffee. This was after I explained to the absolutely lovely hostess that we were coming straight from church and hadn't had time to finish it, and she said it was fine. Apparently her authority only extended to the host stand and not to the Liquor License Enforcement Division of One Man. He came power‑strutting across the room like he'd just been alerted to a moonshine sting operation, and announced in his best I-take-myself-extremely-seriously voice: "I can't let you in here with that. We could lose our liquor license. I can't prove you don't have alcohol in it." First of all, calm down, Barney Fife. That's only if you KNOWINGLY allow alcohol to be brought in. That's not a gray area, that's literally the law. It's also a 25‑second Google, but I guess that was too much to ask during his heroic crusade against the Dutch Bros Cartel. By that logic, you should also be confiscating baby bottles, sippy cups, and Capri Suns before they bring down your entire establishment. Anyhow, yes...restaurants can have whatever policies they want. Fine. Cool. Love that for them. My issue is the tone. The delivery. The implication that we were about to reenact Prohibition-era bootlegging. Here we are: mid‑50s, with my 70‑year‑old mother‑in‑law, fresh from afternoon church at 1:00 p.m., sober as a church mouse (yes, I know I'm mixing metaphors), dressed in our Sunday best...and we're basically being treated like we're smuggling bathtub gin into a speakeasy. Sir. Please. The most dangerous thing we were carrying was iced coffee and a mild sense of optimism. So yeah...thanks but no thanks. We quietly left, caused no scene, didn't argue, didn't flip tables or quote statutes (cough, cough) A.R.S. § 4‑244, and headed to the BBQ place a half mile up the road. You know...the one that laughed when I asked if my "liquid plutonium" from Dutch Bros was going to get them shut down by the state. Unsurprisingly, the BBQ there was great! The atmosphere was relaxed. The live music was amazing. And no one felt the need to cosplay as a liquor enforcement officer on a power trip.
