Challenger Tap House was a wonderful experience. The hamburger was very good, full of flavor, cooked just right, and clearly made with care. The onion rings were also delicious, crispy on the outside and perfectly satisfying. Everything tasted fresh and enjoyable. It is always such a pleasure to find a place that serves simple food so well. Challenger Tap House delivered a meal that was comforting, flavorful, and worth coming back for. I would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a good burger and excellent onion rings. read more

My wife and I come to Challenger Taphouse pretty often, and it's easily one of our favorite spots to grab a bite and relax. The food is always amazing. They have some really unique options that you don't see everywhere, like the brisket quesadilla (which is packed with flavor) and the Philly cheesesteak fries are seriously next-level comfort food. Everything we've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. They also have a huge beer selection, which is a big plus. There's always something new to try. I don't usually go for cocktails, but their drink menu is solid overall, and my wife has really enjoyed the cocktails she's ordered. One thing that really stands out is the staff. The servers and bartenders clearly know what they're doing and they're attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and always make great recommendations. The manager is also very friendly and welcoming, which adds to the overall positive experience. The atmosphere is another reason we keep coming back. It's a fun environment whether you're there to watch a game or just hang out and unwind. Great energy without feeling overwhelming. If you're looking for a place with great food, a wide beer selection, and a fun, laid back vibe with excellent service, Challenger Taphouse is definitely worth checking out. We'll absolutely keep coming back! read more

Great service, delicious food and great variety of drinks. Great place to watch Dodgers games. Cool ambience.

I can't say enough great things about Challenger Tap House! The food is always amazing ,every single time I go, it's fresh, flavorful, and hits the spot. The drinks never miss either. Whether you're in the mood for something classic or something a little more creative, they absolutely nail it. One thing that really stands out is the manager ,he is always present, greeting customers and making sure everyone is taken care of. You can tell he genuinely cares about the experience, and it shows. I go there often and have honestly never had a single issue and that kind of consistency is hard to find! Alex is an amazing server! She is attentive, friendly, and always on top of everything without making you feel rushed. And bartender Miranda? She's always making the best drinks. You can tell she truly knows her craft. The vibe is always great , lively, welcoming, and fun. It's the perfect spot for date night, boys' night, or girls' night. No matter the occasion, Challenger Tap House delivers every time. Highly recommend! read more

So I did not want to write this review, but I had to it shows consistency. I've been to this restaurant before, and my daughter said that she was going to it again, and I remembered that they had southwestern eggrolls, and I asked her to give me some cause I've been really craving southwestern eggrolls and the last time I was here they made them excellent. Well, let me tell you now. The only good thing about it was the sauce. They were terribly overcooked greasy and just plain nasty. I can't believe that they sent this out like this. I'm very disappointed, but I'm not shocked. It's hard to get good help these days. I hope the next time I go and I order southwestern egg rolls they don't look like this, but the sauce is good. read more

1 start service ! it's 4:17 PM my actual birthday happy birthday to me and we were totally ignored for the first 12 minutes of sitting at the bar. No one offered a water a napkin a menu nothing I was caught with the two bartenders, but they just refused to acknowledge us for. Hey is there anything that we need? African American they were Latina and it was obvious our kind was not wanted. Disgusting. read more

We stopped here on the way from Palm Springs to Fresno hoping for a good meal and to catch some NFL games. The decor in the place, including even the men's bathroom was really nice. The bar and dining area was open and roomy and they had every single NFL game playing on their 10 plus TV's. The server came out quickly and asked us about drinks and food. The beer cheese sliders were very good and you can't ever go wrong with tater tots. Also good were the Buffalo chicken fries. The southwestern chicken egg rolls were awesome and reminded me of a higher end version of what you can get at Chili's. All in all, the place was great and we were able to get fed and back on the road in under 40 minutes. read more

They deserve it! read more

This place has been on my radar for a while...I wont be back. Had the pretzel and cheese that I admit was very good. The cheese had the perfect amount of spice to it and the pretzel was perfectly cooked. Now on to the meal...ehhh.... The putine was not your average putine. This putine had an au jus NOT gravy like normal putine. Decided to add duck which I thought it was going to be shredded duck not cubed cut up duck. The fries were soggy cause of the au jus unlike gravy which doesn't make it soggy. I asked for scrambled eggs and they gave me a fried egg. The wings were big but overly over cooked and they admitted they cook them twice or three times. The bread pudding as you can see was also over cooked and burnt. You could actually taste the char. So I asked for another piece NOT burnt. I will not be coming back. read more

The food is delicious. The service is great.. Very friendly. Very relaxing to just hang out with friends and watch sports. Lots of sitting inside. And is kid friendly, they even have a kids menu. And they also have NFL food specials. Which is great. They are getting ready to start servicing breakfast soon. The restaurant is under new management and I'm very impressed.. I highly recommend this place.. My husband said nothing better to have a Bloody Mary with Breakfast. read more

Came here two Friday's in a row just for the fish and chips. The staff is unbelievably friendly, and the service is amazing! Fish and chips are light and crispy and so fresh! The wings are also a must try. Garlic parm and Buffalo is the way to go! Zairel was our server for both Friday's and she was on top of it! She had such a great energy. Will definitely be back. read more

Miranda best AV bartender/server. Very attentive , respectful, prompt, friendly and very beautiful.

The food is inconsistent. But it is convenient and close to my home. My girlfriend and I would like to come here. One negative I can say, however, is their menu is printed with ridiculously tiny letters. read more

Just your friendly neighborhood foodie coming at you with a GREAT food option: Challenger Tap House Bar & Grill. If you like your food delicious, local and with an eclectic variety, you would LOVE this place! Kid friendly, full bar, and great food. I ordered the Garlic Frites and Fresh house-made hummus with pita chips. I ate myself into a stupor and need a nap. It was quiet when I came in on a Wednesday at 3 pm. The staff are GREAT! The bar tender was A+ with her customer service. I also saw her serve a new-hire a fresh iced-water after warmly greeting her. The new-hire walked in and only said "I'm here for training." Treating your staff good enough for them to treat their peers good is half of a great business. read more

This review is literal years in the making as we first ordered from Challenger Tap House at the height of the pandemic. Granted all of our experiences have been via delivery service (Grubhub, etc), we really have tried to like this place but simply cannot. Over the 6ish times we've ordered from here it's just really not been a good experience. Wanted to like this place, really! And kept down-playing it by telling ourselves "maybe it is just an off night". No, not an off night. Chalk it all up to consistent garbage. From a fingernail in my burger to a dessert that tastes like dog food, Nashville chicken sandwich that doesn't have the foggiest idea or hat this kind of dish should taste like, to wins that are strangely over-fried, there is A LOT to about. Truly the only food that is decent here are the fries (not the lazy arse "poutine", just the plain fries under the cheese and the generic gravy). Perhaps the restaurant experience is better, but I really wouldn't go with high hopes, especially for the food. And the neighborhood/location is TERRIBLE. Keep your head on a swivel. read more

Love the laid back vibes in here. Super clean and nice in the inside. Love the space themed cocktails. The wings are 10/10 and hear me out the fish tacos 12/10!!!! Service was great, friendly, attentive, and never rushing you! Tons and tons of beer and TV's!!! read more

The food and service are one of the best if not the best in the AV. The only thing is that on some Fridays there's a live band & the vibe with the jukebox is way better. The band is a bit too loud where you can't have a conversation. They play for hours not just 1 or two. Other than that, amazing spot. read more

I was definitely surprised, the outside of the establishment doesn't look like much but inside was a different story! I had an amazing chicken sandwhich along with mac & cheese. WOW! It's a classic dish but the bar used ingredients which elevated it nicely. Keep in mind it's more of a bar than a restaurant. Our server was great & I can't wait to go back! read more

Poor customer service. Never got any updates for our food. Took forever for our food to come out and other customers who got here about 40 minutes later got their appetizers earlier than us. Totally ruined our appetite Zero Stars read more

The food is YUMMY! I've been here a few times and have tried different things and it's always delicious! I absolutely cannot stand their lighting as it's very obnoxious and bright...seems strange to me. I guess the food makes up for it. Instead of just having music that everyone can enjoy, they seem to have a jukebox of sorts. where the workers in the back like to come play their obnoxious music. I could definitely do without that. I guess they're trying to get you out of your seat and go spend your money on the music if you don't like it! Just make sure you have lots of people with you that you can talk to to drown out the "music". We had great service, and the food came quickly. P.S. You've got to try the delicious garlic fries! read more

I used to love it here, but I've started noticing the way they work. The owner is now the "security" and they're having 12 year olds have private parties inside. In a private room, during Covid. It's not even that nonchalant. Their waters and waitresses suck. They're lost. They don't know what drinks are what or what to serve. Kind of just walk around like a chicken with its head cut off. It's so un inviting Tap house, u were cool. Get your shit together and redeem yourself. read more

My fiance and I came here with her mother and father for a late lunch and it was very busy. But Sean handled the to-go orders and a few tables efficiently and very professionally. I appreciated his quickness and thoroughness in taking our orders and when we wanted what. On top of some great customer service, the food was excellent as well. The Buffalo Chicken Fries were a particular favorite with their Hummus coming just behind it. Hope to come back around soon. read more

Stopped in for a Modelo Michelada and found a hidden gem worth tasting. American casual dining is usually far from memorable, not today folks, not today. With outdoor seating (Covid 19) available to sit down, I found myself asking the server (Lucia) to let the Chef pick my poison. Pick he did. Sautéed pepper, caramelized onions, greens, bacon, cheese, buttery bun and omg California sauce. Oozing at a medium cook and not overly seasoned, the patty only complimented the rest of the sandwich. This is the kind of burger I would gift as a wedding present to my heart healthy dieting brother. Delicious. Fries are fried and booze is booze. Service was stellar, above and beyond, and my overall experience was excellent. Come in and check them out, I was far from disappointed and will gladly be back again. read more
