For my husband's birthday, he requested barbecue, and a colleague of his recommended Papa Bear's…read moreBBQ. We decided to try it, and it exceeded our expectations. We ordered the Papa Bear's Sampler, which offers an excellent variety of meats along with two sides. While it is described as serving two people (or one very hearty appetite), the portion size is extremely generous. It would take quite an appetite to finish it in one sitting. The meats were tender, flavorful, and perfectly prepared, and the sides were equally impressive--especially the potato salad. In fact, the sampler provided enough food for two full meals for my husband and me. I am particularly selective about potato salad, as I have always compared it to my grandmother's recipe, and few have come close. Papa Bear's BBQ is a rare exception. In addition to the outstanding food, the staff was welcoming and attentive, and the pricing was very reasonable. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we look forward to returning.

For a recent volunteer event for Salvation Army Car Show there was the Brown Bear BBQ food truck…read more BBQ tends to be very difficult to find vegetarian options and I had hoped they had a potato salad as it's a staple to barbecue in my opinion. Though they don't serve potato salad, they do have cole slaw and allowed me to order a side which I was very appreciative. The staff were very friendly and made for a great experience. As with any food truck, the ambiance is the surroundings and it was a beautiful weathered day!

I am very happy I changed my mind. The chicken salad sandwich comes on a crossiant with two healthy slices of tomatoes and lettuce on the side. The chicken salad consists of roasted chicken, walnuts, dried cranberries and celery. This sandwich was great, it was so good. I ordered one more to take home for mama. Like I mentioned on the previous review. This place is amazing. Great live entertainment, great drinks and good food

The potato was so big I could not finish the soup and a container was offered by our waitress. Hubby had a bacon cheeseburger with fries. He liked the pickle on top of his bun. Thought it was a nice playful touch. Our waitress was attentive with drinks. What we didn't care for. The food took forever. A party of five seated after us was served before us. I understand when things go wrong or take longer. Please tell your diners why there is a hold up. I'd much prefer that than. Itching and watch people who arrived after us being served before us with similar dishes I might add. When in the area I may try again. The place has a cute country theme. However, I will probably try another establishment before I come back. If I could give 3.5 I would. They deserve that.

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 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!

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.
