TL;DR - service and ribs made up for underwhelming aspects of an overall satisfying visit. This is a nice place - probably a 3 star, but it had enough redeeming qualities that it earned a four star. Upon entry, it was confusing: half the place is a bar, and half is family-friendly; however, there's no signage to indicate whether you seat yourself or wait to be seated. We got there around the same time as a large family got there, so we were just waiting around on the door mat, waiting dumbly. We had to wait for quite a while and there were plenty of empty tables that we could see. Once seated, however, it was nice. Our server was the paramount of cheery welcome. The beer samples are very affordable (like 0.50), so I got one of each beer on tap - all from Vernal Brewing Company (which was closed because Sunday). That said, there were only 3 sampling glasses - I think our server decided not to charge us for the 8 samples. Then, we got grilled cheese and Mac and cheese meals for the kids, 1/4 rack of ribs with side salad and fries. The grilled cheese came on Texas toast (read: thick), the Mac and cheese looked a lot like Kraft white cheddar. The fries were tough (either overcooked or stale before cooked), but they tasted really good, so they ended up being a highlight. The side salad was a bowl full of lettuce with an assortment of toppings sectioned on top (sliced tomatoes, whole olives, cheese, onions, cucumber, pepperoncini) overall, not bad, but without the space to mix the greens and/or mix it with the dressing, it was unwieldy. We ended up deconstructing and taking bites of lettuce dipped in blue cheese. The ribs were phenomenal - well cooked (juicy and tender but falling off the bone). The price we paid, however was less than optimal for a somewhat underwhelming salad and overdone fries (also, kids meals got more fries than the quarter rack of ribs). Overall, we had a big hiking day before evening rain, so it hit the spot. Would try again, though there may be other, more value-for-the-dollar places to check out if you're in Vernal on a Sunday. read more

Not the best burger, not the worst Burger. Hit the spot after a long day on the via ferrata And the prices are reasonable. read more

Being the only non-chain open on a Sunday, we were really hoping the other reviews were exaggerated. Nope, spot on. The service was not great, never seeing our waitress again after food was dropped off. Literally, not once again. Food was ok, not great. Did mess up one order. The FRIES SUCK. All the reviews about this are correct. Also, side note, a business should never post its political affiliation. read more

Very nice restaurant. Lots of large family tables, clean facility. Food was good- had some sort of issue with the pizza oven that delayed part of our order, but compensated with a couple of free desserts. The beer was good- a very balanced selection for all beer preferences. Very friendly, accommodating staff. read more

Tell the owner that the new fries are SHIT. The staff is awesome. The food is awesome, with the exception of the fries. They used to have amazing hand cut french fries. Now they have Sysco Food Service, school cafeteria bullshit. read more

Visiting on vacation from TX, this is one of my favorite hometown restaurants that I come for mainly the fries. Was very upset when they brought out non homemade fries. Not even good enough to eat any of the store bought fries. The French dip was amazing as all ways as well as the service! The environment was also add good as alway. Very disappointing when I got my fries :/ read more

I'd give them four stars but having Trump signs all over three months after his attack on our capital and elections is a big turn-off for me. Only one high point craft IPA, their 50 Caliber @ 8.2 abv. Utah says you have to buy food but all their appetizers are fryer food. Another star gone. Otherwise decent service and prices. read more

Stayed in Vernal for the night so hit this place up. First off, the service was great! And they have the local draft beers available to sample for 1¢ each. We tried eight different ones and found three we really liked. My burger was excellent- cooked medium rare as I requested. It was messy though lol. Definitely recommend the waffle fries. Would come here again next time we come through Vernal. read more

Food was subpar at best and is greatly overpriced. They ran out of chicken fingers, so I've decided to get tacos instead. The ground beef lacked flavor; just had a pure beef flavor. Our server wasn't incredibly attentive. She only came over to take our orders and give us our food. The only decent food they had was their salsa, fries, and ranch. Not worth going back. read more

Amazing food and service! The waitress was very prompt and the food came out quick and hot. The sweet potato fries and philly steak sandwich was delicious! They are kid friendly. My daughter loved her food. The decor was fun and the place was nice and clean. read more

Went to this place after some golf. I had the Cowboy burger. A friend had the Fish & Chips. Both were excellent!! Love finding little hidden gems like this! read more

Went there tonight to get burger and a beer. I've been going to this place for a couple years now. I get lunch for my crew there pretty regularly and drop $500-600 per meal. Not anymore. I went in to order and told the waitress I would like to sit on the back patio. She said "I'm not serving you out there. It's raining." It wasn't raining. Also the back patio is covered. I explained as much, then she yelled at me, "I'm not serving you out there. Sit inside." I left, and I took the thousands and thousands of my employer's dollars that I would have spent in this place in the future with me. I will never darken the door of this establishment again unless that waitress is fired. read more

would like more options on the menus but service was good food was bland and stale not great service

Just ok. They were out of many things, particularly drafts...we struck out on our first 3 requests and finally settled for cans. Food was so-so. I had a black bean burger that was super dry. Hubby had a regular burger that he said was good. Our sever was super nice, hence 3 stars instead of 2. read more

Nothing great or amazing, just another dive bar basically with fair food. Service was terribly slow waited 15 mins for someone to approach our table we seated ourselves. 6 staff just "hanging out" in the back laughing and joking obviously could care less about customers, establishment was not busy at all only 4 other tables with customers. The beer was good and the only thing to speak of because it came from the brewery behind the building. Burgers where frozen patties and over cooked. Fries where under cooked and mushy. Oh and they up charge $3.00 for sweet potato fries and if you want Cajun seasoning on regular fries upcharge that server didn't bother mentioning while taking orders. Save yourself some money and upset stomach from a bad meal and just go to the brewery to try their beers. They we're closed on Sunday thus why we came here to try the beer. read more

One place open late in vernal on a Sunday! Typical burger and beer joint. Had all the local brewery brews available. Service was speedy and efficient. Burgers were also large for the price! Tried the brew Haus burger which was surprisingly tasty and unique! Green chili burger had a nice spicy bite to it. Overall nice little joint but nothing too crazy. read more

Fried pickles were the table favorite. They were amazing! The green Chile burger was huge and delicious. Salsa was a bit too smoky for me but my husband loved it. Daughter devoured the Mac n cheese bites. A small order was more than enough for her meal. The fries were homemade delicious. read more

Here on vacation. Was excited to see an open pub in Utah. Great selection of local beer on tap (FYI ABV of Utah beer is generally low ~ 4%). They have samples available so you can try before you commit on a pint... or a pitcher. My favorite beer was the jalapeño "She's on Fire" which was awesome. The servers were great and all were willing to help each other's tables so service was great. Burgers can be cooked to order and mine was a perfect medium rare. I will definitely eat here again. read more

This is a decent place for the small town. Feels divey and is similar to a bar but you don't need to show ID. The portions are pretty good for the price but the burger itself was just so so. I ordered the mushroom and Swiss and although left full it was not the top quality I was after. The cross cut fries were bomb though. Way better than the fries. read more

Great place with options for everyone! Great appetizer choices, good food, and even a veggie burger or meat substitute burger for vegetarians or vegans. The best fries and great fry sauce. The staff was very friendly and did a fantastic job read more

Awesome service. Burgers are excellent, and beer is just a good. Awesome stop on our trip to dinosaur national park.

Don't let the Yelp reviews fool you. 300+ Google Reviews at 4.5 stars are the truth. Fast service, good burger/fries, and Vernal Brewing is 100 feet away so the beer is as fresh as Utah can deliver. read more

This place has friendly people working there and super tasty food. There are peanuts on the tables, several tv's showing the current game and loads of redneck decor. Clearly this isn't the fanciest place in Vernal, nor does it pretend to be. We saw enough camouflage in than we've ever seen on the other patrons. I arrived with three hungry little girls and a husband with fairly selective tastebuds. We ordered the wings and fries appetizer. The wings were spicy with loads of sauce on them. The fries were fresh and crispy. Then, we all ordered burgers, except the 4 year old, who had a corn dog...she loved the peanuts and fries so much that she barely touched her corn dog. No biggie. A corn dog is a corn dog is a corn dog. I don't eat bread, so I asked the waitress if they could make the burger with a lettuce wrap and it was no problem. The burger was delicious...I would have wanted it a bit pink in the center, but the waitress never asked. If you like your burgers a bit more rare, speak up! My husband and I both ordered onion rings with our burgers--best decision ever! Those rings were some of the best I've tasted...and I've had a lot of them since they are my favorite. The bathrooms at this place are a bit dicey and clearly an afterthought. We were appalled at how teensy they were...the women's bathroom looks like it belongs in an old trailer. The sink was about the size of a laptop. Seriously. But, there was hot water, so at least there's that. Plus, you don't go to a restaurant for the bathrooms now, do you? We will definitely come back to this place. Great stop after a long hike. read more

I hate leaving bad reviews, but sometimes the establishment leaves no choice. In this instance, I'm not reviewing the food, as we walked out before even ordering. We came in, and they were busy, and a waitress said to sit anywhere. The only table available was bussed but still dirty. I sat there for about 15 minutes before a waitress came over. She asked if we were ready to order, and I asked if she wouldn't mind finishing cleaning the table before ordering. She snarkly remarked under breath "why didn't we sit at a clean table." She then wiped the table, and I'm not kidding here, she hurriedly swept the table dirt onto my lap. She then walked away without taking our order. Our party walked out after that. read more

The food was quite good, and the waitress was very attentive to us. Halfway through my meal, I noticed the Trump flag on the wall. Suddenly I started to wonder if they would be as nice to my dark-skinned loved ones as they were to me. I couldn't wait to settle up and get out. I guess I'm glad they showed me who they are, but I'll take my money elsewhere while we are in town. read more

Everyone giving poor ratings based on political motivations are pathetic. Support the first amendment and base reviews on service and price. If that's too difficult to understand maybe keep your mouth shut. read more

Great food! Good beer, nice patio. We shared a Fish dinner and there was plenty of food for the two of us. The Beer batter Fish was very good. I'd order it again. I loved that the patio was pet friendly. We were traveling through with our dog and didn't have to leave her in the car. Service was slow but friendly I can't wait to come back. read more

Nice staff. Seat yourself dining with a pool table. Kinda a "happening" place. Great French dip.
