Halfway through the line to grab a beer. Terrible ordering system; took over 20 minutes
Mikaela C.

We've been to this location quite a few times, but it's been a few years since our last visit. We popped in for some ice cold beers after the Route 66 100 Year Centennial Car Cruise and Show a few weeks back. The space still has that nice rustic charm with plenty of seating inside and outside on their nice patio. Ordering, however, has changed. Beers, cocktails, nonalcoholic beverages, cans to-go, and food is all ordered up at the bar. There was 1 lone employee working the bar; taking orders, pouring beers, mixing cocktails, and closing people out at the register. This was so incredibly inefficient, particularly on such a busy day. I stood in line 3 separate times (once to initially order two pints, a second time to order a flight of other beers we wanted to taste, and a final time to purchase two cans to-go and close out my tab); each time in line took between 15-25 minutes. The girl behind the bar was very friendly and she was working as quickly as possible while maintaining a relatively happy attitude, but boy did I feel bad for her. Management really messed this up; someone needed to step in and help. With such a big celebration in town that day, there needed to be a minimum of 3 employees manning the bar to take orders and get drinks. As for the beer itself, as usual it's just average. Great if you're looking for something cold to enjoy, but not memorable if you're a craft beer nerd. We went in knowing what the quality would be, but still wanted to try all the new beers since we hadn't been in a couple of years. We didn't eat while there, but in the past when we have, the food is good. The knock of two stars was simply for the horrible management of orders. I don't know when they decided to get rid of waiters and put all the pressure onto the bartender, but geez what an awful decision that was.

Awesome pizza, beer, and service. Got the Hog pizza and a few local IPA beers. We sat on the patio. It was really relaxing. This brewery is connected to an Italian restaurant. Not sure if it's the same owner. Regardless, has a nice ambiance and atmosphere. I like it here and would come back.

It's an odd set up in that there's just a barrel at the front that says order at the bar. The bartender must be used to confused tourists because he had to explain to find your own table inside or out, get your own drinks if it's not alcoholic and order with him. After ordering you just put your number on your table. The Caesar salad wasn't romaine but instead field greens served on a pie pan. The pizza was descent but there are better options one street over. One and done for us but if you don't mind this type of restaurant it might be for you.

The food was good but I found the menu to be limited. The staff was friendly with a great patio for a nice relaxing evening. The portions were large in my opinion and want expecting that.

Took a while for the single person working there to come over to us. But she was great and could answer all my questions! Beer was good, I think I didn't pick right. A lot of their stuff seemed hoppy even if it was labeled as not. Their salt and lime beer is a keeper!!!

We were greeted with a smile and received help with what we might like to try from the menu, we decided to try the Route 66 sliders. They were delicious. The restaurant has a fun atmosphere. I would recommend it!

The pizza and wings here were delicious! We walked in, found a table, ordered at the bar, and didn't wait too long for the food. We all ordered a cocktail and they were also good. Service was good and the inside was clean. The building is cool looking as it is realllly old.... I wonder if it is haunted.

Cool spot, beers on tap, tasty food, skeeball, and a mini shooting range. Couldn't ask for more! Also loved the music selection playing while we sipped on cold beers. Make sure you order at the bar before you sit down. You can leave your tab open. The fried zucchini were a massive portion and great for sharing. The pulled pork was enough to share as well. Sweet bbq sauce went well with the pork and the fries were nice a crispy. The inside of the building is very cool looking too.

(+) Tourist here. Took the train ride, round trip. Arrived back from the Grand Canyon and we already planned to have dinner in Williams. Short walk from the train station, we thought a brewery would have something for the adults and kids. We were not disappointed at all, and that's not because of low expectations or that we were really hungry. (+) Simply order and pay at the bar. Solid menu. (+) The number of beers on tap were plentiful and delicious. I recommend ordering a flight to sample up to 6 and find what you like most! (+) Pizza was good, pulled pork sandwich also good, and the servers were nice and willing to bring us extra sauce and dressing when requested. (+) Ambiance was chill, not too rowdy or loud and crowded on the Wednesday night we visited. The large square table seated our group of 9 and we enjoyed a great meal to cap off a wonderful visit to Williams and the Grand Canyon.

This brewery was great. Atmosphere was good, great music, staff is so friendly, food is great and the beers were tasty. Heather was a great bartender.

Great dog friendly patio across from the train station. You order from the bar and they bring your food out to you. The pizza was ok but the cheesy bread was so good. Fun place in Williams for a quick bite with the family.

Road-trip to Grand Canyon. Decided to stay overnight at Williams so that the drive and day at Grand Canyon is not to long. One of restaurants that is open late in Williams. Really good bar food and the ipa/beers were pretty good. We got a beer sampler including the ale. They have to go options too. Sat outside to enjoy the fresh air. Ordered at the bar and food was delivered pretty quick. Bar has also good selection of merchandise. Highly recommend getting a drink with the bar food. Can't go wrong the Buffalo wings and pizza.

The setup is counter-service, and one thing that caught me off guard was being asked to choose whether we wanted to sit upstairs or downstairs before we'd even seen either area. I picked upstairs, but after getting up there, I probably would have preferred downstairs. The upstairs bar was closed, which made the space feel a little empty. Food-wise, everything was just... mid. I ordered the Smokehouse Burger with fries. The burger itself was fine, but there wasn't much flavor. The pulled pork on top was absolutely drenched in BBQ sauce that tasted like it came straight from a grocery store bottle, and it completely overpowered everything else. The fries arrived room temperature and bland. I ended up covering them in salt and dipping them in ketchup, which I rarely do. My boyfriend ordered the Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese. The mac and cheese didn't taste fresh, wasn't very hot, and was lacking flavor. The chicken was decent, and the bread on the side was okay, but nothing stood out. The one thing I really did enjoy was the theming. The restaurant fits the Bearizona atmosphere well, and I appreciated the rustic lodge feel. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting. The ingredients felt low quality, and there wasn't any exceptional service to make up for it. If we visit Bearizona again, we'll probably eat in town before heading to the park. I'm glad we tried it once, but once was enough.

Kitschy brewery and restaurant with amazing service and food…read more Server was great at answering our questions and pointing us in the right direction when it came to their food and drinks. I had a smoky old fashioned to start my night and I kept going back to how great it smelled and how smooth the taste was. I chose to have it with their own house bourbon. Food wise, we went with their Canyon Tacos and shared an order of tots. The frybread was crispy and pillowy, the meat was very well seasoned and the pickled red onion really brought the whole dish together. The tots were nice and crispy without being too oily. The place itself was like walking into Williams itself. Lot of wood and mountain core decor with a small creek/wishing fountain. The front part of the place is where you'll find their gift shop. There is also some games upstairs. And they sell their beers and spirits. This is a great place to spend a few hours.

First off, I want…read moreto commend the poor staff that has to work here...They do such a good job, for such a crappy establishment. Every single time I come in here, the food has another dollar added to the price, or.. heaven forbid you want French fries with your cheeseburger. You can absolutely forget about it, it's al a carte my boy. That is French for- that'll be an extra 6$. Also, their "avacado" for an additional 3$ is nothing more than a prison spoon scoop full of mashed up avocado spread on to one bun about as thick a Peasley Pubic hair. Lastly, you'd think for how much they charge, you would be able to eat your food without expiring in sweat or needing goggles for my brow being absolutely drenched trying to eat my 26$ cheeseburger al a carte. Thanks guys, I also had to hit the bathroom directly on the way out. BTW - you need a plumber to come out the toilets barely flush! And I will finish with this. That is not a sour beer, that's an ipa with vinegar in it. You cured the hops 3 weeks too long.

In my opinion, it's the best steakhouse in town and easily one of the best restaurants in Williams. We've eaten here several times, and it never disappoints. My son swears they make the best hamburger around, and I can't resist their sweet glazed jalapeños--they're the perfect balance of sweet with just the right kick. The lamb chops are absolutely outstanding, and the filet was cooked to a flawless medium-rare, exactly as ordered. One thing we always look forward to is their Christmas tree that's decorated year-round. It's such a fun, unique touch that makes the restaurant feel extra welcoming. Whether you're staying at the Best Western or one of the many nearby hotels, it's incredibly convenient and well worth a visit. Great food, cozy atmosphere, and consistently delicious meals make this a must-stop every time we're in Williams. We'll definitely keep coming back!
