Apple maps led us to this place on a road trip to Palm Springs. We were a little skeptical at first because there was no menu posted online, but so glad we came. The food was amazing. The breakfast sausages were the best part. So delicious! The only negative comment I have is the coffee. It tasted really burnt and bad, otherwise everything was perfect.

Two tacos with rice and beans.

I had a bacon breakfast Burrito. Perfect portion egg, hash brown potatoes and bacon. Hot sauce was very good as well. Good price!

Grand Avenue Brewing - Pulled Pork BBQ Stuffed Potato

Grand Avenue Brewing is my first choice when I feel like going out…read more My personal ritual is to start with a flight of 4 oz pours, which lets me sample several beers and enjoy the experience of discovering my favorite for that visit before settling in with a full glass. Happy Jack, their cream ale, is a always in my flight along with the Quad, my favorite beer of all time. The rotating seasonals keep every visit feeling fresh. What I find remarkable is that I never experience the after effects I get from commercial store bought beer. The food program is genuinely special -- house smoked BBQ, loaded baked potatoes, soft pretzels, noodle bowls, loaded mac and cheese, and green chili, with vegetarian options too. The setting -- a vintage historic warehouse in the heart of Phoenix's lower Grand Avenue arts district -- gives it a soul that's hard to find anywhere else. If you can make it on a First Friday, the live music takes the whole experience up another notch. Add in a dog-friendly patio and retail beer to go, and there's truly nothing missing. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate, and the owner is always on premises and never too busy to share a great conversation. It's no wonder Grand Avenue Brewing has been voted one of the Top 10 Breweries in Metro Phoenix. Five stars without question

The pork green chili is actual shredded pork, not the ground pork style I often got in Colorado. Belgian beer specialty but with 15+ on tap there are options for everyone. Large seating area both inside and outside.

Arizona Wilderness Brewery is hands down the best brewery in my neighborhood and my go-to spot when…read moreI want incredible food, outstanding craft beer, and a fun atmosphere. If it's your first visit, the AZ Hot Fried Chicken Sandwich is an absolute must. It's perfectly crispy with just the right amount of heat and packed with flavor in every bite. One of my favorite traditions is stopping by after work on Thursdays to take advantage of the $5 IPA special. It's the perfect way to unwind, catch up with friends, and enjoy some of Arizona's finest locally crafted beer. Whether you're there for the food, the beer, or the lively patio atmosphere, Arizona Wilderness never disappoints. If you're in the neighborhood--or even if you're not--it's well worth the visit. Highly recommended!

Came back after seeing the soft serve margaritas on all socials--on Mondays they have half off…read morecocktails all day. Made the long drive from Gilbert to see what the hype was about and let me say....that soft serve was WORTH IT! I got the swirl and it was soooooo refreshing and delicious. I have seen people comment that they were too strong (I don't see the problem or maybe some people don't really like tequila) but mine was perfect! Not strong at all. The only reason I didn't give this updated review a 5-I ordered the banh mi sando and the sandwich was so dry. Chicken was dry. The cilantro wasn't chopped I had to pick out long stems. Also I got the AZ frosè and the rosemary syrup was just way too pungent to enjoy the whole beverage. I wished it had been more balanced. Especially when the French fries are heavily seasoned with rosemary--a bit too much.

Can't believe I haven't gone sooner! The only deterrent to go back is downtown parking…read more We sat outside since inside was freezing! Outside is just as high class and wonderfully decorated as the inside. We even got a couch booth and got to sit next to each other. We did the summer special which was the best special I've ever seen. $60 per person and you get a generous glass of wine, app, entree, and dessert. We both got the curried corn bisque for the app and my oh my I greatly enjoyed this even on a hotter day. The Smokey popcorn was a nice textural addition and the soup was so flavorful, the curry definitely shined through! We also both got the fried chicken for entrees; how could I not order the gluten free fried chicken!? Yes, naturally gluten free! This was outstanding. I'm not sure what the coating is, but it was so so flavorful and so crispy, and the chicken still so juicy. I could eat that on its own. The pepper jems were a cute touch! The mashed potatoes were so creamy. The chicken was placed on top of them so the bottom of the chicken did get soggy so my one suggestion is to place the chicken to the side, but the coating did rub into the potatoes which added some more flavor. The green beans were also tasty, nothing special, but the pistachio butter elevated it (nothing else needed the pistachio butter, not sure what else you use it for). I had a chocolate cake for dessert, the only gluten free dessert they offered me, but I still appreciate the option. It was just okay. The cake was dense and a little dry and didn't scream rich chocolate. There was a chocolate mousse layered in which helped. My boyfriend had some sort of strawberry cake mousse thing with layers of many different things - he thought it okay, I tried the mousse part and really liked it. We had red wine and it was delicious! The service was great, very attentive and they packed some ice in a cup for me because we weren't going home after!
