Ribs
Matthew L.

I've been to this place twice, and plan on coming back more. They have a summer special $6 margaritas and $8 old fashions. Can't beat that price! The chicken wings were so big I could not fit them in the ranch container, they were breaded and cooked well! Instead of carrots and celery they give you pickles and cooked carrots that I liked better. The ribs, burgers, nachos, and pizza were all good.

Knockout burger
Sara M.

Thanks to Yelp, our group discovered this hidden gem and enjoyed a fabulous meal celebrating my brother-in-law's cancer remission. Gigi was incredibly sweet, friendly, and attentive. She went out of her way to give us her best and is truly excellent at what she does! The brunch menu was fantastic, offering a great mix of both breakfast and lunch options, and everything we tried was delicious. My husband and I split the knockout burger, and WOW--it was amazing! The meat was flavorful, the bun was soft, and the crispy sidewinder fries were the perfect complement. The service was flawless, and the spot itself is absolutely charming, tucked into a lovely area of Camelback.

Restaurant Owner Andi!

We had the best experience at Orchard Tavern. We sat down and ordered and long after was greeted by Andy. He was hilarious and made our experience so fun. (He would say he was obnoxious ;) ) Food was great and came out quickly. Drinks was great. The place was viby and relaxing. And the tax made our experience so fun. We will definitely be back!

First time at Orchard Tavern -- it's definitely out of our usual bubble, but absolutely worth the trip! We love their other spot, Luci's, which is closer to us, so we were excited to finally try this one. We did a hike nearby and stopped in for lunch. I had the burger with fig and goat cheese -- what a great pairing! And the cookie skillet for dessert was absolutely delicious. My husband had the nachos and loved them. The cocktail menu is wonderful too -- we both had one and were impressed with the options. Our server was great, and the outdoor seating is really top notch. Definitely coming back!

French Dip
Jenn N.

I've been to Orchard Tavern twice now: once for dinner and once for happy hour and both times were solid experiences. This one of those places that if you didn't know about it, you would totally miss it and because it's hidden in uptown area neighborhood. The first time I had the French dip and it was huge. Like actually huge. But more importantly, it was flavorful and not dry, which is my biggest complaint with most French dips. The au jus was perfect with it. I went back for happy hour and tried the mimosa flight, which was honestly just fun. Good variety, not watered down, and perfect for sitting on the patio and relaxing for a bit. The patio has a cozy vibe and the service has been easy and friendly both times. It's just a dependable spot that does what it's supposed to do: good food, good drinks, and good atmosphere. I'll be back.

Great place for a nice outdoor lunch! The high chairs for kids are really nice and cool and very unique we appreciated this- super great for little ones to dine at! My chicken pot pie was very yummy and I loved the veggie charcuterie platter. Jack was very kind and attentive. Great ambiance.

Second trip in and still loving this place. Vince was our server/bartender, and he crushed it. He opened with a disclaimer that he was new (bold move), but honestly, you'd never know, the service was on point. Thanks, Vince! Bonus: it was the first glorious day under 95 degrees, so obviously patio seating was the move. Drinks Woodford Sour - This is the primary reason I keep coming back. Proper whiskey sour with egg white, none of that neon mixer nonsense. Still the best whiskey sour in the valley, fight me. Kona Cactus - Tequila, coconut, lime, pineapple, pineapple foam, li hing. A lot going on here, but somehow it works. The pineapple foam is the MVP. I could honestly eat a bowl of it. Light, sweet, fluffy pineapple goodness finishing off the drink perfectly. Mai Tai - My first one ever, and turns out it's basically a margarita in rum's clothing. Not bad, just underwhelming after those first two. Food Steak & Eggs - The 10 oz NY strip was absolute perfection. Medium, exactly as ordered, beautifully seasoned, and so tender you almost didn't need the knife. The chimichurri-style sauce wasn't just an accent, it was the exclamation point on a perfect steak. This steak honestly outshined everything else on the table and could've carried the whole meal by itself. The eggs were fine after a DIY salt-and-pepper rescue, but let's be real, the steak was the headliner and everything else was just the opening act. Bacon? Fantastic, but so rich one piece is plenty. Cheddar chive biscuit? Exactly what you want with a steak breakfast. Schreiner's sausage + mushroom gravy tasted good but had a little raw flour sweetness hanging around. Still, it paired nicely with the biscuit. Overall, another win. A couple of minor misses, but when you've got steak this good and whiskey sours this perfect, who cares? This place just keeps delivering.

Espresso martini was Delicious!

I had amazing first visit at Orchard Tavern. Will definitely be going back many more times. The ambience was beautiful! The food was yummy and the drinks were fantastic! What made it even better was the staff. The bartender lived there as a child and the waitresses were great. The manager, Andy, was hilarious and shared some lovely stories. Looking forward to sitting outside when weather gets cooler in AZ!

First time here! It was a group of 6 of us. When coming be prepared to walk , parking gets full quickly. We ended up having to park in the nearby neighborhood. The food was yummy , cute ambiance. Staff was okay, they forgot drink orders and never brought them... that was annoying. Other than that I would go again. I especially want to try the place next door , similar menu but different and free outside sitting. We initially wanted to go there but it was harder for me to hold a table for a big party by myself while everyone else was looking for parking.

Hatch Burger and rings
Dawn M.

Just an update to my review a year ago. I still love this place. Charitye is the whole package as a bartender and front facing employee. She is welcoming, accommodating, and has an awareness of customer's needs that you just can't teach. Tonight we both had burgers and they were delicious. The fries or onion rings are both a solid choice. So glad to have the Orchard in the neighborhood! P.S. I am disappointed they took the fried, pancake batter dipped bacon off the brunch menu. They were so good. Bring 'em back! (Please)

NY Strip (Surf & Turf)
Marie V.

The margarita was excellent, shoutout to the bartender, she clearly knows what she's doing. We've been here before and enjoyed the bar food, but this was our first time trying dinner... and unfortunately, it was a let down. Double date nights are always a win, especially when you get a quiet, cool spot in the back of the restaurant (thank you, PHX heat!). The Surf and Turf had good shrimp, but the NY strip (ordered medium rare) was tough and dry. The Caesar could use a better dressing. Potatoes were boring. The Figgy Piggy Burger came out overcooked and dry, and the nachos were a miss--the avocado didn't taste right. We'll be back for the drinks and wings, but dinner missed the mark this time.

Pizza and sidewinder potatoes
Ali B.

Yum! We attended a summer movie event here in the little area between lucis and orchard tavern last night and it was a blast! We ordered online from orchard tavern and it was ready even faster than toast said it would be and pickup was super easy. We got a margarita pizza with goat cheese, and a kids cheese pizza, which is the size of a regular pizza. We also got the sidewinder fries with ranch and aioli. They forgot our ranch at first but my husband was able to go grab it. The friends we were with got a cheese pizza too and had fast pickup. The pizza was super delicious and ingredients tasted fresh! I loved the seasoning in the goat cheese. My husband really loved the sidewinder potatoes, they're like swirly steak fries! Pricing wasn't like insane, kind of as expected. My 2 year old enjoyed the pizza and fries too! And I loved the flavor of the aioli. Really fun, cool spot. Will be back this summer for sure!

Menu
Sue S.

We have never been. Just wants a little snack. It was 8 pm. We were welcomed and sat at a booth. Cocktails of course . Husband got the Posole. And I got the Tenderloin Toast. Just Wow! Everything so delicious. I can't wait to return!!

Had a fantastic Wednesday night, and a big reason was our server Max. From the moment we sat down,…read moreMax was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made the experience feel special. The recommendations were spot on, exactly the kind of insider knowledge that makes you feel like you're in good hands. Never had to wait for anything, and Max had a way of checking in at just the right moments without being intrusive. One of those servers who reminds you why going out is so much more than just drink. Will absolutely be back!

But, if you're looking for a really cool bar, KWSC is for you. I stopped by on a week day evening around 8:30 p.m. Located in Roosevelt Row, while there isn't parking, I found free parking on the street a few minutes away on foot. Ambiance (4.5/5): My type of spot. Dimly lit with a speakeasy vibe. There are eight or so seats at the bar, and the rest of your seating options consist of comfortable chairs and sofas. You'll see a lot of photos of people's bums on the walls lol. This is indeed part of the appeal. For free, if you would like, they will take a polaroid of your butt and memorialize you eternally on the walls. While I didn't do that, if that's up your alley, go for it. Service (2/5): This is the main area of improvement. After being seated, I was greeted promptly and got my first cocktail promptly. From there, things fell apart. I had to grab the bartender's attention to order my second drink and to close out. It was a week day and they weren't busy. And there were two bartenders. A lack of attentiveness. When I closed out, I noticed that the cocktails were both $2 more expensive than what was listed on the menu. When I inquired, I was told that the menus were outdated... umm what? If you're not going to re-print your menus, give people a heads-up when they arrive. I understand that most people won't notice, but this is deception. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet. If you're trying to eat here, all they have is snacks. The menu doesn't specify but I'm thinking it's probably chips or somethign like that. Drinks (4/5): A lengthy, and interesting, cocktail list. Similar to a speakeasy, you're going to see creativity and an interesting blend of flavors here. The most popular drink is Fuck Nazis. We're seeing a theme here. KWSC is an interesting spot. For various dollar amounts, you can get funny things outside of the polaroids of your bum. My first cocktail was great. My second one, a tiki drink, not so much. The menu said that there would be some flame action happening. It didn't. Just another example of the service falling short. If the service were better, Killer Whale Sex Club would easily be a five-star experience.

They always have different nights like trivia, bingo, live music, comedy, karaoke and DJs and then of course their curated wine club night (one time per month). The cocktails are so good here -- so many are my favorite, especially the espresso martini. They also seem to have rotating specials too -- I can't remember what this month's drink is but it has candied ginger in it and it is so good! Butler's has a small menu but the grilled cheese is super yummy. I see they have just added hummus to the menu so definitely need to check that out! You can also bring in outside food. I joined the wine club and every month they have a curated wine tasting and then members get the selected bottles to bring home. The have a little charcurterie table set up too. Wine club members are free and I think it is $20 for non-members. I want more people to come to Butler's because it is such a great neighborhood bar -- so check it out now!!!

What an underrated bar! Easily my favorite bar in phoenix. I'm shocked this doesn't have way more…read morehype. If I lived in phoenix, I'd be a regular for sure They opened during Covid and are relatively new but they got all their cocktail drinks on lock. Every drink we've had has been amazing! My favorite is the lavender fog and the mulled wine (which is only available in November) The service is awesome and the bartenders are so chill and down to earth. This bar also has live music on saturdays, trivia's and game nights. In fact, at every table, they have a deck of cards against humanity. At the entrance they also have a variety of other games like connect four, jenga and such. Lavender fog: great balance of lavender and earl grey tea! The foam is the best creamy touch to the drink. I feel in a relaxed daze when I have this drink. I think it's the most special one here. It was even featured on a magazine! Pour favor: I don't like mezcal but this was nice. The mango puree was prominent which I loved and was well complimented with sour and spice. This drink style is a little more commonly found in other bars too which is probably because it's popular! Indoor smoking: smoky, cool and well done twist in the old fashioned. They prepare it in such a cool way with the smoking process and the delivery is great. SMOOTH old fashion. It was alcohol forward but I didn't feel any burn that I normally get from any common old fashion. It also had the best citrus aftertaste The sunny slope sour: great if you love whiskey sour. I loved this drink the pear and peach made the whiskey taste less harsh. One of the better renditions of whiskey sours I've had My brightside. Bitter but works so well with watermelon! Refreshing, balanced and delicious. I typically don't love Negronis but I loved this rendition. The nanny: mezcal espresso martini that was also well done. You can also taste raspberry and chocolate every sip Mulled wine: hot wine with spices that I argue was better than the mulled wines I've had in Europe. All the spices and aromas were so complex yet cozy for a chilly night! The bartenders treat their regulars well and seem to really have a great community here. With offers for movie nights, paint and sip, jack box games, wine club, etc

I stopped by on a Friday around 5:30 to catch the tail end of happy hour (which ends at 6). They're located in a busy shopping center with a bunch of other businesses but you'll find a free spot. Ambiance (3.5/5): Pretty much your typical neighborhood beer bar. Casual and welcoming. There's a long bar at one end with some seats at the bar. Plus some high tops. And a few comfortable couches. They have live music sometimes too. A band was setting up right when I was leaving so I didn't get to catch them. Nice touch though. And they have a small patio as well. Outside of that, they have board games and two pinball machines. Chill spot to down some brews. Service (3.5/5): You order at the end of the bar. Service was pretty efficient. Not terribly friendly, but not bad. This seems like the type of spot that has a lot of regulars. Which does say something important about the service. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet so no food on this visit. I did notice they have a limited food menu. Pizza for the most part. Drinks (4/5): Mostly a beer bar, though they also have some wine, mead, and ciders. 20 or so beers on tap. And we're not talking things like Bud Light or Dos Equis. Interesting beers. Craft beers. Some local and some not. And if you'd like to take beers home with you, they have 100 beers or so in a fridge that you can purchase to-go. All appealing to a beer nerd like me.

One serving area in the middle w seats all around and around the perimeter. We tried one night (it happened to be karaoke night) and it was standing room only!
