We stopped at Proper Brewing after a day of hiking. There's a restaurant and a separate bar area. We always like to sit at the bar and the bartenders (Matt 1 and Matt 2) were friendly and attentative. There's a good selection of beer. We ordered the fried pickle appetizer. It was ok. The pickle spears were sliced very thin and the coating was coming off most of them, but they were still good. We'd go back for sure. read more

Proper Brewing & Burger - Fried pickles - Brewpubs Near Me - Moab, Utah

Stumbled into Proper Brewing on a quick Moab pit stop and it was exactly what we needed. Cozy vibe, great energy, and a World Cup game on the TV made it lively in all the right ways. On the drinks: the cider (Betsy?) was a total win. The hard lemon tea was decent but didn't quite hit the same. On the food side, the fries were great and the pretzel was solid but nothing special. The chicken wings were a little inconsistent, a couple came out undercooked, which was a bummer. The real highlight though? Our server, she was from Mexico City and was just so warm and genuinely kind. Service like that makes all the difference. Worth the stop for sure. We'd pop in again next time we pass through Moab! read more

After a long, sunny midday dip over at Mill Creek Waterfall, escaping the desert heat meant finding refuge and cold fluids fast. Moab is notorious for its predictable, shallow tourist traps that roll out the same uninspired menus to captive crowds, so skipping the main drag nonsense for Proper Brewing felt like the right call. It is a bit of a quirky setup inside. The decor hits you as slightly odd and dated right off the bat, giving off an old-school aesthetic that does not quite line up with modern taproom minimalism, but it functions well enough when you just need to cool down. The service was a bit on the spotty side and carried a rather peculiar vibe, though the kitchen and the bar kept things moving quickly enough for a shorter visit. The real saving grace here lives in the taps and the coolers. Finding a spot in this town that treats classic styles with genuine respect is a rarity. The SLC Pils is incredibly clean with a crisp, snappy noble hop finish that immediately cuts through the midday heat. We leaned into the hoppier side of the list with the Concerning Hops, a beautifully simple and dank West Coast IPA, and the Leisurebrau, which kept the clean drinking streak alive. For something a bit more aromatic, the Blizzard Wizzard held its own, but the standout for me was the Yacht Rock Juice Box. It brings a great tropical, hazy profile that does not fall into that sticky, cloying sweetness trap that ruins so many modern versions of the style. Before heading out, hitting their to-go section is an absolute necessity. They have a killer selection of tall boys ready to go, which is exactly what you want when stocking up for whatever adventure waits just beyond the town limits. We kept the food order simple and focused on the appetizer menu to fuel up after swimming. The Proper Nachos arrived fully loaded with all the standard fixings, including a decent avocado spread and pickled jalapeños. Honestly, they were completely fine, just your textbook, dependable bar nachos that hit the salty craving without reinventing the wheel. The Proper Poutine stepped things up a bit with a rich brown gravy and real cheese curds, layered with an unexpected hit of herbed cream cheese and bacon that added some serious depth to the plate. Dessert, however, turned into a tale of two completely different kitchens. Skip the banana split entirely. They make it with vanilla soft serve instead of traditional hard scoops, which just feels weirdly cheap and results in a melted, sloppy texture before the dish even settles on the table. Truth be told, you need to redirect that attention entirely to the bread pudding. It features chunks of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups baked right into a warm, dense, incredibly rich base, finished with caramel and whipped cream. It is absolutely excellent and easily salvaged the sweet portion of the meal. Even with the quirky atmosphere and the eccentric service, the quality of the beer and the standout dishes make this one of the absolute best options in the area. I would easily drop back in next time I am rolling through Moab. read more

Back to Proper for grub and brew! Upheaval was a Premium high Octane beer for Proper and the state of Utah! Been 2 years since the last visit, but I knew this place still has the juice. Got the Da Vinci again with the side salad and mi amigo grabbed the Flying Hawaiian sans Buns with fries. Always a pleasure. read more

We stopped at Proper Brewing in Moab and had a great experience. I ordered the Vienna Lager and a margarita (called the Johnny Utah) along with a Caesar side salad, while my husband ordered a side of fries--and those fries were amazing! If you like crunchy fries, this place nails them. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the space is huge-half of it is set up as a restaurant, while the other side is considered a pub, where you can order drinks without food. Since we were hungry, we ordered food anyway. The bartender was friendly and attentive, and the hostess even brought Luna a treat, which made her day. We stayed inside so Luna could cool off before heading to Arches National Park. The only downside for me was the margarita, which was far too sour for my taste. Still, the overall vibe, great fries, and pet-friendly attitude made this a solid stop in Moab. read more

Nothing real special. My wife had a pork sandwich and I had a burger. Both were extra loaded with stuff that fell more difficulty. We didn't find that the food was anything special. We started with some fried pickles and we've had a double dozen other places where they were much better than this place. the only thing we can say is that the servers was excellent I really like the bartender who made recommendations and was great to talk to on that. Nothing special! read more

Proper Brewing & Burger - Sitting at the bar - Brewpubs Near Me - Moab, Utah

Proper Brewing was awesome!!! Delicious beer (blizzard hazy pale, the hazy ipa, dark Mexican lager) at good prices and the brewery had a very cool design/vibe. Fun bar area, lots of indoor seating with AC as well as a really nice shaded outdoor area that is dog friendly. Ashley and Enrique working the bar were so nice, we enjoyed chatting with them! They had fun games to play, and we bought a couple "make your own" 4 packs (beers to go were mostly $2.5, solid price). Didn't try the food but it looked tasty, especially the buffalo wings. Free parking lot plus overflow lot on other side of fence. Highly recommend Proper Brewing, we had a blast. Moab Brewery may be right in town but Proper's beers were a bit better imo ;) - it's absolutely worth visiting! read more

The ambiance isn't bad, dark finished tables with enough light from the overhead lights and the glass patio doors. Service was a bit slow considering there was only one other table besides us. The drafts were tasty but needed to be considerably colder considering the outside temperature. We ordered the notorious P.I.G. And the proper poutine with pulled pork. The orders were delivered faster than the brews were and were good despite the fact the poutine was missing the all important cheese curds! I would have pointed it out to the sever but he was not to be seen and I was hungry. When the check came it wasn't the correct one (a couple more tables had come in) pointed it out and got the correct one, then when the slip came back it was for a different table, long story short it took three attempts to pay the tab. I did want a growler but despite it being offered on the menu they didn't have any. read more

We were passing through Moab and needed a dog friendly place to eat. We love a good dog-friendly brewery! On a Friday night we were able to be seated on the patio right away. Our server was attentive and very kind. He always asked if he could pet my dog each time he came to the table and I thought that was nice. After a week of vacation I was in desperate need of a salad. This kale ceaser salad hit the spot. I thought the zucchini pickles were interesting - I liked them but I can see where some people may not. But my salad was perfect and I'd definitely get it again! My boyfriend got a burger and he really enjoyed both the burger and his beer. The patio was lovely with string lights and lots of seating. If you're in the area, it's worth the stop! read more

Proper Brewing & Burger - Great pretzels! - Brewpubs Near Me - Moab, Utah

This place is awesome. They have so many different styles of beer that are so unique and I really respect that they are experimenting with new things as a brewery. If you want to try any of them you do have to pay 50 cents which is a bummer but it is Utah after all. I loved their juicy IPA and we all decided to get dinner so I had the hipster veggie burger and I genuinely think it was one of the best veggie burger I've ever had. It was crispy and veggie filled and so delicious with the toppings and sauces. The fries were also really good especially with their house made sauces. My friend got the kale caesar which was also amazing, highly recommend. This place is a little outside town but totally worth it and service was great. I wish I knew about it sooner, I highly recommend. read more

We were recently in the area and stopped in for dinner after a long day of driving. Proper Brewing and Burger has so many tasty offerings to satisfy most food and drink needs so it was the perfect place! The service great and friendly and very helpful too! We were a little hungry but trying not to over order so we got some chips and queso to start and our orders came out shortly afterwards. We got a Proper style burger, and a Sundance kid burger and both were perfectly done and oh so tasty! We also got a salted caramel porter and a dunkel buck which were both delicious! There was plenty of parking out front but we walked over from our room. The staff were helpful and friendly and adequately came to check on us throughout our visit. If we had more time in the area, we probably would've stopped in several more times! The next time we're in the area we're definitely coming back! We hope others will stop in to check them out too! It'll be well worth your time and effort to get here! read more

Does Utah brew the best beer in the USA? No duh we all know that. Did Moab have good local beer before this place opened? No duh we also all know that. I came for beer and beer is what I had up at the bar. This is the kind of bar where you'll have a chill fun time alone or with people. Service is friendly and welcoming, with beer knowledge and the ability to chat with customers. Beer selection- long and diverse. This isn't a "we mostly do IPas" or "check out our stouts" kinda place- this is a want a stout, sour, IPA, or some obscure style like a dark lager?. I had 4 very different beers and they were all good, some great, and all world's better than the beer down the road. I had an awesome time and I will be back. They don't have balloon animals but they do have a Johnny Cash impersonator on staff that can pull of a good Sinatra if you have different taste. Love that little perk. read more

Looking for a spot to grab a beer outside of the other local brewery? Step right in. Perfection spot for a good selection of brewed beer and cocktails. The food however is a huge fail. I was more surprised by the lack of originality concerning their cheese dip/queso dip. It is the same cheese dip for the nachos and other appetizers. Totally bought in a bulk can in my opinion. It was basic and plain. Not impressed with the food but a great brewery vibe inside. read more

Proper Brewing & Burger - Proper burger, German lager and side salad with homemade ranch - Brewpubs Near Me - Moab, Utah

Go to Moab Brewery instead. Food was below average - burger was not seasoned and the salad dressing was advertised as green goodness but I have no idea what it was, the added chicken was dry, and the red onion was cut in huge chunks. Location was convenient but the inside layout wasn't special. Where they failed the greatest was with service. It started well with Maddie taking our order and offering suggestions but then a table of 4 entered the part of the bar we were in. After that, both servers in the bar were swooning over that table and ignored us. The male bartender stood with his back to us most times he was in the room and walked out without checking on us. He checked in on us once and I asked for another glass of wine that was never brought to me. The only time the male server came back to our table was to have us pay. We are normally high tippers, but not today. read more

I went there not super hungry, so I ordered a tomato soup. It was very thick not really a soup. And the toast what it looked and tasted like, they used a kitchen tool which they used for other foods. I didn't think you can mess up tomato soup and toast. My husband had a bean burger which was ok. Beer was good. Don't offer food if you can't cook. read more

After 2 disappointing, expensive Moab dinners we decided to give Proper a try. Wow. These are burgers from heaven! My house made vegan black burger was not only the best I've ever eaten, it was perfectly cooked with nice crispy edges. Husband's Moab burger was also fantastic. Ingredients are high quality and the bun almost has a brioche like quality. We also had tomato soup, probably the best we'd ever eaten. All this for far less $ - AND we had a beer flight here but no alcohol at the other spots. We loved it so much, we went back the very next day! Great spot to unwind post hiking, very friendly service. Total winner for us! read more

Great atmosphere, good conversation and great beer and food. The Daily IPA, Yahet Rock Juice Box and 1984 were great tasting. We had chili cheese fries and frickles. The chili cheese fries were good, not to spicy. The frickles were the best fried pickles we've had in a while. read more

Stayed next door so this was a super convenient dinner option. Plus, we could bring our dogs. Our server was awesome. Super attentive. Nice guy. The food was meh. We had poutine which did not have cheese curds, a proper burger and a Johnny Utah. They were all just ok. More importantly, this place is RUN DOWN. I don't think anyone from corporate has visited this year. There are tons of tall weeds in the parking lot. The patio is just a mess (see photos). There are even beer cans in what should be the water fountain. Over all not impressed. Will be dining elsewhere for dinner the remainder of our trip. read more

We were excited to try this place. It looked like a fun place to try out after a long drive into town. We ordered the pretzel with jalapeño cheese and hot honey mustard; the Sundance kid burger, and the hipster veggie burger. The beers arrived and were good - that was the only thing that was good. The pretzel arrived quickly but it was cold, served with plain cheese and grainy mustard. There was no salt on the cold, dried out pretzels. Very disappointing, not what the menu described. Not hot honey mustard or jalapeno cheese. Then after 20 minutes the server came by and asked how everything was, we said good, just waiting on our food. He said- be right back with that. Then came back a minute later asking us what we ordered. We told him and he said it would be right out. I get it, they were training new people and maybe he forgot to put in our order. A few minutes later he arrive with our food - not good. Both of our meals were cold. The burger was dry and over done, my veggie patty was burnt. Fries were cold. It was very disappointing. And they never checked back to see how things were except to see if we were ready for the check. Skip this place unless you want a beer. There are too many other places in Moab for food. read more

Came on a recommendation from family. The staff was less than personable, environment was awkward, and seating layout was confusing. The beer served was unique in our perspective. The food, worse than the gas station. We have never seen chicken wings so big, that tasted like the frozen Tyson wings at the grocery store. When the woman cleaning tables ask if we wanted a box and we declined she grew angry and disgruntled towards us. Sorry we didn't like your food? She spoke Spanish and so did our friend so she didn't speak to him again. Our friend wound up sick shortly after and 24 hours later still doesn't feel too hot. This will be somewhere else can say we tried, but will not return. read more

I've gone to Proper Burger at their SLC location and really enjoyed their food, so I was excited to see them open a restaurant in Moab. This time, I tried their Kale Caesar Salad and it was delicious! My partner had the Proper Style Burger with the Mexican style corn ( of which I tried a few bites) and it was a nice addition to the meal! Their best food, however, was the waffle fries! Highly recommend trying them along with the fry sauce! read more

A for effort, F for execution. What I thought was just a bad staffing issue is I think just seriously mismanaged restaurant side of the house. Specifics: No waitress check in for 15 minutes after seating. Order eventually placed but "I'm not your server, she's out there [random gesture towards the patio area]." Worst Cobb salad I've ever had. No cheese curds in the poutine?!? Wife's kale salad was super bitter. Beer was good, once I eventually got one, but avoid eating here. read more

Don't look at their website, nor google, nor whatever you see online. Their menu has changed. Their hours have changed. They say they're small (yet...aren't there 6 breweries around the state?) and can't update anything online. If you are from out of town, don't sit at the bar. The catty locals (both male and female) aren't friendly, and all I could think about was "no wonder you're single and sitting alone at the bar". $6 for pints. NO winter prices here. read more
