Great casual place. Music nice the second visit. Sat at bar both times and enjoyed all the staff. The food was very good and large portions. Happy hour was nice and Thursday wines special came with cheese board and filled us up. Well done read more

Told my fiancée I was going to stop and support this place--I always support small businesses--even though we had already bought sandwiches for our trip up Seven Springs Road. Jen was very courteous and brought to us a bowl of water for our dog, along with menus. We were seated outside. She told me they couldn't make us sandwiches for some reason I don't remember. I said no worries, just bring us a couple of drinks and some guacamole and chips, and that we would eat the sandwiches we had already purchased. About the time my fiancée returns from the truck with the sandwiches, and with Jen getting our food and drink, a man who I can only surmise was the owner rudely approaches and says the restaurant isn't a place where you bring your own food, and asks us to leave in a curt and disrespectful manner. (Apparently he's never been taught that in a service industry, you first seek to understand before being understood). He wouldn't allow me to explain, he just told us to get out. What a great first impression. There was ONE other table with people. All I was trying to do was support the place. NOTICE to all my 4WD'ing friends--DO NOT SUPPORT a place run by a jerk. read more

Raven's View - Pubs Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

My family and I were visiting Scottsdale this year for Thanksgiving and this was a great spot for a late night hangout with some wine and small plates. Wonderful atmosphere out on the patio with nice peaceful music, not the loud rock or rap crap that drowns out conversation at the dinner table. It was a little chilly, but every table had a heater and they provided very warm blankets for anyone that requested. Great food, we tried the Corn Queso, Hummus, and Deviled Eggs, all of which were well executed and full of flavor. The Ahi Poke bowl and the paninis we tried were all very fresh and tasty. I highly recommend for a late night place to watch the sunset, grab some small plates, have some drinks, and listen to some music. read more

I'm sure this is a great place to come have a drink But if your really hungry and realize no restaurant is within 15 miles and you want food to eat out nearby forgot it! Because when we ordered our food it took them 1 hour 25min to get our appetizer to our table before the entree! The food itself was decent for a "wine bar" but waiting that long for a bowl of food with 3 meatballs and sauce in it ...shouldn't take more then 20-30 min! The server was passive friendly and did actually apologize for the inconvenience ....but really gave us no explanation.. It was seemed busy when we first got there but by the time we got our food half the place was empty. Beyond that the parking there is horrible and tightly congested (Fire Marshall hazard), a rude patron parked so close to our car boxing us in and we barley had enough room to squeeze our car out of there. The overall experience isn't worthy of more then 1 Star! ...Next time I'm super hungry and want to eat out, I'll drive into town for 15-20 min to eat out. If I have all the time in the world I might go there again to get a drink there, but I doubt it after this experience. What sucks is ...it doesn't take much to make customers happy about service and food, but they failed miserably with this experience. My suggestion is if you go here only get a drink not food unless you got a spare 2 hours to waste which some people in this area probably do, since it's so remote and beautiful territory filled with old people. But living in the Arizona Valley where the food industry has super high standards because of competition ....don't walk into Raven wine bar with high expectations and you'll be good!. read more

OK, this is a rave. The decor is modern but comfy, the wine list is beautifully constructed from affordable to exquisite, and the food that we had was gourmet and delightfully light. We went for early happy hour- a late snack. We enjoyed a bottle of Kim Crawford Sauv Blanc that was perfect with our truffle popcorn (accented with sunflower seeds-- great!) and the margarita panini that has just the perfect amount of balsamic that set it apart as delicious. Kim Westhoff bought the place this spring and has done wonders. It is definitely worth the drive up. Treat yourself! read more

Just had a fabulous Girls Lunch at Raven's View! We had to sit outside so it was toasty. Great chacuterie board and wine for appetizers. Split the Beet / Goat cheese salad and Caprese Chicken Panini. Absolutely delicious. Excellent customer service!! I can't wait to go again. read more

This is just a great place to relax , have a glass of wine and a small meal. Tom is a great guy behind the bar. We meet such nice people there for a chat before heading home. Off the beaten path of crowded Cave Creek. read more

What a quaint and classy wine bar!!! I loved the ambiance and scenery. The food was delicious and beautiful and the staff is second to non! Don't even get me started on the amazing wines! If you are looking for a cozy date night spot or a fun girls night out with live music and fun atmosphere head to Raven's View! It does not disappoint! read more

Walked in on a Sunday afternoon with my wife. There were several tables with children with one singing kids songs. Walked right back out

Nice! Good salads! Beautiful views! 1st time here! Need to get flies under control though. Will be nice later when it cools down to stop by for a glass of wine and sit outside . read more

First time visit last night....and we will soon become regulars! Beautiful views, amazing service, delicious food, and awesome live music too!!! Great overall 'vibe' - go check it out! And yes they take reservations too (highly recommended). read more

This little place just North of Bartlett Lake is a awesome place to stop to have a drink, a bite to eat and relax. You have a beautiful view of the mountains. Tom and Linda are always very attentive and always offer great service. Linda has thought of everything right down to throw blankets when it gets nippy out. I stumbled upon this place last year when I was taking my dad for a drive. I have been back several times with friends and I will continue to visit. read more

Great location, delicious menu, terrific view and wonderful service. After an invigorating hike, a large group of us descended for lunch. Table was on the front deck, beautiful view. Service by Kathy was fast, friendly and efficient. Various sandwiches, salads, and even deviled eggs delicious. Drinks menu from a prior visit fun and inventive. A must visit. read more

Amazing sandwiches, great service and selection of wines and beers! Fun place to drop your tailgate and enjoy the sunset and great food!

You have to come up here and enjoy Linda and Tom's gracious hospitality, delicious food and outstanding selection of libations! Tom and Linda will make you feel as if you are their dearest friend, welcoming you into their second "home". The peacefulness and mountain views create a magical atmosphere. This place gets five stars! It is a very special place. It's my new favorite! Try the Cubano! It was outstanding. #ravensview #tontohills read more

Stopped at Raven's View for afternoon wine and appetizer and we were not disappointed. Had hoped to sit outdoors on the patio, but it was a bit windy with a chill, so stayed inside and really enjoyed the serenity of the space. We happened upon their "bottle of wine" special and ordered the charcuterie board. Spent the afternoon enjoying pleasant music and conversation. Will definitely return. read more

Love this beautiful place. Great location away from the maddening crowd. Tom & Linda are delightful and wonderful hosts. The food is great as well as the wine and beer. This is our new favorite hangout. Just hope we will be able to get in when season starts, as we know they will be very popular . Lovely patio seating and you can bring your dog! Perfect setting and friendly warm customers. A good place to be. Don't miss this darling place! read more

Absolutely worth your drive and time. I am an avid cyclist and happened upon this amazing venue on a ride. I mentioned it to my husband and we ventured out on a lazy Friday on our first weekend of amazing weather in the Phoenix weather. Wow! 3000 ft equaled perfect temps! The wine selection was absolutely out of this world and the view, gorgeous. Tom and Linda,the owners, are down to earth and the reason you enjoy and support local business. If you are a wine drinker- this place will touch your heart. If you about weather and views, this place will steal your heart. read more

Loved this place. Great vibe inside and out. Good Happy Hour deals. Wine and beer selection is excellent. Menu is eclectic and everything we tried was delicious - try the charcuterie. Service was perfect. Patio has an amazing view. Perfect spot for a quick bite or a special occasion. read more

Beautiful location and view with a comfortable and stylish atmosphere. Great wine and the 3 cheese panini was delicious. Plus, they have a small little store to grab a sixer and ice cream for a little something later. Highly recommend it to those that live nearby, or if you want to take a pleasant and cool drive to Bartlett Lake or Seven Springs, this is the place to stop for a bit. read more

Luv this place. It's one of my husband and I favorite place to get away from the valley and get a drink. The food is good and the service is always excellent. Brunch is good too. Some evenings the have live music too. It's a must try place. read more

Went here with friends who were just buying a home in Desert Mountain so it was a great intro to the neighborhood. We had lots to talk about so the fact that service was a little slow because Linda was out sick didn't bother us. We were delighted that they had Rombauer Chardonnay but only one chilled so Tom had to quick chill the second bottle for us (now appears it is no longer on the list). The menu is a little limiting but we didn't starve however it would be nice to have a few more options. We split the deviled eggs (no longer on), the Linda Board (which now there are new names), a pretzel, and a panini. read more

What a jewel in the desert. Great wine list, nice menu, attentive staff. Can't wait to come back.

Amazing oasis in north Scottsdale. Great views. Happy hour prices and food are excellent.

I highly recommend this place. Although I secretly hope it doesnt get so popular that I cant find a seat when I am in town. Instantly I felt like I was in the home of good friends. Its beautiful, cozy and welcoming all at the same time. The wine and beer recommendations exceeded expectations, and I consider myself a bit on the fussy side. Tom and Linda are gems. We cant wait to go back. In fact, Id like to have a house nearby so I could pop in to unwind a few times a week. read more

A quirky cute little bar/restaurant. The building is awesome and obviously you go for the view. I wish the patio was a little bigger but the kitchen probably couldn't handle it! All of the employees were super nice even though they were very busy. Drink selection was good enough for me. The food was alright, very basic but they have a tiny kitchen so I didn't expect much more. A great place for the ambiance and drinks - typically an older crowd but we still loved it! read more

Fresh atmosphere with good service and basic American Cuisine which we found to be tasty. The seating on metal bar stools and dining chairs were extremely uncomfortable. There are a few upholstered dining chairs however, very few. We would return only if more sensible and comfortable seating were available. read more

This is our second time and thoroughly enjoy this little wine bar. In the middle of literally no where, it's so calming and comfortable. The Owners, friendly and welcoming. I feel like they inviting us in their own private home. A truly lovely spot. read more

What a great place. Staff was very accommodating. I changed our seat 3 separate times. They were kind & celebrated our anniversary. Food was really good. Deviled eggs amazing. Highly recommend read more

Real great spot with awesome views, great food and cold beer! I've noticed this place on my bike rides...and, my wife and I finally made it there recently....super cool place...the owners, Linda and Tom are really friendly...real great vibe...the views are unreal....give it a try ....it won't disappoint! read more

Tom and Linda are the best! Adorable location with a beautiful view. We have tried almost everything on the menu and genuinely loved it all. Indoor in the winter is charming and cozy, outdoor in the warm weather is all beautiful views and a perfect shady patio. We were treated like family from the first visit. We are definitely wine snobs and the list keeps us coming back. read more

Followed the sign "Beer and Wine Pub 1 mile away" after a Sunday drive to Bartlett Lake and so glad we did! Ravens View was beautiful and comfortable space with amazing views! We'll be back to enjoy another cold one soon! read more

We just finished a hike at Seven Springs and were heading back into Scottsdale and we spied the Raven's View, an oasis in the desert. We enjoyed a glass of wine and some delicious apps with a brilliant view. Loved the isolated feel! Looking forward to an evening visit to enjoy the dark skies and desert solitude. read more

I have been a regular at Raven's View since Kim took ownership. She has been nothing but absolutely wonderful to me and her staff. I know that her staff loves working for her and she has set a stage for a successful restaurant. The food is awesome and you can tell that the kitchen staff has put their all into the dishes. Love bringing people here and enjoy the environment. read more

What a wonderful find. Tom and Linda are delightful hosts and you cannot beat the spectacular desert views. Had two of the sandwiches that were delicious and the wine selections were great. The atmosphere is comfortable and peaceful. This definitely is my new favorite place. read more

If you want delicious wine, tasty plates and a fabulous vista, then Raven's View is the place for you. Love the fun decor and choices of seating - bar, comfy chairs, indoor and outdoor tables. Tom is great and we look forward to meeting Linda when she is able to return. We love driving up then returning as the sun is setting! Spectacular read more

What a jewel....I so enjoyed my Sunday afternoon sipping my Arizona white blend wine along with a tasty cheese panini. The views are spectacular!! Owners Tom and Linda, and chef David were so welcoming. Can't wait to go back :) read more

We have been to Raven's view twice and have enjoyed it each time. Tom & Linda, the owners, are great fun! The views from the bar and patio are amazing. Try the small plates! read more

Went for lunch very disappointed. 4 of us ordered 4 entrees. One was brought and then we waited an hour for 2 sandwiches and a salad. To say we were ignored is an understatement. The restaurant wasn't busy and we signaled the waiter and basically nothing happened. Very sad read more

UGH!!! After looking on both website and Yelp to make sure they were open this summer, we drove ALL the way up here to discover a sign on the door saying they're closed until August 3. read more
