Menu price change on daily specials
Linda H.

Prices are more now higher. Service and food is great! Cute bar and restaurant. Laundry mat close.

The bar.

Lil Misty is the best! In fact all but one of the bartenders are awesome. Big Misty is cool too. The food is questionable. The cook puts onions in everything whether you want them or not. Some people are allergic.

Came back for seconds, but this time brought my mom and sister. Thursday is pork tenderloin sandwich day. Simply delicious at Simpleton's!

We picked this place for our happy hour get together we had about 12 of us and we loved this place…read more The prices were right, lots of options for everyone, friendly staff and orders were correct. They don't do reservations but you can call ahead. I called at 1130am to ask them to have a table for 12 available for 3pm for us. I walked in and no waiting it was all set up and welcoming us! I ordered a prickly pear Margarita and my friends were jealous that mine was better than theirs lol. Delish!! I snacked on Calamari, Pub Pretzels and Loaded Beef Nachos. Everything was cooked to perfection and a sharing size! My friends had burgers and a Monte Cristo and enjoyed their meals. There was plenty of seating and parking when we got there at 3. They have a lunch specials menu and a happy hour menu. We will be back and definitely recommend them.

To be successful in life, you need systems--and this location has systems down to a science!…read more We come here 1-3 times a week, and the consistency is impressive. The servers know us, everyone is friendly, and the service is always welcoming. There are so many menu items we love that the hardest part is honestly deciding what to order. Everything we've had has been delicious! You have good supervisors, strong upper management, servers who genuinely seem to care, and cooks who consistently deliver. Whatever the secret sauce is behind the scenes, they've figured it out. It's rare to find a place that consistently gets so many things right, but this location does. They nail it 99% of the time, and that consistency is exactly why we keep coming back. Great food, great people, great systems. Keep doing what you're doing!

The Hub Grill and Bar - GF hot wings

My wife and I just ate at Hub Grill and Bar (Stapley location) while visiting Mesa (on our wedding…read moreanniversary) and it was outstanding! First of all, the service really made the experience memorable. Our server, Jessica (Jess), acknowledged and greeted us quickly, checked on us periodically and handled anything we needed gracefully (for example, drink refills, more napkins, etc.), and her personality was engaging. She was a lot of fun, guided us through the menu, and overall just made the experience memorable. My wife has a gluten allergy and Hub Grill and Bar not only offers a much more extensive set of options than most restaurants, but menu items that are really hard to find in GF versions - like fish n chips and fried chicken items, not just the gluten-free or gluten-friendly items that are naturally GF like proteins and rice. This place deserves a lot of credit just the selection of GF items, but they actually execute on delivering delicious tasting GF items! And they even have a dedicated fryer. I tried her gluten-free Hub Fried Chicken and I wouldn't have even noticed it was GF if I hadn't known in advance. They manage to make a great tasting GF breading that doesn't fall right off the chicken. And the chicken itself is moist and tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. French fries were also crispy, hot, and tasty!The wings (cooked in the dedicated fryer, a total bonus) really are what everyone raves about. Best wings we've had in a long time, and we get wings as an appetizer in most restaurants. We didn't even try the smoked variation yet, wanted to start with the traditional version in El Jefe sauce and that sauce was just terrific! We normally ask for the sauce on the side and just forgot to do so at Hub Grill and Bar, but it worked out perfectly anyway because that sauce was so great. Just a little spice, great flavor (a hint of lime, a little cilantro taste), crispy outside, and moist and tender on the inside. It will be hard not to crave those wings. I'm still thinking about them. I had the (regular) fish n chips and it was also great. Flaky fish with a crispy breading on the outside that really stuck to the fish, along with great French fries, a little side of cole slaw and even a few slices of garlic bread. I forgot to mention before now that the portions are sizable and you really get your money's worth here. I think it was two or three nice big pieces of fish let alone fries, slaw, and bread! A lot of restaurants offer MAYBE two pieces and sometimes even one for their fish n chips. Hub's was two or three big pieces (they are more flat like a cutlet than the thick pieces you see sometimes but still, plenty of fish). And there are SO many more items we'd love to try here (the peanut butter and bacon burger, shaved ribeye sliders, and steak stroganoff just to name a few). Plus, the happy hour is great (and early - 2:12 PM, and we old people love our early happy hours!). We really are looking forward to our next visit. I'd even consider planning a visit to Mesa just to eat here! Now, what drew us here was the gluten free menu, but the great service, wide array of menu items and delicious food is what will bring us back again when in the area.

We are big fans of the hub, until today. Today was a terrible and unpleasant experience from the…read moretime we sat down. Our server, which I'll loosely use as a way to describe him, was lackluster and we felt as if we were a nuisance to him just being here. Yes it is busy for a football Sunday but the experience that HE could make a difference in he didn't. We'll start with my drink order. I asked for a simple Arnold Palmer with raspberry flavor. I received a red cup with ice and some liquid concoction that left my stomach feeling gross from the first small sip. He seemed confused by my drink order, here is his opportunity to confirm with me my want or to ask another coworker how to make it if he was unaware. But what he chose to bring back was a drink "with 17 pumps of raspberry", his words not mine. We let him know the drink was unacceptable, he changed his tone and service experience after that. Finally I asked for a water instead and that too took almost 5 mins to bring back to me. We ordered the nachos appetizer and onion rings as a starter as we planned on spending a couple of hours to watch the game. We asked for some extra salsa and sour cream for our nachos. It arrived sloppy and dripping into the other. We have one person who doesn't like salsa but likes sour cream. It ruined that for us. He even dropped the plate quickly on the table without saying excuse me or here you go. We chose to immediately cut our visit short asap. We asked for the check and boxes, he didn't ask one thing. Didn't ask if the food was good or if we needed something after saying we planned on being here a while. Our visit was less than 30 mins. What a major shame.

Hubby & I had dinner here last night for the first time & it will be the last…read more I had high hopes for this place since it's a dive bar. Some of the best food comes from dive bars, but un not this place. One of the stars is for the service. Our server was super sweet & personable. She did a good job for what she was dealing with. It's a large place & there were only 2 servers. Hubby got his favorite beer on draft. That's where the other star comes from. The beer was good & it was ice cold. I had Tito's & cranberry juice tall. It was a weak pour. Normally after 2 tall there is no way I would drive. But after 2 I was totally fine. We started With the breaded mushrooms. When they came out the first time, they were not hot & the middle was so cold it was a step above frozen. We let our server know. She apologized & took them back. The next time they were hot & cooked in the middle. We both enjoyed them. Hubby got a Rueben sandwich & fries. He said the sandwich was okay, it was most likely Boars head deli meat. His fries were way undercooked. I got the cheesy Mac. It was not good. I took 2 bites & pushed it aside. It has jalapeños in the sauce. I don't like jalapeños. I don't like the heat, taste or even smell of them. The toast that comes with it would have been good if the had toasted it. I didn't even finish 1 of the pieces. We brought the cheesy Mac home for our daughter. Like me, she loves Mac n cheese, but she also likes jalapeños. She took 1 bite & said it was awful. She threw it away. Great cold beer, but no reason to return since hubby can get cold beer elsewhere we go.

Servers spend a lotiftime socializing with the chefs and other servers. Have to remind them numerous times for water or napkins or for another round which is crazy because we have sat with empty drinks many times for more than 20 minutes. No, this is not every server, but it hapoens more often than not. Also, could they make the menu more versatile?ABSOLUTELY! It is... okay. As far as bar food goes, it is also mid at best. There should be better salads, more vegetarian options- shrimp tacos, beyond burgers, etc. More fun appetizers- maybe a trio with mozzarella sticks, calamari, fried pickles/zucchini, and pizza that actually tastes good! Shrimp tacos, maybe shoe string fries, and desserts like pazooki, churros, applepie, brownie, etc. Surprising that the menu is not better when Marjerles had so many great things on the menu, and the manager is the same. We come for the ambiance, but the service and menu need improvement.
