On our way to the Lavendar festival and this looked like a decent place to stop. First impression was good, and the ice tea was ok, and the coffee wasn't great. We had the smothered breakfast burrito with red chili. I would expect a place like this so close to Hatch would have more heat and better flavor. It was ok, and I would eat here again, but definitely not a 4 or 5 star experience. read more

There are few choices of restaurants in Springerville/Eager. The food was ok. I ordered a bean and cheese burrito enchilada style. Did not have much flavor. The chips and salsa was the highlight. The salsa was delicious and the chips tasted homemade. The service was ok. I would only return due to not many other options for places to eat out. This restaurant would never survive in a big city with multiple choices for restaurants. read more

Trail Riders Restaurant - Bean and cheese burrito enchilada style. - American Near Me - Eagar, Arizona

Came here with a group of friends after a long day hitting the slopes. We all ordered different foods. I had a burger with two patties on it. I ordered it medium, and it came out rare. I was fairly disgusted (because I do not like anything more than medium) and I couldn't finish it. I'm a burger man, so everyone was surprised. We each had different experiences with our foods. What saved us was the incredible service by our server, who was friendly, courteous, and relatable. Although, our food was subpar, the service was great. read more

We stopped by as we were just passing through. The service was wonderful and so was the food. We would definitely come here again.

2nd time here. Hunting season last Nov and 4th of July weekend. Never had to wait to be seated, steady stream of patrons/families going in and out. Smiling servers and guests, immediately a good vibe when you enter. Love the rustic decor. Everyone enjoyed their food the 1st time, which is why we were all excited to come back the 2nd time. Juicy burgers, tasty tacos, crispy, not overly greasy fried fish. French dip was really good too, but I wanted to try something new this time. Prices are reasonable and the servings are hefty. Servers were quick and never let our drinks get empty. If we're in town again, we'll be back. read more

See all

I think I may have just eaten the best chicken fried steak ever. Didn't even need the steak knife.

Standard lunch offerings breakfast ends at 11am. Very accommodating for large parties. Excellent salad bar very fresh. Corn chowder was delicious. read more

We went for lunch/dinner and the food was incredibly average. You can tell from the food this place is supplied by one of the big food service companies as the food was obviously frozen then fried, grilled, etc... I had the fried buffalo chicken sandwich which was not a real chicken breast, but rather a fast-food type, super thin patty smothered in Red Hot sauce. It didn't come with cheese, but that's my fault for not reading the menu well enough. My wife had a burger, and it was also average. The sides of fries (both regular and sweet potato) were huge and tasted fine. The service was good. Overall, this place is OK, I wouldn't necessarily seek it our for lunch or dinner, but I also would not avoid the place. read more

Great service and food! Very much appreciate the display honoring our military. I have some specific allergies, and they were very supportive to ensure I could eat what I ordered. read more

We sunbird up here from mesa Az. its A great town and the people are wonderful. The food is superb! I love the hamburgers and the chicken basket. Honestly I haven't eaten anything else. My husband loves the salad bar. The staff is so sweet and friendly. They're closed on Monday. And it's a wonderful American patriotic business. tell your friends!!! read more

Awesome team of servers. Got in ordered and food was out fast! Was tasty and a good price!

Was in town for a basketball tournament last night and enjoyed a wonderful meal here with great service. I was totally impressed with the portion size and the quality of each meal that was served. I have eaten here before and every time I've had a great experience. Already thinking about going back this morning for breakfast. read more

Trail Riders Restaurant - Awesome decor! - American Near Me - Eagar, Arizona

We love their breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The service is always good. There is restaurant seating, and a separate bar area. The bar area has tvs. The atmosphere is well done. We consider it one of the best restaurants on the mountain. Love the pasole on Wednesdays. Great chips and salsa. Prices are reasonable. Best place in town to eat. read more

The only reason this place makes it...no competition...menu is the same as everything else in town. Poor service, bland food...next.

Our service was perfect, but the rest was far from it. The salad bar had to be scrounged through as it was near empty. We both ordered the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes. The steak was straight off a food truck, think heat and eat from Schwann's. The potatoes were instant. The vegetables were canned. We won't be back. read more

Amazing restaurant! Their burgers are very good! Just make sure to be clear on how you want your burger cooked. :)

My wife and I came to Springerville, stayed next door at the Best Western and then had breakfast the next morning, before moving on to Flagstaff, AZ. We had just sat down at a booth facing the street and started talking. One of the local folks came up to the table, and stood there staring at us. My wife asked if we were in his favorite spot. Surprisingly, he said yes and acted if we were expected to move to a different table. Our waitress brought the drinks and said nothing. So much for the family atmosphere. He eventually noticed we were not getting up, gave me a dirty look, and went to another table. Upon arrival the breakfast(s) were nice, piping hot, and rather larger than expected. However "she that must be obeyed" enjoyed her breakfast with hot tea. My next visit was at lunch, and the place was busy. I ordered the Hatch green chili burger, and had a salad instead of fries (substitution costs $1.99). I grabbed a salad bowl and found the "salad bar" which was smaller than a single person table top. It had been hit hard, and the lettuce was very low, and wilted. Overall, below average, but I wanted a salad, and this was the best I could do at the time. The Hatch burger was next. The burger patty was ~ 6 ounces, well cooked, no seasoning, no cheese, lettuce, tomato, and small onion slice on the side. When I lifted the bun, it was untoasted, the patty was laid on the bottom half, and a piece of wet, canned, chili was placed haphazardly on the patty. No condiments on the side. I know what freshly roasted Hatch green chilis are, and when in season, I purchase, roast, clean, and freeze my own. Hatch, New Mexico is about 240 miles from Springerville, and these chilis had never been canned closer than that. Burger was OK, but the chili was sub par. Overall, a good place for breakfast, OK for lunch, but improvement can be made. read more

Just went to Trail Riders this morning and it was hands down the BEST breakfast I've ever had in my life. And I'm a big breakfast eater! I had the huevos rancheros, which is a pretty common item. It had two corn tortillas stacked with tender shredded beef and refried beans between. The green chili sauce was amazing and the eggs a perfect over-medium. My husband had the "Big Wrangler," bacon, eggs, potatoes and pancakes... I'm not kidding when I say we talked about the pancakes and buttermilk syrup all day long. We discussed how amazing they were to the point that I decided I had to write a review (my first, actually). If you are staying in the white mountains and like pancakes, you will be doing yourself an injustice if you don't go there and try them!!! read more

So glad we chose to take a slightly different route to get to Albuquerque. It took us through Eager and some other cool small towns! Everything we tried at Trail Riders was super delicious. The server was friendly and recommended the route that stops at Pie Town. We owe her big time because that was the best pie ever and worth the drive! read more

BEST RESTAURANT IN TOWN! My husband & I eat here multiple times a week & LOVE it! I would recommend: Breakfast: *Trail boss special *pumpkin pancakes (seasonal) *buttermilk syrup Lunch: *grilled chicken wrap *enchilada plate *bacon cheese burger Dinner: *ground sirloin *chicken fried steak *Timmy taco plate *always get green chili sauce on everything! So good! read more

We didn't find anything special here. The $5.99 one-trip-through-the-salad-bar was priced right. We enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa. One of us had the fish taco plate and another had the enchilada plate, and they were both ordinary. If you're looking for a filling meal, this is the place for you. Guess we should have figured that out from the name of the restaurant. read more

Not a fan. Everyone raved about this place but I have not enjoyed one meal here. They buttermilk syrup is good but the pancakes were dry. I will try the waffle next time. The gravy is pretty horrible super plans and chalky like. My boyfriend enjoyed his mushroom swiss burger but I have yet to try that. I will give in one more to but I'm not a fan. read more

Great food and service. Would highly recommend when you are in town. The bar is also great. Good music playing all night.

We were staying in Greer and saw this place with high ratings so we gave it a try for breakfast. I was craving pancakes and as I was reading the description on the menu it mentioned buttermilk syrup as one of their specialties. I have never heard of this before so I gave it a try. OMG - it was AMAZING!! I would highly recommend eating here and trying this buttermilk syrup! FYI - they also sell it so you can take some home. Yummy!! read more

Great food, prices were VERY reasonable and the service was fast and friendly. We had breakfast and our meals were outstanding! The biscuits were baked fresh (large, flavorful and perfect texture) and the gravy was also extremely fresh. The kids had pancakes with their buttermilk syrup which was outstanding and reason enough to return! Thank you Trail Riders for making this hungry (and dirty!) camping family of 5 VERY happy on a Sunday morning :) read more

Dinner was so good we came back for breakfast. And the breakfast was so good we're seriously considering coming back tomorrow. The fries are amazing. The buttermilk syrup is amazing. The prices were great too! Would come back to Eagar just to eat here again. read more

Skip the continental breakfast at your hotel and eat here. Good food, clean establishment and the staff are on it. read more

Trail Riders Restaurant - Relleno breakfast. - American Near Me - Eagar, Arizona

The bar area is great to watch a game! The wings are my favorite for dinner if they have them available but you can never go wrong during breakfast. Just wish they were open on Mondays. read more

This place was fabulous. I had the chicken fried steak and it was so tender and flavorful! Everyone was friendly and it was so nice to feel "normal". read more

They have a little bit of everything. Mexican, American, BBQ and wonderful breakfast. All options are delicious you cannot go wrong here.

Staying in Greer over Memorial Day weekend and needed a place to eat on Sunday this was the only place open. We gave it a try and was pleasantly surprised. I had the hatch burger which was flavorful. My wife got the enchiladas and said it was very good, even the beans and rice. For a place that does traditional American food and Mexican they pulled both off. The staff was wonderful Kamri (I'm pretty sure that was her name) was our waitress and she was very helpful and always smiling. I'd come here again for sure. read more

Trail Riders Restaurant - Hatch Burger - American Near Me - Eagar, Arizona

We have been here a few times while visit Springerville. Each time we have had good service!! The food has been ok. The first time I ordered hot wings they were outstanding... the next time they were terrible. Chicken fried steak is great but their potato are terrible. We didnt have anything bad enough to stop us from coming back and trying something new. Plus the restaurant is clean and service is nice and friendly. So would we go back yes. Is it a must go to place to stop when you're in town, not really. read more

Good food and very clean. We sat in the bar, and they had at least 4 TV's on with football games, which is good as they say it's a sports bar . Very nice place for a small town. My fajita salad was good and my husband had the burger with fries which was also good. Very pleased with the service. Recommended read more

Excellent Mexican food! Best taco and green chili sauce I have had. We will be back!

Solid Food, the Green Chile Turkey Melt was on point. Waffle Sweet Potato Fries were crispy and had good flavor. Friendly service in the Bar while watching the games. Great spot! read more

Great food. Mom had the French dip and loved it. Meat was tender and she said it was the best French dip and French fries she's had. I had the hatch green chili burger w/o bun. It was good and the one trip salad was simple but fresh and very good. J had the chicken sandwich and it was moist and good. Our waitress Kourtney was outstanding! We will go back when in the area. read more

Excellent service, fast, hot food, huge portions, quaint western decor. All in all a nice surprise next to the Best Western in Eager.

Trail Riders is a great local resturant and a must try in Eagar. The service was phonemonal. Our waitress wasn't pushy and was very respectful. She took our orders and checked on us multiple times. The food was not the best, but still very good. I had the combination plate and it was great, but not the best. The fried taco was greasy but the enchilada was perfect. The rice and beans were a little much but very good none the less. The chips and salsa was the best part. With multiple types of chips and a great salsa, the appetizer was the best! Overall, I enjoy Trail Riders and recommend to every one in Eagar or Springerville. read more

This place is amazing. I had the steak and enchiladas, OMG. The sirloin steak was better than some ribeye steaks I've had. The green chile sauce was delicious. I will be eating here everyday until I have to go back to Ohio. read more
