Quesadilla with carne asada
Mel Y.

Came on a Saturday to watch a football game. It was a bit empty since ASU wasn't playing this weekend. They were kind enough to change the channel. Plenty of seating and lots of college kids. Booths were spacious and also lots of tables. Decent food and drink choices. Prices are normal for the location. Would recommend for those in the area needing a place to cool down and catch a game!

Service was amazing by Cassidy, very kind and was helpful right away and was very attentive to everyone that was coming up to the bar

Fuuuun! Food was good, fast, waitresses knew the place and menu. They also have a great happy hour and in a great location. Entering was weird, as you have to take the stairs or elevator but once you get it on the second floor, you're good. Very nice sport bar for a college area. I ordered the wings (lemon pep and chili) and a burger with a couple drinks.

Inside

Walked in and there were no one there besides staff a maybe two people. The host asked how many and when we said 11, she set down the menus and told us "just sit wherever". It smelt bad inside and there wasn't chair sat all of the tables. Staff just watched us kinda look around. We decided to try the patio and after stepping over vomit and cigarette butts, we reached a sticky table and again, there wasn't seating set up fully and we didn't know if we could move things? We also didn't have menus or anyone checking on us the whole we were walking around confused. Fiancé went to the bathroom and said he decided to hold it because it was so gross. For sure a night scene vibe but at 12 on a Sunday, we'd expect some cleanliness and service. We left and no one even said a word. Wouldn't recommend unless you're coming for the night scene!

See all

This is my second time at this location because I can't get enough! Any chance I can bring my dog…read moreto a patio, I am there! The outdoor patio is relaxed and has a great ambiance. There is hardly ever a wait time the staff is very attentive and kind. The location is great and centralized in Tempe. Food is great, and they have a reserve happy hour after 8 pm where you can get $4 beers?! Sign me up! The food is great priced, fresh, and very diverse, where else in the valley can you get poutine, salmon salad, and chicken egg rolls in the same day? Most notably, their Brickhouse wings with Oatmeal Stout BBQ were so good I had to come back for more (no picture, we devoured these almost immediately). The beer-flavored desserts and beer-themed menu items really kept on theme for the brewery. The beers are exceptional, and they keep a rotating tap of local beers and classic favorites. I especially love that they partner with local producers to create their food and beverage menus. This place is a must-visit.

This is a great place to watch some sports games or UFC fights. The server was friendly and the…read moreservice was good. Four peaks is by ASU and definitely has a college brewery vibe. Lots of fun there for sure. The food is not bad! Pretty standard bar food. The AZ chicken rolls are one of my favorite appetizers. But this time I got the Brezelburger. Service: 8/10 Value: 6/10 Flavor: 8/10 Ambiance: 9/10 Cleanliness: 8/10 Overall I had a great time here and will definitely be back sometime in the future. It is a great place to go to have a couple of drinks and watch some games.
