Amazing food, a pretty good assortment of beers , and a decent sized place for groups. But make sure you have at least half of your group in attendance before you make a reservation in-house.

The veggie panini was awesome & the pub fries are everything fries should be, get the Newcastle BBQ for dip . Veggie friendly menu. Is a cool place for groups. Reverse Happy Hour 9:30-close everyday!!!

Laurie Vermillion

Great Happy Hour apps: Queso Dip , Grilled Cheeseburger Sliders OR Spicy Chicken Sliders : juicy, 2 for $6.95 "Late Night " menu: BBQ White Cheddar Burger , Sonoran Enchilada , or Fish Tacos $14-$17. Fun

The beer selection is out of this world for any beer lover. The seasonal items are always delicious, & the bartenders are always rocking

Melissa Lewis

The burger and fries are a must! The fires are so good. The place was really nice and the people are friendly and helpful.

Melissa B

Try the Orange Chicken . Even tough it is a pub and grill, their asian food is great! Their french fries are delicious as well so make sure to get a side order!

Christine Yarboro-Larson

Pros:Conveniently located at Tempe Market Place. Great selection of beer ! Food was pretty darn good. You can make reservation online. Con: Had to yell to hear the person across the table from us.

Shelly Patreaux

So nice to see a restaurant with a great LOCAL beer selection . Very vegetarian friendly and love the seasonal selections !

Cathy Hammel

Yummy salads and awesome atmosphere. Great for a date night , girl's night, and/or guy's night. Great service and reasonable prices.

The spicy macaroni and cheese is so legendary that I got it again here. Also, they have a lot of good, dark beers .

Reverse happy hour 9:30 to close, the pizza was delicious and the music was not so loud that you couldn't have a conversation, will return

Try the Snake River Burger or any pizza.They have happy hour between 3pm-6pm and 9pm-close! You can't go wrong with whatever you eat or drink!

Ms. 4 §q@®€ Qu€€n

Nachos are great! Try the pear cider or their version of angry orchard for something different. :-)

Sergey Vorontsov

Open late (for happy hour !) when everything else in the Marketplace is closed. Looks a little like a nightclub .

Jason Sorensen

Fun location with a classic pub-style feel. However, like a true pub it becomes extremely noisy when at capacity.

Alexa Huckaby

My waitress Amber is VERY attractive ... besides if u want a hot server..... go to twin peaks north Scottsdale. Thirsty lion has awesome food :-)

Puggles McSnorts

The beer selection is fantastic! You can't go wrong with a sandwich ! The salads have hardly any chicken in them! And the summer menu is ehh...

David LaSpaluto

Over 50 beers on tap , many of them local (Four Peaks, San Tan , Lumberyard, Nimbus, Grand Canyon, Sonoran). Try San Tan Devil's Ale if you like flavorful, hoppy ales .

Cylee Gutting

I would go as far to say that this place has the best happy hour in all of Tempe. The food is great. My favorite is the calamari .

Nick Merth

Yes there is food, but the beer selection is great. Try their sampler to get a taste of a few.
