Great Brewery, friendly staff and service was amazing. we stopped here for lunch on a HOT day, and this place was welcoming for our dog and us. Burgers were cooked perfectly. Definitely try the fries! they have a great selection of beer read more

I recently met up with a friend at this place last Friday night -- my first time here and I have to say that the ambiance, the laid back environment was great. As I viewed the menu, the Tomatillo Chicken Tacos looked delicious so I ordered a couple. I took one bite and while that one bite was good and flavorful, the tacos were too spicy for me. I can't eat spicy or acidic foods because I have an ulcer that I have to be careful with. My server was the absolute best as he had asked for my honest opinion and got it, then offered me the opportunity to change out my food to something different, which was so appreciative. I ordered a burger to replace my tacos, which was also delicious (and without any spice). This place is fantastic for social interaction, dining, and/or just unwinding after a long day. It feels relaxing to just be in the moment when you are here. If you're looking for a cool vibes kind of brewery/restaurant, a good social scene that doesn't have drama with its customers, this is a place to go. Lastly, thank you to my awesome server that evening! read more

Meh, I don't get the reviews at all. After living next to it for 3 years, I finally got the PB&J burger that everyone is talking about, with the signature fries, and it was a massive disappointment. First it was very expensive, a burger and a small side of fries for over $23 after everything for a take out order. Second the burger just tasted like nothing special, like I can't point to a thing that it is that good. I have tried others that are in the area that makes a much better burger. For smashed burger type, try Detroit corny grill in Gilbert. For a regular hatch burger with really good fries, try Fate brewing in Tempe. read more

We visited on a late Saturday afternoon, and were seated quickly on the patio. Surprised as the bar area both inside and the patio that is in the rear off the parking lot were full. Very nicely decorated with their theme. The street view seating was shaded and the misters were on which kept it cool. Street traffic was a bit loud but not too bad, the front parking buffered the noise. Our server greeted us quickly and was jam packed with suggestions of comparable commercial beers to their brand of beers. Not going to lie, their brand is delicious and actually a bit better than the commercial brand We had their Dead out & Dont F it up. Dead out is a must try, I'm not in any way a dark ale person but this was by far more tasty than the Don't f it up. However both were wonderful. The food is not a reason to go. We both had tacos and shared onion rings. The meat was cooked perfectly but the sauce was less palatable, flavors were too overpowering and drenched sauce. It killed the flavor of the meat itself. When mentioned it to the server, she simply shrugged and stated they do have "heat", I said that it was too much on there, lifted a piece with my fork and it was dripping, covered. Heat was not the issue, too much was. The sauce itself was tasty, but took away from the dish. Had it been on a chip of a fry dipped into it would have been better. Duly noted, next ask for it on the side, let the meat itself shine through. Lastly, the onion ring were truly disappointing. Arrived a very cool room temperature. They arrived few minutes after the tacos, and after reminding the server as we had ordered them. Almost felt as if they were ready on time by the kitchen staff, she was purely overwhelmed and simply, forgot. Small portion and my opinion not an option on my future visit again. Soggy and very greasy, perhaps would have been better if served hot and on time. Worth a visit, may go again. Maybe. Definitely go for the extensive list of brews, here is where they shine. read more

I was seeing those frozen margaritas online and I knew I just needed to try them! So happy we did, even came on a Monday so they were half off. They were delicious and can still taste the tequila. Tried some onion rings absolutely delicious as well, those were the full size. Ambiance was cool, sat outside and misters were working overtime. Shout out the bartenders super nice people. read more

08/10/2026 My mom and I love the Baselayer Burrito ($17 + $2 to add egg), but it was not as good today. The burrito size seemed smaller today, which would've been fine with us, but other factors made it unsatisfactory. There were lots of beef fat instead of meat - many small pieces, and I also got a thick piece of fat, like an inch thick. I should've taken a picture of it. This had never happened before in the dozens of times I've had the burrito. There was also a random coconut flavor that was never there before, and it did not pair well with the other flavors. Another change was the burrito didn't come with a side before, and this time it was served with tortilla chips. The chips were okay, but I'd rather have more duck fat fries. Service was good to start, and he checked in with us shortly after we got our food. Then we didn't see our server for a long time after that. So we sat there for a bit after finishing our food. I hope they take this feedback into consideration because I'm willing to come back and give the burrito another try. read more

We really wish this place was closer, because it's one of our new favorites! The vegan Earth bowl add chicken is absolutely amazing! It has all of the good stuff, spring mix, sweet potatoes, beats, wheat berries, and a few other things - and the herb vinaigrette tops it off perfectly! My husband loves the burgers he usually tries the burger of the month. The beer selection is fantastic! Can't wait for the fall when we can sit on the patio, it gets very busy on weekends! read more

I've been to this brewery a few times. The food is always fresh and they have plenty of drinks to choose from. They have both indoor and patio (with misters) seating. They're usually busy at dinner time, even on the weekdays, but we've never had to wait long. I like to get their side salad with a breaded chicken breast cut on top. Their breading for their fried chicken is delicious. Highly recommend! read more

Our search for the best burgers in Phoenix brought us to Arizona Wilderness Brewing. We visited on a Friday around 6:00 PM; the place was hopping, and the atmosphere was great with basketball playing on several TVs. We were greeted and seated immediately. We started with a beer and the cauliflower appetizer--both were amazing! Just a heads-up: the cauliflower is a little spicy, but totally addictive. Our burgers arrived quickly. The onion rings and duck fat fries were on point with unique seasoning, and the homemade ketchup and pickles were a welcome surprise. We tried the PB&J burger, which was both creative and delicious. Overall, it was a fun "dinner adventure," and we will definitely be back! read more

They're known for their beer and burgers. And on those, they delivered! I enjoyed the darker beers, the amber, and their award winning light beer. The service was very kind and quick, even on a Saturday. They have plenty of porch seating as well if you like that. I got the Oklazona Burger (I think is how you spell it) and it was utterly amazing. Juicy, spicy, soft, and perfect. One of my favorite burgers. The tacos didn't fair as well though, with the fish being the only liked flavor and the other three (carne asada, pork, and avocado/veggie) not being big hits. I still highly recommend the burgers though and will definitely be back to enjoy them more often! read more

It's been quite a few years since I was last here, but boy was it as delicious as I remembered. The Wicked Chicken sandwich I got was really flavorful with the sauce they add, the bacon was crispy, and the chicken was tender and moist too. The duck fat fries are classic and rich without being heavy. I love how refreshing their dessert blossom tea is and great as an Arnold Palmer. I highly recommend coming here. Our server was friendly and checked in on us often. The brewhouse vibes and outdoor seating is a great casual spot to meet with friends or coworkers. read more

Tasty beer and really good burgers! I dined here a couple of days ago with a group of friends and really enjoyed the experience. The staff was very friendly and the food was outstanding. They had a lovely pilsner, which I really liked, and I opted for the chicken sandwich on sourdough, which was really a treat. I'm a big fan of the Arizona wilderness, and equally a fan of the namesake brewery/restaurant! read more

I hate writing negative reviews. My boyfriend and I come here at least once a month since he loves the chicken and waffles and I love the PB&J burger. The two stars are for the service. This only happens when we go with Latinos. The last 3 times we went with Latinos the service has been terrible, so much that my boyfriend pointed it out it's only when we come with Latinos. Even when it's not busy, we have to find our server and request to order, once we didn't get napkins, and silverware even though we asked twice. The food comes out great. It's just like we get ignored. And it's not like we order difficult things or we are rude. We still tip good because I've worked in the industry. But I think maybe the staff needs inclusive training because any other time we have good service. read more

Love this place, great staff and great food with rotating beers. You won't leave hungry that's for sure

Came here for lunch a few days ago and it was my first visit. We sat at the awkward end of the bar and Riley was our server. She was very sweet and recommended a few of the popular burgers, as well as what they're known for, their PB&J burger. So, that's what I ordered (always gotta go for a good "known for"). Unfortunately, there was BARLEY a whisper of peanut butter. It was a literally a burger patty, with really good bacon and a smidgen of jalapeño jelly. Very disappointing to say the least. However, I am still rating this a four stars, because our server, Riley, was great, my boyfriend liked his smash burger and the fries were a delight, but....if you have a PB&J burger, it would help if it actually had some PB. read more

Excellent food and cocktails with Gen Z service. Not a dis but feels dead on. It was loud near the bar but not so you couldn't talk across the table. The burgers were delish. It's a very thin smash burger so maybe get the double. The single was plenty for me. And I tried the beet salad which I passionately love beets so it was great to find. Tried the fries too which . Over all I think it was an amazing experience read more

I stopped in with hopes of having some Octoberfest grub. They delivered. The Schnitzel was tasty, nice breading. My only gripe, it was kinda tough. Cooked about 2-3 minutes per side too long. The mushroom gravy was good, and I'm not a mushroom eater at all. Kicked the chicks off to the side. I had a beer flight as well. I was on my motorbike so I didn't finish all of the beers but they were good brews. My first time at this or any of the Wilderness spots. I'd fldef return. read more

Great service, quality food and drinks! My husband's favorite is the PB and J burger along with the NA options! Love this place

I actually swung by this spot back in 2023 and when I wasn't pregnant again so I was still on my beer kick! Moving from the Seattle area where I really got heavily into beer tastings, this brewery definitely hit the spot for me. I had one of their Hazy IPA's on tap and it was the right amount of hazy for me for sure. Also ordered their pulled pork poutine fries and it went so well with my beer. The service was also extremely friendly. I'll have to swing by again in a year or so after I'm done being a cow for my youngest baby. ;) read more

Met friends for lunch. Place had nice open seating inside and out. We chose inside because it was a little breezy. Three bad burgers and one bad chicken sandwich. Burgers were big, cooked to order, but bun was excessively large and hard to manage. Same was true for chicken sandwich, the Sorono , a grilled breast with shoe string onion rings as a topping. Wait staff was very attentive. Food was average. There are better choices in the area. read more

The wicked chicken sandwich was my favorite here. The picked onions and jalapeno add so much flavor. The staff is friendly

I really enjoy a craft brewery. There's nothing better than trying a bunch of different brews. This place was awesome. It had a great vibes to it. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. We sat at the bar counter area, and hung out for like an hour and a half. I tried a total of 3 beers. Each one was unique and delicious. I had 2 different IPAs and 1 sour. IPAs are my favorite type of beer, and these were brewed perfectly. They had nice flavors and just hit the spot. The sour was a great one as well. This was definitely a chill place to hangout and enjoy some beers. read more

I found this brewing company on accident while looking for a place to spend a few hours while waiting for my son. The location is the flagship/original location for the Arizona Wilderness Brewing Company and is quite large, with multiple seating areas and concepts onsite. My wife and I sat in the rear outdoor patio section. It was a warmish January afternoon and the picnic tables and classic rock made the afternoon (with a couple of $8 Refuge IPA's (16oz)) fly by. This is an outstanding place and if/when I return to the Gilbert/Mesa area (this spot seems to be in the border of both communities), I will definitely stop here again. Oh.... Parking seemed tight, but it circles rhe building and I located a few spots on the "storage" side of the brewing company. read more

Seven years later, this place still holds up. The service here is always great. They take good care of you and our food came out fast and was so hot and fresh. My favorite is the Wilderfries that came with my burger: fried in duck fat and seasoned with rosemary and thyme. Crispy, hot and fantastic. I also ordered the single patty smash burger. They serve it on a toasted Noble Portuguese bun which elevates things, and the flavor of the beef is great coupled with beer mustard, Colby cheese and Americana sauce. (Pickles and onions) I think I prefer the AZ Wilderness burger overall which is just their classic burger but this one was still enjoyable. This time of year it's nice to sit out on the patio to enjoy your meal. read more

Visited today for the first time and had to try the PB & J burger. I started off with a beer flight from their impressive collection. All 5 beers were very good with the Every Day is Earth day being a stand out. So on to the main event. The onion rings are amazing. The sriracha maple ketchup was the best dipping sauce I have ever had with onion rings! You must order these onion rings. On to the PB&J burger. Don't be fooled by the name, these flavors are not what you think and they pair together great. I would highly recommend you give it a try. Jacque the bartender/server was amazing and all of her recommendations were spot on. I did not expect to give a five star review to a burger joint but Arizona Wilderness earned it today! Give it a try and you will not be disappointed. "FIMP" Food is my Passion read more

My go-to place when I'm in the mood for a spot to hang and want good food! There was a wait for a regular table so we ended up sitting in the tap room area and were able to get full food and beer service! I had the Jitterbug Perfume sour which was a beautiful maroon shade as it contains beets! As for the food we shared the elote dip, Wicked Chicken Sandwhich, and tacos (Al a carte). You really can't go wrong-- everything was amazing! It was a busy Saturday evening so service in the tap room was a bit slower, but we didn't mind as we weren't in a rush. read more

Overall a 3.5/5, but rounding up because Arizona Wilderness Brewing does stand out for its commitment to locally sourced ingredients and sustainability. There are so many breweries and pubs around here that there's pretty tough competition. As other reviewers have stated, their duck fat fries are great! So crispy and the herbs really elevate it. They can be a little heavy handed with the salt to the point where you may see salt piles on your fries, but at least the salt granules are larger and can be easily swept off. Although their fries are great on their own, they unfortunately struggle to strand up when loaded. I'm not sure how they do it, but we've been to places where fries can remain crispy even when loaded with toppings. Their poutine is still tasty though if you don't mind your fries soggy. Their burgers have great beefy flavor, but after trying a few of their burger options, my partner and I also feel that some other places do their unique burger stylings a bit better. A lot of the toppings overwhelm rather than contribute to the overall burger. There's plenty of searing both indoors and out. You have bar top, high table, and regular table style seating for indoors. There's plenty of 4 person tables outdoors under shade and also with misters on if it's hot out. Indoor seating offers plenty of viewing for sports. Service is also pleasant. Due to how they source their ingredients, the overall menu is on the pricier side. Although my partner and I prefer other breweries more, we do think it's still worth it to try visiting Arizona Wilderness Brewing at least once. read more
