Finding parking was completely stress-free. The inside has a really cool rustic vibe with an awesome cowboy theme and unique hanging artifacts. They even have hot and cold water access, which made washing up after our hike incredibly convenient. As for the food - wow! We ordered burgers and they were cooked perfectly, super juicy, and packed with flavor. The sides of fries were very generous too. Top-notch service rounded out a great experience. I missed getting pictures, but trust me, this spot is fantastic for unwinding.

We told her we were just having cocktails and she sat us in her section. Within minutes, our cocktails arrived. We asked if she'd hate us if we ordered appetizers.

I thought fish and chips with one side. I got fish with 1 side. I also got the medium, but it came with just 3 pieces of fish, average size. I could have clarified at the counter, but I didn't. Besides the food, the atmosphere was pretty cool and the staff was very friendly. I would just suggest you make sure you know what you are getting. Cheers!

We enjoyed Easter Sunday breakfast at Crosswinds. Breakfast is served all day…read more We were seated promptly at a window where we had a great view of the Mogollon Rim and the airport runway, where small planes land and take off. We both had sunny side up eggs, bacon, hash browns, corned beef hash, delicious fluffy pancakes and bottomless coffee. Everything was piping hot and delicious. They also have a full menu for lunch and dinner. The burgers served at the table next to us looked awesome. This place reminded us of a typical diner back east in New Jersey: happy servers, plentiful and delicious hot and fresh food, great coffee and fresh baked home made pie. So if you find yourself in Payson and need a great meal with a family friendly vibe, go to Crosswinds. They have plenty of free parking too.

Ever since I started flight training, I have been told that Payson has great pie. Now that I'm a…read moreprivate pilot, I decided to fly in from Phoenix with my friend for breakfast and pie. We arrived around 7:30am, which was right before it started getting busy. The view is pretty cool. The restaurant is overlooking the runway. After checking in at the front, we were given a table within minutes. Then, our waitress came up and asked us what we wanted to drink. Eventually, we decided what to order and she came back to take our order. The food didn't take long--I'd say about 15 minutes. The food was delicious, to say the least. We both ordered a Western Omelette and shared an order of French Toast. I also took an apple pie and some other baked goods back home with me. The pie was also delicious! The only reason for my 4 stars is because of the service. Some of the employees seemed annoyed to be there and help us. While I understand that the restaurant was busy, you should still maintain composure and try to remain calm under stress. Having worked at a restaurant, I understand the feeling, but you can't let it get to you. Other than that, great little restaurant. I'd come here again.

The service felt a bit off, as our waitress seemed pretty frazzled, which may explain the mix-ups. On the positive side, the blueberry croissant was delicious, and the carne asada breakfast was good. There's definitely potential here, but the details need to be more consistent to make the experience really stand out.
