Blake&#x27;s Lotaburger

After driving for 15 hours, we finally stopped for the night, checked into our hotel, and…read moreimmediately realized we needed food before anything else. A few of the places recommended to us had already closed, but I had read that Junkyard had an amazing pulled pork BBQ sandwich. Since we definitely weren't dressed for anything fancy, I told my fiancé that a brewery sounded perfect. When we pulled up and saw that the place was veteran-owned, it immediately felt meant to be. My fiancé is a veteran as well, so that made it even more special. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly by the staff and told to sit wherever we liked. We looked around for a bit but eventually settled at the bar -- and I'm so glad we did. While we were there, we ended up chatting with the bartenders and other patrons, and everyone made us feel genuinely welcome. After such a long day on the road, it felt less like stopping at a brewery and more like walking into a place full of friends. Great food, great atmosphere, and even better people. We'll absolutely be back!

We stayed here as a Harvest Host and had a nice experience. The service was great and very nice,…read morethe barbecue food was SO good and the ambiance interesting as this please used to be a junkyard/mechanic/auto parts store. It went from that to junkyard/brewery/food truck/auto parts store and now it's a junkyard/ brewery/barbeque inside and they might sell parts here now and again. They have it set up kind of quaint and worth the stop to check it out.

The sandwich was absolutely delicious--fresh ingredients, great flavor, and made just how we like it. If we had to give one tiny piece of constructive feedback, it would be to space out the ingredients a bit more evenly so every bite has a little bit of everything. But honestly, that's just nitpicking--because overall, it was fantastic. The music playing was a great vibe--fun, upbeat, and made the place feel welcoming. And the view from this location? Unreal. Definitely not something you expect from a Subway, but it made the whole meal feel like an experience. The staff were quick, efficient, and polite--got us in and out with zero hassle. Plus, they had such great energy--hype team vibes all around! They were cheering each other on, throwing out "You go girl!" and hyping each other up like they were working a red carpet, not a sandwich line. It made the whole atmosphere feel genuinely fun and positive. And can we talk about the soda machine? Fully stocked, everything was bubbly and flavorful (which, let's be honest, is not always the case these days). Highly recommend this location if you're in the area. Clean, well-run, and just genuinely enjoyable. We'll definitely be back next time we're nearby!

It's more than just a pit stop; it's a cool, modern tribute to Diné culture with some of the best food on the road. The Highlight: The "Soo Big Burger" is the star of the show. You can get it on a standard bun, but the move is definitely ordering it on fresh Navajo Fry Bread. It's made with 100% Navajo Beef, and the quality is obvious from the first bite. If you like heat, be sure to add the green chile for that authentic Southwest kick. Final Verdict: Whether you're a local or just passing through to see the monuments, this spot is a "must."
