Just rating the margaritas and the karaoke. Margaritas were good. Karaoke had a nice stage, good mics, and a strong crowd. Regulars get more chances to sing than visitors though. Karaoke end at 12AM. read more

Great place to watch sports. Service and food great. Try the enormous pretzel with creamy crab dip. Nachos are gigantic portion. The fish and chips looked good. Ordered their daily special 4 huge bacon wrapped shrimp on top of seasonal vegetables ( carrots and broccoli cooked al dente) and garlic mashed potatoes $20. Fantastic! Not enough room to try their desserts. Would come back!! read more

Went with a group for lunch on a friday. Large space with lots of seating options inside and out. Food was good. I had the lasagna roll. Their homemade garlic rolls were not great IMHO. They make their pasta in house which is a bonus. Service was good. They did bring all the other orders out several minutes before mine which isnt ideal. A gust of wind blew one of the outdoor umbrellas down around our table which as startling. The manager did stop by out table later and check that we were ok and gave us a 20% discount on the ticket. Overall good dinning experince. read more

I am absolutely oozing with gratitude for the incredible experience I had at Boxcar Bar & Grill! If you are looking for the ultimate sports destination in Denver, look no further. The energy here is unmatched--the "sports vibe" is curated perfectly with plenty of screens and a crowd that is passionate but welcoming. It's the kind of place where every seat feels like the best seat in the house, making it the perfect spot to cheer our favorite colllege football team. But let's talk about the real MVP: the Christmas Pork Stew. It was, quite simply, over the top! The balance of the red and green chile was a masterpiece of flavor. The red chile brought that deep, earthy richness, while the green added a bright, spicy kick that kept me coming back for more. The pork was tender, and the flavors were so authentic to the Southwest. It's a dish that warms your soul and makes your taste buds dance. Between the high-octane atmosphere and that world-class stew, Boxcar has officially become my new favorite Santa Fe haunt. Thank you for the amazing hospitality! read more

Went at 11 pm in the evening and it was interesting as the place was popping with activity in the club part of the bar, yet they still had the diner part open. Managed to get a light supper of Tacos. Service was expectedly slow as their attention was turned towards the club being managed, but still warm despite the time of day. read more

Stopped in for a late lunch and was treated to delicious fish and chips. Yes, I know I was in New Mexico. Service was excellent. Food was good. Prices were a little high overall a good dining experience. read more

The service was very good. Our waitress was very attentive. The vibe of the place is very cool as well. Overall the food was pretty good. We got the buffalo chicken sandwich with Parmesan truffle fries. This dish was great. We also got the fish and chips. They were good too but the breading is extremely thick. For an appetizer the Bao Buns are good but they are more like tacos. The pork belly inside was amazing. read more

Drinks and food are good, however, rude staff when under stress. Do not advertise playing World Cup games if you are not prepared for the crowd! Out of glasses and 10 minutes for a beer is crazy, on top of hostess asking to seat other party at our single table. Rude when told no, and has not checked on us since!! Telling other groups they can like eat at our table?? Not asking us anything??? ALSO, maybe stop letting people in if you can't seat them!!!! That is NOT my problem!! *addition there are now people just eating their food off of our table while standing up!* read more

We held our Toy Drive here this year. It was a huge success and Boxcar people handled it well. Service was great and with a houseful of customers, it wasn't easy. They were right there to take orders and before we knew it, our drinks and food was served. They were even nice enough to let us know when we still had a few minutes left for happy hour. The large room we were in has a big bar and lots of tables to handle our large crowd. read more

The service is absolutely the worst. There's no consideration to the customer whatsoever. I would say if you ever need to go to boxcar have it delivered! Food is good, but they sure need better help than what they have. With all this said it's still worth the quality of food read more

Hostess extremely rude and unprofessional! She asked if we would allow others to sit at our table and we said NO. She then allowed people to eat off of our table while I sit there. She refused to wait on us after the fact. I would not recommend hosting a World Cup game if you are not prepared. It was not our fault we had to sit at a larger table. I've never had a host/server to be so unprofessional. read more

GET THE PRETZEL!! Service was great, they changed the channels for us when what we wanted to watch was not on, and let us sample a plethora of options read more

Great option for dinner and very accommodating when we asked to watch a specific baseball game in the midst of World Cup madness. Food was easy for kids and sophisticated enough for adults looking for somewhat refined options. read more

The Santa Fe Foodies met again at Boxcar, this time we must have had a group of several dozen for the annual Toy Drive. The place was packed! I think everyone I spoke to there loved the food. The service (thanks to Shyan and crew) was outstanding. Went for Happy Hour, where apps are 20% off. So my wife and I concentrated on those offerings. Had the Chicken Tenders because another Foodie recommended them. They were fine, but I'm not much of a chicken tender guy. Moist, tender, but how much can you do with fried tenders? Anyway, good but not my cup of tea. Now what blew me away was the Brussels Sprouts. A few years ago, you couldn't pay me to eat them, but I tried them from a good chef, and that changed my mind about at least trying them. Now I love them. And the rendition at Box Car is off the charts: braised (?), crispy, and perfectly al dente, cooked with bacon and cotija, and finished with a balsamic glaze. I may have to order this dish every time I go. If you're lukewarm to Brussels sprouts, do yourself a favor and try them here; you may end up a fan, as I am now. Lastly, we had the Jalapeño Poppers. The menu states they are the 'best poppers this side of the Mississippi'. I've spent little time on the opposite side of Mississippi, but I'll tell you these were the best I've had west of that state. Just outstanding! Yes, hot, but not brutal for a 30-year resident of NM. But you'll feel them. The cheese stuffing was terrific, and the bacon was excellent. I didn't expect them to be coated in a sumptuous batter and fried perfectly. YUM! Yes, it is loud here, but otherwise, this is a great place to eat, the food is outstanding and far better than I'd expect at a 'sports bar', and the service was stellar. read more

This place is so fun. Seemingly the only sports bar in town outside of chains like Buffalo Wild Wings. We watched 2 of the Nuggets playoff games here last week. The servers and bartenders are attentive and friendly, We especially loved the icy cold glasses with the beer. I highly recommend the pretzel with crab dip! read more

Boxcar Bar and Grill - Delicious pretzel with crab dip - New American Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

Road-tripped to Santa Fe in February midweek and explored the town & cute shops. It was difficult to find anything open around 2pm on a weekday, but we stumbled across this sports bar. Wanting to get a little tipsy before we walked more, we ordered a few flights and a giant pretzel! The Dark & Dangerous flight was super unique and so was the Fruity & Light flight! The Ex Novo - Kill the Sun was intense and high proof! It did the trick! The pretzel was REAL and thick and bready! The only way to do pretzels in my opinion! Classic slightly elevated bar food with large portions. Service was friendly! read more

4.5 stars. Excellent service and great bar food. If you are looking for a more typical American bar experience and something open late, you'll be happy here. They didn't skimp on the nachos and if you like fried pickles you won't be disappointed with the ones they've got here! read more

Boxcar Bar and Grill - Nachos and fried pickles - New American Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

Good service ! Nice staff. Food was lackluster. Cheese grits, great ! Burnt ends underwhelming. Burger was 9 inches tall. Inedible in this configuration. Onion rings are all breading (are these house made or bought -in ?) The dings are on food quality, otherwise it's a cool spot and we'll be back ! read more

I'm a Tequila connoisseur, and this place has a great selection of Agaves. Was looking forward to tasting several and maybe striking up a conversation while my wife shopped, but I simply never got served or even greeted after 10 minutes. Place was dead with just a few tables and 2 servers and a bar tender who clearly saw me. I left disappointed, but 3 stars for the selection. Horrid service. read more

We were fortunate to have a young lady named SO waiting on us. She made our evening exceptional. You're very fortunate to have her on staff. Kudos to her. You have such a wonderful menu and she had no problems answering every question we had about all the menu items we couldn't have asked for better food or service or ambience! Patrick and Nancy read more

Ambiance good, service so-so (one drink never arrived). But we were just there for a quick beer and a little bit to eat. You'd think in New Mexico that a bucket of chips with queso, guacamole, and salsa as sides would be a home run, but it was all but inedible. The queso tasted like it came out a Kraft Mac&Cheese box, the guac lacked any lime, onion and was very short on jalapeño, and the salsa was best of the three, but overly fire-roasted and clearly out of a jar. Not a fresh bite of anything. Server took the still -98% -full plate away and handed us the bill without even asking if there was a reason we did not eat it. Beer was good, and the fish taco was heavily breaded and greasy, but passable as bar food. Won't go back tho. read more

This place is a great spot if you are trying to catch a morning sports game. Breakfast menu has great staples and the breakfast burritos were so big we both did not finish them. We had a great server, he said he's there once a week but feels like he's a pro. The bar was so lively for 10am. Great people all around. read more

Super cool restaurant in Santa Fe! After flying from Phoenix to Albuquerque and driving to Santa Fe, we were hungry! I opened up the Yelp app and found boxcar was still open and noticed they had a huge variety of menu items to choose from. I started off with a cup of the fire roasted vegan chili, which was really good. The roasted poblano peppers in this chili gave it some heat and also a lot of flavor. I liked that the chili was organic as I believe organic food just tastes better. For the entree I ordered the veggie burger, which was also really good. It tasted like the burger was made in house and the fixins on the side were fresh and bright. I ordered this with sweet potato waffle fries, which were also REALLY good. They were super crispy and seasoned well. read more

The only real sports bar in downtown Santa Fe. TVs and seating everywhere, and a menu that satisfies the sports fan. It can get loud, which is appropriate when you're cheering hour team on! read more

Food was very good and our service was generally excellent. The wings we had were HUGE and the sauces were fantastic (smokehouse BBQ & Buffalo), not typical. Also enjoyed lasagna rolls and burnt ends. The only complaint I had was that we were there to watch March Madness and when one game ended, they left the audio set to the local news instead of switching it to the next game that was on most screens. I requested the flip the volume and they changed it to music instead. read more

Amazing service and great food quality for a bar highly impressed. Had the chicken quesadilla

We had just arrived into town and and we were a little hungry so we decided to come here for meal. The place was all opened up so whether you sat inside or on the patio, you felt a nice breeze. It is a sports bar so plenty of TV's to see all around. Justin was our server and he was very good. He is the reason I am giving four stars to this review. I really enjoyed drinking the ExNove Extra Time Red Ale. I have always preferred a red ale and it is hard to find a place that serves one. When I saw it on the menu, I had to have one and this was was exceptionally tasty. I wish I could say my food was good but it just wasn't. I might have ordered the wrong thing but I figured you really can't mess up chicken fingers right?? The chicken was hot but it tasted like it had been sitting for a while. The tots were good though. My daughter enjoyed her Impossible Burger with a side of chili which was definitely New Mexican style. Quite a kick! If I returned I would try a different meal but would still have a tasty brew. read more

One good employee and a good karaoke DJ saved this from being a truly terrible experience. Pool is a room rented (5 dollars per hour) away from everyone else, so no community no vibes, just silent tennis on the TV and mediocre music playing. After serving us multiple drinks, a chud little waiter came to check our IDs and apparently temp. paper IDs are not allowed (it's scanned and been accepted at every other bar in Santa Fe). They then held my fiance's entire wallet in the back and couldn't procure until we made a fuss and Bitknee got it back for us. Default tip was set to 40% btw. Place is a total chop, go literally anywhere else. (Cowgirls mogs!) read more

Fun and lively bar restaurant serving great food. I went there on a Saturday afternoon with my dog and we were seated on the outdoor patio. This was another great experience! The servers were friendly and fast, and provided a water dish for my dog. I ordered the bison sliders with truffle fries, and they were delicious as usual! Boxcar is in a great location downtown and they have a happy hour from 4-6pm. And don't forget to ask for your "locals" discount! I'll be back! read more

We had a party of 6 on a Thursday night after 8 pm. While most of the places in town closed at 8, The Boxcar seemed to be just getting started! Justin was our waiter and he couldn't have been more attentive or helpful. When someone in our party asked what his favorite meal was he gave a genuine response listing meal after meal with the favorite part of each meal he listed! The food was delicious, the ambiance was perfect, and other than having to use stairs to access the restaurant (for those with mobility challenges) I didn't see any other downside. read more

Boxcar Bar and Grill - The Reuben Sandwich at The Boxcar. - New American Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

I was in Santa Fe this past holiday weekend and my cuzin and I decided to head to Downtown and have a drink or two. She's been to Boxcar before but at their previous location. Boxcar was a lot of fun and nice and warm inside too since it was snowing during our visit. We decided to go with the loaded chicken nachos, a couple of beers and a shot of tequila for me =P The nachos were ahhhhmazing, chicken, bean, lots of cheese, hatch green chili ( a must when in NM), guacamole, and sour cream. I decided try their lager and it was alright, my 2nd beer was a Modelo. The restaurant was also very lively on Saturday. A lot of TVs and college football, fans hooting and hollering. Bathroom was very clean. Javier was our server and he was very chill and served with a smile. Whenever I go back to Santa Fe, I'll definitely stop in to watch a game and throw back a cold one. read more

Tried the Veal Bolognese and it was a letdown. I still think this place rocks though. My table also had the chicken cordon bleu and it was 3 meals worth of sandwich. The bolognese was chewy, not aldente. The sauce was not refined enough. Lesson learned. read more
