They are always snobbish. Unfriendly. Always. Moping the floor during business hours...smelling cleaning solution, turning the fan on to drown out the music is not good business practice. 0 stars for ruining the smell of my $7 beer. Good thing for me that I like the beer. I think maybe competition is coming. Good thing the beer is good.

Oof, how do I properly put into words, the fantastic experience that is Smelter Town Brewery?!…read more Traveling through the Sedona area, we had a sample of Smelter Town, having ordered a Modern Miner at Vino Di Sedona- the quality of the milkshake ipa was so flavorful, so creamy, so well balanced- my husband made a point on our return trip to stop at Smelter Town itself, in search of more great beer...and yes we found it- Clarkdale at a drive-thru glimpse was a very small town with very beautiful but limited options-arriving at the brewery, was discovering a charming local community gem. Everyone was so friendly, the regulars there drinking, the bartender/general managers, and other staff clearly have a lot of pride in the location, providing togetherness. I loved hearing the bartender tell others about that evening's music bingo- how it was created as something fun for the locals who they had always heard talking about or enjoying music, so they created a whole night for them- We also got the story of the randomness of the folded money in the wall stones- and what started as random became the community giving to charity through a fun bar secret means- Oh, and the wonderfulness of the team coming together to close down for a hard earned week of vacation- not just rotating schedules, but all relaxing together- the customer service, the management of it all, it really was a great model for micro craft brewery We had pints of Hop Deposits solid hops hazy hoppy Broken Pick pineapple juice flavor balanced Broadway -best golden I've had, perfect balance of roasty and of course Modern Miner- all untapped 5 stars; yup, we got the great beer we wanted- super sad we can't buy in MD- we'd have our fridge stocked regularly & music bingo would be our date night- cannot recommend enough- hubby even bought a hat to remember (though sadly TSA lost it moving our bags- and he says it's ok, but I know he's super bummed- that's the impact of happy times at this location)

Our waiter, Tyler has an excellent sense of humor and took good care of us. It's u usual for me to have fun with waiters. They're usually rushed, and he was, but still had time to talk a bit. I like that. It's a charming place to eat. We're big city folks and felt like it was an excellent place to eat. If they were in my neighborhood back home, I'd be a regular. We got a Southwest burger and my wife got a Chicken Ceasar salad. Both were excellent.

We've been a fan of Belfry and have recommended the establishment to others. We'll think twice…read moreabout another endorsement after yesterday's very disappointing lunch. Three couples (unfortunately) ordered the same item - the Verde Valley Melt. Basically it's described as a sourdough bread turkey sandwich with parmesan fries. The best part of the plate was the fries. The first thing we noticed is that the bread looked and tasted like Wonder Bread. White as white can be. Not sourdough. Secondly, a Melt should come out as toasted with melted cheese. Hot and toasty it was not. The turkey portion was slim. A five year old kid wouldn't have been happy to have this weak sandwich. I hope this experience is a one off for the Belfry. If not, I expect this restaurant to disappear soon. That would be an unfortunate loss to downtown Cottonwood.

Vacationing through AZ, in a camper van, we enjoyed exploring each city-creating our own brew tour-…read moreI was really excited to add Public Taproom to our "tour", as they had a fantastic sounding (recently updated) tap list- with a variety of options for THAT Brewery- However, upon arriving, we were surprised to find out they switched to Oak Creek brewery, with a completely different & limited tap list- Honestly, I probably would have moved onto the next spot on our list, but my husband was tired of driving so we decided to stay. We opted for the stout & west coast IPA- both were...drinkable, but definitely slightly below average compared to other AZ breweries- very basic. Which I expected when the description was just "west coast ipa"- unlike the more appealing lengthy citra descriptions of the original expected tap list offering unique flavors- a major disappointment. The atmosphere also could've been better. A few locals were at the bar chatting with the bartender, but they were so focused on each other and loud that we felt like awkward outsiders. I love getting a taste of the local vibe, but this experience just didn't hit the mark for us.

I'd give this place a solid 3 stars overall…read more The decor and ambiance are easily the highlight--definitely 5-star vibes. It has a really inviting tavern feel that makes you want to sit, relax, and stay awhile. The menu offers a decent variety of sandwiches, salads, appetizers, and a few entrée options. One thing that stood out was the lavosh (basically a thin-crust pizza), where you can choose up to four toppings. The protein options included bacon, ham, chicken, shrimp, and shredded beef, though the vegetable selection was a bit limited. Service started off strong--friendly and attentive--but tapered off and became pretty average as the meal went on. As for the food, it was just okay. The Cajun chicken pasta was creamy and satisfying, but it lacked the spice you'd expect from a Cajun dish. The cheese bread was very soft, and that same bread was used for the prime rib melt. Unfortunately, it didn't hold up well--it came across as doughy and a bit mushy, and overall lacked flavor. Great atmosphere, decent menu, but the food and service didn't quite live up to the setting.

The space has a bit of a warehouse vibe--casual, open, nothing fussy--but the service was friendly, quick, and really welcoming. I had the chicken salad sandwich with dried cranberries, which was fresh and hit that perfect sweet-savory balance. My husband went with a salad and paired it with one of their IPAs, which he said was spot on. All in all, a great, easy stop with good food, solid beer, and no nonsense. We'll definitely keep this one in mind for future drives up north.

Made reservations for today at 4:15 and the service provided by James was better than expected but…read moreI cannot say the same for the food and especially not based on managements approach. While making the reservation I made a note that our oldest son is autistic and non-verbal and his only form of communication so that staff was aware we decided to give this place a try. After spending close to $800 on food for our party we decided to exit the restaurant and that is when the problems began. As we were walking out another customer at the bar a patron at the bar decided to squeal at my son but also yell into his face. When who I assumed was her daughter realized we saw what was going on she covered her mouth and told her to stop. Being adults and understanding of others different situations we decided the best method was to approach the management team and explain the situation. I then approached a manger who was wearing a pink colored collared shirt and explained to her what happened and her response was "that hurts my heart, we do not stand for that and we will definitely do something about this." We waited outside for about 15 minutes to see what was going to be done and once we saw nothing was I went back in to speak to the general manager. This was definitely the worst part of the night. Tiana came out to speak to us and I asked her to speak on the side so that other patrons were not affected. Her response to me after explaining the situation was "since we did not see it we cannot do anything." I let her know that was an inappropriate response and that since it was a private business they could remove any patron for any reason but if they did not want to do that then she could just openly tell me that. I then gave her an example and stated "if I stab someone and you do not see it then you would not remove me?" Her response was "we definitely would," to which I stated that goes against what you just openly told me and she that there is damage from a stabbing. I then stated to her that physical damage is the same as emotional and mental damge just in a different form which she seemed to easily dismiss. She then stated that the first manager I spoke to was doing her due diligence to find out what happened and I then pointed out that that manager was actually waiting tables and we watched her do this the entire time so I was not sure when due diligence was being completed. We went around in circles, I asked her to give me the ownership information to which she stated "the owner is too famous for you to know," but eventually gave me the name which I had already searched for in my phone. At this point I openly stated that she could just tell me they were not going to do anything and that transparency would be more appreciated to which her response was "you are not currently dining in my restaurant so you need to leave my property." We did walk away but I hope that this is addressed and not pushed aside. All that to say, I hope this type of discrimination was not because we were Hispanic (the restaurant was filled with 90% Caucasian clients), because we were from out of town (from California) and mostly I hope it is not because the stance of the restaurant is not that people with disabilities matter less. I hope someone reaches out to me to address this concern and I hope no other family has to be a part of what we went through tonight. Tiana seems to be invested in the business and that is great but should also understand her customer concerns. Update to this review: Called this morning (2/17/26) and the hostess said she was not going to help me with any information, that I was a weirdo, to grow up and then hung up the phone on me.
