    Fry bread taco
    Chad H.

    Would have been a solid 5 but the soda water in one of our drinks tasted "off". The fry bread taco with carnitas was very good. Had a couple of their beers and was impressed! Great job!

    This place is a gem! Wonderful, warm and welcoming! I stopped in on a whim and I am so glad I did. I sampled a couple beers and settled on a prickly pear IPA. Not only tasty, it had to be the prettiest beer I've ever drank. I ordered a green chili chicken sandwich and tots and Yum! Such a big portion too. The spaces has garage doors that open to a pet-friendly patio and allow the cool mountain breezes to flow in. There is also a fireplace with a cozy sofa seating area, if you catch a chill. They have a carry out fridge and merch so you can remember your adventure! They also distill spirits and have canned cocktails. Something for everybody! Service was wonderfully attentive and so very friendly! I really appreciated it as I was traveling solo. Plenty of parking, too.

    The entrance in the late afternoon

    I stopped in on Sunday on a quick round trip to NAU and back. They had all the games on multiple feeds. It wasn't too busy and we were seated promptly by our smiling waitress I had a "brew 42" -a nice Irish style red ale that was cold, frothy and delicious. For lunch I tried the spicy bacon jam sliders. They didn't have much kick, but the tangy jam just nailed it. My son inhaled his bistro steak sandwich, so it must have been great! The bar side had high tops, low tops, wooden logs as barstools and a nice cozy fireplace with a fire going. All in all it was a great experience

    The service was great given that there was only one guy manning the front and the bar. But the food on the other hand was nothing to write home about. What was the most unfortunate thing about the food was it was recommended as his go tos so we thought oh for sure this will be the best options on the menu. But everything we ordered was not great. More for survival i suppose. But honestly I'd be happier with in n out over the food here to be honest. None of the leftovers we had did i look forward to eating. We ordered the garlic parm wings/ buffalo and the short rib grits and the steak sandwich which was more of like a bad Philly cheesesteak. Like i said earlier the service was fine and beer was great but the food was a definite miss.

    GCB always good when we are in town and we appreciate them tonight quickly seating our group of 12! Service was good and our server was kind, along with the bartender. Everyone's food was good, someone did have half their sandwich roll burnt but they got him a new one so it was no problem. I recommended the bistro steak sandwich and everyone that got it really loved it including me It was soo good and flavorful as always Bonus is Cali creamin is on the guest list still as it's my fav beer and since it's on nitro is the only one I can actually have

    Sweet potato fries

    Started off bad the minute we walked in. The sign said wait to be seated, waited 5 minutes only for someone to tell us to seat ourselves. Sweet potato fries were cold and not cooked fully. 2/5 stars.

    Our entire soccer team and their families (30+ people) showed up for lunch on an already very busy Flagstaff weekend and instead of them saying "absolutely not!", they said "let's see what we can do". They opened up the entire back room for us and it worked perfectly early because the kids were entertained and were not clogging up the main dining room. The back room had TVs, pool tables, foosball, shuffleboard, giant jenga and connect four plus lots of seating for everyone. Huge bonus is that all the fountain drinks and waters were all self serve. Only downside of that is that is only one single bathroom, so there was a little bit of a line a few times we were there. Drinks from the bar were still available and gladly ordered by several of our parents. Our server was amazing handling that large of a group. She did tell us that they were operating on a limited menu, which was understandable, even though a know a few people were looking forward to some of the other options. The kids menu was still an option as well, which we took full advantage of with our crew. While it did take quite awhile to get all the food (again totally understandable), everyone seemed happy with what they ordered. The only criticism I heard was that the kids portion Mac and cheese wasn't large enough, but that just means they liked it so much they wanted more! We did have to have the large party gratuity applied as expected, and tipping above that was optional.

    Buffalo hot wings

    Great spot! Right across the street from Target. We went on a Sunday afternoon and were seated immediately and the sever came right after. Drinks came quick and food soon after. Everything we ordered was delicious! Definitely coming back!

    To go beers

    I was excited to try this brewery given the name but I came out of it slightly disappointed. It was quite empty when I walked in and there was just one worker. I sat by the bar and the seat was unique, they were like logs. It wasn't the most comfortable to sit in but that's okay. I didn't really get much help other than the menus served to us. I went with unique flavors I haven't had and what I typically get (Prickly Pear and IPA mostly). The beers weren't as amazing as I had hope. I ordered their special - brisket mac & cheese and their wings. Brisket Mac & Cheese - there was only two strips of brisket. For $18, I expected more brisket or even just cut, dispersed and mixed in with the mac & cheese. Wings - Forgot the flavor I got but appreciated the quantity of wings. When I go to breweries, I enjoy conversations with the beertender to dig deeper into how the beers are brewed and what are some top choices most people get. The server was not attentive at all. There was so much options from beers to liquor to food. It would have been so nice to have a server that "sold" us more on what is good.

    Service: 5 stars Beer: 3 stars Ambiance: 5 stars We had a fun date night at Grand Canyon Brewing. Our pub pass comes in handy! The log stools at the bar add a fun flair but they aren't very comfy to sit on for a full beer or two.

    Bistro steak sandwich
    Marisa M.

    I was on road trip driving through with some friends and came across this brewery. It was very inviting and cozy inside. Thankfully there wasn't many people even though it was 2 days away from new years. Ok so I wasn't sure what to try out so I ended up getting a flight. I highly recommend getting one if you are indecisive like me. The burger I had was soooooo good or maybe I was just hungry. One of my friends got a burger and it was gone in 5 min so that should tell you how delicious his must of been. Ok enjoy my pics :)

    Smokehouse Grits
    Greg S.

    My wife and I shared the Smokehouse Grits (Fire-braised short rib with brisket burnt-end sausage and beer au jus served over cheddar grits). Are you kidding me??!! It was amazing! Spicy too!

    No service - waited a while so we left. expected more from this place. Not much of a distillery. More of an Applebees vibe.

The outdoor beer garden is huge with plenty of seating, heaters for those crisp Flagstaff evenings, and sunshades for warmer days. There's indoor seating too, but the outdoor area is definitely the main attraction. It's also dog friendly, which was nice to see. You order both food and drinks at the counter and they bring everything out to you. We arrived right when they opened and there was already a line forming, so the place is clearly popular. The decor fully leans into Flagstaff's International Dark Sky designation with UFO, alien, and astronaut-themed artwork throughout the venue, which gives it a fun atmosphere. The drink selection was impressive with a huge variety of craft beers on tap plus cocktails, cider, and wine. We tried the Rainy Daze hazy IPA and the Vortices hazy double IPA. Both were smooth, flavorful, and not overly bitter or hoppy, and of course very hazy. Food was more hit or miss. The pretzel board was really good and the beer cheese was awesome. The fish and chips, however, were just okay. The fish tasted like the fryer oil probably needed to be changed, and the portions were smaller than expected with only three thin pieces of fish. The fries at least came out crispy and hot. Service was friendly, although interaction is pretty limited since everything is counter service. The all-gender bathrooms were also clean, which is always appreciated. There's a paid parking lot across the street along with metered street parking nearby. Overall, I'd come back for the atmosphere and the massive beer selection, but I'd probably skip the fried foods.

We ordered the Basque cheesecake, and it was nothing like what we expected. Instead of being moist, creamy, and custardy, it was dry and crumbly. I mentioned to our server that the pastry chef might want to reconsider the recipe, but she responded that it had been made this way for many years, suggesting they were confident in it as is. At $16, the cheesecake was especially hard to justify. We've had far better cheesecake elsewhere for less. Would we return? Maybe...but primarily for the portobello appetizer. Overall, we'd probably choose to spend our money at Shift instead.

We lucked out with some gorgeous weather a few weeks back, so dining on the patio was very enjoyable, particularly with the cozy string lights on overhead.

I don't remember the name of our waitress, but she was very friendly. She immediately brought us a water carafe and two glasses. She was back in under 5 minutes to take our order and our food came out super fast. We began with the Mixed Greens Salad with Chevre & Pine Nuts. The portion was generous and the salad was absolutely delicious. They let the flavor of the chevre & pine nuts really shine through by adding a very light olive oil based dressing. We then shared our favorite pizza, the Diavola, which was delicious as always. Their pizza crust is some of the best in the western U.S. I love the convenience of enjoying Pizzicletta at Dark Sky, but I think we'll be coming to this location from now on. We loved the ambiance and slightly expanded menu offered here. Plus, grabbing drinks two doors down at Mother Road before/after is an added bonus!
