    a view of a hockey rink
    Stuart P.

    I'm all about a good dive bar and the best thing about this one is the unique view of the ice skating rink. There are often hockey games or practices when we are there. Fun to watch. The lack of stars was because, a.) they were out of a common ingredient (sugar) to make the cocktail we wanted; and b.) the ownership has changed and the bartender said they are no longer honoring the "free fries" when you check-in on Yelp, and she said nobody has a clue how to take those things down from Yelp or any other platforms they offer specials. Felt a bit like a bait-n-switch to us, but I don't think it was done purposely. I believe the story that they don't know how to fix these things they inherited from previous owners. Regardless that that, the bartender was very friendly and the service was on point. It just seems the ownership has details to clear up to get the place running smoother.

    Small dive bar feel, with a window to the skating rink. Bring warm clothes as it's a little chilly but not uncomfortable. Had the poutine, I'm Canadian so this was so nice and a great size.

    Chicken Wings

    Came here with 13 people for a birthday celebration. The location was hard to find, it was behind all the other stores in the back side of the parking lot. It's a nice place for people to watch the game while eating/drinking. But not worth going solely for food or drinks. More of a place to wait for kids to finish the game or watch the game. We ordered some wings, nachos with carnitas, soft pretzels, and crispy chicken sandwich. Wings were good! Crispy on the outside and juicy! Nachos were not good, melted cheese was literally looks like it was melted from the microwave and it's all dried up when you get it. Carnitas were also not great. The fries were the best part of the crispy chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich it self was a very thin piece of chicken. For drinks it was a game day so lots of game specials including a mystery shots! It was gin based and it was surprisingly really good! Can't beat $1 shots!! Sangria and the earl grey martini was not the best and they both tasted more like juice. Would recommend to go if you want drinks/quick bite before skating or watching a game.

    Apparently this bar has been here for many years. The food could be a hidden gem, but I did not want to disturb the cook, who was relaxing and texting in the tiny kitchen. Beer prices were reasonable and staff was nice and they even have one of those 1980's era ice hockey games. The view of the rink was pretty cool, but that's about all. Likely, alot of regulars have been coming here for years.

    I have been SO excited to visit this place since I heard of it (prelockdown) and finally got to go last night! The atmosphere is awesome! Been missing hockey & sports in general and this place is so unique and fun! My boyfriend and I sat at the bar. Scott was our bartender and he did a great job of keeping us entertained and well nourished! We had DELICIOUS fried pickles (my favorite!), split a chicken BLT and also had some garlic hot honey chicken wings! The wings were spicy and sooo good! My bf was so excited for the Canadian beers and we quenched our thirst with some refreshing molsons. I will most definitely be back as often as I can be! I NEED to try the brunch poutine! This place is awesome and I highly recommend checking it out!!

    Loaded fries with sour cream and ranch... So delish!!!!

    I come in here to hang while the fiance plays hockey and I must say, they're ALWAYS super friendly and welcoming! I love being able to have a beer or cocktail while watching the guys on the ice! It is also much warmer in the tavern than on the bleachers! ;) They recently hired a new addition to the team (I totally forget his name, darn!) and he is willing to whip up anything that your heart desires; homemade salad dressings, loaded fries--which are amazing might I add!, wings, etc. He even offered to muddle some cucumber into my gin and tonic for a light and refreshing twist! I will absolutely be back soon to hang! Thank you for always putting a smile on my face!

    November specials!

    This is the best bar! The food is delicious (their tacos... their specials... so yummy). Having a kid that plays hockey means I'm at the rink multiple times per week and the bar is a great spot to sit during practices. This bar has greatly improved over the last year and a half. The rotating beers are great and I love the weekly specials. It's a great place to catch up, watch sports and watch my kiddo play hockey. Love this place and what they've done with it. Kim is fantastic and knows her business! Def give it a try!

    Super cool dive bar where you can watch some hockey and tip back a cold one. Usually pretty quiet but friendly atmosphere. I enjoy visiting this place.

    Had an unexpected stay in Phoenix due to wife's incoming flight cancellation. It was 8:00 pm and I…read morewas very hungry. Used Google Maps to find close location to eat. Brix was a 2-minute drive so Brix it is. It's a sports bar restaurant inside another hotel property. High tech sterile environment with a few widescreens tuned to sporting contests. Caught the end of WC match Mexico v. England. Staff were a wee bit cold and inattentive at first (probably because I looked homeless as I was doing an airport pick up and straight home) best laid plans and all that. Well, my good manners brought the staff around and they warmed up. I ordered the steak and gravy entree medium rare. Oh My God! The New York Strip was PERFECT. The mushroom-onion gravy was delicious. The roasted carrots delicious. The potato mash creamy, and yes, delicious. Broccolini was a miss for me I didn't like its bitterness, some do. Next time I order I will request a more carrots substitution. I literally can't wait to go back.

    This place exceeded my expectations. I ate here two nights in a row during a work trip because I…read morewas too tired to go searching for another restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised by the food--the dishes were flavorful, well presented, and made with quality ingredients. I honestly didn't expect a hotel restaurant to be this good, but every meal was enjoyable. It ended up being a better experience than I expected based on the reviews, and I'd definitely eat here again if I were staying at the hotel.

    Walked in and sat down. Shay is our server. She's really nice and patient. And she is…read moreknowledgeable about the menu. The ambiance is cool, not bright lights. Really don't need that this time of the year, because it's about 104 degrees outside. Feels really cool inside. Junior is throwing down behind the counter!!! He's friendly too. Junior says that they have a special every day something different and it's really good price for the food that you get. OK, let me tell you legend behind chicken wings. What we got was the 12 wings and found out that they fry them dip them in the sauce that you pick, and they grill the wings and re-dip them again for the sauce that you wanted. Very reasonable prices and a friendly crew. Thanks guys. Next time we are in town will surely be back. We told all our family members about your spot here that haven't been and they will be here to visit. Hands Down, I highly recommend that you check out this restaurant.

    Delicious twice-cooked bbq wings- so yummy. Should have just had wings…read more Combo zucchini/mushrooms left a lot to be desired. Price - $9. Got five pieces of zucchini and four mushrooms (2 of which were tiny) and one fried mystery vegetable. They came out way after the wings. Did the kitchen run out of product, or is this really what you get for $9? They were spread out on a dinner plate accompanied by a mound of spinach (to help fill the space?), which made the combo seem even more sparse. Wish server would have tipped us off not to order this. Went to see Brea Burns Sunday night. Show was supposed to start at 7. Opening act went on about 7:40 and played almost an hour = way too much. Came to see Brea and her band but they came on so late on a Sunday night that we left after just a few songs. We love Dirty Drummer but a few bumps in the road on this trip.
