This is a must!!! My fiancé and me went to stay at an Airbnb on the other side of town. We went in and the locals were very friendly and gave us tips of where to go hiking and sightseeing etc. The food was great and they poured some great drinks. read more

Mountainaire Tavern - This is right out front of the Tavern. We'll see you again! - Barbeque Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

Great dive bar in Northern Arizona. Perfect for transplanted Cheeseheads, ski bums, hunters, tourists, and unpretentious holy men. A slightly Packers themed hole in the wall in the middle of nowhere, fifteen minutes from Flagstaff. Hot food, cold drinks, pool table, and general store next door. Decent bar food menu. Good pizza for eat in or carry out. Good wings and burgers too. Cash only, but ATM onsite. Nothing fancy, beer and basic cocktails. But reasonably priced and great vibe and friendly people if you're wearing plaid. Reminds me of deer camps and fish houses. You may hear banjo music - at least in your head along with the voices. A great Northwoods find! Regular stop for me and I've never left sober. Your mileage may vary. read more

Food was okay, my husband got the steak sandwich and it came with a whole steak in between 2 slices of toast, not sliced or anything and the steak had zero flavor. We were pretty unhappy with this place as we waited over an hour for 4 meals that were all pretty similar. We waited 45 minutes for our appetizer and got like 5 onion rings and it costed $14. Then we waited another 20 or so minutes for our food and it was honestly not worth the wait at all and then having to assemble our own sandwiches and burgers had us confused as to why it took so long and there were not very many people in there at the time either. Overall we will not be returning. read more

Mountainaire Tavern - Steak sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

This place feels like a north woods bar in Wisconsin. We loved the vibe as well as the food (pizza and a burger). We'll definitely go back.

Wowza it's been a long time since I had my wedding reception here. Saw on social media they were having bands on the patio, so grabbed the kid and my Mom and headed out. Had a great burger and chips, cold beer, bloody Mary's and a great time. Definitely hit it up for a super laid back great time. read more

Stopped in with a few friends on our way of out town. Great local spot with a real hometown vibe. The food isn't anything to rave about but the atmosphere and friendly locals were more than enough to have a good time while downing some local brews and watching the game. At one point the poor bartender was slammed with over 20 people at once. The place was already almost full before they arrived and with her being the only bartender, waiter, runner, etc. she handled it very well and kept a smile on her face the whole time. read more

Omg.... Didn't think much of this place from the pics but this was the best place I've been to for food during my short stay in flagstaff. It's cozy, the waiter was great (looks like Chris Pratt) and the food was amazing. I had the green chili burger and the bread was soooo good. Buttery and toasty. The potato fries were good too. read more

The food is all hand/homemade! All the staff is amazing and nice. Great music, drinks and a big outdoor area!!

The food was mediocre, and the service was terrible. They definitely prioritize who they think are locals. Our order was taken well after orders from people that came in after us. Then the food took forever to arrive and was cold. A burger had butter slathered on the outside of the bun and it was disgusting to eat. read more

They were super rude. only good for locals but if your an outsider as me & my family are hispanic then do NOT go here. Late service, very rude waiter, rolling her eyes giving attitude for no reason, giving us paper plates while everyone else had proper plates, & gave us a BURNT pizza. we still tipped before we left but she just went outside and left her tip money at the front of the place as if it was a bad thing we did. so DO NOT GO IF YOUR AN OUTSIDER. find somewhere better. read more

SUPER RUDE!!!! Came in with a large party on our way out of town and experience was nice at first. She took our drink orders but skipped over two of us. This wasn't a big deal and so I figured I'd just save her a secondary trip and walked to the bar to order the Diet Pepsi's and she gave me a death stare as if I've said something so incredibly rude and appalling. The whole rest of our experience she would not acknowledge me and if she did, would not make eye contact and would roll her eyes after I spoke. By far the rudest service experience I've ever had. And the weirdest thing was....she pretended to be sweet and nice to everyone else at my table. She just didn't like me for some reason and I was in no way rude to her. read more

It's open ... and it's quaint with an adorable bar tender who was also serving meals to patrons in the "dining room". The food was really good - my son had a steak sandwich that he said was delicious ... medium rare. I had a grilled fish sandwich on delicious bread. my only gripe is sweet coleslaw but i think im on the wrong side of what most like in a coleslaw. - go savory. read more

Mountainaire locals only - all else should probably find someplace else. Not really welcoming to "outsiders". Food is fine for bar food, bouncer was intense. read more

Mountainaire Tavern - Pizza and beer at the Tavern - Barbeque Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

Mountainaire Tavern is definitely a hidden gem of a dive bar/restaurant that I never would have know about if a Munds Park neighbor didn't mention it... We were staying with friends in nearby Munds Park and were looking for a lunch spot and a bit of adventure. We had use of an ATV so we rode that all the way to Mountainaire to round out the experience. It was super fun! Bess was our server/bartender and took good care of us. We also had a pleasant surprise that since the Packers won the game yesterday, the owner of Mountainaire bought a round at the bar for the patrons that were there at the time. Thank you for that! As you'll see from the photos I took, we had a bit of everything. I never would have imagined that this place had decent kids meals, but they did! The veggie plate was surprisingly fresh and delicious and a hit amongst our group as well! This place is a cash only dive bar off the beaten path, but has a ton of charm and some decent grub too. I had the turkey sub, but I hear the burgers are the way to go. And don't miss the potato fries... they are worth the splurge ;) read more

Taco Tuesdays with hard shell tacos and plenty of beef and chicken. We are looking forward to the barbecue but they're hiring a new chef so we were not able to try out there barbecue food. We thought they were dog friendly, but that's not the case. Beer prices are great. We really liked the low key atmosphere and jukebox selections. read more

Mountainaire Tavern - My husband had a blast! - Barbeque Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

You have to go there for yourself. Perfect local spot. Get a banquet beer and post up for a while.

If you want good food don't eat here unless you're drunk. Then maybe it'll taste ok. The tavern is a local hangout and during the summer they rarely have a live band. read more

I love this place. So many people don't seem to know about it and it has what I am told the best hamburgers around not to mention fantastic pizza. So to start I have been coming in here for years and the quality of the food has never wavered. It is a small "townie" type bar that is always welcoming. If you stay over the weekend they have a spacious patio and most Sundays have a great band. Just check with the bartender. Sunday morning they serve breakfast as well and you will not be disappointed. It is cash only but they have an ATM that charges a nominal fee for your money. The drink prices are also right on. I recommend definitely checking them out on your way to or from Flag. Take the Mountainaire/ Kachina exit and go the direction of Mountainaire, follow the curves about a 1/4 mile down the road and you will find this quaint cool place on the right! And enjoy! read more

DW and I walked in for lunch, barkeep lady told us, "sit anywhere you like." Then... nothing. No menus, no service, even the barkeep evaporated. We left for someplace more organized. read more

Fun place to get a drink and relax. Bartender was the nicest guy and knew the area well. If you are in the area and need a cold beer this is the place to be. read more

This local and long-standing restaurant located in a peaceful and beautiful section of this National Forest, has a comfortable feel to it. The friendly bartender/waiter/ . If you want a relaxing, locally-owned place to eat, you will like this place. The burgers looked great!!!! read more

This place is a has been.... Ordered tostadas and were the worst I've ever had. Was in the area another day and stopped by for a Bloody Mary at about 10:45 AM and door was locked, closed when supposedly opens at 10 AM. Don't waste your time. read more

I quite normally would post 4 stars based on good eats and atmosphere, but the service was just unbelievably poor. We entered and only one local patron was present. Not a greeting or hello and then we asked about seating, she said sit anywhere. We soon found the environment unpleasant and went outside. She would not bring out the food (no food delivers outside) even though there was no one there. Arg. So unfriendly to us, yet chatty with the locals. The veggies were awesome and the beer cold. Hope for better service next time. Nope. The service here is terrible. read more

The Mountainaire Tavern is an old school spot with some great attitude. Inside you'll be greeted with what feels like a small community dive bar which is all of what's great about this place. FOOD: The food here is cooked by a husband and wife in the back that are a great team. Sometimes it takes a little while to get the food out, but that's why you buy drinks in the meantime! The deep fried veggies are an awesome snack if you have a few friends/family members with you. Overall the food is decent and worth a try. The drinks are also great here. I prefer beer over cocktails, so I have only stuck to what's on tap. They have some local beers and some cheap drafts too! SERVICE: The service here is great. You can tell the folks that work here live in the community and carry a great attitude with their neighbors/customers. I enjoy the friendliness. Overall: The Mountainaire Tavern is a great place to come in and hangout. Whether you are alone or with friends/family and looking for a drink/bar food, they have got what you are looking for! read more

Amazing service and very friendly customers! They had a few local beers on tap and the pizza was delicious! Highly recommend this place!

If you want a local hang out with great people, stop by the Mountainaire Tavern. Friendly, great customer service, excellent bartender, Amy! My best friend, her wife, and myself were visiting the area for a little get away, as we were driving to our Airbnb we saw this tavern and knew we had to stop in before we left town. Unfortunately, we did not get there in time for the grill but other reviews indicate the pizza and burger are awesome! Definitely a must if you like local, non-chain establishments. We will definitely be back and will hit the grill this time. read more

Delicious Food. Really cool rustic place with live music on the side patio. Mostly known to locals. Definitely a place to check out when driving to/from Flagstaff. read more

Mountainaire Tavern - Chili Bowl w/cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

I have known the people at this place for years. Great people and great service. Lots of music and pool.

The place is quaint, country and one of the only things before Flagstaff. The waitress was awesome; she was personable friendly. Also, they only serve breakfast on the weekends. **This is a CASH ONLY restaurant/tavern** They have an ATM inside if you need it. The place was rustic and the food quality wasn't at all good. My dad and I each had a bacon, lettuce & tomato sandwich with very little bacon or tomatoes. The bacon was crisp though and did taste good. The sandwich was dry, but they did provide condiments. My brother had a chili cheese burger and said it was tasteless. All of our food was cold. The lady said they had a new cook. I told her my sandwich was the worst I'd ever had in any restaurant; she didn't charge me for it. The prices were what you would expect for the area not too bad. read more

Before I start saying how wonderful this little place is, let me say that this restaurant is CASH ONLY but they do have an ATM inside. The interior was a bit dark for us, but as a tavern we expected as much. This tavern is quite small, but the food packs a big punch... I got a warm and melty ham and cheese sub with fresh "house fries" which are deep fried potato slices. My dieting mom liked them because they weren't super greasy, and still tasted like fresh potatoes. They didn't cut me short on the ham on my sandwich, which was thick and sweet ham, melted Swiss cheese on a warm Swiss roll. Oh my gosh was that bun good. My family of four was able to eat our lunches for close to 40$ and very much enjoyed our meals. Mountainaire Tavern is one of those little places in the middle of nowhere that look sketchy from the outside, but have phenomenal service and quality in the inside. read more

Excellent food, very happy to see they had some vegetarian and pescatarian options. They even went out of their way to offer a grilled veggie sandwich even though it wasn't on the menu, and it was really good. I had the cod sandwich with potato salad, both were great. My boyfriend had the grilled vegetable sandwich with fried potatoes, both excellent. Would definitely come back! read more

Delicious fish sandwich and good small local brewery. It looked like the owner is a Green Bay packers fan all yellow and green/ we are European and don't know much about sports here but this was super obvious:)) we loved the bar tender and the food was really fresh, I'd eat there again. Thanks !! read more

It seems that the food service has severely dwindled. Would not eat there but would go for a beer.

This is a great local spot for delicious homemade-style food and local atmosphere. The server/cook/bartender/Jack of all trades was very personable. This may be a fun place to spend some time in the evening. We were there for lunch and very comfortable with the other patrons and the country ambiance of the place. read more

Always friendly food is great. Miss the outdoor concerts I'm a go anytime is there a craft fair we used to have there was wonderful as well that would be great to the crowd was fun the food is good great little neighborhood bar read more

Good beer and snacks , pool table and good music in the jukebox. Local tavern outside Flagstaff .

Stayed in this beautiful area and while we didn't know we were a little ways from downtown this bar is exactly what I needed. It is a cash only bar but the prices are reasonable. I didn't eat anything here but I did have some drinks. The people in the bar were friendly and so were the bartenders. If you're staying in the area it's even walking distance and the hours are good! I came here twice and the second time was with my crying baby. The nice man let me change her and didn't hesitate to show me the bathroom. There's no changing table and it's tiny but was so thankful he let us use that with out giving me a hard time of not being able to stay and eat or drink that day. I highly recommend this place for a laid back fun tim read more
