1st visit: Group of 8. Varying tastes. Great beer selection. Very good food. Service was friendly, but not expert. Good atmosphere. Recommend outdoor at sunset. read more

Assuming you can find parking this is a great place to take in a game and enjoy some solid pub grub. There's a lot of buzz about the burgers but the smart money is on the pizza. The service isn't super attentive but it isn't as noticeable as you are likely focused on the game. read more

In town for a few days and their food was bomb!!!! Fish tacos and the burger were amazing.

Great beer selection of both local and non local options. Nice atmosphere, made really nice by a day with a beautiful view of the mountain and weather that cooled off the warm AZ heat. Good service. I would recommend it and expect to visit again. read more

Still the best burger in town - bar none. Great beers and service too. The value on Wednesday is exceptional. We shared an app, an Ivan, and I had two great pilsners for $25 before tip. Wings were a but rubbery, but tasty. read more

The Attic Ale House - Nice patio - Gastropubs Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The food was alright but the service sucked. Expectations where not met unfortunately I've been pumped to go there for awhile.

One of my favorite spots in Arcadia. The Attic is a cute/cozy bar with a great beer selection and some bomb burgers! I came for a Friday fish fry sometime in the last year and the fish was amazing. My friend and I tried to come back again and the server insisted they never did that? Idk, maybe it was a 1 time gig or something but they should make it an all the time gig. The only downfall of this place is the service. Terribly slow. Usually takes forever for someone to even greet you. Drinks will sit empty for a while and if you ask for any extras, plan to ask for them at least 3 more times. I'll personally tolerate bad service for good beer and food though. read more

This place is so good! A perfect mix of good craft beers and wine (not sure if they serve mixed drinks because the beer selection is so amazing) and incredible food. The wood fired pizza is as good as it gets, a variety of charcuteries, big screen TVs to keep track of the game all in an indoor/outdoor setting on the second story of a well maintained east Indian School building with a great view of Camelback Mountain. There is an elevator if climbing stairs is not your thing, excellent wait staff and a great vibe. Ya walk in, sit down and you know it's gonna be good! read more

I brought the Phoenix Craft Beer Community of around 25 people to The Attic Ale House on Wednesday, May 18th, and what a fantastic time we had. The beer cold, food excellent, the patio view and ambiance just exquisite. Our waitress, Samantha was very diligent in keeping the entire party in drinks and food all evening and her attentiveness to detail was great. We love this place and can't wait to come back. What a gem!!! Oh, and the Ivan Burger was to die for. read more

Went to lunch with a few friends and never heard of it before but love beer. When we walked in I thought it was super cool and well decorated. As we were seated. We had an amazing spot where the sliding doors opened and you can see a nice few of Indian school road and got to eat amazing burgers and local beers. I had this amazing the Holmburger and I would continue to go back because that burger was amazing! I'd definitely recommend going here! The service was also amazing! read more

I'm a big fan of the Attic!!! Always a good vibe. Lots of drinks to choose from and the food is delicious too! The views are worth it for sunset!! read more

Drinks and drink selection are top knotch. For a weekend morning highly recommend mimosa flight (mango, passion fruit, guava) and chicken & waffles (which comes with excellent house Buffalo sauce and blueberries). Natalie also provided excellent service. Will definitely be back. read more

Wowzers, now this is an awesome gastropub. No ifs ands or buts about it, they have probably the best burger I have ever tasted here, ready for your enjoyment... ~Fud/Drink~ "The Burger", as they call it on their menu, is one of the best burgers in the world...its ranked. Yep, I know. I am not a big burger person, especially in the latter part of my young life. I am much more content with a fish or chicken dish than a greasy burger. But I must say I will gladly cross the line drawn in the sand for this burger. Upon picking up an already half eaten burger, I immediately noticed the weight and density. I was floored. It is impressively heavy, packed with yummy mixed greens, shaved red onion and the choice cheese tonight being provolone. The chipotle mayo is sublime, mixing the beef together along with the pretzel bun. Overall, this definitely constitutes the afformentioned ranking...its damn good. Plus we enjoyed the burger and beer $10 special which they offer Wednesdays. The entire tab including my lone beer I ordered on the side would have come out to over $28, however the special shaved off $2 from the burger and an additional $6+ on our bill....IMPRESSIVE! This deal is on par with other nightly specials in the area... I fail to mention the fact that the beer selection is very good, they offer enough lighter varieties for me to try, but they offer something for every beer drinker. ~Atmosphere/Service~ Inside it may seem a bit cramped, but its not...the layout is quaint and you are surrounded by fun sings and album covers of indy bands. They have a few TV's with sports on, and the patio also provides a couple TV's as well. It is darker inside than a normal food spot, which lends to The Attics trademark chill vibe. Waitress was average in speed of service, nothing to write home about. I had no real questions to ask...next time I will pick their brains more. Awesome hangout bar, really relaxed atmosphere, once again. ~Extras/Rating~ Wednesday...$10...Beer....Burger....Special... JUST DO IT! They get 5 stars. Why? Well, they have an amazing selection of crafts, an intimate setting and atmosphere, insanely tasty food, and heck, the best burger-beer deal in town..I mean, its the best burger and some of the best beer...IN TOWN, lol! Its a no-brainer. Bank it! Shoo-wop! read more

I pretty sure I had a good time here. I can't say I'm positive because of the beer I had. Thankfully I took a picture of the menu so I know what beer to blame, or thank, for this night I no longer remember. Shmaltz He'Brew Jew Reborn at an ABV% of 17.0. I do remember really liking the table I had, a great view of the sunset and I had an awesome burger, the Ivan. Once I made it halfway though the beer though the night fades away in my memory. I'll have to go back to verify I did like this place, and maybe take more notes or something while I try the Reborn again. read more

I like this place! My cousin and I came here late one night for drinks. Loved their patio. The weather was great and it was nice looking out at the Valley while having a cocktail. Friendly service staff as well. read more

The Attic is the new name for Cave & Ives. It's been taken over by new owner (who happens to be very familiar with Cave & Ives), but all the elements we loved about Cave & Ives are still intact. The official grand opening for The Attic is in August, but they are in fact open now! We were so bummed when Cave & Ives closed in April. It was our favorite restaurant in the valley. We used to drive 40 minute to get there at least once a week. When we heard that Cave & Ives was reopening under a new concept and new name, we were hesitant to go back. We didn't want to ruin the fond memories we had of Cave & Ives. Now we kick ourselves and say, "Why have we not been back sooner!" As soon as we walk through the door, we were greeted with familiar faces and some very pleasant surprises. Ryan, the bartender that we loved for his great service and beer knowledge, was still there. In fact, they added more taps and now serve even more varieties of beers than before. They no longer have the large selection of bottled beers, but their draft beer selection was, and is still, very impressive. If you don't know what to drink, ask Ryan. He will not steer you wrong. In fact, we often choose to sit at the bar because Ryan is there. We were ecstatic to see that the menu hasn't changed too much either. The burger is still being served and all the pizzas are still the same. If you go to The Attic for the first time, YOU MUST ORDER THE BURGER!!! Ryan just informed us tonight that their burger was named one of the top 10 burgers in the United States! The Burger is a grill 1/2 lb. patty topped with grilled onions, chipotle mayo, spring greens, on a pretzel bun with your choice of cheese, and a side of French fries. If you can, order the bacon, sautéed mushrooms, and blue cheese. You can also order The Hangover Burger, which is the burger with a fried egg and bacon strips. If you're into spice, ask the server for Da Bomb. They keep it behind the bar. Our second favorite item on the menu (by a very close second) is the steak salad. They didn't have it this time, but Ryan assures us that the steak salad will also be coming back soon. We were so happy that the experience of going to The Attic has not diminished our memories of Cave & Ives. The new décor with darker walls and pops colorful art is a plus. The music choices and more relaxed atmosphere made the place better. We also discovered that they added a burger challenge to the menu. Each challenger will need to each more than the last challenger (1 more patty, 1 more egg, 2 more strips of bacon). The winner gets to rename the burger and get their picture up on the wall. My husband is psyching himself up to doing the challenge on Tuesday! The Attic might be a different name, but same location, great service, delicious food, and excellent beer selection. read more

The Attic Ale House - The Burger with fries. Order with bacon, sauteed onions, and blue cheese. The best burger in town! - Gastropubs Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I've been wanting to try this place since it was Cave and Ives and I FINALLY made it there the other night. I REALLY enjoyed the place. It's got a REALLY great atmosphere with a nice patio and a fun, cheerful crowd. They have a good selection of craft beers on tap, as well as wine and cocktails. I had their Ivan burger which was delicious, but HUGE. Beyond that, I had downed beers the rest of the night and had a good time. I must say that I wasn't overly crazy about the service. The bartender while reasonably efficient and polite wasn't the warmest or friendliest. It was pretty busy so I definitely take that into account but her attitude was noticeably contrary to the overall warmth and cheer of the place and the patrons which was disappointing. I am still down to come again because this is a fun place and I highly recommend it. read more

Tuesday night and the bottles of wine were 1/2 price! Worth it for that alone! This was my first time at the attic, but everyone I was with had been there before and loved it. Our waitress was very nice, but obviously frazzled because the kitchen was making mistakes. The pizza came out cold, the side salad had a few parts of the lettuce that wasn't edible, the wings my daughter ordered didn't come out until we were almost done. The person who ordered a burger, however, said it was really good. I would still try this place again to see if they have a better night. read more

I adore this place. It's quirky location, secret entrance, phenomenal views and superb beer selection. I love the decor, happy hour deals, the amazing service and one of the top 3 cheeseburgers I've ever had. I cannot wait to return and have told so many people about this place Ive lost track. It's on the smallish side so definitely not looking forward to winter crowds - I'll be back before the birds descend. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. And don't get a salad. This is the spot for cheat night. Best pretzel bun I've tasted on the Ivan. The bruschetta is also fantastic. Think I'll be back sooner than expected... read more

Our Friday night go to! Love hanging out on the patio and enjoying the beautiful sunset views along with a beer, wine, or cocktail (great selection for all). As far as the food goes, you really can't go wrong! I've had almost everything on the menu and have yet to be disappointed. Tip: If there is anything with fried chicken on the specials, get it!! Some of the best chicken strips in town. Oh, and don't skip the truffle fries... read more

What's the best reward after a tough Sunday hike? Obviously a burger and beer. When we tried to find The Attic, we were lost. Four businesses....no "The Attic"....until we realized, the name was not just cute and memorable---it's the location. Going through the iron gates, we climbed the stairs and found this cool spot. It's not very big and that patio isn't being used due to work being done outside, but this place was full. They offered a limited Sunday menu that boasted chicken wings and salads but most of all...The Ivan Burger. A massive amount of meat cooked to perfection, topped with the works (you can add Bacon and mushrooms as well) along with a chipotle mayo that got my tastebuds a goin'. If that doesn't make your mouth water the pretzel bun will. This burger is straightforward and a hunk of heaven. Naturally I can't eat a burger without a brew to wash it down with. The Epic Sour Apple beer I picked was great. It had tangy, sour hints while not tasting too sweet like a cider. It was so good that the guy I was with liked it more than his more "manly" beer. I hold the title for fruit beer success. All in all, I want to get back up to the Attic to see what they have in store on their regular menu, what a good hide away!! read more

This place is so good. Great beers and the burgers are phenomenal. We enjoyed watching K State beat OU. Thanks for the great service.

Solid selection of craft beers updated daily (use TapHunter to be informed of the list) and simple but amazing comfort food. The burgers live up to the hype, the Attic wings (grilled) become a craving after having once, service is on point and overall the staff is great considering how busy they are on some days. If you had a bad experience here, it's likely that you are a bad person. read more

My first visit and if I didn't have a GPS equipped cyber-phone, I'd be seriously lost Don Quixote-style. But I did find it and trotted up the stairs to the bar. My first impression was that this is a little oddly shaped establishment, but I have a feeling that there are some regulars here. Dipsomaniacs in need of social interaction, aren't we all at times? The Beer diversity and level of interest The beers are interesting, but the diversity is skewed. I still liked it though, but two of the beers I wanted to try, they were out of. That quite a lot on a list that contains 12 beers. I want more beers on the list! The Service There is a cute blond behind the bar, and she is working perpetually. She has no need to check in on you and your needs to quench your thirst, so if you want her attention you need to speak up, flag her down. She was clearly unimpressed by the jokes from the peanut gallery, disregarding if it was an homage to her beauty or a annoying applause as she accidentally displaced glassware into the bar or the floor. I cannot imagine working where people stare at me all day. It would be like working in an aquarium - if we disregard the humidity. In regards to the knowledge of the beers, I didn't feel that I was dealing with a brew pundit. Conclusion I did enjoy this place, and time just went extraordinarily fast in here. They do have a rotation and will be getting even more interesting beers on the menu, and that will be very nice to experience. But if I wouldn't already known anyone here, I don't feel the atmosphere is such as I would strike up a conversation with strangers in my lonesomeness. read more

Half price wine on Tuesdays. What?!?! Had already eaten before coming but ordered a caprese salad...amazing! Tomatoes were form, bread was crispy yet soft, and they used very tasty vinegar and oil. Waitress was also very charming! Definitely recommend this place. read more

Hours on the yelp site say they are open on Sundays, drove all the way there just to see its closed. I'm pissed

Wrote a bad review previously, but went a few more times, this place definetly improved a lot =) The wait time is still excessive, went back last week even and like I expected it always took like 30 to 45 minutes to pay for my meal, it's always been like that though so you kinda have to expect to spend a lot of time here when you come. The food is delicious and so is the selection of beer sooooo I guess it's all kinda worth it. read more

This place is kind of weird...not in a bad way, but read on. So this used to be Cave and Ives which was I think more Mediterranean and a little classier - we liked it as. The new place is definitely a pub like experience mostly because of the menu. They added a ton of TV's which was kind of fun, but the vibe still points towards a classier joint. They still have a great beer and wine selection and the decor is awesome...but again, and maybe I'm confused...its a pub! We ordered wings and the cheese plate to start. The wings were fantastic, so was the cheese plate but here is what makes me laugh, the cheese plate looks like it was plated by a pub but tastes like it belongs in a wine bar. It was cubed artesian cheeses that were all delicious, with great sides of nuts, fruits, olives etc. I ordered the Margarita pizza and boyfriend had the breakfast burger, which was HUGE but good. I think I am just confused on what direction this place is going towards, menus and beers say pub, wine, cheese and decor say more of a wine bar with a little sass. Needless to say, for the wings and beer alone, we will go back. read more

Amazing burger! We stopped in for the Wednesday night special (burger and draft for $10). The restaurant is open, with neat decor and a nice ambiance. Service was good, too. The burgers were perfectly cooked (we asked for medium). The veggies were fresh and crisp, and the pretzel bun, though a little salty, was a great accent. Fries were fresh and fried to perfection. Our server was super nice and let my glass of wine count as part of the Wednesday special. I really want to try their other stuff, like the pizzas, but if nothing else, try the burger. So, so good! read more

So my Aunt has been raving about the burgers here. I like a good burger joint, though this place isn't technically a burger joint. It has pizza, but its not a pizza spot. The inside is like a sports bar, but its not really a sports bar. It has a decent wine and craft brew selection, but its not really a brewpub. So okay, this place is pretty much impossible to classify. Which I assume is pretty much the idea. For the record, I am aware of the social media snafu that occurred here months ago where the general manager viciously attacked an angry customer on social media for her poor review. I guess the fact that this business is still standing must mean they took appropriate action to satisfy their patrons (or at least I hope so). At any rate, my experience didn't have any drama, but did involve some good food. Didn't do any appetizers here as I was told to come here for one reason. The Ivan. This burger was so hyped by my Aunt it was borderline ludicrous. The specs: a pretzel bun, huge juicy patty, tomato, your choice of cheese (I went cheddar), mixed greens, and chipotle mayo. Fantastic burger. The chipotle mayo and the pretzel bun absolutely make the difference. Quality of the beef was excellent. I got mine with a side salad, but you can get fries too. For dessert we got the chocolate molten cake. This was a disappointment. The texture of the chocolate was fine, but the cake itself was rock hard. It was edible, but not especially impressive. The service we received was friendly throughout. Our waitress got confused by a couple of the orders we put in, but quickly rectified the situation so no need to dock her too many brownie points for that. Tonight they had discounts on their burgers so I saved $4 on the Ivan. Total cost for tonights meal including the burger, side salad, a beer, and a chocolate cake, tax and tip was about $25. I'd definitely come back to try some of the rest of their menu. A couple of tips, get here early as parking in the area is pretty limited. Also, sit outside if the weather is right. Its not as noisy and has a great view of the Arcadia neighborhood. And take it from me, the Ivan lives up to the hype. read more

Great food and service! The Wednesday burger and beer special is worth coming in for. Another thing I like is the rotating taps so every time I come in there is something new to try on the draft list. read more

I have driven by this place in the evening. The Attic is kind of a cool comfortable looking place from street level. (Indian School Road). There are plenty of great places to hang out at in that neighborhood. I expected this place to be on par with the rest of them. I was not happy with my experience there. I couldn't tell the help from the customers. No one was in any kind of uniform at all.. The crowd seemed very college like (young and immature) the staff seemed the same way. Great for a very very young crowd, but not my cup of Vodka martini. You can keep this place. The food was not worth the money either, I tossed half of it in the trash when the busboy came by to collect our plates. I will not be going back to this place unless they bring it up several notches. read more

This place has great food and I love Wednesdays here. They would get 4 stars except.... read on MacDuff... They offer a great, ever-changing, selection of microbrewery beers, ales porters and stouts from all over the US and Canada. On Wednesdays you can get their Ivan burger AND a pint of beer for $12. Now, for the bad news... Every, and I mean, EVERY time I've been here, either the service sucks, the server has attitude OR they somehow Fuck up something in the order. Sigh, but I return, always in hope.... read more

The Attic Ale House - Great view, great beer! - Gastropubs Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Cool little hideaway. The room is shaped like a long rectangle and it's situated upstairs in a two-story building. It's not too big to make you feel lost nor too small to make you feel like you're suffocating. Upon entering, you immediately feel like you've entered a hideout...maybe that's just me. The place just feels like it's tucked away in a wide open space. It's different. Their patio has a fireplace and it feels quaint. Sheryl, the waitress, makes eating there feel like you're at your friend's kitchen table. If you are not big on burgers, like me, they have their pizzas. The appetizer menu is limited. But oh the beer list is worth going there just for that. read more

See all

Levi S. Seemed super busy but come to find out hes just drunk off of pink Whitney shots that he specifically told us wouldn't have minded except he forgot about us majority of the time read more

This place was recommended by a friend. Great recommendation indeed! The atmosphere was great, it felt like I was out of town like in a real big city - if you know what I mean. Service was outstanding. Our server was very friendly, always made sure to check in and at the same time gave us our space. Wonderfull! Food, I had mussels and as picky i am with sea food - I would order them again for sure. We also shared a pretzel and it was great! Prices are reasnoble as well. I am looking forward to a cooler weather outside to be able to seat on their beautiful patio. read more

Very cool place. I've driven by this place many times and have also eaten at place next door, (Yacht House), finally a friend brought me here for their "burger weds" and man was I happy he did. So every Weds on top of their already amazing burgers they offer a special which is usually the one i'd suggest to get. Explosion of unique flavors such as Sriracha candied pancetta and something they call "food crack sauce" I've only been here twice and will most def be back. P.S. they have burgers available any night and many beer pairing to go along with the already good food. read more

Fellow elite Lorraine F. and I were in search of bar to watch game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals. She suggested this place and I willingly agreed since I live in the area. Since it was a Wednesday, they have a special for their burgers and beers. I decided to order the hangover burger which comes with an over easy egg. I was pleased with my selection because the burger had quality ingredients such as a pretzel bun. "The bite" for this burger was rather large but I was able to make it happen, lol. I absolutely love their fries because they remind me of pommees frites. I loved them so much I almost wanted to ask for another order, but stopped myself because I was extremely full. Overall, this is a good place to hang out or watch sports. I will definitely be back and check out the outside patio area since it over looks Camelback Mtn. read more
