Happy hour ends at 6:15pm, so come early if your looking for a deal. Had the grilled cheese with short ribs and tasted yummy but small serving compared to some of the yelp photo posts viewed. My friend had the Mac and cheese and it looked really yummy. On a hot day, avoid sitting near the sliding door windows inside. The waitresses tend to use the service computer outside and they would rather air condition the great outdoors than understand that your patrons sitting near the opening are probably sweating their a$$ off because you left the door wide open 10x within a one hour period. I didn't come there to be your door man. Cool decor inside with ample seating. Nice outdoor patio, but kinda noisy since it faces Indian School Road. Need to try more drinks and other food items before I give this place a higher rating. Our server was cool though, so kudos to him. read more

Cool atmosphere. Just wish I could bring my own beer and food. Why? The food is horrible and like most reviews, the beer isnt cold. Service is terrible. I waited at the bar for 10 minutes until the bartender even looked at me. Didnt help either that our bartender told us he had been puking during his shift because he had too much fun the night before. Lastly the bartender didn't use an ice scooper, just dipped the glass with his bare hands into the ice. Pretty nasty. read more

Went to the porch for happy hour on the 2nd. Had a great server, was a very slow night at the restaurant but the young man was very attentive and made sure we had drinks and appetizers. He had recommendations on what he thought was good We didn't feel rushed to leave or anything which is nice. Drinks and apps were ok. Tried the fried pickles, chicken nachos and the soft pretzel fondue. The pretzel was the best out of the three for us. read more

The porch is probably one of my favorite places to grab some food, a couple of drinks, and hangout. The environment around the place is super welcoming and friendly. Last time I came to the porch I had the shrimp salad and it was SUPER delicious most definitely getting that again. Also I can't forget my MVP server EMMA she made sure to check on us every chance she could because of her I will be swinging around to the porch AGAIN!!!! - Happy customer:) read more

Kerry is the best bartender in Arcadia! The quality, food, drinks and service are amazing! Kerry makes the experience worth it! She is smart, service minded and very helpful! Especially with the hustle & bustle, heat and hectic life it is nice to be taken care of by a true professional! The Porch, especially Kerry, is an amazing place! read more

Horrible service. 3 members of our party didn't get their food, server never came back to check on us but was flirting with the table behind us no problem. Went and let them know that we didn't get 3 meals or add ons for another meal. Server blamed the "system" but when the check came the bacon that never came was on the check no problem. Horrible service and was not made right by management. Will never return. read more

Awful experience. Service, we didn't see our server for almost 15min and seeing how we're in a pandemic and server have directly affected you'd like they'd be chopping at the bit. The food, Don't get the big ass bowl of pork stew, it's under seasoned and as for the pork, it tasted like it's been siting the slow cooker all day. read more

I came here for happy hour (or, happiest hour!) with my coworkers, interested to try out a place that I hadn't heard much about. Open-minded and ready for a couple drinks amidst tax season, we took our seats outside at a picnic table. To start, we got bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers, fried pickles, the giant pretzel with cheese, and drinks. My fig mule was just what I needed. The Besos Calientes and skinny margs were very well received by our table. We polished off the first round of apps happily (the pretzel was my favorite, but everything hit the spot) and ordered round two: more jalapeño poppers, twice cooked chicken wings, and the short rib nachos. The wings were alright, but everyone really enjoyed the nachos. We also jumped at the opportunity to try the tacos. One order of each: green chile pork, blackened shrimp, and braised short rib. Plus veggie tacos. YUM. All of them. Service throughout was great. Our girl was friendly and made sure our drinks were never empty. When my friend and I decided to share the Porch burger off the happy hour menu (with a side of the truffle parmesan fries- which I wouldn't recommend only because the truffle was REALLY strong), it came out split and on separate plates. We hadn't even requested it that way! Overall, we were thrilled and appreciative of everything The Porch had to offer. I can't wait to enjoy more patio drinks and eats before the temperature climbs any higher. read more

Great place to spend your sundays watching NFL!! Bartenders were super attentive and so polite. The bbq burgers, chicken quesadilla, wings, and pretzel my husband and I had were delicious! Will def be back! read more

Loved this place! Super trendy inside and out. The patio has a lot going on with swings for benches and a huge ass beach chair. They provide misters so it's actually still bearable to be outside in the summertime. The food was perfection! I went with The Porch burger which didn't disappoint and the sweet potato fries. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. My date got the grilled cheese with prime rib and honestly I kind of wished that I did as well. Not only did it look amazing it tasted like a slice of heaven! Four stars because the staff wasn't very personable. But that's definitely not going to stop me from coming back! read more

I've been coming to the porch for 2 years now and have never had anything but the best service and experience! The atmosphere is so fun, and I LOVE the pickle spears. My favorite server is Lily, she is so attentive, has great recommendations, and is fun!!! Ali and Emma at the bar are amazing, I have nothing but good things to say about the entire staff and establishment. read more

I have to give it to the Porch! My first experience was far from perfect, but they have really worked on their customer service. Kalie, behind the bar, is friendly and went above and beyond to please our small group! The bar is comfortable and fun. There were groups doing beer bongs out of the cutest flamingo! With the open-air floor plan, the games outside and the beer bong flamingo, this place really does feel like a porch party. The food was never the problem, but everything was delicious. The twice baked wings were even better the second time! I can't stop thinking about them and being paired with a beer suggested by Kalie - it was perfect! I'm confident the Porch will be part of our neighborhood for years to come and I can't wait to be part of it's success! read more

So much potential, with the indoor/outdoor setup and great location. The kids menu is hilarious, and helped me convince my 8yo girl to give it a shot. Potential is where it stopped... Was a Saturday afternoon several weeks ago. Not crowded but several tables. We got seated outside right away, and the service ended there. 2 adults and a kid sat for 10-15 minutes without anyone stopping by. Not even waters. The weird thing is there was an abundance of servers ambling about and hanging inside by the bar. Other tables were looking around in wonderment as well. There is no way anyone here received any sort of serious training (or someone is slipping Versed into their staff meals). And where was the floor manager? There should have been one there with a bullwhip, riding herd. We finally got service when we grabbed a passing "meallenial" and begged for waters and service. Our waitress was nice, if a little distracted. Drinks and food came out in decent time. Getting refills was another battle. FYI, Porch, that's how you make money--serve til people are content and turn that shit. So, food. Was adequately prepared, but the basic betch quality of the ingredients conjured images of the Sysco truck out back delivering frozen burger patties. Nothing stood out as thoughtful, except the poached eggs on the avocado toast. Really want to see this place step it up and make it. But if it weren't for the abundance of puppies, the nice weather, and running into some friends, we would have fled after the initial diss. Will give it one more try if I hear there are improvements. C'mon, Porch! Rootin for ya! read more

Great food, awesome food, amazing atmosphere and a shout out to our waitress Faith!!! She killed it with the service bringing food and drinks out quickly and giving suggestions that were all top notch! Highly recommend to everyone and I will be going back to try more drinks and food. read more

The food is usually pretty good here but the last 2 times we've tried to call and place a to-go order no ones answered the phone. Disappointing and won't be ordering here again. read more

Had an early lunch on a Monday so the place was pretty much dead. Service was good and the staff were friendly. I love a Reuben, so I had to have it. It was delicious but the marble rye didn't hold up very well. Not a problem, I grabbed my knife and fork. The pickles and sauerkraut had just the right amount of tartness. Next time I'm in town from L.A., to quote our previous mayor, I'll be back. read more

I've been a regular since The Porch Arcadia opened a few years back . I love this place . It's established itself as a great neighborhood hangout. The food is excellent and the menu constantly improves with new selections. I recently went to a plant based diet and they have many tasty alternatives. Tops for me are the bartenders though, led by Kalie. She's a superstar. Friendly to all, quick service, has my fav cocktail poured as I walk in the door, etc Nice to look at too. I do know and like all the bartenders.... Donovan, Emma, Andrew, Alexa, Yasmine. They simply make it personal and friendly. I need to add a shout out to barback Adam, who knows so many of the customers. I know its a "rush around world" with so many choices , but I strongly suggest you stop in soon. You'll love it too. read more

We had been wanting to check this place out since it opened, but the reviews were so bad. We decided to give it a try anyway one weekend last month. Pros: Nice atmosphere (inside and out), good cocktail (Cougar Bait), tasty pretzels with cheese fondue and a friendly staff Cons: Super slow service...our server never showed up at our table, so we found two seats at the bar; however, our bartender disappeared for quite some time too. Hopefully they can get the kinks worked out on the service side as this place has the potential to be a real success! read more

Stopped by here for some drinks after brunch. The service was good and drinks were cold. I grabbed the Scottsdale blond and it was smooth. Service was fast and efficient, Mickey was awesome on making sure we had something to sip at all times. Cool atmosphere and music was good too. They also have valet parking(Tip the guys). read more

The food was ok. The service was slow from the kitchen to the waitress. For having to social distance..there was none. It was a packed house by but most people wers here for the drinks, didn't really see anyone ordering food. read more

Great place, Alex was a great bartender, super friendly and the the bar stools are really comfy.. like.. really comfy lol read more

Leaving this review to give a shout-out to Mikayla. I was at another restaurant before here down the road...and left because after 45 minutes I wasn't helped at all. Mikayla has incredible customer service and we told her about the other place and she made sure to make our night much better. Plus food is always good! read more

I came back to The Porch last night after visiting one other time in December when they first opened. It was busy because of March Madness. I provided my cell phone when I checked in with the hostess but I never received a text when our table was ready. I also didn't love how many dogs were there. I just feel like it is should maybe be in one designated area. As I was eating dinner, a dog walked under my chair and licked my leg. It was just weird as I was trying to have dinner. I was also disappointed in their nachos this time. They were much smaller, much less meat, and it basically had some white sauce and a little bit of meat. The chips were also stale. read more

I really liked the vibe of this place and the food was delicious! Unfortunately we made the mistake of going on a Sunday morning around brunch time, so the wait was 30 minutes and it took about 45 minutes to get our food. I had the panini and my boyfriend had the wings and some beer. Everything was really good! I'd like to give this place another try when it's less crowded. They do a great job of practicing social distancing and our waitress was helpful with the menu. read more

This place has SO MUCH POTENTIAL. But wooof they had way too much bad to weigh out the good. Let's begin with the good and end with the bad: 1) The food. Holy hallelujah. We started with the bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers and the pretzels. Neither blew me away, but both were good. BUT- I got the French Dip Burger with a side of sweet potato fries and I can't rave about it enough. I think I finished it in 4 minutes with not a crumb to spare. 2) Ambiance! Great out door area!! The decor everywhere is super nice too. Like even the bathrooms Ok that's all the good. 3) We came at happy hour. We ordered the happy hour beer. Specifically asked for 'the one on happy hour'. Instead we were given the size up (which was $4 more) without being asked. 4) Just like every other reviewer says -The service was bad. We were served our apps without any silverware. Once asked for silverware, the hostesses took 5 minutes to retrieve it. My water was filled once and it was empty for over 20 min at one point. Also -The guy tried too hard - but not enough. For example, see 2). He 'figured' we would want a larger beer. He charged us all completely wrong and one of my friends twice. We tried to flag him down to fix it, but after 10 minutes, gave up. I don't know - this place has so much potential but needs some major fixes. read more

Here with the girls, cool hangout! Logan is def the best thing going on tonight! The music is a little too loud for good conversation, the food was a 6/10 not a fan of thick tortillas but the shrimp was great!! Next time we want to sit in the porch!! read more

This place was awesome. Plenth of out door games, inside games like darts, ski ball, basketball and shuffle board. The food was AMAZING. I had their french dip burger. It was so good, id recoment requesting more oniona if u like onions. read more

The Porch - Sports Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I'll start with the decent: our waitress was nice enough, the cocktail was pretty good, and the happy hour prices were acceptable* The weird: we sat at a table with these faux Adirondack chairs which fit the style of the porch well, however the table was WAY too high for the low style seats. I am short, so the table was at my collar bone. My husband is tall, and was still uncomfortable. Seems like quite the sacrifice for style. Also seems easily fixable: lower the tables. The bad: the food is terrible. We ordered happy hour bar snacks, and while expectations for finger food are always low, it was remarkably bad. The pretzels and fondue were definitely not house-made, but previously frozen pretzels and fondue from a can. It is easy to make a fondue, and a reasonable expectation for a restaurant to serve house made fare. The chicken tacos were edible, but the green salsa was like water. *If the food had been even decent, the happy hour prices would have been a fair price. However, since I can buy the exact same food at costco and reheat it as they did, I find the prices to be extortion. read more

Just keep driving and go to OHSO. As a proud dog mom, I am always looking for great places to take my little fur child to eat some dinner. Not only was the staff rude when I called to make sure their patio was dog-friendly (this should've been a clue), our original server was so terrible that after we moved tables our new server was ALSO saying how bad she was! WHAT?! The food was horribly overpriced and wasn't good. Service was terrible. Husband was irritated, dog was irritated, and we paid $75 to end up still hungry. read more

I had the Nashville Chicken Sammy. Best chicken sandwhich I've had in AZ so far! Crispy and very fresh! Definitely a sleeper on the menu.

Pretty much like most of the other reviews... Too much Scottsdale.. Below average service.. Decent food... We came in at 9:30pm, told to sit wherever. We picked a patio table. Waitress in a midriff took our order. Food was good, drinks were prompt. But while still eating she said "well it's 10 so here's your bill and anything else you need you can get at the bar". She just wanted to close out and leave. She literally said "If I could just get your card that would be great." Might come back cause it's a cool place, but your rolling the dice on service. read more

Super pumped they came to this neighborhood, however we don't need just another bar. Make something we don't have. The only thing I found decent was the service. They have 300 employees but they all want to charge double. Really... chicken fingers with a side of ranch and buffalo, two double WELL Vodka sodas= $66 buck. Hahahaha they charged me $4 for a side of ranch and buffalo. Each drink was $20. This place is a joke and that is HWY robbery. Why would anyone go there. *** Hey owner!!!!*** We aren't dumb, go rip someone else off! read more

Pretty neat new spot in Arcadia, with nice bar and TV's w/ sports. Check and check twice your order(s) if you get food to go. Ordered Chicken Caesar salad w/ dressing on side....No dressing. Ordered Short Rib teriyaki bowl w/ extra short rib....no extra short rib. How hard is it to get a to-go order correct/ Maddening. May return for bar, but no more than than that. read more

Ok.. so I really wanted this place to be awesome and I totally want to give new restaurants a break while they get their footing- but this was ridiculous. The food was not very good and small portions. They "ran out" of their ingredients to the drink I ordered - one that was highlighted on their menu. And most frustratingly- they somehow put my son's' order on a separate ticket and it took 20 minutes AFTER the rest of the food arrived and no attempt to make it right by comping, or offering a dessert for the wait. We barely saw out waitress. For a new business to mess up and not ever try to apologize to customers doesn't bode well. I would have given another start or 2 had the waitress been more apologetic or a manager had come to apologize. But I guess customer service is not that important. I hope it improves. read more

This star isn't for the food or drinks, it's for the crappy customer service by management. Called today (Monday) to make a reservation for next Saturday (1/13) for a birthday party for 8 people, two of which are kids. They called me back about a half hour later saying they couldn't actually take our reservation because there's a football game that day. Um, what? We just wanted a table to come eat and celebrate and you can't take our reservation because it might be busy? That's why we're asking to reserve a table. We asked for an early reservation at 3pm. The girl I spoke with was very nice and I'm not shooting the messenger. I just find it rude that a new place in the area is turning bigger parties away because they're anticipating a big football crowd. The good news is there are plenty of other restaurants that we will be happy to celebrate at. The Porch won't miss us, but considering the already less than stellar reviews, maybe they should. My dad (the birthday boy) was looking forward to this place so that's a big bummer :( read more

Ordered for take out and it was phenomenal. I was having some major comfort food cravings (read: real pregnant) and got chicken tenders and sweet potato fries. Maybe it's the hormones, but they were so delicious I shed a tear. Can't wait to go check out the place in person when it's safe to do so. Highly recommend! read more

This place is busy... no doubt.. however, they still have kinks to work out with food and drinks. Been sitting here with three other people, first round of drinks came out in a reasonable amount of time, but second round we were told that the bar is backed up due to last call for happy hour. Food has taken a long time as well. Hope things can get worked out, as good food and prompt service will bring you loyal customers for sure. read more

My boyfriend and I were excited to check this new place out! He arrived before me and had trouble waving down the server. Once I arrived, we noticed that the server section was too much and he could never get caught up. It was hard seeing such a great server drowning while management was just standing there. When we attempted to order the PBLT, we were informed that they decided not to work with pork belly...? Why have it on the menu...? I thought this was interesting considering they just opened... I ordered the vegan poke bowl and the portions were incredibly small for the price. When the nachos arrived the steak was cold, but had decent flavoring. Between the portion size and cold steak I had to give 3 stars. Hopefully before Phoenix's busy season they can figure It all out. read more

Our first time here and we loved it! The vibes are great and our bartender was super sweet! This reminds me of a bar I would see back east! Great food as well! We will def be back :) read more
