    Really cute small tap room with tons of amazing choices and reasonable pricing. Love the small inviting atmosphere and handwritten menu. Also LOVE that there is a cool old school gaming system so our kiddo enjoys coming with us too. Service has been excellent every time. Love to have a new place close by like this!

    Stopped in after work. Alex was very friendly and had great suggestions on beer. Customer service was top notch .

    This place has a ton of games and it would be an amazing date night! They have a ton of beer and wine choices. I had the sangria and it was super refreshing and my wife had the pomegranate mule. There is a lot of room at the bar and little bar stools all around. The bartender was quick to check in. I just wish he was a little more friendly. This was our first time coming so it would've been nice to have some conversation and a little more information on the beers and drinks other than reading a board. This is a very calm space from what we experienced. It seems like it is a local sport; not to many people. I think the time we stayed there was about 5 people in addition to us. It looks like they have a happy hour from 1-7 everyday. The only other thing I wish they had was dine in foods. It does look like they offer snack foods. It looks like they offer a grilled cheese, popcorn; and a meat & cheese board. They also allow you to bring your own food in if you want which is super nice!

    Great local joint with a sizable menu of rotating beers on tap. One of our favorite spots to try new drekker beers / fruited sours / local brews

    Stopped in here thinking it was a restaurant since I was shopping in the area but it's more like a pub-type environment. Upon entry, I immediately felt out of place as the staff and everyone inside(only a few people were inside) looked at me as if I didn't belong in there. Talk about an awkward moment so instead of seating myself to explore and possibly stick around, I just started snapping a few photos and left. I was so out of place and was such in shock at not being greeted by the lady who worked there that my nervous awkward moment kicked in. Nope, I'll never return and nope I don't recommend it unless you've visited before and fit in. I'm not 100%sure that they are used to diversity, to be honest ...seriously you wouldn't know what I meant unless you've experienced some type of uncomfortable " you don't belong here" moment! Js ‍ It's a no for me but don't take my word for it... go check it out for yourself! ‍ ‍‍ I'm still not sure if they serve food or other drinks besides beer ... On a positive note, it's a cute set up inside

    Our favorite new bar. It's close to home, the service is great, the beer selection even GREATER! We have been here on quiet days, and we have been here during a ROCK PAPER SCISSORS competition! Good vibes, always!

    Excellent service and a cute setting. Played some Friends Trivia while eating and drinking.

    Ask the Community - The Whining Pig - Gilbert

    Can you watch NFL games here?

    We have multiple TVs and can showcase all public games but don’t have the NFL ticket. Thanks for asking!

    Can you bring your own food? Do they have a food menu?

    They have 4 types of flatbreads and a meat/cheese board. I feel like they'd be cool with outside food, but I've never specifically asked. Really cool vibe in all of their locations, though!

    Is there a live music?

    Sometimes there is - we had a guitarist playing the night we were there.

    What's some of the HH pricing? Reasonable?

    Happy Hour runs 7 days/wk, 1-8pm! It's $2 regular prices, so a good deal.. and runs later than most HH's. Good for weekend day drinking!

    Do they have trivia night?

    I don't think so but they do have trivia cards on the bar and a couple board games to play.

I'm def a wine enthusiast & enjoyed many wineries while living in CA so I am excited to explore the AZ scene. Staff was helpful in choosing some wines and answering any questions on the wine. We were helped by the lovely Danielle & Sarah which were super personable our whole visit. We started with a board and a bottle The board was so yummy & perfect for 2 for sharing, the cheeses on this board went well together and I think my favorite item on the board were the pickles they were unlike any other pickles I've ever tasted before really tickled my tastebuds. I was able to sample the rose & the Pinot noir & ended up ordering a glass of that as well. It was the last night for live music & im glad we were able to experience it because it will not be back till September due to the weather! They have indoor & outdoor seating, we started inside & ended outside. I will def be back to try their other wines! Thanks for such a fun time.

It's the kind of restaurant that makes getting dressed up feel exciting and worth it, and I absolutely loved that about the experience. It felt like such a perfect date night spot or place to celebrate something special. The servers were also extremely attentive the entire night. Everyone was friendly, professional, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling overbearing. The service honestly matched the upscale atmosphere perfectly and made the whole experience feel even more polished. And OMG... the food. SO SO SO SO SO GOOD. Like genuinely one of those meals where every single bite makes you pause for a second because it tastes that incredible. I got the chicken orzo along with the lime icebox cake for dessert, and both were absolutely amazingggg. The chicken orzo was phenomenal. The lemon flavor throughout the orzo was bright, fresh, and flavorful without being overpowering, and the tomatoes were the PERFECT addition because they balanced everything so well and added a little sweetness and freshness to the dish. But the chicken... wow. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside while still being super juicy and tender inside, which is honestly hard to do. Every component of the dish worked together perfectly. Magnificent is genuinely the best word for it. And the lime icebox cake was the perfect ending to the meal, refreshing, creamy, flavorful, and not too heavy after dinner. Honestly, I'm sitting here craving the food again just looking back at the pictures I took. This is definitely one of those restaurants that sticks in your mind long after you leave.

The restaurant itself is very cute and clearly designed for photos, which matches what I saw on their Instagram. Service overall was fantastic. The food, however, was just okay. I ordered the burrata and fig plate and was told they'd replace the bread with apple slices. I received five very small slices of apple, and when the plate was set down the waitress said she'd get more if needed. I later noticed I was charged $2 for an additional five slices, which together didn't even amount to half an apple. Ironically, the bread that comes with the dish would have been far more substantial. The burrata was fine, but nothing memorable. My friend ordered the chicken and brussels sprouts and didn't even finish it before having the plate taken away. The flourless almond cake was the star, a bit salty on its own, but with the ice cream and whipped cream it was a delightful combo which were the highlight. Overall, this is a great spot for cocktails, ambiance, and photos, but the food is fairly mediocre compared to the setting.

I came in with both celiac and low fod map (food elimination). Upon sitting and taking drink orders, he also offered a gluten free bread for me to enjoy with my family while we looked over the menu. BEST GLUTEN FREE BREAD IVE EVER HAD! Must be made with rice flour or something because it was soft with a little bounce, versus the usual "dry and grainy" we are used to. Id fly back across the country again just for that bread honestly. Even if youre not gluten free, ask for it. AANNDDDD this is a scratch kitchen!! I was able to look over the GLUTEN FREE MENU!!
