We ordered blackened salmon, it so salty and sweet. The vegetables weee absolutely not edible. I don't recommend this restaurant at all. The appetizers are horrible, low quality. read more

Changing my review dramatically after this experience. The one star is for the nice blonde waitress that helped us out. We came to spend a good amount on alcohol and apps. Ended up leaving. First it took us 10 minutes to even get our drinks. My moms dewars ice cube was covered in brown gunk. They brought her a new one. Said they had her drink was compt but it never was. She never came back to get our second round. So we ordered from someone else. Then she came and said they're coming, took 15 minutes. We asked for the bill and it was wrong. Not going here read more

The NY steak was cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes were great but y'all need to get rid of the charred broccoli. That is seriously the worst side dish I've ever had in my life. KFC has better sides just saying. Gross. read more

Hard to give a total score as we didn't try that much stuff, but it was good for us. Daughter had a cinnamon roll which was gigantic, she took some. I had the Union burger and it was great. Fries were good but not great. Service was really nice, very good and chill. read more

We went The Union today for lunch and it was an extremely disappointing time. It took 20 minutes after we were seated just to get water in a filthy water jug. My wife ordered soup and a Ceasar salad and I ordered shrimp and grits and pb & j tacos. The server bought my wife a lukewarm soup 20 minutes before any of our other food came out which was very frustrating since salad doesn't seem like a stretch to bring with soup. Our server got our bill wrong because other people were putting in drink orders she forgot about. It seems she was out of her element and confused. Overall it was time consuming and not enjoyable due to waiting times and poor service. The lukewarm soup was a big disappointment, the other dishes were good but did not make up for bad service and dirty water jug. May have been our last visit. read more

Kinda industrial and dark and cold decor but food really good and great beer choices. Nice happy hour for sure

This is a no-go! Service was the worst I've ever experienced. The manager was extremely rude and condescending. I would definitely not recommend! read more

Yoooo! Never have I ever had this type of experience out. If the staff was having a bad today, we felt it. The waitress told my brother in law he couldn't order for his wife, the MANAGER told my brother "can you not see me? Move out of the doorway!" The manager then came and told the waitress to "take care of this" while pointing her fingers at our table. That' when I spoke up. After we complained about treatment, she said "what do you want out of this?". What! I want to be treated with respect when I'm a paying customer. Maybe she has an issue with Arabs? Maybe she had an issue that there were multiple tens sitting at the table? But to decide to refuse service to me and 10 of my friends and family because I confronted her about her ill treatment towards us is not acceptable. We were trying to go out and change our mood - today's world is not easy! Instead, we were met with more negativity and stress. If you don't want customers, then maybe you should close your doors. If you don't want to listen to your customers when you're impolite more than once, close your doors. Thank you mean manager lady, I see you and your power trip. I hope you step on a Lego tonight. Barefoot. read more

Music is unbearably loud and can't have any conversation with the servers. But the drinks are good on whiskey Wednesday, I recommend getting there early before the whole u of a shows up. Food is also mediocre. read more

Tram hands down......best server I've EVER had. 10/10. I've never had better service EVER. LITERALLY WONDERFUL. I literally couldn't have asked for any better service. read more

Went there tonight with a business group of 7 adults. We drank wine each ordered food, we spent a total of 3 plus hours there and continued ordering drinks ( individual) and additional food. 2 of the 7 original left and the remaining 5 of us ordered a pizza to share and a couple people ordered glasses of wine. We were still into the pizza when a guy who looked and had the demeanor and lack of decorum of an average 13 year old came by the table and said he was the manager. He said he had a big group that had walked in and was waiting for a table for a while. Even though we still had wine and pizza , he asked us if he could close us out so he could seat another group. We had never received any bill yet. When a couple of us said no problem, we will leave however we were about to order another glass of wine, he said I'll give you a booth for four ( we were 5) and I'll buy your wine. We said , no need and just get us the check. Checks came separately as we came in and ordered at various times. When acompletely different waitress than the one we had came by and picked up the cards and checks, she dropped mine and it went under the table.The waitress looked at me and said" you know we have clip boards and you're supposed to clip the charge card underneath the clip! Then she suggested I crawl under the table to get my card! I suggested she try not to teach me about how clipboards work and she might be in order to retrieve my card. She did get it and then came close to me and said, "have you had too much to drink tonight, Mam". I told her she has my bill in her hand and can see for herself that I had one drink all night and was about to consider a second one before her boss said he wanted our table. The whole thing was surreal. The manager walked by and I told him I didn't appreciate the waitress's impertinence. He said he was busy and had a " lot going on to deal with it". For three hours we had a fabulous time, food is mediocre 1 grade above fast food, the unfortunate thing was thatfinal 10 min. Of such poor taste from management and a waitress that was all the five of us talked about and will likely be the reason we don't go back! I'm sorry for whoever owns this place as it's a great location. It was busy tonight but of the five times I've ever been there, this was the only night I've ever seen more than a handful of table full, so I don't see it having a bright future...at least not under current management. It's so important for restaurants to hire seasoned talent rather than let unskilled kids run the place, unless you're McDonalds and even there they exhibit more tact and decorum. read more

I really enjoy going the Union! Specially on Whiskey Wednesday, when they have half off all Whiskey. Their atmosphere is great, really laid back and chill, but at the same time you get a more sophisticated feel. Their appetizers are good, I really recommend their Crispy Cauliflower, it is my all-time favorite! read more

My daughter and I went here recently for lunch. We were drawn by the "poutine" on the menu. As a former native from Drummondville, Quebec, (where poutines were actually "born") I know poutines--so when I saw this on the menu. We ordered the poutine and the sliders. The poutine arrived and looked wonderfully. Each of the elements was met: fries--excellent, sauce--good. cheese-good. However, the method of preparation made the dish difficult to eat. The traditional way of making poutine is cheese on bottom, fries on top and sauce poured. The cheese is cut small so it will melt. The cheese was cut too large and placed on top--this made it hard to eat and there was not enough sauce to melt the cheese. I would not have it again in this manner. The sliders however, were amazing--the meat was incredible, the bun perfection and the bacon perfect. I highly recommend. When I mentioned the poutine "issues" my server was not gracious--but rather defensive and looked at me like I was an idiot. I tried to explain that calling it a poutine really is a misnomer--it's just cheese fries...it's kind of like ordering a filet mignon and getting a t bone steak. The atmosphere, and the restaurant were BEAUTIFUL! Prices on the high side,but I think it would fulfill most people's needs for a good restaurant. I just wouldn't order the poutine again :) read more

Been here many times and have yet to be disappointed. Delicious food and drinks. The restaurant has a great vibe inside and out.

What started out as a nice drink and appetizer turned ugly. There was hardly anyone in the place ,so can't blame that. Anyways the bartender had no clue of what she was doing. She didn't know what drink she made first and had to ask us, and then tried to charge an extra drink on the tab. When we brought it to her attention ,she insinuated we were lying. Oh my God ! It was so insulting. It was 3 drinks and we were charged for four ,easy math. So we called the manager and he was totally disrespectful. Obviously the customers have no say at this business. We will never go back with that kind of service and disrespect. Don't bother with this place. read more

For some reason not allowed to sit at a table and have a drink with others who are not 21. They were trying to force us to sit separately if two of us wished to drink and were not very nice. Went to Reforma the security guard followed us and told us we were unable to sit down all together yet again. Will not be coming here again read more

Totally arrogant ownership and staff. Really rude people. The music is great but when more places can open up for music, this place is history, read more

It takes forever to get a table sometimes & the service can be pretty slow here, but the food and drinks make it worth coming. Come get some appetizers to share and a main course-- everyone is always happy with their food! Full Menu: - Poutine Fries - Mac & Cheese - Pub Chips #2 - Whiskey BBQ Pizza - Chicken & Waffle - Union Burger - Pot Pie - Combo Cutting Boards (cheese and meat) Sunday Brunch: - Benedict - French Toast - Bloody Mary - Mimosas read more

Don't get why this place doesn't have better ratings. When I come here I know I am in for a SOLID meal and some fabulous cocktails. My husband and his pals seem to feel the same way, as they frequent this place regularly. For appetizers, I've had the poutine fries which are ridiculous. Who can complain about a plate of thick fries smothered in salty gravy with gooey, melted cheese on top? This is a must try. The macaroni and cheese is a solid option as well, and the last time I ordered it, it arrived in cute little cast iron dish. My husband has ordered the chicken scallopini which he says is amazing. And the best thing of all is they serve a Beyond Burger here that is also great. read more

Service terrible every time I'm here whether it is at the bar or at a seated table. Servers usually young attractive women, so if you are into that, maybe their competence isn't important. Service needs to improve drastically before I ever take friends there. Food is okay but the burger is always well done no matter how you ask for it to be made. Fish and chips are the safest thing to get on the regular menu. Rotating specials are usually better than regular menu. There are lots of high class hookers that come here looking for customers on Wednesday nights and weekends. Don't ask me how I know. Smoking area smoke regularly gets into other areas of the restaurant. This place could be so much more than it is and I gave it about a dozen attempts. If you like to party and don't care that it will take effort to get the server or bartenders attention when your drink is empty, this may be the spot for you. It's two steps above a hooters in my opinion. Their sister restaurant next door is much better in terms of food quality and service. read more

We were in town for parents weekend and got a recommendation for a good place for our group for dinner. We were not disappointed! Emma our waitress was very attentive and took great care of us. Excellent recommendations for apps and dinner. We had the hummus, Brussel sprouts and sliders for sharing. For dinner I had the Osso Bucco. It was falling off the bone delicious! Others had fish and chips, burger. Everyone left happy! The venue is nicely appointed. Clean and minimalistic. Good patio and lots of TVs to watch the games on. read more

The young rude male manager snapped at us for attempting to sit on their patio for food and drinks. He barked that IF we were going to have our tiny Chihuahua with us, she would have to sit on the floor instead of in my lap! Wth? We eat out 5 times a week all over Tucson and have never had anyone tell us to put her on the ground? He was spiteful and rude, and she is 3lbs so we left. Here's a tip, TAKE DOG FRIENDLY OFF your menu if you really don't want people with dogs to be served. REPLY.........Like I said every single other place we've been allows it with us and others. You know, reading the reviews..it seems like a bigger problem, is with leadership never owning their mistakes instead of what seems a constant defending of your actions. Good luck with that read more

Wish we could rate the service, however their was none on the patio. Went inside to ask for help, still no service. We did get a weather report from the staff. We left the place. read more

Went on a whiskey Wednesday- 1/2 off whiskey! The place was filling up fast when we arrived, even at 515. It is more of an upscale place, however they were acceptable of most any attire. Most people were wearing collared shirts, nice dresses, etc. 3 of us split the charcuterie board to start off - it was fantastic. Grilled grapes, pork belly, ham, baked Brie just to list a couple items. Main course was the ramen bowl for me. I opted to add Ahi tuna, but I must say - the bowl is huge! The tuna portions were also large and I simply could not finish the whole thing. But it was really good. Great selection of beer and liquor. Definitely check this place out. read more

Good spot next to my hotel. Atmosphere was great. A little on the pricey side but good quality food and service was good

I went to the union for the time and am sad to say I was a bit disappointed with the food. I had the Shrimp Oscar flatbread which was ok it was quite salty. I may return and try something else just because of the great things I heard about them before but not soon. The staff and service was great and friendly and the space itself is very nice read more

I have been coming here for a while now...Security really loves to put themselves above the customer any petty chance that they get here. Wont see me spending any money here or their partners "reforma" any time soon because of it. Learn to respect your customers. This place used to be awesome but the owners are letting it get ugly, seems typical with any restaurant that has a couple successful quarters now a days. RIP UNION . read more

Thoroughly clean, well-spaced for social distancing, friendly staff, great weeknight drink specials!

Really yummy! Nice for a casual dinner. Especially love their chicken fingers and drinks.

One evening my husband and I were watching a food network episode about chicken and waffles and suddenly we had to have chicken and waffles. I had been to UnionPublic House for lunch of pizza years before. However, when it came up as a recommendation for chicken and waffles, I became obsessed with trying theirs. We were seated, on a crowded evening without reservations ,on the patio; it was windy but as soon as our meal started I was transported into a different world! WOW! Absolutely a dish done right. Crispy without being greasy and the chicken is juicy and generously portioned. Chicken and Waffles comes with a bacon infused maple syrup, apple butter and Sriracha sides. We also are quite fond of the pickle mason jar starter. Just a unique choice for starter which is done right. Since my re-acquaintance with Union Public House i've had meals with friends that I wished never ended. The atmosphere is comfortable and the staff is consistent and friendly. There is no place inside without the TV sets over the bars calling your eyes, so now that the weather is cooling I think the patio is the place to be. I have had happy hour starters and drinks, that just aren't the draw for me to come. My friends love their burgers and always order them when we've dined at Union Public House. All in all and what really counts, is that i've leave with that buzzy feeling that I've just had a GREAT meal. read more

Sat at the bar for 20 minutes and the bartenders never came to take our order. We ended up leaving. Poor service.

The food is good here - appetizers are fun (yes try the pretzel and the mason jar) and the beers are tasty. We love the fish and chips (ask for twice the slaw and half the chips) and the burgers from time to time. The one complaint I have is the table size. A table for 4 will not fit drinks and plates, if you add even one appetizer or an extra glass. My suggestion go off hours and sit at the bar. read more

We recently ate at this gastropub and found their food and service excellent. They have a limited menu, as is typical of gastropubs, but they put out excellent dishes. Service is also top notch. My wife and I tried two different hamburgers, the Union burger (basically a cheese burger), and the Mushroom Melt burger. Both were excellent. The ingredients in their dishes were of high quality, the burgers were massive, juicy, and very tasty. They were cooked just right. They were served on a fresh brioche bun which was also delicious. Would definitely recommend them if you are looking for a top notch burger and great service. read more

First time in Tucson and stumbled across this gem. Beautiful atmosphere for outdoor dining. The highlight of the meal was the poutine. The most divine combination of savory and salty magic! read more

Very mediocre bar fare. Couldn't seem to get our drink order correct and overcharged us. Won't be going back.

So, I've been to the union on several occasions and have always had great service. However, today was just the opposite. I stopped at the hostess stand and was ignored for a good five minutes while a blonde gal and another employee flirted. So I walked on and sat myself. I've sat myself before, so I didn't think it would be a problem. A few minutes later, rather than being waited on I was met by the blonde from the hostess station with a nasty tone that I'm not allowed to seat myself and I'll need to go back to the entrance. I pointed out that I had waited here to be seated earlier while she was standing here. I told her I'll find somewhere else to eat, in which she returned have a nice day in her best little brat tone. Is this the future of The Union? Employing little brats with zero people skills that get paid to flirt while on the job. Well fortunately there are other establishments at St. Phillips plaza that have employees with better manners. read more

We started with the BBB and preztels, which were delicious. The tomahawk chop was unique and bold. The butter lettuce salad was light and just hit the spot. This place takes classic bar food/comfort food and elevates it to something new. We'd come back and recommend others to try it out. read more

Had a wonderful time here during their happy hour (starts at 3pm!) with a friend. We both started off with some wine selections ($6 a glass during happy hour) and enjoyed them beyond belief. My friend ordered a mason jar of their pickled veggies, which was a fun snack. I ordered the pub chips #2 and was pleasantly surprised at how big the portion was. YUMMY! Will definitely be back and highly recommend this place. Gorgeous setting, easy location. Perfect for happy hours with friends. read more

When I went to Union Public , I arrived before 6pm and found out they had a happy hour menu between 3pm-6pm that includes food on a little computer notepad menu. The server was kind enough to point out the menu -- I was looking at the paper one. Being on a weight loss challenge, I was looking for something healthy. And look! There's a Caesar Salad ($6) with optional grilled chicken (add $5) nestled between the fries and Mac & Cheese. I got the salad with the added chicken and it was pretty darn good. They put a lot of chicken on top so it filled me up. When the food tastes good, eating healthy is a breeze. My mason jar iced tea was ok. read more

Just moved to Tucson! Today was a friend's birthday. She rented a limousine, went wine-tasting, and just wanted to go dancing afterwards. So we set out looking for a country bar. We met Grant, the owner of Union at Maverick's Country Bar managing some workers. He informed us that Mav was under construction, but could tell we were ready to party, so he immediately called and reserved us a table at Union. He did not disappoint! The Union has awesome vibes, great people, amazing food, and great drinks. Grant took his hospitality one step further when he came to Union to buy the birthday gal a shot of Don Julio (and also bought a round for the whole table). Low and behold, there was live music and a DJ later on, and the birthday lady got to dance the night away. Unforgettable night!!! 10/10 would recommend this bar and I know it will be a favorite spot for me over the years. Thanks for everything, Grant! We'll definitely be back (like every weekend) read more
