  • How have I not reviewed The Watershed yet? Let me fix that tout suite! BACKGROUND I first heard about The Watershed in 2016 when some friends took me here for brunch, and I've been a fan ever since. THE WATERSHED The Watershed is situated on a 52 acre lake with over 4,000 square feet of lakeside patio and a spacious interior that boasts lake views from every seat. Located in the Lakes community at Lakeshore Drive, south of Baseline Road (next to another patio bar and cafe, Pier 54), The Watershed is the patio-focused project of Valley residents Dan and Robin Scott, who opened their new cafe and bar of American eats on December 8, 2013. The name, "The Watershed," gets inspiration from the watersheds of the southwest. John Wesley Powell (the Lake Powell, Powell) defined a watershed as, 'That area of land, a bounded hydrologic system, within which all living things are inextricably linked by their common water course and where, as humans settled, simple logic demanded that they become part of a community.' That's what they strive to be: a place where people come together to meet, to eat, to cheers, to sing, to dance, to rekindle, to relax and to revel in the moment. THE STORY & SERVICE EXPERIENCE I was surprised the first time I was introduced to The Watershed, because I had no idea Tempe had such a place. The Watershed didn't look like much to me from the parking lot, but when we walked in, the view was outstanding. Is it an International 5/5 Star view? No, but it's pretty damn spectacular, especially for Tempe. I really liked the restaurant/bar too. It's all wood and it has a open floor plan, that makes the view visible from every seat. The first time I came, I had the bloody mary and crab cakes. That's the day I became a fan. The experience was that great for me. I've come countless times since then. I've watched the sunset many times, whilst having their specialty drinks, and eating the sliders and coconut shrimp. I've come for Sunday brunch many times. I love sitting on the patio, whilst drinking mimosas and eating pancakes. It's also a fun place to just drop in for some fresh raspberry martinis and soft tacos, whilst watching live music. I even enjoyed the lake boat ride one Sunday with Captain Doug. The bartenders/servers have ALWAYS been FANTASTIC: Two of my favorites are Katie and Aaron, but everyone is 100%. CONCLUSION I openly admit having a bit of a crush on this establishment; mostly because I've only had positive experiences here. The food is outstanding. The view is the best in Tempe. The service is always on point. My only complaint is the mosquitos on the patio, so I bring bug spray. 5/5 RECOMMEND OF NOTE *Closed on Mondays. *Sunday Brunch with Boat Rides. *Available for special occasions. *Plenty of parking out front.
