| - Reading through the massive number of reviews that Casey's gets, lots of people have a great time here and some people have unfortunately had a terrible time and depending on which night you go, each scenario is a possibility. Most often, when coming here, I've had a pretty good time, even when it so crowded you can't sit down and your elbows are literally touching like the back of a stranger.
I like to come in the afternoon or on an off-night like Wednesday night (it is Wednesday, so I may partake). Their selection of beers isn't staggering or anything, but the food there is actually pretty damn decent and they have a fair number of appetizers to choose from that aren't too heavy.
Like I said, sometimes I've been here on days where it's totally bullshit. I remember I came here once with my girlfriend at the time and we literally didn't get served for about thirty minutes. I would've bailed but it was her first time there so I was like, "We're gonna do this shit." The same waitress who took her sweet-ass time spent maybe like three seconds talking to and then on her way to get our beers, she stopped at a table with these dudes with British accents and giggled and slapped her knee and sat there for like maybe five minutes. I was like, "Oh, great... our waitress is a whore for accents and two dudes with British accents are here. We're fucked." Yes, I admit, the English are quite charming, quite, but sonofabitch, man.
For like the longest time, that waitress would always be there when I was there and no matter where I sat, it was her section. And there she was, takin' forever and lookin' mad at me. Haven't seen her there in forever so I've lucked out.
You know, it's easy to complain, but most often I've had a really good time. I love the atmosphere outside, the misters in the summer and sipping on a hot coffee in the winter. All year round, it's fucking awesome to be there. I love sitting by the koi pond, sipping on a beer and watching the fish go by.
It's a relaxing place when it wants to be and a fuckin' madhouse when the time arises. It's one of the best landmarks we have in Tempe.
