Yep. This place is as good as it gets. When I lived in Tempe, Boulders on Broadway was my friendly neighborhood bar. Now that I have a more permanent location in the Arcadia area this is where I go. A quick bike ride up the 48th street greenbelt and im there!
As everyone says, the back patio is awesome. I spend the majority of my time here. Love seeing all the different dogs and love all the local beer choices. I am currently drinking quite a bit of dragoon IPA which they seem to always have on tap. The prices are fair and the food is great. I like their small bites menu for late night munchies. A couple beers split up with a pretzel makes for a good night.
If you have friends in town and want to show them a little local flavor, check this place out. So many local beers and they also micro-brew in house. The back patio shows off our great weather, their menu features local ingredients such as the yucca chips. This place is the epitome of your local bar.
