| - I can't get over how rad this place is. From the top down, this place offers an exceptional drinking and dining experience.
Spokes features well over twenty taps of rotating beers from around the country (though most are from the west/southwest). A not insignificant number of taps feature local brews, including beers from Four Peaks. If you like beer and enjoy sampling a lot of different brews, you will LOVE Spokes.
I would love Spokes just for the beer, but their food is even better. If you've never dined here before, you need to start with the grilled cheese. They start with a robust blend of cheeses and allow you to customize it with nearly fifteen different fillings ranging from bacon and tomato to pear and basil. I have never had a better grilled cheese from a restaurant before. My boyfriend fills his with tomato and avocado, while I usually opt for pear, basil, and onion (and sometimes I get adventurous with jalapeƱo, which they freshly slice in the kitchen). Served with a healthy helping of the most delicious waffle fries, this all-American classic will delight your tastebuds.
Desserts aren't on their menu, but the chef writes them out on a chalkboard on the dining room. There's an area for your little ones, karaoke starting at 9 on Tuesdays, trivia on Mondays, and a super chill vibe every day. The patio overlooks the lake and is dog-friendly.
Ultimately, a bar with great beer and fabulous food is nothing without great customer service. Dave and Scott are two of the bartenders here, and they are some of the best in the business. They clearly love their jobs, and it's fun to chat with them about beer (or anything, really). They're honest about what they like and dislike and are always good for a recommendation if you're not sure what beer to order.
If you're looking for a fab place to hang, drink delicious beer, and get a great meal, look no further than Spokes. You won't be disappointed.
