Duke’s Tavern

dun dun dun… another one bites the dust… dun dun dun… another one bites the dust.
and another one does, and another one does, another one bites the dust.
3^rd bar to fail in this location… NEXT!!!

Out of business sign. Closed. :(maybe it will be under new ownership but it’s definitely not open. Don’t bother stopping by for now.

Came here after work to have dinner and drinks with a friend. It was a slow Monday night and we were one of the only customers there. No matter — we were here just to chill and enjoy libations and some food. They have their own food truck — Duke’s Express and it was parked outside not far from where I parked. I figured if they have their own food truck — the way Hungry Monk’s does, then there should be a big emphasis on the food — bit more than your average sports bar. So anyway, I started out with a few pints of Mr. Pineapple from the San Tan Brewery that they have on tap — solid choice. I ended up ordering the chicken fried steak over mashed potatoes with gravy. It was pretty good — I would actually go back and order it again but I want to try some of their other items that seem to be popular like the mac and cheese with bacon. Looks good in the photo and I’m sure it wasn’t photoshopped. They have one of those TouchTunes jukeboxes like most bars seem to have these days. Maybe Monday early evening isn’t the time to go because right as we were leaving people seemed to be coming in. Place is in the mall on the northwest corner of Ray and Rural. Entrance is at the north side. Plenty of parking — it’s a mall.

This place has a pretty large beer list, the apple pie moonshine goes down smooooth, and the quesadillas were amazing. Ordered the Mac n Cheese for dinner and it was awesome! This is a great place to hang out with friends!

I want to give it a five, but I thought the food selection was a little small. Draught beer selection was good, never tried any of their liquor, but I hear their moonshine is good. Atmosphere is pretty nice, they had a live one man band going while we were there. He sounded really clean, and it didn’t make the bar overwhelmingly loud.
Even though I thought the menu selection was lacking, I thought the food I tried was pretty good. The tater tots were nice and crispy, and my bf really liked his burger. My French dip sandwich was nice and tasty.
Overall, I know they haven’t been around too long, but I hope they keep going.

My wife and I went to Dukes for the first time, and will NEVER go anywhere else. Their scratch kitchen is phenomminal. You feel like you are sitting at your own kitchen table. The food is fabulous, and I think a little under priced for the quality. There is nowhere around where you can get the quality for the price anywhere! Have a SPEACIAL request? They will make it, if they have the ingredients, NO PROBLEM. Definently our choose of restaurants. The owners Jamie and Justin can always be found with a smile.

This place rocks we had a party of 50 and we were well taken care of on a Super Bowl Sunday we will be back great food and service I wish I had more stars!!!

Nice friendly staff. It was dead on a NFL Sunday afternoon. I wish them well. Beer was cold.

A group of us came here the other night after work to watch the Cardinals game.
The food was just okay and surprisely, they only had one server trying to cover over 15 tables and sixty plus patrons. At one point we considered ordering from the bar, since it took over fifteen minutes to get our drinks.
The major attraction of Duke’s is their numerous HDTVs on virtually every conceivable wall and open space. They also have a pool table and a skittle type bowling machine to play.
We might be back, but not on a Thursday night. Expect to pay $ 30+ for one of their $ 9.95 food items and two 32 oz beers. They also have a Unilocal 50% Off appetizer Checkin deal at the moment. See photo.
A-​Okay, but could be better.

What an awesome neighborhood bar! The owners are so nice and friendly! The bar has plenty to drink and the food is good too! My favorite is the spicy edamame! They typically have a special infused liquor on tap– apple pie was to die for!!!
They have a patio area, large screen tcs, suffering board and they try to host a sip and paint session once a month.
I don’t live super close, but my friends do and they are always there! Also an added benefit is that they are near the AirWorx jumping place for kids. so you don’t have to wait for your teenager outside playing on your phone… just go to Duke’s!

Love this place. Food is amazing; try the Sriracha wings! Staff is friendly, shuffleboard, pool table, Golden Tee, good selection of beers on tap. Great atmosphere, Justin remembered my name and what I wanted to drink after my first visit.

The food stands out here. Interesting items such as the juicy lucy and capriese grilled cheese sandwich. As well as being of good quality.

5 stars all the way. The first time I was her, the owner Jamie served us. She was so great and attentive! I returned today with my boyfriend and met Amy, the other owner. She was fantastic! So sweet! My mimosas were perfect and the atmosphere was too. I have to say that I would have returned here sooner if not for a bad review that I read some time ago. Amy told me about the review and how the person had a vendetta and outright lied with his post and image that he took from Google images. What a shame. Who does that? How mean and wrong! Amy and Jamie are awesome!!! This place is great!!! I will be back! :))))

Can’t rave enough about the food here! My favs right now are their charbroiled bbq wings, the mac & cheese topped with bacon and finally the French Dip… Mmm!!! If you’re not hungry, then grab a cold brew served in a mason jar or try some of their homemade moonshine. Either way, you won’t be disappointed.

Never fails to satisfy! Ordered the nachos which are awesome in their own rite but ordered with tots instead chips… Amazeballs!

This was my first visit here. I arrived before they opened but they let me in and I had some lunch. Fish and Chips was the Friday special. The batter was a little different tasting to me, but still good. The Cole slaw as well. Waitress friendly and price reasonable. For a neighborhood bar not bad at all… It’s close and the food is good what else good one ask for. I will be back to try out more items on the menu.

Nothing going on here on a Friday night. No mix drink menu, they just made up one, which was ok.
Turn off: dirty restroom and two of the three employees working, we’re drinking and mingling with customers. Regulars I guess, because we didn’t get much attention.

With a family of 9, we had lots of meals on the table. Everything that we got tonight was fantastic! I especially enjoyed the French Dip sub. My wife had the fish and chips and my kids got burgers, salads, and even a few choices from the kid’s menu. We were super pleased with the quality of the food and the excellence in service. I highly recommend Dukes to anyone looking for a nicer, upscale bar and grill.

I really wanted to like Duke’s Tavern. It’s right around the corner from our house and I try to support local business as much as possible. However, there needs to be a few improvements before I would consider coming back.
Price wise, they are competitive with other restaurant/​bars in the area. However, their food leaves a lot to be desired. I ordered the chicken tenders, something I always do when I go to a new restaurant. I figure, if you mess up something as simple as chicken tenders, how can I trust the rest of the food? While everything was made fresh, my plate came out with three extremely small pieces of chicken. Like… Super small. To the extent that I would have expected twice as much at another restaurant. Taste wise it was okay, but nothing to really write home about. My fiancé had the jalapeño cream cheese stuffed burger which he thought was ok. Our dining companions both had the Reuben which they thought was ok, although the onion rings seemed to be really greasy and overly breaded.
Service was good, hence the three stars. The décor is a little weird. It’s almost like Duke’s is going through some sort of an identity crisis. The patio looked really nice and if they added some TVs out there, it would be awesome.
I’m glad we tried Duke’s but as of right now if we were looking for a bar we would probably just go to Zipp’s.

Can I give 3.5 stars?
Newly opened bar/​grill. The burgers are good, the atmosphere is ok, drink prices are good. It seems like it needs a personality or identity. Will be back.
