Brad’s Place

My daughter and I are on vacation visiting from California. We stumbled upon this place on accident while trying to find a place for a quick bite. This place is roomy and very clean. The girl who took our order was very nice. We order a slice of pizza and a drink. The slice was huge and full off sauce and cheese. They serve it with a pizza slicer which I thought was a neat touch. The ranch salad dressing was awesome. Over all experience here was great.

Racist bitch bartender! I was just there with my 25 year old son and the trailer trash bartender called my son a fag! The bitch should be fired! Don’t go in this red neck bar! Stay away. ⁴⁄₁₆ @ 3pm. You know who you are! I hope your not a mother shame on you! Right! Shows your level of maturity! Your place should be shut down! Now the owner is sending me harassing texts, omg! Shout out to Ahwatukee Moms, what would you do? I am getting stalked because I stood up for my son, damn bullies, no one talks to by baby like that! Sick people!

What a wonderful place to hang out everybody knows your name the bar staff is very friendly the food is amazing and as much Sports as you can take on any given day what more could you ask for

So fucking good! Service was awesome and our server was cool! Definitely coming back here again!

First and the LAST time I will go to Brads Place.
Our Über driver just dropped us off at Brads to enjoy a night of Karaōke. We had 3 couples with us and wanted to have a great night. Went to the bar to order drinks and within 30 seconds the bartender Sarah DENIED service to our girls.
She told us that our girls were way to intoxicated because my wife was stumbling. My wife has a handicap and always walks with a limp and I am absolutely APPALLED to think she was mistaken for being drunk. This was our very first stop of the night and no one even started to drink yet! We then went over to CACTUS JACKS next door and spent well over $ 300 on food and drinks between the 4 couples and had a great safe night of fun. Look around Sarah next time before you judge a person. You might just learn something!

Great wings and very attentive staff (jake)

Brad’s place has become my families’ place of relaxation. We always come for game night and their food is really good. I had the chicken wings, my mom had the chicken, and my dad the burger. It’s not easy to match my high standards for chicken wings, but they surpassed my expectations. Definitely an awesome local bar!

Went to see a buddy play there. The patio (which is within 2 feet of the doorway) was loaded with smokers so we asked the waitress to close the door … which she did. Then the owner went and opened it letting all the smoke pour into the restaurant/​bar. We again asked the waitress to close the door … which she did. Brad the owner, went an opened it again … apparently he could care less what his customers’ want. It was so bad we left stinking of smoke. Well one person tells another person who tells another person and … way to go Brad!

We liked this place. It’s a «everybody-​knows-​everybody» bar. Service was great, got to watch the Diamondbacks game. Cold beer. Wings were not good enough to get me to return. Okay but not going on any lists. I had a good time listening to the guys next to me call some old friend on speakerphone, totally tanked and trying to explain who they were. Free entertainment.

Always a cold Guinness on hand! Friendly staff, good Midwest menu. Packers, Bears, vikings fans are all welcome!

This place is okay… I wasn’t impressed and won’t be back since Ahwatukee is full of sports bars. Tables weren’t clean, asked the waitress what was good here since it was our first time and she said what do you mean? Miller light not on draft only bottles. Food was below average. Cole slaw was sour.

My fiancé’ wanted to try something new. So we opted to come to brad’s which is near our home. Long story short, that same night we got food poisoning. We had to go to the ER and evrything. Since this event occurred, well will not be returning. The service was decent, a lot of swearing occurred by the servers and bartender which I believe to be unprfessional. At the bar, I watch the bartender just dip the cups in cold water and place the cups on the shelves for reusing (this was mid-​way through meal… of course I stopped eatting) If I could give them a half of a star I would.

This place really is just a hole for the local drunks to fall into. I have given it three tries but each time I leave thinking what a dump! It looks like it was decorated by a 12 year old, the food is terrible and the clientele is annoying. Stay away at all cost!

Sucks. Really wish I had the opportunity to eat here. Walked in waited 10minutes standing. Proceeded sat myself. Grabbed my own menus. No one walked up to me asked if I needed help or to order anything. Continued to wait. Walked up to the bar told bartender it would of been great to have a server. Left menus at the bar and went on with my life.
Keep in mind. I could of walked in, put my order in myself. Than walk in the back grab it and eat it probably before getting noticed…
Sucks went to Applebee’s instead. –_–

We have recently found Brad’s to be our new neighborhood favorite. Having eaten several items from the menu — nothing has been a disappointment. Hard to beat something as classic as a Club Sandwich– Brad’s does not disappoint.
The different evening events brings in good customers. However, some of the live music /​mono-​tone performers could use a bit of work. I will no longer be anywhere NEAR when Karaōke is taking place. The DJ /​Host blasts the volume up so high that nobody can even attempt to carry on any sort of conversation (s). The alcohol-​induced «singers» take their two minute stardom to a whole new level of loudness that I never knew existed. Karaōke does not need to «rock the house». It SHOULD be both enjoyable AND tolerable without going home with the start of a migraine.

The BEST bar food in town! My favorite is their turkey sandwich. Along with the great food, every bartender that has had the misfortune of serving my friends and I drinks have provided us with fun conversation. Whether we are there to wind down from a long day at work, or there to get a little more wild, we ALWAYS have a good time. Brad’s Place takes care of us! :)

Terrible service, food, and environment! The waitress was very open about swearing and wasn’t that great with manners either. Also the food was OK, but I ordered a ceasar salad for $ 6 and got a small salad on a big plate and a grilled chicken breast sliced. Plus to top it all off, the place smelled like smoke because they let customers smoke on the patio and the inside just smells terrible with the mixture of greasy fish and cigarette smoke. Would recommend any other restaurant over this one. But if you can look past it, that’s fine by me.

They don’t have pitchers of beer but they have really big draft on tap!
Friday fish fry is actually really good. Canadian white fish fried to perfection with really good crunchy french fries. The coleslaw is sweet, runny, mayonnaise-​y. Not my kind of coleslaw.
Local neighborhood bar where you expect to hear everyone to shout «Norm!» when the door opens because it seems like everyone is a regular. Older crowd so none of that youthful shenanigans.
A great place to watch a game.

It’s an ok sports bar. The placement of some of the tv’s is bizarre. Beer prices are fair, and they have a pretty average bloody mary if you show up early for football games. Don’t think I’ll go back. There’s better options in the area.

Although the service is second to none! The waitresses and bartender,(Mr love), totally kick ass! The food,… well lets just say they could use a serious upgrade. Small portions for the price. Not exactly what you think you’d get. If you just want to relax and have a beer, watch a game. This is it! Just dont come for the food…

Great neighborhood place! Local crowd, small town feel. Get the steak sliders with fries. Their on kings Hawaiian rolls and are yum. And the beer is cheap and they keep it coming. Not a bad place. Try it sometime if you are in the neighborhood.

I kid you not when I say the food is delicious, the service is the best I’ve experienced. It’s a very welcoming place I would call a second home. 5 stars hands down in my book.

Awesome service, awesome food! The place was packed out and we sat down and got service right away. Drinks and food out fast, and it was delicious. Highly recommend to anyone in the area. I will be back

I’ve never been a sports bar guy. Well… let me stop and rephrase that. I’ve never found myself frequenting sports bars until I moved to Phoenix. When I moved here, I found that meeting up with new and old friends at sports bars can actually be fun. The key is finding the right sports bars, and Brad’s Place fits that bill.
So what, to me, is the «right» kind of sports bar? A place where you can go and enjoy some drinks while watching an athletic competition. There are enough tv’s to satisfy most, if not all of the patrons, and the service is friendly. Hopefully there’s food, Good food is a bonus.
If I can get all of that without having to deal with the following then I’m a happy camper:
1. Rowdy/​Drunk college kids
2. Rowdy/​Drunk older dude (possibly shirtless with a painted face) who thinks he’s a college kid or
3. Rowdy/​Drunk, defensive D-​bags who act as though the end result of a sports competition determines whether or not their steroid dealer is going to stop taking their call and Ed Hardy/​TapOut/​Affliction will continue to produce merch.
Yeah, so basically what I’m saying is that I’m not looking for trouble with anyone, a fight or jail time to result from a trip to a sports bar.
Like I said, on my visit, Brad’s Place was the good kind. We sat near the bar and for the most part had a variety of football games to watch on the span of tv’s. They had happy hour Sunday morning as well. Can’t beat that!
It’s a decent sized place with a patio out front if you feel like sitting outside. On my visit, it wasn’t crowded at all. That was great.
I ordered the breaded pork loin sandwich for lunch and it was surprisingly very good. It was cooked perfectly so that it was still tender. The breading was crispy, but not over cooked or greasy. Same with the accompanying fries. I would absolutely order it again.
If you’re looking for the «good» kind of sports bar, Brads Place is the place for you. If you’re a person that falls into one of the «bad» sports bar categories I mentioned above… Please stay away from here… and get help.

I will start with a thought that popped up in my head about Brad’s Place. Its a statement that I usually put at the end to summarize my review… So I will start with the end: Brad’s is placed ever-​so slightly higher on my personal sports bar totem pole simply because they have an AMAZING fish fry. They are, however just average, with nothing to really make note of on the menu they have.
By the way, my usage of «Fish Fry» within this review is being considered as an exemplary example of the usage of the word «Fish Fry»…I digress.
Brad’s place isn’t in my neck of the woods anymore. Because of this, it will be difficult to reason why to come back here, since it offers the same amenities other bars around town offer. The only dish I have tried from their location is the Walleye Fish Fry they offer on Fridays. It’s fresher and tastier than other fish fry options out there. Its hard to get a quality fish fry, let alone one in Arizona, so trying their option really made my day. However, the rest of the place is pretty average, hence the average rating. The rest of the food options don’t jump off the page, nor do the drink options, etc. Its a great area location to go for some drinks and to watch a football game or two, but it isn’t a must-​go for me. I have other options in my area that I’d opt for before Brads… but if you are in Ahwatukee, this is a good spot to watch your weekend sports.
