Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers

We like this local spot. They have great happy hour selection as well. Excellent burger and fries. Great selection of beer and pretzel bread.

Burgers are very good, servers are friendly, but would not recommend if you are in a hurry over a working lunch hour.

I’m not much of a cold beer guy but I do enjoy a great cheeseburger and they’re getting harder and harder to find. Ok, a little easier now that I’ve found this gem (and it’s close to work).
Four of us guys from the office on the day before Christmas Eve decided we needed a hearty lunch and headed North East from the office. We originally settled on a quasi-​fast food place but one of the guys suggested CB & CB in the same shopping center, game on!
These guys hang their hats on killer burgers, terrific Mac & Cheese, over 150 beers and some of the best tots this side of Napolean Dynamite. I love it when a burger lives up to it’s name and there are a few on the menu worth trying if your Momma didn’t raise a sissy.
The Ring of Fire Burger. Spicy onion ring, the requiste jalapenos, pepper jack, spicy mayo, and buffalo sauce. ½ lb of hand formed beef on a light and airy bun-​brioche I think but I’m not a baker, just an eater. I paid the extra $ 1 for the sweet potato tots and they were incredible (and generous-​I couldn’t eat them all and I usually clean my plate, ok, maybe lick it too.) One of my buddies ordered the regular tots and as much as I enjoyed my sweet potato tots, I actually had tot envy over his. They were absolutely perfectly cooked, little nuggets of Idaho perfection.
I’ll definitely be back, the menu is for real, the service was good, and it’s close to work. North Scottsdale, you’re in luck-​now all I need is for one in the NW Valley.

Good food. Apps (fire chips especially) and the burgers are amazing. Coke hungry or plan to take second dinner home with you. We finished up with S’mores at the table. Make your own S’mores!!!

I did not have high expectations of this place. The big winner was the food. They have a creative selection burgers that are huge and well made. Cooked to order. Fries and tots were also delicious.
The décor is typical sports bar. Lots of TVs to watch the games. Service was fair, at best. Beer selection was OK. A bit more that Bud & Coors. Not an expansive selection, but decent.

Good neighborhood sports bar. Array of cheeseburgers and lots of TV’s. Nice indoor/​outdoor bar with outside sitting area. This is much smaller than the Old Town location. Bartenders always seem attentive.
My only con on this place is not a lot of beers on tap. Wish they had a little more selection. But generally people can find something that fits their tastes.

Good food, service unexceptional. Several servers/​hosts standing around talking and looking confused.

Relaxed, come-​as-​you-​are atmosphere, great burgers, and huge beer list. This place is a local favorite. They’re doing so well new ones keep poppin’ up in the Valley (the newest location is on Shea and 116^th St.)
We got the mozzarella sticks because they’re great and they’re made in the traditional manner, which is what I want when I eat mozzarella sticks (nothin overly fancy or deconstructed). For those that read my reviews, I
am gf but go off the wagon on occasion bc a) I’m human and b) sometimes a wheat product is just worth the headache and internal damage. These mozzarella sticks are worth it to me!
Tonight I got the ring of fire burger– it was cooked perfectly and was incredibly flavorful. My son’s salad with chicken was fresh. I think they make their own potato chips here and they’re wonderful. Crunchy, slightly thick– yum!
The service can be a little slow at times but they are always friendly and helpful. The patio is my favorite as the inside makes me feel a little claustrophobic unless I’m at the bar.
All around great American comfort food in our neighborhood — can’t get better than that!

1. Pro– I love the tater tot nachos. If you need some carbs, look no further.
2. Pro– Burgers are big and messy just like they should be.
3. Con– I’ve eaten here about 20 times. They have gotten my order wrong 5 times. Also, burgers are consistently cooked less than I wanted. If I said «medium» it came rare. If I said «medium well» it came «medium». I’d hate to see what «rare» looks like.

Not as bad as the location in old town, but still not worth it.
Pretty simple order took over half an hour to be brought to table. Had the prime dip with chips. Meat was good, role was good, cheese was plastic tasting.
Seasoning always seems to be way off here: had the chips that were pretty much oil and thin potato… absolutely no salt on it. However, au jus for sandwich was beyond salty, almost to the point of inedible.
If you were forced to eat here like I was, check in to get a 5 dollar coupon. Will make it a little easier to deal with.

The food was absolutely AMAZING! However, once the lunch rush came in, the service was a bit slow. I chose to make my own burger. This allowed me to add everything I wanted, while leaving out the things I didn’t. The restaurant has a good amount of outside seating that is cooled by misters.
I plan to go back and enjoy a juicy burger again!

Great burgers, friendly service and a big selection of beer. Chicago dogs. What else is there?

Cold Beers & Hairy Cheeseburgers.. I like the one in old town scottsdale but the restaurant in north scottsdale is horrible. Ive been to the NS location 3 times and each experience topped the last. I was here earlier today (3^rd experience) and found a pubic hair in my sliders, DISGUSTING!!! My server went to get the manager an get this… haha wow… this is what he told me «This is one of the mishaps of eating out». WTF!!! How bout I call the health inspectors. I assumed part of being a manager is making sur your kitchen is clean. Yeah you may not be able to catch everything but what your comment was unacceptable.
Tips…new management, better and more servers so we dont have to wait 30 min for service and clean your freaking tables. Ugh! Never Again.

How simple can it be to review a place called Cold Beer and Cheeseburgers?
Well, pretty easy because they do a great job with cold beer and cheeseburgers! LOL
We’ve been here a few times and have enjoy the buzz and food. Unlike some of the brew type places in the valley trying to serve pub grub, this place figured out that serving interesting good tasting food is what makes us keep coming back. Wow, how simple can that be?
The pretzels are warm and tasty. The shredded Buffalo Chicken dip (photo) has some kick and hits the stop. The Sirlon Sliders are really very, very good. They may not be as good as Gordon Ramsey’s BurGR place, but we’ll keep coming back here again and again for the Sliders.
What’s that’s saying about giving people what they want… simple right?
Happy Hour runs until 7 pm and there’s a monthly beer special. At the moment it’s Dos Equis. They also have a $ 5.00 Off Unilocal Checkin deal (photo), so don’t forget to checkin. Expect to pay $ 20+ each depending how thirsty your group is. LOL
Enjoy!

This place was great! We went here the other day for dinner and had a really good experience. The place itself is smaller than I thought it would be but has a very nice outside area, there is plenty of bar access and the inside has many a TV to watch the game on.
A lot of other people seem to dock them for service but we were served perfectly. They seemed to be around whenever we needed them while not hawking over our shoulders the whole time. Everything was spot on as ordered and nothing was forgotten.
The beer list is grand as it should be if you have cold beers in the name. I tried the Maui brewed coconut porter, it was fantastic.
The food was good as well. I only gave 4 stars instead of 5 since it wasn’t the freshest ingredients but it’s fried and greasy so it doesn’t really need to be. It all tasted very well. We had the buffalo tot chos and a couple burgers. Everything was hot and as advertised.

After seeing some of the reviews about the service, I was a bit concerned that some friends were meeting there… But I figured we were all off that day, so what’s the difference.
SO, we had unbelievably good service! Our drinks were checked on often, without being obtrusive.
As for the burgers, not only was it $ 11 Wednesday for building your own burger, but they were REALLY good…
Beer looked cold, but 3 of 4 of us were not drinking at lunch! LOL!

I really wanted to give these guys a good review. I have been here twice, and both times they started the conversation with «our service will be slow tonight.» Why? Get more staff…
Last night I was charged $ 10.00 for two bottled beers. When I commented that’s a lot, the bartender lowered it to $ 8.00. I’m not buying a car, I just want a far price on a beer. I did enjoy the burgers both times.

Second time here and both visits were the same. Great food, good service, relaxed atmosphere. I had the juicy Lucy and onion rings this last visit and they were excellent.
Third and fourth visit service sucked but food was still very good. Service can be hit or miss but food is usually on point.

We have come here off/​on for the past several months — mostly because it is semi close to us. The first experience was positive and we felt we had found a good option for our family. Things have rarely been good since that first time. We get our orders to go and it usually has issues. The biggest issue being that the food is burnt. Sweet potato tots — black around the edges. Hot dogs — ends are charcoal black. Wings — so burnt they taste like I’m licking a piece of charcoal. They also never provide the kids drink (which is included in the meal) and we have to ask for it which gets them pretty upset. Another issue is — the order is usually wrong. Order onion rings? Well, you get fries (there is a $ 2 up charge to get onion rings). Order no tomatoes? Well, surprise! One time we even got someone else’s order mixed in with ours. I think this place gets too busy for its own good.
So why not 1 star? Because when the food is good — it’s pretty good. We keep coming back hoping that we will hit the take out lottery and have everything work out. Why 2 stars? Because it rarely works out.

Great burgers and super original styles. Very chill neighborhood joint. Perfect for watching a game, hang with friends, or a quick bite with the family. The service is also a big plus. Big smiles and on top of their game.
