This was my 1st time to Squatter's Craft Beers dow...

This was my 1st time to Squatter's Craft Beers downtown SLC. My hotel recommended it as well as many reviewers; thanks Stella!

I was impressed by their beer selections and thoroughly enjoyed their 50 cents, 3-ounce samplers. While sipping away, I noticed many reviewers had positive comments about the burgers and garlic fries and my stomach was growling.

Since I was starving and the picture of the chili looked good, and I know it would be served quickly, I ordered a cup. I like my chili meaty, served hot, with a light spicy kick and this chili met that criteria. It was very tasty. Since I was drinking carbs, I ordered the blue cheese burger medium-rare, minus the bun, and added mushrooms. It was cooked correctly and had a nice fresh flavor, and the bacon had a nice hickory flavor to it. The garlic fries were tasty too, and weren't loaded with garlic, rather a nice light amount so my breathe didn't bowl people over. Dessert, oh no... I had to try the bread pudding after a few "amazing" comments. I could feel my jeans tightening on my mid-section! OK, the bread pudding was incredible. Their was plenty of bourbon sauce which I spooned up and poured on top of the bread. They added walnuts and powered sugar on top, that was a nice addition and not overdone.

Lastly, Jessica was my bartender and did a fantastic job. She welcomed my presence and always smiled. She also answered my many questions about the various beers and what made up their flavors; and never left me hanging, thanks Jess!

I give Squatter's Craft Beers 5-Stars for being a quality beer producer, with quality food, a clean environment, and friendly staff. I can easily see this place being a great hangout for locals and was very welcoming to visitors. I highly suggest you give it a try!
