Just a few blocks from the main downtown area. Multiple rooms, lively and funkily decorated, inside, large, casual and comfortable outdoor seating, drinking and eating area, with a separate bar for outside customers. Friendly and professional staff. Seemingly easy street parking in the area.

Casual and fun spot...I enjoyed the spicy shrimp tacos and an IPA and I was happy to have visited..quality in house beers created here, all we tried seemed fresh and tasty...plus they do offer cans to go, always a plus......many cool places for beer and food in this town, this is one of em...worth checking out

Apparently, I'm in the minority on my assessment of this spot. The space, the theme and the service are all great, but the selection and quality are lacking in my opinion. All 5 beers I sampled were average or below.

My wife and I visited Mother Road a few days ago while spending some time in Flagstaff. They had about 10 beers of their own on tap, plus a couple guest beers. I had a flight and the Tower Station IPA was a real standout, though the brown ale (and its coffee variant) were very well executed. The taproom is a cool industrial space with the brewing equipment right out on the floor. There’s also a big patio and a generally convivial atmosphere. Service up at the bar was fast and friendly; they are a great modern place and I think my favorite stop in Flagstaff.

Cool little industrial building a few blocks from the center of town. Entry is through the patio area which has about a dozen picnic tables. Lively last afternoon dog-friendly crowd. Taproom has U-shaped bar and a few more table. They sell single 16oz cans from their walk-in cooler. As I was on a hit-and-run mission I never checked the tap list... Friendly, efficient bartenders made the in-and-out less than 5 minutes. Hope to stop back there when I have more time, the place looked interesting.

The best place in Flagstaff for beer. Good people, good atmosphere, and Tower Station and Lost Highway are essential Flagstaff beers. Besides, you can get Pizzicletta pizza which is amazing.

The highlight of this place is the outdoor patio. It was a beautiful late March night and the vibe was superb. Lots of people on a Friday night and inside was cramped so we were happy to find a picnic table outside. You’re able to order the full menu from Pizzicleta, which changes everything, because the pizza spot next door is way too small. We had three divine pizzas and their homemade gelato. I had a pint of the New England IPA called Helton, and it was pretty good. Paired well with the cheese board and pizza. They also have canned wine which is pretty awesome. Especially bc it’s one of my favorite Pinot Noir from Underwood. Of all the breweries in Flagstaff, this seems to be the best combination of everything you want in a brewpub.

Stopped in here tonight (12 Sep) on my Late Summer 2017 Road Trip. Tried a couple other places in Flagstaff first but they had a strict no canine policy. Sat outside where most of the seating seems to be. Six Mother Road beers on tap (kolsch, session IPA, pale ale (though described as a session IPA as well...?) two other IPAs, black IPA) and three guests, Modern Times, Wanderlust, The Shop Beer. Ordered pizza from
Pizzicletta. Beers must be ordered at the bar inside. 10/16/20 oz pours are $4/5/6 across the board; 4 oz samples are $2. At happy hr all pours are $4. 16 oz four packs available to go for $11.

Nice vibes here, a great place to visit with my puppy! Very friendly atmosphere, greater service, just wish there was more space! I'd also love to see a full draft list from Mother Road in the future. Although their guest drafts are very tasty! A couple appearances from Lumberyard and The Shop Beer Co. when I visited.

My wife and I stopped in early afternoon on a Thursday in October. Located in an older section of Flagstaff. It was not very busy until a tour group showed up. Ordered a Tower Station from the bar inside the brewhouse and took it outside to the beer garden. Enjoyed the cool fall weather and the beer very much. Very laid back vibe. Highly recommended.

I had no plans to go here during my three day stay in Flagstaff but having tried their flagship Tower Station IPA the night before I figured visiting the brewery would be pretty good. It was.

The brewery, only a few blocks from my hotel, is dog friendly. Big thumbs up for me anytime we can bring Lulu someplace. Had a couple of their newer beers which I'll add eventually and they had a number of quality offerings, always a plus. The vibe and the service were really good. One of the staff even gave Lulu a special treat, sealed the deal for me. I would certainly return, maybe as soon as tomorrow.

Pretty chill place in the old area of town just south of the railroad. Scrubby patio area. Dog friendly. Free pretzels for the palate scrub. I like that. Service was good. Barkeep tried to tell me that it's better that she puts the beers in order of what they think I should try. I had to gently insist to put them in the order that I had them on their profile sheet. (I was ordering for 2 people with different taste preferences-Plus I think I know enough about what order I would try them.) She seemed mildly put off by my breach of protocol. Beers ranged from interesting, Sour Station, to quite good, Gold Road Kolsch and Tower Station IPA.

Great vibe, they also partner with the pizza restaurant next door to provide tableside service. Good beer, pretty cheap, growler fills. Really enjoyed it.

Visited every brewery in Flagstaff and this was by far the best. Great patio vibe with live music and lots of people interacting with each other over beer. Excellent quality with my favorite beers I had in Flagstaff. Some of the best service at any place like this; an employee carried over chairs for us without us even asking when looking for a seat on the patio. He also gave us some free Mother Road decals. Selection of great beers, not a single one disappointed. I was a stranger passing through Flagstaff but really felt at home here.

I had a quick night in Flagstaff so a friend and I stopped into this and two other local breweries. This was by far the most friendly and homey. Huge patio which is perfect for Flags weather. Great job guys keep it up!!
