About

Grand Canyon Brewing + Distillery sits in a timber-clad building in downtown Williams, and it pulls double duty as both a working brewery and a distillery, with a gift shop up front and a patio out back. With a 4.0 rating from over 1,200 Google reviews, it's one of the more consistently well-reviewed stops on the Route 66 strip.

Food and drink

The menu runs pub-standard — burgers, fries, pizza, calzones — with reviewers singling out the Indian fry bread taco and a meat lovers calzone described as crunchy outside, soft and flavorful inside. Beyond the beer, the distillery side has its own following: reviewers who've toured dozens of distilleries nationwide rank the cocktail flights and blue corn bourbon among the best they've had, and the tasting menu includes flights of both aged spirits and mixed cocktails.

Good to know

Hours: 11:00 AM – 9:00 PM daily
Price range: $$
Vibe: mountain-cabin decor with a working fireplace, TVs for game days, and a dog-friendly interior

Service gets mixed notes on busy shifts, but the food, house beer and spirits, and easygoing atmosphere keep people coming back — a solid stop for a meal or a flight while passing through Williams.

I’m not a beer drinker, but my hubby is, so we always stop at breweries. I noticed this place offered several sour beers so decided to try some of them. HOLY COW were they absolutely delicious. I’m truly shocked how great the flavors were. I tried four and each were so good. Plus the food was amazing too. Best meal we’ve had in the week we’ve been in the area. My husband got wings & fries, swore they are the best he’s ever tasted. That’s huge, he orders wings everywhere we go in various states, but these were the absolute best! I got a couple chicken tacos (it was taco Tuesday special) they were so good & I also got their fried bread with caramel. I hate we live so far away because this would be our go to place!! Great staff, food & drinks. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

These shrimp tacos were absolutely delicious, with perfectly cooked shrimp, warm tortillas, and a creamy sauce. The salsa tasted authentically homemade, bright and zesty with just the right kick. Paired with a cold alcohol-free beer, it was a refreshing combo that really let the taco flavors shine.

Made a trip up to Williams,Arizona. We did the Grand Canyon coaster. Walked downtown, then we hit up this place. The onion rings came out a little under cooked. The wings which were the honey hot came out with honey over the wings and a side of hot sauce. Usually the sauces are combined and poured over wings. Wings were good. We also got the 4 beer sampler. Very refreshing. It was a pleasant day visiting Williams.

Ordered a pizza after looking at so many tables having them and they looked good. Unfortunately I don’t eat pork so I asked for the Supreme pizza with substituting it for ground beef. It was HORRIBLE. They took old burnt burgers and put it on top. They were so bland and so hard to eat. Omg, they should be glad I was just hungry and ate what I could, had to pack the rest. Even asked the waiter if it was burgers cut into pieces and he also said yes. They also give you cups in the beginning for you to grab your own water (free) or soda ($3.99ea). I wouldn’t recommend coming here because there are so many other restaurants I passed while walking the strip, and for some reason I chose to go out of way to go there.

When is a charcuterie not a charcuterie? When it's just some sliced cold hilshire farms type sausage and a small handful of thin sliced pepperoni from a bag with some cheese and other fixins! Everything else ok. $21 calzone worth it cause of huge size , tasty crispy crust and good plentiful ingredients. Atmosphere and servers were fine.
