Paxton's Taproom

First time in town, decided to stop at Paxton's & it did NOT disappoint. Great beer selection, beautiful venue with plenty of seating & parking. Bar staff (Wes) was super awesome & really made it feel like Home. I would definitely be there all the time if I lived locally. Thanks for the great local beers, conversation and some tips for must see places around Santa Fe!

The people here were quite friendly.I waited a good ten minutes without anyone that worked there anywhere in sight . The two guys at the bar had to go in back And get the barmaid.But from there it was all good. Great selection of local beers. She said she was trying to get some locals wines in stock too.They had the doors open and the cold wind was whipping so when she saw me sitting there in my coat and still cold she immediately closed them.When I left the locals were coming in, with their dogs, it was quaint, clean and fun

Comfortable, welcoming, laid back atmosphere. Wide beer selection and snacks. Within walking distance to restaurant options.

Got a comment from whoever that didn't like my review about there food. Stating it's a tap room not a restaurant!!! Maybe they should t serve food if there not a restaurant. I wouldn't eat here if I was starving. Beer was ok but why have a fancy place with ok beer and why not take the time and actually cook the food instead of microwaved junk. Wast of time and money for me.

We love Paxtons. This has become our Wednesday spot. The staff Nick and Pam are always friendly and very knowledgeable about the brew on tap. I like to shake it up a bit and the staff is always great at making recommendations. Place is always clean and inviting, but it's the staff that keeps us coming back.

So far during our stay in Santa Fe, this has been the only place that my wife and I have returned to, which for us (since none of you personally know us!) says a lot. They have a good selection of beers from different breweries, so you'll have many more choices than, say, Santa Fe Brewing Company's hangout spot. All of the staff people here are very friendly and helpful, which helps make the atmosphere welcoming. I'll knock off a half star, only because they need to have some type of choices for nibbles that are made there. The only choices are to buy a bag of potato chips, or order Italian food from the neighbor/partner restaurant Il Vicino. During our visits we weren't in the mood for pizza, calzones, paninis, etc, so after one beer we were inclined to move on to someplace else that had food.A) If we lived around here and B) if they had in-house nibbles, the staff would get to know us by first name, because we'd be "frequent flyers"!

They have recently changed the food options and it is very bad. Don't go here if you're hungry.

cool spot. tons of potential. great service! three ciders on tap too! i hope they fancy it up a bit! some plants outside, a wisteria or trumpetvine, and some fairy lights would help negate the harsh lines and road noise. but *definitely* gonna be a great place to meet friends this summer!

Great meal. Handled a party of 7 with no problem. Everyone enjoyed their food. Service was great!

Beer is great. Atmosphere is decent. No people here except to watch the soccer game and the bartender says we all have to be out by 9 am sharp because corporate has a strict policy.
