We had such a great time at Desert Dogs! It is right in the heart of downtown Santa Fe and was easy walking distance from our Airbnb. It's upstairs but they do have an elevator if you need it! It's in a larger building and it seemed to always have something going on. When we went in we instantly knew we were in good hands with the fantastic staff. They have a menu with yummy bar eats (we are here twice), a nice beer board with some local brews, some premixed cocktails (I loved the lavender lemonade, Todd loved the Paloma), a full bar and great music playing. There's a little patio you can sit and watch the streets while you enjoy your beverage as well which is nice when it's not super windy. Shout outs to Mourad and Patrick who were working both times we stopped in! Thanks Gents, you made our trip extra memorable

Great times with great people! We were here for a wedding party for our friends! We had such a great time doing shotski's at the bar, chilling on the rooftop, and playing pool. Also, the bartenders were amazing and I had the best chicken wings I probably ever had! Definitely a divey bar with Midwest vibes. Loved it!

We stopped in Desert Dogs to enjoy a local beer or two and have some food. I sampled a few beers and decided to go with the Drunk Astronaut Hazy IPA. It was very smooth, nice and citrusy without having the nasty grapefruit pith undertones of some hazies. Not too sweet, not too fruity. Very nice. We talked extensively to the bartender and an off-shift worker about food, and they recommended the wings, which you don't even see offered in their on-line menu. We did an order of half sambal, half green chile Parmesan, and they were both excellent (the sambal were our favorite). Crispy, moist, and delicious. The vibe of the place is...let's say eclectic. Hints of hippie, hints of rock & roll, darker lighting. Inviting, a little intimate, but not fancy. If we are back in Santa Fe we would definitely stop by again!
