A great place for a darn-tootin’ good time. Stay for the rodeo
Excellent place and atmosphere to enjoy…
Good service and great food. I enjoyed my visit.
It’s a nice big Dive Bar lots of different people from all walks of life plenty of things to do there the food is bar food it’s decent but the staff is superb they are all on point they work very well together and they treat you very well that’s why I keep going back
Onion rings are really good. The staff is frendly and on top of it.
Great food, not pet friendly!
Service was catch and miss food and menus have shrank came on an event night hit so full of young kids it just was not my kind of place
Well …. I don’t know how to say this.. cause I am just blown away. As some of you know I have been frequenting the Road Runner Bar and Grill in New River Az lately. I really have enjoyed the food and atmosphere, along with bringing my dog Cloey. But… tonight just blew my mind! As I arrived at the Road Runner the place was packed and the parking lot was full. I new they had parking for bikes in the back and parked my car in a very inconspicuous out of the way place back by the bikes where I new it would not interfere with anything or one. Had a very nice time for 5-6 hrs. Then out of the blue the owner or so he said he was come up and starts complaining about the car and asking who’s it was. I said right up front that it was mine and explained how it got there being the lot was full and that I did not realize it would be that much of a problem, apologized and said I would never do that again. He when on to say how disrespectful I was and that he owned a lot across the street where there was plenty of parking. Again I said I was sorry, thank you for letting me know about the parking because I was unaware of it and I really meant no disrespect. He then approached me in a threatening manner and insisted that I did mean to disrespect him and acted like he was going to physically harm me. I said really sir I meant no disrespect and I am sorry for the trouble. Again he insisted I did mean to disrespect him because I was on his property and became more threatening telling me he was going to slash my tires! Amazed, I just said look I’m not here to have any trouble I will leave and stay away. And he said well if that’s how you feel how about I just stick you now and finish it. I was like dude I will leave right now, as I stood up to leave I extended my hand and said I was sorry again. He refused to shake my hand and again threatened to stick not only me but my dog too who is very friendly with people, and made many many friends that night. So sad such a simple problem had to get so out of hand when I really liked the place. But I think the owner, if that’s who he really is, has a really bad drinking and or anger management problem. And know The legal war is on! If he thinks he has a right to treat a good loyal peaceful friendly customer that way. I think he can apologize to me in front of the police or I will spend big big bucks, making signs, banners, facebook ads, newspaper ads and picket right across the street from that place letting people know what happens when you park in the wrong place. I think he thinks he’s got more money than me. And that gives him the right to be an ass. So its on, I’ll keep you all posted. AND THATS MY RANT! SO ROAD RUNNER PATRONS BEWARE.. IF YOU PARK IN THE WRONG SPOT YOU MAY GET STUCK AT THE VERY LEAST GET YOUR TIRES LASHED!

I felt very good about how the recitals went! I was so proud of all my students for their performances! But mostly, it was a good feeling to see them all be successful in getting up to announce, play, and bow. I would like to thank North Phoenix Academy of Music for everything you do to make these recitals a success! You put in some long hours not only during recital weekend, but in all the weeks leading up to it in preparation. I can’t thank you enough for everything that you do to make this a positive experience for your Students and Teachers!! I really appreciate it and always enjoy recital days with you! So thanks again for everything! I LOVE TEACHING HERE and I LOVE MY STUDENTS!
It is not easy to find someone that wants you to learn and enjoy the process of your progress and learning. Nick Aldieri has the drive to have you learn and progress ! This is not easy to find. I say this from experience.
If you are looking for a great guitar teacher…..Nick is awesome! My son is inspired by him every class….He is very professional, patient, cool, and just a great musician. I can hear him play, while my son is on zoom class with him. 100% recommended!
Learning guitar from Nick has seriously been awesome. He immediately made it clear that theory and technique would both be taught in the context of songs that were fun to play, and that lessons would be structured around the genres that I wanted to play, as well as related genres that provide important and relevant context. Nick is super relatable and understanding, and teaches from a very constructive and motivating place. Lessons are paced to your skill level too, which has certainly not been the case with previous teachers. Besides the progress I’ve made in my playing, I’ve noticed a considerable positive change in how I view practice. Dude knows how to teach.

I could not be more happy with Rhapsody Music! As a working adult, they helped me find lesson slots that fitted my schedule. They also were able to move at my pace perfectly and didn’t hold me back. Shout-out to Nathan for being an excellent piano teacher – I recommend him to everyone now! They are super helpful and friendly here. I love what they are doing for the community here.
Great customer service and help every time I’m in!
Great place.
Super friendly and helpful. The staff and music teachers are awesome!
7. Mortensen Music Studio
Address: 40034 N Cross Timbers Ct, Anthem, AZ 85086 , New River , Arizona , United States
Mrs. Kristin’s class is fabulous. She is so engaging with our littles and is so great at building their confidence as they grow through her program. To see how my daughter is learning to hear notes, read music, and understand music terminology without even realizing she is learning has been such a pleasure. I am looking forward to watching her continued progress with Mrs. Kristin as her guide!
Our son has learned so much from Mrs. Kristin and her classes are amazing!! She is able to give such great support and guidance when needed. We are still blown away by how much he has learned and how much fun our son has in the classes. We can’t wait to continue to see our son grow in Mrs. Kristin’s classes.
So much fun! We look forward to class each week and our little one is learning so much! She’s patient and kind and makes learning feel like play time! Highly recommend checking her out for your own family!

9. New River Off Road ATV Rentals Phoenix
Address: 46202 N Black Canyon Hwy, New River, AZ 85087 , New River , Arizona , United States
All things equal with regard to equipment, New River has a great location to ride with a great mix of beautiful scenery and challenging trails. In machine tablets really help to stay on trail and give you peace of mind and help manage your time allotment. Staff were friendly, professional and accommodating.
Awesome adventure. My wife and I did the eight hour ride to Crown Point. First time I drove an ATV. Great staff, extremely helpful and did a great job of training us on how to use the Polaris.
Excellent adventure. Staff was great, terrain and views were great. Highly recommend.
Nice equipment, nice crew, will use them again. Noah was super helpful with these first timers.
Very friendly staff with almost new equipment. Easy access to the trails from their location. It would have been 5 stars, but the interior of the unit was dirty (lots of dirt, fired ammunition, empty water bottles) and the harness straps (think race car style) were very stiff and difficult to adjust. I presume most people don’t use the them and just buckle them to each other (how I found them).
However, the goggles were clean (you’ll need them) and the ice chest was full of cold water.
Also, I’m glad that they don’t put windshields on the units as they just make it hotter and dustier inside.
This is my second year renting from New River rentals and I’ll likely be back again next year!
This was supposed to be a short cut to avoid an accident. Really didn’t work and didn’t get to enjoy New River. Looks like there are lost of nice places
This place is not very friendly, keeps your money and can’t get back for 30 days according to their refund policy. They don’t know how to run their website and times are incorrect. They said they didn’t know how their website allowed us to book a 330 appt. Said I could still go and she can charge us late fees , she can cut into our time, or we can wait for the refund 30 days. This was based on their website mistake yet the customer is punished. Being that this is my only weekend off she ruined , she ruined our weekend. When I advised I would post a google review because she wasn’t very accommodating she told us not to show up. Horrible customer service this place deserves less than a 1 star. Businesses like this forget they are only open because of people like us or they wouldn’t exist. Horrible customer service. Stay away or they may ruin your vacation, weekend and you won’t have your funds for up to 30 days if they cancel. Don’t run the risk
Service and machine was great. Trails were terrible and like 3 hr on a bucking bronco. Nothing about the trails are worth what they charge. Save your money its not worth it.
Very disappointed!

15. Katrina’s Taco Shop
Address: 46135 N Black Canyon Hwy, New River, AZ 85087 , New River , Arizona , United States
Delicious spot with super friendly staff, will 100% come again!
Fresh tortillas, burritos wrapped tight. This is the real deal…authentic Mexican food and salsa with quality flavor just like you’d find in Mexico. No need for a huge menu when you’re doing it right…a must try.
Hot, fat, tasty, made fresh to order tacos. Bomb.. will definetly come here again!
Food trailer with picnic tables. The food is simple but excellent and very fresh. We have the shrimp and fish tacos and guacamole and everything was very tasty.
I had Carne Asada tacos they were decent but a bit overpriced for small street tacos. they did have a decent amount of meat in them though!
Definitely service with a smile, but unfortunately the tacos were super dry. They did come with plenty of meat, so that was good but I found myself having to overload it with salsa to moisten things up a bit.
Service was good beans taste like they’re from the can
Servico estaba bien pero los frijoles saben como si fueran de lata
The worst fast food restaurant and also bad customer service
16. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 4435 W Anthem Way, Anthem, AZ 85086 , New River , Arizona , United States
There coffee is really good and there big pretzel is awesome
Cleaning funding looking. Great coffeeas always at a reasonable price.
Just did coffee and this a cute place with a nice vibe.
Great but pricey.
Refreshing strawberry lemonade
Great coffee but poor Covid protocols. Several workers look sick or hungover as they make the coffees. No one wears a mask and keeps touching their face while they make the drinks.
Worst cappuccino ever. Tasted like regular coffee and the foam took up half the cup
I asked for a water, the guy at the counter tried to charge me for a cup. I brought my own cup of water and they kicked me out of the patio area for “outside drinks”
18. Brindley’s Music Center
Address: 836 N Arizona Ave, Chandler, AZ 85225 , New River , Arizona , United States
Great place for lessons. Love to wander around the store and check out all the beautiful instruments
Amazing service!
I’ve had Brinkley’s service my bass, two electric guitars and one acoustic guitar and every single time the work is affordable and fast.
Absolutely incredible place to get repairs or just get a tune up.
I built myself a bass guitar from scratch and had Bruce help me with the setup of the bridge and neck adjustments. Bruce and his son are very kind, and knowledgeable. They both go the extra mile to help you and if they don’t know the answer to a question, they’ll tell you, instead of making up an answer. They’re a family owned business and you can tell that they put a lot of effort into making their customers feel welcome. Do yourself a favor and skip over guitar center and come to Brinkley’s. You’ll be happy you did.
Good music store for those looking for something specific…not much to look at for those who want to look around or window shop (especially for drum equip). Other than that, it’s a good local music shop. They used to make their own brand of drumsticks, which were GREAT, but last time I went they said they no longer make them. Bummer!
It was very awesome service but milanos was cheaper books were 8.00 and care kits were10.00 and at brindleys it was almost 16.00 and for book it was 10
This place is cool. Ppl are nice. IN THE HOOD IM LIKE PRINCESS DIANNA!!!

Expensive and poor service. took my beautiful holton Bb trumpet their to have the 2nd valve slide replaced. it is a standard mass produced turmpet, ans WAS worth about $650. it was beautiful with a sparkeling finish. they lost my order and it took 3 weeks when I called them to inquire about it. i was told $40 to fix the slide (found out later that part only cost $15) and it would take a week. they chem washed it, wich i said to not do and it RUINED my trumpet. it looks like crap, their is 3 dents in my bell where their weren’t any before and after i called at the 3 week point it still took another 2 for them to get around to fixing it. in the end, they ruined my finish, put the wroung part on, and dented my trumpet multiple times. O AND they expected me to pay $85 for it all. they chem washed it because they forgot to write down the repair needed and assumed it was a was, and they charged me for their mistake. Good at smooth talking but anyone can seem like they know what their saying. they were horrabile and unless you want to over pay and have your instrument ruined, dont go here. o and my sisted paid $1000 for a flute which was “new”…the saudering from when it was returned to them from the last owner broke in about a week and they repaired it wroung 3 times before they got it right where it broke again 3 days later.
Called to inquire about an instrument. Owner laughed at my question and was extremely rude. He didn’t answer my questions, and refused to give any useful information.
I had heard so many good things about this place from other musicians, so my S/O and I decided to try it out. We needed our guitars set up, mine electric, hers acoustic. When we brought the guitars in, we were given a sort of turned up nose treatment when we revealed our guitars. Mine a Purple Paul Reed Smith Custom 24, and hers an older blue Ibanez acoustic. Granted our guitars weren’t the most expensive, but we both loved them dearly (Mine was an anniversary present from her, and hers was her first guitar ever). I explained to the gentleman behind the counter what was going on with my guitar (Dead fret on the high E, also needing a full set up, action lowered, set up with 10’s.). My S/O explained that hers needed a set up as well. We handed over our guitars, and left with confidence.
A few days later we picked our guitars up, and went home to check them out. It. Was. Terrible. They raised the action on my PRS so high that it was almost unplayable, and the gentleman who did the set up said that he did so to get rid of the aforementioned dead fret, even though I gave express permission to do whatever was necessary to solve the issue while keeping the action LOW. That could have meant a level, crown, polish, replacement etc. Anything to keep the action low. My girlfriends acoustic buzzed so terribly on every single fret on the top three strings after we took it in, she has resorted to buying a brand new acoustic, because this place left hers unplayable. Now most people might say ”well if they messed up, take it back and have them fix it” but believe me when I say that when we saw the condition of our instruments, I would NEVER trust them in the hands of this place again. I really wanted to like this place, but after the treatment we and our instruments received, we’ll go elsewhere. Please stay away for your own good.

Beautiful New Office spaces, entry an many places to quiet the mind if needed. Fish tanks are relaxing also. Great big kitchen area to enjoy your nutrition breaks.
The first thing I noticed after finding the building was the excellent safety and security for the employees. Although I had an interview, I was unable to enter the facility without proper access. Upon entering, I saw the beautiful interior design throughout both floors. Extensive thought and budgeting went towards ensuring that the employees felt comfortable and capable. There are multiple game and lounge rooms with access to entertainment and exercising, coffee kitchenettes and full kitchens. This place is amazing.
