Accepts cash and card, plenty of free street parking available. PLEASE NOTE this business is entirely separate from the ice cream, coffee, tattoo, etc. businesses located in the same area. That being said, Wayward is AWESOME. Hilda and Tyler have put their heart and soul into their bar, creating an awesome space for a great conversation over a drink. The options always vary with an ever-rotating beer selection (tap and bottle/can) and I would have to say that this is typically one of the nicer selections offered in the area, by far. Lots of fun events like open mic comedy and trivia come along with the territory, and fun attendees abound in all instances. Overall, this is a great place to go read a book with a beer in the afternoon, meet some friends, attend an event with homies, or just go get your buzz on. The regulars are happy to hold a convo if you can't find a friend! Also, dope patio seating is available and food trucks often partner up with Wayward on the weekends. Highly recommended!

I’ve been to Wayward a few times and enjoyed every visit. Stopped in yesterday for St. Patrick’s day - great selection of beers, the staff genuinely cares about their customers, and bearded bbq cooks up amazing food outside. Alex the bartender has been great every time - great customer service , ability to multi task , answer questions, and is knowledgeable. Had a Black and Tan and Guinness float made with novel ice cream yesterday. Definitely check them out, everyone I have taken here has enjoyed it. They also display local artists’ work throughout their building!

Relaxed atmosphere and good overall vibes. Nice selection of beers too and cute little shops around back. Also dog friendly which is a huge bonus!

Great spot! Dropped by randomly after a long flight and had a wonderful time. Highly recommend!

In town for a concert. Lucky to find this bar. Great beer selection!! The owner was fantastic - friendly, knowledgeable. Great vibe. Will return when I am back in Phoenix!

Always a great time here. The environment is chill, and the beer selection is always solid. Grand Ave pizza is across the road, Novel ice cream is next door.

What a cute little tap house - loved the patio, it was just perfect on a chilly December evening. Great selection, I had the sour which was excellent. Will definitely be back!

This place was really dead when I went in. Not much for a menu. Great place if you like beer. I donated some board games and had a glass of wine. Alex was super attentive and personable. Alex you rock!

Such unique beers, a cozy couch corner with board games and right next to my favorite tattoo shop. Makes for a lovely time ?

Great selection both, both cans and draft
