Lumberyard- Hazy Angel (6.7%) Flagstaff, AZ
I went in with a group of friends. We all ordered something different and everything was amazing. The sandwitches were prefect and I dont think any of thoes beers could clash with the food even if we tried. Music was chill and staff was friendly.
Green Chile Stew
This stew takes me to Sangre de Cristo mountains of Northern New Mexico on a cold day. A must try if you like green chili, perfect amount of spice.
The Jive Turkey
Had this sandwich for dinnner on 11/4/20 and instantly discovered one of my favorite sandwiches of all time. Great combination of flavors made with the freshest of ingredients. Looking forward to enjoying this again soon.
The Acapulco Cheesesteak
! Dios mio! Like many menu items at TMI, this sandwich will take you by surprise. You expect a typical cheesesteak, maybe with a little flair. But the combination of the TMI signature buttery-toasty bread with gooey cheese, tender meat and just the right heat makes your mouth do a happy dance. Wash it down with one of their excellent cocktails or a craft beer, and you will be in foodie heaven.
TMI Cuban Torta
Not only was the food delicious, but the staff and atmosphere was great! We are new to the neighborhood, and we are glad we found a place that we can become regulars at.
Charli Tuna
I've just about had every sandwich on the menu here, and all are stellar. For nostalgia value I chose the Charli Tuna, and it morphed what I thought a tuna salad could be. My mom, in all her years of making this similar lunch delight, bless her soul, couldn't compete to save her life.
Green Chile Stew
Damn good. Im a green chile conessuier, not a good speller, and this was in my wheelhouse. Almost as good as mine. Thats a huge compliment.
Green Chile Stew
Such a great little neighborhood spot! The best Green Chile Stew for real!!
Anchor- Steam - Lager - (4.8%) San Francisco, CA
Light beer with a hint of raspberry. Refreshing beer on a summer day.
Veggie Wrap
Love all the flavors of this wrap! The black bean hummus paired with the sprouts is a home run. Not to mention the wrap they use is always fresh and soft.
Tuna Salad
Best tuna melt ever. I food is always delicious and the staff always gives the best service , atmosphere is always great. The music and the beer and other beverages are also great. I love this place.
TMI Cuban Torta
Love the torta. Top 3 of the sandwiches available here.
The North Beach
I am not a sandwich person. I do not like having sandwiches for dinner... BUT I ALWAYS FIND MYSELF CRAVING THIS DELICIOUS SAMMIE! So fresh and full of flavor! If you haven't tried this one yet, you totally should!
The Ruby
Awesome drink!!! Refreshing on a hot day!!! Come out and support this kick ass business!!!!
The Soup
The Tomato Soup is AMAZING! Such a full flavor you can taste the medley of tomatoes used in this soup. Even on a hot Phoenix day I would still order the Tomato Soup and very much enjoy it. It's like tasting the Italian countryside with the plethora of flavor and the freshness of ingredients used. Pairs well with a Wheat beer!
BLT
Such great service and amazing people in our new neighborhood #TheMainIngredient your friendly, clean and oh so cozy neighborhood Ale Hpuse. Love this place.
The Acapulco Cheesesteak

Chips & Salsa
Chips are so crunchy -delish salsa is spicier than expected. Super good all around Not sure why there is no guac
Anchor- Steam - Lager - (4.8%) San Francisco, CA
great place. Come and enjoy a beer
Courtney's Cobb
By far my favorite salad ever! It's good with balsamic vinaigrette as well!
The North Beach
I'm a picky eater so don't usually do a lot of sandwiches but this one is amazing! So good and service is great!
TMI Tacos
Quite tasty
The Acapulco Cheesesteak
Paired perfectly with the Modus Hoperandi. Excellent service with speedy delivery.
Veggie Wrap
It's an amazing wrap. Since transitioning into a semi vegetarian, this has been one of my staples. I sometimes add an ingredient, like pickles or jalapenos, and they are always accommodating - try it grilled like a burrito - even better!
The Jive Turkey
In the top 5 sandwiches I have had in the last 10 years. The turkey alone is just amazing. Pretty good portion too!
The Ruby
Delicious!!! Perfect patio weather cocktail!
Tuna Salad
LOVE the tuna salad! Make the drive from Tempe it's that good. And $2 off draft beer during a generously long happy hour is awesome!! Only $4!
The Acapulco Cheesesteak
There is a reason why this is the most popular item on the menu. It's amazing and you won't regret it... except for the fact that it will be hard to try anything else next time.
BLT
It's the best sandwich. Slightly spicy. Good hefty bacon, and the mayo actually adds a lot. Simple and perfect.
Artichoke Heaven
This was a gem of a find!! Everything from the Artichoke dip, meat and cheese board, mac n cheese and sandwich's were excellent. Yes, we ate a lot!!! Unique place with a lot of character. Excellent service too. A must go to for a date night.
Salty Hog
This drink is dangerous. I found myself on the patio at TMI, and ordered one: grey hound with bacon garnish? Yes please! I made friends with a dog at the next table, then ordered another and made friends with yet another dog... Then had to eat food... Delicious, refreshing, and guaranteed to help you make friends with other peoples' dogs (even if you don't share your bacon)!
Artichoke Heaven
Love this place! That artichoke dip is AMAZING!
The North Beach
So tasty! The pesto is incredible
Veggie Quesadilla
I'm a big fan of Quesadillas and this one is done right! I've had it with and without shrimp, both ways are great! It paired well with the Car Camper Hazy Pale Ale!
The Veg
The scrumptious harmony of flavors mingled with the intentional blend of bold ingredients create an unforgettable sandwich experience. Many restaurants don't give the priority of flavor to the vegetarian option, resulting in a lackluster combination of leftover ingredients from the main specialty dishes. However, in my experience this sandwich has set the new caliber of expectation for quality, not only for a vegetarian sandwich but sandwich fare as a whole! My compliments to the creative mind that artfully designed this dish.
TMI Cuban Torta
Cuban Torta is the best!
The Sheridan
this is a long time favorite. I order the Sheridan when I am really hungry for a hearty turkey sandwich with a bit of spicy flavor from the salami and the mustard. the field greens (make me feel less guilty about the salami) and provide a nice contrast. the bread is always yummy too !
Duke Margarita
It has a very classic taste of a margarita with just a slight hint of the strawberry, just enough to taste. The mescal is still prominent but not so much that it makes the drink too strong. Nice blend.
TMI Tacos
The shrimp tacos are devine! They are always fresh and deliciously delightful! I give them 👍👍and also ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! Try them, you wont be disappointed! Staff and outdoor seating are great!
Coronado Caprese
Delicious! Love this place for the drinks and food. It was hard to pick a favorite since I have been here many times and everything I have ordered (food and drinks) have been great. Also LOVE they are super pet friendly, this is the place I always go with all my friends that are pet lovers.
