The food was extremely forgettable. I can't believe we paid so much for such a bland and dull meal. Little or no redeeming factor anywhere to be found. The cook needs to learn something...anything.....

Excellent pizza! Lots of local brews on tap. I love the pinballs they have as well!

Rooftop and Draft Station are the SAME restruant! Just 2 separate dining rooms.

Draft Station is a neat little bar that serves up the entire menu of the nearby Rooftop Pizzeria along with their drink offerings. In fact, I came here in search of pizza and only found Draft Station because the folks at Rooftop Pizzeria informed me their space was closed for a private event.I wish I could speak more to the drinks here, but the pizza was the sole reason I came. On a Thursday afternoon when the vibe was a little quieter, the pizza was fantastic. I ordered a margarita with additional mushrooms ($2 per extra topping), and found it stupendous. The crust was crispy on the bottom with just an extra chew on the inside. I'm not typically a fan of sauce-less pies, but the fresh tomatoes, garlic spread, and fresh mozzarella were tasty enough that I didn't even notice there was no tomato sauce until I was halfway into my second slice.I liked it so much that I brought my husband back the next night. Things were much livelier on a Friday, with live music and more people. Service never faltered for a second - the folks here are warm, friendly, and efficient. Unfortunately, we found that the pizza was markedly different the second time around. There was a thicker ring of unadorned crust around the perimeter, along with a thicker and mushier crust in general. The garlic spread was also spread much more liberally than the last time, which overpowered the rest of the toppings and rendering our post-prandial breath inappropriate for most dates.Still, we loved the casual feel of the place and it might've just been a really busy night. There's a good number of tables and bar seats inside, but there are also some tables and chairs outside the restaurant in the arcade space. Just plop your number placard atop one of those tables so that the folks from Rooftop Pizzeria knew where to deliver the pie (we did this and found it to be a far quieter place to sit and eat than in the full dining room).Note: The Draft Station is on the second floor of what's called the 'Santa Fe Palace Arcade'. True, there are a few pinball machines and arcade games in the corner of an arcade store, but from street level it looks far more like a long hallway of stores selling goods and jewelry.

This place is a delight. The food is awesome, the drinks are exquisite, and the location is to die for. We loved sitting out on the deck while we enjoyed our lunch. The owner seems like a great guy and he seems to genuinely enjoys hanging out with his patrons. 10/10 would recommend!

We had a relaxing lunch here sitting on the deck. The mushroom pizza is to die for!! Our server was attentive and friendly. They offered a good selection of beer.

The pizza dough was visibly undercooked, but otherwise ok. The beer was fresh at least!
Roy Harkins
I would recommend this place if you want great pizza. The crust is the best that I have had in a very long time. The ceaser salad was also good.
Scott Dobson
Great spot to grab a drink and people watch over the plaza. The highlight though was our bartender Adam who was an absolute pleasure to chat with and ensured our stop off for a couple beers was a pleasant experience. The pinarita was awesome and the beer selection more than adequate for all beer lovers.
At the Draft Station last night, and just have to say Adam is the most personable & professional bartender in Santa Fe ! Also, the Rooftop pizza is not to be missed. What a great night in Santa Fe!

The best seat in the house is on the balcony of The Draft Station. Watching the activity in the Santa Fe Plaza can last all afternoon or evening. Offering several taps, mixed drinks and wine, The Draft Station has something for everyone. Hungry? Order a delicious pizza or salad from their partner Rooftop Pizza. One of the best aspects of The Draft Station is the staff. Adam provides friendly and attentive service....always helpful and always willing to chat. We keep our fingers crossed that he's working whenever we stop by. The manager Lisa always takes time to make sure customers are getting the best service possible. You can't go wrong with The Draft Station. Can't wait to get back!

August 10 Beers were good. Great location and nice views. Service wasn't good. Waited over 2 hours for a pizza. Was asked, oh What are you waiting for then another 45 min before food came. We left after it was closing up and the waiters said what are you doing here still. If I ever went back I'd have a beer and then go eat somewhere else.

The view, the beer and the drinks are good but the service, food and management are terrible. Zero assistance from any staff or management my entire lunch. Pizza came out burnt and incorrect after waiting 45 min to receive it. I ruffed it out since I was on lunch and in hurry. This place use to be great. What happened.
