Hitching Post Pizza Pub (Apache Junction, Arizona, U.S.A.)

 Hitching Post Pizza Pub, 2341 N Apache Trail, Apache Junction, Arizona, U.S.A.   www.hitchingpostpizzapub.com  Doesn't look like much from the outside, has a patio area in front with papas grass like umbrellas to protect you from the sun.  Inside, there is a small curved sit up bar that seats 10. It is a small neat little place and a stage for a band.  Very much a western theme inside this pub.  One dollar bills, signed and posted all over the walls.  There are 8 different types of beer on tap.  Several locals were sitting at the bar, and one couple was selling their home made pickles.  I didn't buy any but a guy at the bar bout a couple of jars.  Time for lunch and I had the rattle snake, which is apparently locally caught and mixed with their own  spices.  The bartender "Suzie" said she doesn't like rattle snake as it is too chewy but many others do. I had it any way, and yes it is a bit chewy, I thought that it tasted a lot like....rattle snake! They have pizza in their name and lots of pizza on the menu, but I didn't try any. I will leave that up to the next person. Out back is a large patio area with a 16 person sit up bar.  Great spot if you love sitting in the sun.  Check out their t-shirts to see what their other specialty is. Suzie was a good bartender/waitress, always polite and quick serving.
