Gentle Ben’s Brewing Company

Gentle Ben’s has been at Main Gate Square since 1971, directly across from the University of Arizona. Its campus location is especially visible on game days, when alumni, students and families gather for Wildcats matchups. The venue says it airs every Arizona football and basketball game, college football on Saturdays and NFL on Sundays. Sections can be reserved for major games, and sound may be available depending on the matchup.

The kitchen ranges from burgers, tacos and wings to weekend brunch: chilaquiles, breakfast burritos, Benedicts and French toast. The website also highlights local craft beer, cocktails and weekday happy hour. Recent reviews for this address mention the open-air patio, staff and dishes such as burgers and nachos; the experience changes with game-day crowds and time of day.

The restaurant validates free parking at Tyndall Garage after 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and all weekend, subject to its validation terms. It posts hours and notes that they change on game days and during university winter or summer breaks. The site links Instagram and allows reservations and online orders. For a major rivalry, book ahead and confirm which screen will have sound.
