Fall in Flagstaff With Kids: Your 2026 Season Guide
Fall in Flagstaff means gold aspens, pumpkin patches, Oktoberfest, and a downtown Halloween trail. Here's how to plan the season with kids, from foliage drives to rainy-day backup plans.

Brewery/Pizza • Lunch, Dinner, Drinks • $$
A family-friendly taproom at 117 North Beaver Street that pairs its own craft beers with Pizzicletta's wood-fired pizza — lunch, dinner, and drinks under one roof. If the adults want a quieter spot later, there's a separate 21+ Beer Garden with elevated pub grub called Atmosphere Kitchen; with kids, stay in the original taproom. Outdoor seating and restrooms are on site, and it runs daily from noon to 10pm in the $$ range. It works from babies through tweens, but there's no kids menu and no high chairs, so you're splitting pizza and managing laps. The 21+ room is easy to wander into if you're not paying attention, and a noon open means this is a lunch-or-later stop, not a morning one.
Local tip
Double-check your map pin: DSB's Birch Street beer garden is 21+ even in the afternoon, so with kids you want the original Beaver Street taproom.
