Thirsty’s Brew Pub & Grill Menu and Price List – 2025 Updated

I have been there, and Thirsty’s Brew Pub & Grill is one of those places that just hits all the right notes, so if you are ever in Hays, Kansas, you really must stop by. The atmosphere is friendly, relaxed, and brimming with positive energy as soon as you walk in. It is the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at home, whether you are having a casual lunch or dinner with friends.

Let’s now discuss the cuisine because, wow. I expected the food at Thirsty’s to be your average pub fare, but they are above and beyond. Their hamburgers? Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly stacked, these are some of the best I have ever had. To be honest, the BBQ Bacon Burger was excellent when I tried it. Do not worry if burgers are not your thing; they have a surprisingly inventive and fresh salad menu, and their steaks are prepared to your exact specifications something that not all grills can do.

I can not overlook the brews, of course. The staff at Thirsty’s is knowledgeable and offers an impressive selection of craft beers, many of which are local. The experience was greatly enhanced when they assisted me in selecting the ideal accompaniment for my meal.

The quality is always a plus, and the prices are incredibly fair. Make time for Thirsty’s whether you are a local who has not been yet or you are just visiting the area. It is an experience worth relishing, not just a meal.
