Editorial Review for Cotton Bottom Inn – by Bob King
The Scene
This is no ordinary beer joint. The ubiquitous Bugs Bunny image--on faded signs, in neon lights and as stuffed toy rabbits tucked above the bar--tells you whose cotton bottom gave this longtime oasis its name. But that's the only thing stuffy about this popular watering hole, where everyone seems like a regular. Feel free to join in on a game of pool or toss some darts.
The Food
Best known for the garlic burger, the Cotton Bottom also serves cheese dogs, Malibu chicken and grilled ham and cheese, all accompanied with salty chips and savory pickles--perfect for the Coors and Wasatch on tap. Tomatoes, shredded lettuce and onions balance the half-pound garlic burger, all housed in a large wedge of sourdough. The grilled ham and cheese is a hefty creation, with sharp flavors from good ham.

The Cotton Bottom makes a mean burger, but I personally don't think it's worth it when you have the slow service and poor attitude of the wait-staff working against you. It is a small pub, relatively dingy and slightly dirty. I also disagree with the review given on this website as the Cotton Bottom staff does not make everyone feel "like a regular", and I wouldn't call the noise of loud wait-staff & kitchen, forgotten customers, and the occasional belligerent drinker a happy "buzz".
Pros: The burgers
Cons: Smoke-filled room, poor customer service

We took a group of 16 to the cotton bottom for my 21st birthday (despite having many people tell me that was a bad choice because of the horrible service) because my husband loves their garlic burgers. We were surprised how many people were there on a week night @ 7 pm (mostly older people), but it ended up working out just fine & our service was wonderful (loved our server)! They even let us bring in our own cake as long as we cleaned up after ourselves. Great burgers, great beer. The only thing you may want to know before going is that they serve BEER..that's it. So if you are wanting to go to a bar & drink martinis, this is not your place. But if you want a delicious burger (they have some other food too, but why bother!) & a pitcher of beer, the Cotton Bottom is a great place to go!
Pros: Outdoor seating, garlic burger
Cons: beer only bar
