New summer lunch special at Thunder Canyon Brewstillery features options for days

To cater to the downtown lunch crowd, Thunder Canyon has rolled out a creative and flexible menu


If there’s a part of the restaurant business that tends to be on the more difficult side – at least from what we hear – it’s building and sustaining a busy lunch. (Ideally, a profitable one, too.)

Fresh on the heels of a major relaunch, Thunder Canyon Brewstillery is no stranger to lunch. Just prior to the rebrand, the restaurant maintained a loyal lunch crowd.

To reiterate how serious they are about providing a delicious and affordable lunch, with a host of options, Thunder Canyon has rolled out a new “Summer Lunch Special” menu. The menu allows guests to choose lunch-sized portions of any two items (there are 11 total) with a soda or iced tea. And when they say any two items, they mean it. You could choose a lunch-sized pastrami sandwich and a lunch-sized Thunder Canyon burger for $10 on the same plate. Or two different kinds of burgers. Or a burger and a salad. You get the picture.
