  Amazing deals! Incredible selection of craft beers on tap & wines by the glass. Wine Wed means $5 wines PLUS a generous cheese plate per person with first glass.
  
  Tell James what your tend to like & he will set you up. The ambiance of this corner of Whole Foods is so good that you will forget you are in a grocery store (especially after a couple of James' generous glasses). 3 flat screens play sports, & you can browse and buy LOTS of different ready-made foods in the food court for nosing with your drinks.

  It does seem a bit strange to be drinking in the back corner of a supermarket, but nonetheless it was an enjoyable experience. The Watering Hole is a bar inside the Whole Foods Market in Chandler.  I came for a beer event, Pitcher of Nectar Distributing had the owner and head brewer from Ass Kisser Ales on hand and they were hosting a sample tasting of their more popular beers.  
  
  Yeah, the place did seem a little overwhelming because of the crowd, but I thought the staff handled it very well and were quick on their feet.  It took me less than 5 minute to get a drink because I went to the bar and ordered it, I didn't sit on my ass and wait for service.  I had a chance to talk to the bartender a bit on this Friday night, he was friendly and seemed to know what he was talking about when it came to craft beer. He was really enjoying the event I believe.
  
  I had never been in this store prior to this event, but I feel motivated to go back for a closer look....at the market and at the rest of the beer list at the bar.

  The watering hole is a simply the bar area in Whole Foods. They do a great job of selling craft beer and always have something tasty on tap.  Also a nice selection of wines. Best time to go there is when they do not have events as the staff generally consists of two people who simply are overwhelmed.  They did a poor job in planning this place or staffing it as it is horrible when it is crowded.  Can take close to 30 minutes to get a beer.  Plenty of food options in the store. There is also something odd about drinking in a grocery store.
