Squatters Pub is a bar and restaurant with multiple locations in the U.S. state of Utah.[1] Locations include Downtown Salt Lake City, Salt Lake International Airport, and Park City.[2] The original location in Salt Lake City opened in 1989.[3][4]

The business was eventually acquired by Fireman Capital Partners and integrated into the CANarchy brand alongside several other notable regional craft brewers.[5] In 2022 CANarchy was purchased for $330 million by Monster Beverage Corporation.[6] As part of the deal, the brewpub locations in Utah were brought back under local control, and now operate under the brand name, Salt Lake Brewing Company.[7] The eight locations continue to pour beer bearing the Squatters and Wasatch names.
