Stopped there on way home from skiing. Great service, delicious burger and wings. Great option instead of fast food and will definitely go there again! A+

This is a great place to drink like 20 beers and wolf down some average food. Better bring a designated driver and not mind parking around back.

Met the wife here for lunch because she works next door. Unfortunately we not return even as convenient as the locate is. Order a chicken sandwich and received a brisket sandwich. Sent it back and waited. The chicken sandwich arrived and the chicken filled about a third of the roll it was in. All bread ! Nothing was offered in return for the mistake. Water and soda were never refilled.

Great happy hour specials $ 2 beer and half off apps and on Wednesdays happy hour remains in effect until closing time, you can’t best that.

I’ve given this place more than one shot so me giving one star seems to be fair. Food is mediocre at best. Service is slow. Along with slow service the servers seem to not be aware of what’s on the menu so when you ask a question you don’t get a straight answer nor do they go and try to look for one either. Good Luck!

Went with a friend on a Wednesday night and was ecstatic to find that the appetizers were half price! We ordered the sampler, nachos, and fish tacos and it was a ton of food. Super delicious and well-prepared! I appreciated that it wasn’t crowded and our server Kayla was SUPER sweet and helpful. She was also quick and knew the menu well. Overall great experience! Definitely will return and recommend it to a friend.

Beer seemed cold enough. Like a low rent Friday’s. However it smells like Clifford the Big Red Dog crapped in the place, wow overwhelming stench. Maybe one of the patrons soiled their depends at happy hour trying to get the 2 for 1 drinks. If that smell is the food, you could get the trots from the smell. If you need a landscaper try the bar area.

I don’t know how good or bad the food was because I ended up leaving. We got seated quickly but were ignored by the wait staff for 15minutes.

My fiancé, my son and I just left this restaurant. The girl who seated us at our table was very friendly. She ended up serving us our drinks as our waitress was busy although the restaurant was empty. Our server seemed very distracted and uninterested. She proceeded to take our order without writing it down. We ordered nachos as an appetizer and never received them. I’m kind of glad we didn’t because our dinners were less than mediocre. It also took the waitress 3 trips to the kitchen and back to get our meal correct. My fiancé ordered the barbeque sampler and lost his appetite. My two year old son had the cheeseburger sliders which were way overdone. He took a bite and spit it out. I ordered the chicken Alfredo. It came out cold. The waitress did not seem to care that we barely touched our food. We left very disappointed.

I Visited here a couple times when it first opened and the food and drinks ordered were good. Most recent visit both our mixed drinks Ordered tasted off(barely drinkable) and our app and dinner were not good. The app tasted like the frozen grocery store boxed pre made stuff and just deep fried. We Spilt a dinner which was nothing I would go out of my way to eat again. It feels like the food quality as well as drinks are not what it used to be.

This restaurant is a much cheaper TGI Fridays and it hits the spot for hospitality. I really enjoyed the steak tips that server Emily provided, and she was very kind and made sure we were waited on the right way! The patio is also a nice tough for an outdoor restaurant scene as well, as I enjoyed a few drinks at the outdoor bar afterwards. If you like a nice American restaurant for a good price, with great service. This is the place.

I recently hosted my husband’s surprise birthday party at the Backyard Bar and Grille and it was exceptional! The restaurant manager, Kathy, was an absolute pleasure to work with. She made the process easy and enjoyable; from planning the menu to organizing other details – she was an awesome point person. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was fun. We used their outdoor patio, and even arranged for live music to come in. Everything went off without a hitch! The waitstaff was super friendly – helped me hang decorations and were very attentive to requests of myself and guests. The dry rub wings seemed to be the hot item that everyone was having seconds and thirds of. At the end of the evening, they packed up the extra food for us to take home. I highly recommend this venue for any catered event!

Don’t bother. When this place opened and was staffed properly it was a nice place to go. The last two times I have gone the service was slow and didn’t care. We walked out the last time because we figured 20 mins to wait for a tap beer was 19 minutes longer than any other bar in the area. Was hoping this would be a goto place for us, family and friends. We were wrong and when 6 tables on the patio don’t have food or drinks in front of them, it’s time to change the manager. Go find a place that earns your money.

I was excited when this place opened because the location is perfect for us. We’ve been there about half a dozen times and it has been very inconsistent. The staff is what I would call untrained and awkward. Service is slow and the hostess can be very unfriendly. If I had a word of advice for the owner of this place it would be, «Pay attention!» Your staff needs training and you need to get regular feedback from customers. I’ve had a couple of OK meals here, but a few others that were just awful. I like a lot of spice, but on one trip the spicy ranch dressing was so hot it was inedible. They would sell a lot more drinks if the servers actually checked in with diners once in a while. The floors are slippery — my son once took a big spill in the dining room. The food really is not the problem — it’s the front-of-house staff. I feel like an unwelcome guest when I step up to the host stand, every time.

Have been here a handful of times and can say it’s either really good or average or worse. Very small bar area but always seem to have good deals. I believe they have half-priced appetizers and like 2 $ bud lights during happy hour. As far as the food goes, it’s hit or miss. One pro about it is that you can get a decent meal and the prices are very low in my opinion.

The food was actually pretty good but the server we had was the worst I’ve ever seen. Stephen was by far the worst server I have ever seen and I waited tables for years. He only came to the table twice and once was to drop of the check. I can’t even say enough how much it sucked. He was far too busy flirting with a table of women than taking care of my parents and myself.

Met up with some old friends. Good little bar scene and for a Wednesday night, the bar was hopping. Was not totally thrilled with the tap beer offerings. Sam Adams seasonal along with Rebel. BBC, blue moon Guinness. Maybe something else, but wasn’t feeling a level of variety. Started with the BBC. Staff was super friendly and our waiter payed very good attention to our needs. Ordered the nachos with chili. Very good idea! They were not skimpy on the chili or cheese. Very good. Tried the Asian chicken wings. Not bad. So used to the spicy Asian wing sauce that everyone serves, so at first I was not that impressed, but it grew on me and I would order again. Over all, good little place for food and drink and I will return.

Happy Hour 3 – 6. Being from Mass that’s a big deal. We don’t have that anymore. Appetizers half price. Wine half price. I’m good right there. I don’t need anything else. I meet a friend here once a month as it’s half way for both of us. We eat apps, drink wine, and catch up. In the warmer weather we could sit outside on their deck. It’s not fancy here or fine food. It’s a bar so don’t expect fancy. But we’ve always had good service, a good time, and don’t spend a fortune. That’s why we keep coming back.

I have been here a couple of times before and have recommended it to my friends, but now I feel was is a mistake. There is better Barbecue in town(Country Diner). On this visit nothing was poor enough to elevate to the waitress, but nothing was done right either. We sat outside where the waitress covered the outside bar and also needs to walk around to the back of the building to bring food out. The brisket($ 18) was very small and had too much salt, taking away from the nice smoke flavor. The onion rings were over cooked(very dark brown vs golden) and the cole slaw while tasty was also runny. The Steak Bomb was on the sweet side(from the mix of the roll and the american cheese?) and severed on a roll that became gummy from the moisture of the meat and toppings. Like other reviewers, we found the Kettle Chips to be lacking. Not freshly made, with a soggy mouth feel(it’s been very humid in the area) and unevenly seasoned. While it seemed we could swap out sides, we were charged for it. We wont be back.

We were looking forward to trying out Backyard Barbeque. It recently lopened and is close to our home. Unfortunately, it was a big disappointment this evening. Our waitress clearly did not want to be working tonight. We were a bother to her. When she did take our order it took forever to come out. My daughter ordered a Portabella burger which came with a piece of hair on it. The waitress did promptly take it back but there was no «our apologies», and certainly no «we will take that off your bill». They did replace her sandwich but by then we were all done with our meals. My chicken sandwich was buried in barbeque sauce but it could not conceal the over cooked chicken. My husbands pulled pork sandwich was bland. While the décor is nice and it would be a convenient place to watch a game we won’t be going back anytime soon.
