    BACON JAM BURGER
    Sheikera P.

    I want to thank the amazing staff at this establishment. I traveled with a group of 28 high school students from Miami to eat here on a Sunday night. During the day of the visit I called and I spoke to one of the managers I believe her name was Sarah and she was super nice and helpful. Once we arrive. She let us know that she had a room for us and two of her staff who were going to be attending to us during our visit. Service was great. The food was phenomenal. I had their wings and burger. Both were so tasty. At first, I was a bit skeptical because some of the reviews on here weren't the best but I'm so glad I didn't allow those reviews to turn me away. Thank you to the staff for the warm greeting and to the cooks for the great food. I recommend giving this place a visit.

    Back to Kickback's.. this is the original location in Greensboro on S Battleground. They have been consistent over the years. Today we arrived and were seated promptly at the bar. The server was friendly and had good follow up. I got the lunch Wings and Fries. I liked the fries. They had a real potatos with skin texture. My friend got the Firecracker shrimp. It was not too loud and we could have a conversation. They have many TVs with sports related channels. I like this location.

    BACON CHEESE FRIES

    We went to watch the Carolina-Duke game so it was super crowded. Our server did an amazing job still being attentive even though the energy in the room was extreme. I got the loaded cheese fries which are always good, great ranch too! My husband ordered grilled wings & they were tiny but tasty. My friend ordered a healthier option with grilled chicken & broccoli and really enjoyed it too!

    I've had a taste for buffalo shrimp salad for lunch and KB was close by my afternoon appointment. They used to have the buffalo version but was more like the bang bang shrimp, which is a little more mayonnaise-y for my preference. The shrimp were cooked well though and the salad was fresh. Thanks for the good service. They have other daily specials like the $7.99 burger that you should definitely try if you're in the area.

    Super place to eat, have some drinks and watch all the games. With probably over 25 tv's I'm sure your game will be on. I had the honey siracha and Inca from the fall menu and they were so good! Very crispy from a light breading and not too hot at all. I don't usually do spicy, but these were easy to handle and amazing. Even with the place packed for a Duke UNC game, our server Kiki was on point. It's a pretty loud place l, given how large and open it is, and with all of the TV's but if you want a little quieter space, ask for the room on the left when you come in. It was full but nowhere near as loud as the open part of the restaurant. They have everything from wings to steaks and ribs. They have salads for those wanting a more healthy option. Highly recommend!

    So this is my first time visiting this location. Wanted to try something new. I ordered the dry rub wings with ranch dressing. They do not offer carrots/celery with their wings so I got a side of broccoli. I was surprised at the look because the skin was slightly burnt, but I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt and say it was the seasoning. Honestly my broccoli and beer was the best. There was special on pints of draft beer, $4. If I ever go back I probably won't get the wings, but am willing to try another dish on the menu.

    GARDEN SIDE SALAD

    We were greeted right away and taken to our table as we arrived. I really like the long big booths.Our waitress was super friendly. She stopped by a couple of times. I like that every seat has a good eye view of the TVs around the restaurant. The food was brought out by another waitress and came timely. I ordered a salad and it didn't come with my wings. I had to request it again. It was brought out promptly. The wings were grilled well, but they were a little underwhelming. The flavor was good, but they were a little tiny. The salad was very good. My daughter liked her chicken tenders. She was disappointed that one arrived and was lying in the honey mustard sauce she didn't ask for. So she refused to eat it. Overall, we will definitely return. This is a great space for larger groups.

    So i know it's probably weird to go to kick back jack and not get wings but I LOVE their salad. I have gotten this each time I've gone. This is the fresh berry salad which is Grilled chicken breast served over mixed greens with candied roasted pecans, fresh blueberries, mandarin oranges, feta cheese, strawberries and Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette. Personally I love anything with Feta and candied pecans when it comes to a salad. The staff has always been friendly, the vibes super chill and plenty of seating. It's a great place to watch games or just "kick back"

    We paid and left! Ridiculous as we were there to enjoy the games and food.

    We came in and were offered doubles when ordering our drinks. We had a table of 4 people and in the midst of dinner after our second drink, we were cut off by our waitress. We were informed that we could order and she was sorry but she had to notify her manager if more than 4 drinks were ordered. We were a table of 45-67 year old people out to dinner and were insulted as if a manager would have to give us permission for an additional drink. This should be posted if this is your policy. We will never spend another dime at Kick Back Jacks!!

    I enjoyed my experience at Kickback Jack's on Battleground Ave. Although I was picking up a takeout order, it was my first time visiting this location. I usually order through Uber Eats. Upon entering, the ambiance was fun and inviting, with a sports/game vibe. There are televisions almost everywhere you look, which is fantastic during any sports season! There is a large bar, ample seating, and a separate room for groups. The food is good, at least what I have tried so far. My favorite is the fish and chips. I didnt wait too long for my order, and when I had an issue with one of the plates, they went above and beyond to make it right. I will return to dine in and catch a football game soon.

    Sevice was super fast and friendly. We ordered grilled wings, ceaser salad and drinks. Sweet Thai Grilled wings 6/10 the wings didn't have any texture of crispyness. The sweet Thai flavor was good. Ceaser Salad was a decent size for the price. The Mango Strawberry Bucket was good but wasn't strong at all. Needed more alcohol. Bucket was full of ice.

    Our waitress was Lauren who was so pleasant and helpful. Service was outstanding. The food was delicious. They gave us plenty and of course we went home with 2 to go boxes for later . Thumbs up to the chef tasty fish with so much flavor on everything. No complaints here

The drinks from the bartender were great, but the service experience could have been better. The attitude and overall energy felt a little off. It seemed like there was a lot going on, and the way we were serviced was affected by that. The service was very straight-faced, and a few items we requested were forgotten. I understand they were getting closer to closing and focused on cleaning up, but we had to go out of our way--almost waving or being extra noticeable--to get their attention. Also, when we asked about the specials listed on the flyer, we were told there were no specials, which was disappointing and felt like false advertising. The food was good, although I do wish it was served a little hotter. Overall, it was an okay experience. The music was great, and the atmosphere had a nice vibe.

That's the way it was for us and Taproom, a long time Greensboro pub on Battleground Avenue. The last time we stopped by was pre-pandemic. Prior to Covid we had been somewhat regulars, visiting every couple of months. As we walked in, it was as if we had entered a time machine. Nothing aesthetically had changed. That's a good thing because Taproom exuded the comfortable dark wood intimate setting that it is always enjoyed. We wanted a little bar food and a couple of adult beverages. At the suggestion of the bartender, we split a Caesar salad as well as a Black and Bleu black flatbread. The Caesar salad is a classic and was very satisfying. Can't say it is special, but it is simply delicious. The flatbread was a lot of fun. It comes with olive oil, caramelized, onion, crumbled bleu cheese, mozzarella, and balsamic glaze. We added blackened fillet tips as our protein. My only complaint is I should've ordered two. The flatbread is incredibly satisfying and the beef tips were savory, tender, and flavorful. I went old-school on the drink. I had a 20 ounce Guinness, while my wife had a mule. Both were spot on and worked really well with the food we had. Everything was very affordable as well. Taproom is loud and feels neighborly. I reviewed it nine years ago and I'm changing nothing. I highly recommend a visit if you're looking for drinks and pub food in a classic environment.

On this weekday during happy hour, we had a bad experience unfortunately. Our server was amazing though! Giving her props for her friendly demeanor and great service. Drinks were also cold and refreshing. Where it turned sour: our Chef's Special appetizer plate. The mozzarella sticks were hollow. Not just thin, but completely hollow with no cheese, just an outer shell. The "beef" empanadas had no beef inside. Again, mainly hollow with only a little cheese inside. Overcooked and almost impossible to chew. They were also out of some pickled items that were supposed to be on the plate, and they substituted some old strawberries, which definitely did not complement anything on this plate. We were here for a full meal, but we stopped here and did not order our main courses. ***MOST IMPORTANTLY*** Some employees were engaging in activities inside the establishment, which are not conducive to a restaurant in any capacity. A call will be made to management and/or the owner(s). We're highly hopeful this is a one-off experience and these issues will be rectified going forward. We love this place. We've had amazing food and evenings out with friends and family here. We want to be back, and I would love to update this review in the near future.

The inside is small but there's a nice outdoor seating area too. This really is one of my favorite places to get food in the area BUT the only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because anytime I've been there remotely close to closing, they definitely let you know & make you feel rushed. I'm not one to go to restaurants last minute when they're closing because I know how that can make it difficult for employees, but being somewhere 45 minutes before they close shouldn't warrant getting rushed. I've been there before just to have a few cocktails at the bar about 45 min before closing & had the same experience. I still really love this place & will keep going (but probably not within an hour or so of closing lol)
