I'm immediately greeted at the door by Abby or Hannah, with a warmly affectionate nickname that I honestly earned. They know what I drink and have a decent idea of what I'll be eating. Kat walks in and it's like family just arrived home. Everyone is great. Seriously. Shay and Megan are amazing people I'm just getting to know, and literally everyone they hire makes the place great. Why did I put so much into this review? Because you deserve to be in a welcoming and fun environment too. Oh and get the fking White Russian sandwich. Don't even look at the menu first. Go see the team at The Yard. They're killing it.

I went to The Yard on two (2) occasions. The first time, shortly after the restaurant opened, was…read moreabsolutely terrible. When I say terrible, I mean it could not have been any worse. My friends and I went during the NCAA Basketball Tournament, hoping to be able to watch all of the games at once. However, rather than having any of the basketball games on, they literally had a replay of an NFL game, a volleyball game, a TV that had timed out, and some kind of documentary on the other TV. When we asked our server if they could put the games on, we were told that they were unable to change the channels on the TV, as it was some kind of streaming service. Furthermore, we placed an order for drinks, and after sitting there for about fifteen minutes (15) minutes, got up and left after not seeing our waitress after that. If I were simply judging by this experience, I would have given The Yard negative stars if possible. However, my friends and I returned to The Yard to watch the NCAA Women's Basketball National Championship, and had a much better experience. It seemed that they were able to get the TV situation worked out, and we were actually able to get drinks this time. I know that this is the bare minimum for a sports bar, but they did show marked improvement from the first time that we went there. Our server, the bartender, and the hostess were all very nice, and I really liked the interesting sports regalia that was hanging on the walls. Overall, I'm going to give The Yard a generous three (3) stars, mainly considering the context in which my experiences took place. I hope that my first visit was simply a matter of needing to work the kinks out, and that future visits will be more in line with how my second visit went. I've yet to try their food, so I'll probably come back at least one more time, which'll serve as the tiebreaker as to whether The Yard is a worthwhile stop or not.

Beer choices are big domestic, big import with one "craft" tap. As a beer nerd, I'd like to see more craft. We popped in around 2pm on a Saturday. We were the only patrons at a table. The bar was occupied by six people. Amanda was our server. She could not have been more friendly and attentive. I had the fried flounder with the "side" salad. The salad was great. Everything was crisp and tasty. The dressing was a preportioned ramekin. The flounder was excellent. It was perfectly fried, crisp, and well seasoned with no excess grease. The wife had the bacon and egg burger and the side salad. The burger was juicy and tasty. By the time we left, there were about six tables seated. Looks like there are a lot of locals here and they seem to be very friendly people. The flounder pic below is an attempt to show it after I was two thirds through it. We will definitely be back.

I ordered the steak fries , because they are hand cut, but to be honest, I wasn't impressed. They were slightly undercooked and not crispy. They were dark, so I suspect they just need to change the oil to more accurately gauge the doneness of the fries. Another customer kept ordering this and it looked so pretty! I decided to try it and, honestly, I'm OBSESSED! It's not as sickening sweet as I expected. It's fruity, but sour, with a an aftertaste of gin. I would love to try this with Hendricks or Roku, I think it would level up the flavors. But this was made with tanqueray. Still, I HIGHLY recommend this unique cocktail. But you'll have to ask for it.
