Ambiance: it's what you would expect inside. A bunch of high top tables, TVs, and what you expect in a public house. It's clean, open, and has cute decor. Service: SO slow. When she was there, she was super sweet, the problem was she just wasn't ever there. Food, drinks, checks, it all took forever. Food: the food was all really good. My sister got the Cuban and sweet potatoes and they were both so delicious. I got the jalapeño popper burger and it was also pretty good. The wings were great, fried but not breaded which I loved, and my mother in law liked the tacos! I'd give them another shot and go back for the food! read more

My 79y/o dad and I went here on Sunday to enjoy a burger on the patio. We were greeted when we walked in and told to sit wherever we wanted. It was a beautiful sunny day. We patiently waited for 25 min and then left because no one came to take our order or offer us drinks; not even water. There were 2 servers and neither one came over to us. They delivered drinks and food to the tables around us but nothing to us. I made eye contact with the girl server several times thinking she would come over but she never did. I was debating going inside to say something but after 25min I felt the whole experience was tainted. It might not have been so bad if we at least had drinks but to sit at a table and be ignored was a bit much. I've been here before and feel the staff is 1/2 good 1/2 bad. This was my 2nd time here having crap service. Not sure it's worth going back... read more

Very good late night visit to The Backyard Public House on our last evening in Spokane. We were looking for somewhere within walking of the arena after the NCAA Women's BB Tourney. It was a perfect stop. They were dealing with some food shortages as they changed food distributors and some items were not available. No issue. Everyone adjusted and it was excellent. Our daughter had what was advertised as Spokane's Best Nachos...and they likely were...wow. The pork was plentiful and she loved it. My wife had the Caprese Sandwich with Arugula and it was perfect. I had the Broadway Club and it was also quite tasty. Arielle was so nice and explained quite well what items were not available. She was friendly and very engaging. Thank You Backyard as you were exactly what we were looking for. read more

You can go a lot of places to get a $15 burger, so when you go to a sit down restaurant you hope that at least the service makes the price worth it. That was not our experience at Backyard Public House. We got our waters for the table quickly, our initial drink order taken in a decent time. Drinks came a bit late, order for food taken a bit longer, and food was very slow, and our party didn't eat at the same time. The waiter never came back to fill drinks and didn't check back at all. We finished our food and sat for quite a while. We observed out waiter eye our table, but did not come by to check on us or bring a tab. When we did get our check, enough time had passed that we had stopped talking amongst ourselves and were aware of the passing time. Our visit was in the 90 minute time frame. The food was good, but no better or memorable than any other burger pub. Due to service and other factors like parking and location, I probably won't go out of my way to return. read more

5 stars from me! I visited The Backyard for Spokane's restaurant week with a close friend this week and we were so impressed. I highly recommend the crispy brussel sprouts and any burger on the menu. I got the mushroom bacon burger that came with the restaurant week bundle and my friend ordered the shiner burger. Our food came out in proper time with excellent portions for our both! The male bartender with long hair helped me select a few different beer options which I really appreciate because I often don't know what to order. The Backyard offers a warm and comfortable atmosphere with fun and friendly service. I don't go out often but this is a spot I will definitely come back to because of how welcome I felt at the bar. Thank you all again! read more

We used to LOVE Backyard! We came in a few months ago and had a pretty bad experience so we stopped going since they were going through a menu change and so on. We figured we'd give them time to figure it out. Today, we thought would be a great time to try it again and hopefully have improved service. We decided to go out for my friend's birthday. We came in around 4:30pm and only one other table was sat. There were 8 of us to start, later turning to 6. The service was slow at first but we were just ordering drinks so it was okay. After our first round though, the server didn't come back until one of us had to go to the bar and tell them we wanted to order food and more drinks. It took another 15-20 minutes for anyone to come get our food orders. Two orders were delivered right away. 15 minutes later, two more orders were delivered to the table. I waited another 20 minutes while my husband and everyone else finished their meals, a server never returned the entire time everyone ate. Eventually, one person went to the bar to close out his tab and it took 30 minutes to do so. While he waited, I also eventually went to the bar to complain that I never received my food and our entire table wanted to order more food and drinks and had been waiting at least 20 minutes. One girl apologized and said after these cocktails were made, she'd be right over. The other two girls weren't making drinks and were just doing dishes. After another 15 minutes, still no one came to get orders. We finally had enough!! I went back to the bar and told them never mind on my food. Then, we ALL had to get up and go to the bar to close out, because again, no one came to our table. Since we were initially a party over 6, they already included a tip which may be why they never gave us any service, they already knew they'd be getting a tip. I am beyond disappointed, I am mad, and I don't think I will ever return to Backyard (one of my all-time favorite places). I cannot believe this service, especially when they knew it was someone's birthday. I cannot believe they thought they deserved a tip at all! I ended up leaving and getting Jack in the Box instead! Total letdown! I don't think Backyard will ever be like it used to. Don't waste your money or your time! Update: I was just informed that after I left, they tried to charge the birthday girl for MY drinks that I already paid for. And I purchased one of her drinks too! I was told that they were also very rude to said birthday girl! I cannot believe this! read more

Came here (again) on a Tuesday night for trivia. Tonight they had a Lucky Charm drink and it was tasty. Service is typically very slow because of trivia so come prepared to be here a while. They also stopped serving food because they were backed up and didn't have enough people on the kitchen. This night was saved because our waitress comped everything for the wait and no food - so my drinks were free which was amazing. Happy customer here. read more

the staff was extremely rude and we were charged for a side that was supposed to come with the entree. When my friend mentioned it to the server, the server said she would come back when my friend was ready to speak to her in a calm manner. Neither one of us were upset at that point so we were perplexed. Then the server went and spoke with someone else about it and we got up and went to talk to that person too and when we showed them on the menu where it says that entrees come with a side unless otherwise noted, he said he could see how that could be confusing. It took us an hour to get so.eone to take our order. They said they needed to close the kitchen to change between brunch menu and the lunch/dinner menu. We waited an hour and finally asked a server if we could order and she took our order. The whole experience was horrible and I will never recommend this place to anyone. I will actually discourage people to go there. The food was average. I was told the noodles were spicey, but they were bland. Onion rings were cold. The patio was nice. read more

An extremely average experience. Based on what I'd heard, I was expecting much better. Don't get me wrong, there was nothing bad, just not great. Service was friendly and fairly attentive but as with most bars, if you're not a drinker, you pretty much get ignored. Food, too was okay but not exceptional. Undersized and over priced. Two meals (burgers) and one app with no alcohol was $60. As for the burgers themselves, you could almost taste the freezer in them. Best part of the night was the Courthouse Pretzels. While they were not overly pretzel-y, they were delicious and the beer cheese was like crack. I'd eat that on an old flip flop. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. EDIT: YIKES! My wife just told me it cost $2.50 to substitute her fries for a salad!! $2.50 extra?!?! For an average bagged salad (mixed greens) that had the same food cost as the fries?!? I just took away a star! read more

During these odd times it's good to come across some good food that is to go. That's exactly what we found with Backyard. We discovered their take and bake enchiladas and absolutely loved them. They were just spicy enough and generously filled. These also came with chips and salsa. The chips were also remarkably good with the seasoning they use. The salsa was good on both the chips and enchiladas. When I picked the order up the staff was super nice and quick about bringing the order out.

I ordered the Fig Sandwich and the Fancy Pants Sando because I could not decide between the two as they both sounded very unique in different ways. I called the place up and arranged to come pick the food up. The person on the phone was very thoughtful in keeping in mind at what time I would arrive so he could arrange for the sandwich to be toasted at the right time. I appreciate small details like that. When I arrived, I noticed there were several tables and a bar where you can essentially get brews and food. I noticed they had several beers on tap which I was very curious about, but unfortunately did not have time to sit down and eat at this establishment. The person at the bar was extremely friendly and made me feel very welcome. The two sandwiches came up to $40ish. I brought the sandwiches home and first tried a few bites of the Fancy Pants Sando. I will have to say it was the better of the two sandwiches. I appreciated the goat cheese in the sandwich and the mix of different ingredients, but it was not something I would consider to be a great sandwich, at least not for me. Others might find it pleasant, but I did not care for it much. The fig sandwich was the one I was more excited about and expected some sweetness to be cut down by the bacon. I don't think it was a perfect balance between the two, and I got a tad much of the overwhelming sweetness of the figs in this sandwich. Again, others might enjoy it, but I didn't care for it. I really wanted to give this place a great review, but unfortunately it did not meet my expectations. The beer looks fun though and might be a good reason to give this place a try, and you may enjoy their sandwiches and many people have. For me, that's a no-go.

Volleyball tournament at Eastern U but decided to stay in Spokane @The Louie (check out that review too) for the weekend AND IT'S RESTAURANT WEEK, YAY US!!! Note: this may not be a long review because I put off writing this review. In short food and service is spot on. GO AND TRY! Make sure you go during happy hour so you can try a bunch of food and if you're not full yet order dinner, LOL We walk in on a Friday night not knowing restaurant week was happening and decided to walk over early since we're meeting up with friends...so happy hour just started too! Now we got SPOILED because we're looking at three different menus: happy hour, restaurant week and their everyday menu. Each had something we wanted to try so let the ordering / food fest begin! Street corn ribs, Brussels chip = super light, pokè tostada, steelhead chowder (not pictured), halibut, sea bass...many cocktails since we walked and dessert. We had dinner with friends so there was much more food on the table than in the review. And if you get to the bottom of this review and don't try Steelhead Bar & Grille when in Spokane, it'll be your loss!

Great bar & great eats.

They have a vast selection of local brews both on tap and in cans. The menu is centered around their star attraction the pizza. Although they offer sandwiches and salads. Started with the Roskelly Dumplings, the Italian sausage inside provided an excellent bite. Then ordered the Lacrosse pizza and it was perfect. The crust was Neapolitan style which is my favorite. Will for sure go back.

We went to Cascadia Public House on a Sunday with pretty high expectations after reading so many…read moregood reviews, but unfortunately it was a letdown from start to finish. The biggest issue right away was how long the food took. It felt like we were waiting forever, and by the time it finally came out, it definitely didn't feel worth it. We started with the pretzel, which honestly was nothing like a pretzel. It tasted more like glorified fried dough and didn't have that classic pretzel texture or flavor at all. For drinks, mine was way too strong and just didn't taste good. It wasn't balanced at all and ended up being hard to even enjoy. For my main, I ordered the Cascadia burger medium, but it came out clearly well done and overcooked. On top of that, the egg on it was severely undercooked.. some of the whites were still clear and slimy, which completely ruined it for me. I had also heard good things about the mac and cheese, so I gave it a try, but that was another disappointment. It was bland and runny, and even after adding salt and pepper, it still had no real flavor. My husband ordered the chicken sandwich, which wasn't terrible, but it was definitely on the dry side. They were also out of fries, so he had to get fruit instead, which was kind of disappointing. Overall, the food took way too long, the quality didn't match the price, and the experience just didn't live up to the hype at all. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.

I believe it was marinara, pesto, and vodka sauce and it was all homemade. I've had a lot of pizza in my day and this takes the cake! The restaurant itself is located in the Saronac Commons and it's the kind of place your order and find a seat. The spot is super cool and service was quick. There are no notes on this place, except that you should definitely go

So many choices.

They were happy to accommodate with a lettuce wrap and making me a burger with grilled onions, cheese and mushrooms - kind of a mix of their mushroom swiss burger and shamus bacon burger ingredients. Good burger though lettuce was a little wilted. My husband enjoyed his stew and my daughter liked her Shepherd's pie. While we were there, a young lady got up on the bar to sing so she could have the honor of sticking her signed Dollar bill on the wall - everyone ended up singing along which made for a fun afternoon.
