Outstanding, just outstanding food! I loved their bone in BBQ wings, carnita chips and queso, and bacon blue cheese burger. Easily the best burger I have ever had. Ever. The toasted buttery Martin's bun with that tangy cheese and crispy bacon . Finger kicking good. They have amazing Nutella puff pastry and sundae too. This was Definitely a worth while cheat day. I probably ate my weight in food tonight. Thank you Jeremy for great service and a smile! We will be regulars Only note was interior dining and outdoor patios could be cleaner. read more

The Yard @ 1224 feels like the place you go when you want options and vibes. It's giving food truck park energy but upgraded--plenty of space to hang out, eat, and pretend you're just stopping by for a quick bite...then somehow staying way longer than planned. The variety is the real win here. Whether you're craving something savory, sweet, or "I don't even know what I want but I'm hungry," this place has you covered. Great for groups, families, or even a casual solo outing where you just want to sit back and enjoy good food without any pressure. Bonus points for the laid-back atmosphere--it's easy, it's fun, and it just works. read more

We were greeted as soon as we walked in. The bartender was extremely nice. They have daily specials. The food was fresh and delicious. Everyone said their food was delicious. I had the carnitas grilled cheese without carnitas add a fried egg. It was so good! It's a family friendly environment. bring your crew and have a good time. We sat inside. There's also an outdoor sitting area. read more

There are two locations, but I find this particular location more appealing. Located right off of Talley Rd, don't miss it! Plenty of parking. There's a a bar and small dining area inside, but outdoors in the back is where you want to be. A small stage area to the left (I imagine they have entertainment there on the weekends), a small playground area for the kiddos, and plenty of wooden table seating. We arrived right around happy hour and drinks were pretty decent. I enjoyed my hard cider. Menu consisted of typical bar food- apps, burgers, flat bread pizzas, and hot dogs. Ordered a burger with fries- fries were good, but burger without cheese was super bland and dry. Bun was slightly burned and the burger itself needed some kind of sauce! We sat outside and ordered from the window outside, back of the building. Food was meh, but they do have a great drink happy hour and fun outdoor atmosphere. read more

We stopped by on the way home from a movie because I have been telling my husband how great their burgers are. We got there and headed to the back because we had our kids with us. They played in the sand, which could use some TLC. There were ants e v e r y w h e r e. Couldn't put our feet down and they swarmed our food when we got it on the table. Ended up leaving so we could eat. I ordered the double cheeseburger and got a single. Bar tender said that's what I asked for, but I did not. It's the top burger and i pointed to it and said I wanted the cheeseburger....but I left it alone. Idk I would probably just order to go food from here on out. Super bummed. There was also food frozen in my husbands ice in his drink. Ew read more

This place is laid-back with plenty of inside and outside seating. You can order inside versus outside. The outside patio is dog friendly. It is also kid friendly with a sandbox and an area for them to play. They have daily specials for food and drinks. The food is going to be bar type food. They' have hamburgers, chips and queso, and flatbread. I will have to admit that I would not come here for the food again, but just for the ambience. You can come have a few drinks with your girlfriends and not break the bank. The good thing is that if you do want to snack on something, prices are super reasonable. I had the cheese flatbread and the chips and queso. The chips were good, but the queso was cold and clumpy. The queso did have good flavor. The fat bread was meh. It was just cheese on bread. I added red pepper flakes to give it a little flavor. My friend had a burger and fries and she did say that it was good. She said she would get it again, especially when it's on sale on Tuesdays. I had a margarita, but I switched to a different drink because I wasn't fond of the lemonade taste to it. The sangria wad good. It is in their happy hour menu. My friend had a blood orange margarita and she thought it was just a little sweet for her. Staff members that we encountered were very friendly and accommodating. Parking is available on site read more

I heard great things about this local restaurant/bar so I was excited to try it out! We tried one of their delicious flatbreads and the wings paired with some of their mixed drinks. I was very impressed with the service and the quality of the food! We really enjoyed our meal and drinks. The dining area is clean and very rustic and the location is tucked off the beaten path, away from the hustle and bustle.The Yard is a very cool option for grabbing a bite and drinks outside of the usual chain bars and restaurants. read more

Really great place to grab a burger and some drinks! The burger was thin and the ingredients tasted fresh. The fries were great as well. They have multiple beers on tap and had an extensive drink menu. The bartender was very friendly. There's seating inside, at the bar, and a lot of seating outdoors. We chose to sit outside since the weather was nice. The only thing that I'd caution against is that you avoid feeding the resident cats! I watched them pester several people non-stop! read more

The fries and queso were a bit weird tasty maybe too cheesy, but the burger oh my gosh, it was so good. The best burger I've had out here and I've tried a few burgers and I was literally looking at all these different places but this burger this was top-notch and it's been right next to me this whole time. read more

Cool little place right off the road. Small, friendly ambiance and a nice place for a quick meet-up and adult beverage! Skipped the Outdoor area for a table inside, then spent three hours sitting and chatting over flatbread pizza and a few beers. Check it out! read more

Was craving a burger and found this place among Yelp reviews. Mary welcomed me as i settled on to a bar seat. I had a bacon burger with caramelized onions. Let's just say I left no crumbs. Their summer drinks are delicious as well but they will sneak up on you later. This place will be my go to when that craving hits again. read more

We had never been here before and decided to give it a try after we saw a lot of great reviews about it. The place is a small local bar style restaurant and when we told them it was our first time they explained that we could look over the menu, order at the bar, and then get a buzzer and where to pick it up when it was ready. The place was packed but we got our food very quickly and it was delicious!! The fries were crispy and seasoned and the carnita grilled cheese had a LOT of meat and was a pleasant surprise. The cheeseburger was simple and delicious as well and the bacon was crispy and flavorful. This place is a hidden gem that's apparently very popular amongst the locals and I can see why. It's one of the best meals I've had in a while from a restaurant! read more

Loud music and Loud people typical in a bar environment! We ordered a hamburger and a BLT. Hamburger was bland - no seasoning on the meat patty and came with mayo, lettuce and tomato. BLT was loaded with bacon and was delicious! Fries were OK but very salty. Diet Coke was out of a can and tasted like the can. Return visit is doubtful. read more

The bartenders/order takers were very nice and helpful. The food was great! My friends and I really liked it and would go again, for sure! My dog loved his Pup Plate with burger and pup cup. It was smaller than I expected. Because it was literally a converted house and yard! Parking is a little disorganized and somewhat marked; it's up front and in the lot next door. There are tables in several rooms in the house and the bar is in what used to be the living room. In the back yard are several long picnic tables nicely spaced, a band stand (bands in summer), a bar (for summer) and a sandbox for kids. We felt relaxed and comfortable there. read more

Had a very nice experience there. Lots of open seating and great service. The smash burger was cooked very well. The wings were some of the best I've had in the area. A little pricey for only 6 but the quality is there! The crawfish were okay. Not how I make them but they did the job. I'm also very biased about crawfish so take my opinion with a grain of salt. Overall, a very solid experience. I'll be back as it's very convenient to home and I want to experience it again with the live band. read more

Good food and service. We had the burgers and they were tastefully seasoned. In town for BMT ceremony definitely would recommend.

Walked in and loved the new layout of the place! We had been to the last 2 businesses, and The Yard had made it very inviting! We decided to sit at the bar and were greeted right away. The bartender took our drink orders and had them to us within 2 minutes! We then ordered some chips & queso with Chorizo, and I swear as soon as he entered the order the food was delivered! Oh, the chips & queso with Chorizo was awesome! Cheesy, meaty, and greasy just my style! We ordered our entrees and again within a few minutes we had our food hot, fresh and tasty! My wife ordered the Honey chili wings, and they were a bit sweet for her as she was hoping for more chili than honey, but the wings were hot crispy and delicious!! I ordered the cheeseburger with bacon, and it was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time! perfectly cooked great toppings and condiments and well seasoned patties! I then gave into the campfire Old Fashioned (I don't like sweet Old Fashioned drinks) but this was was great it was very strong and has nice flavors, but I did not eat the marshmallow!! All in all great new spot, I hope they last here it been tough for others but we'll definitely be back to tryout the other food and drinks! read more

Good for a little local bar. Tried the mule and old fashioned with marshmallow. The plastic cups get me but I understand it's an outdoor setting and no one wants to mess with glass. Stick to canned drinks here. Better bang for your buck. Tried the chicken wings with the sweet chili bbq sauce. Hubby got the carnitas grilled cheese and the kids split a grilled cheese. Loved the outdoor set up. The kids played in the sandbox while us adults enjoyed some beverages. They got a good playlist and happy hour from 3-6pm everyday. Give it a shot! read more

The food and service was good. Very friendly staff. The price is a bit on the higher side based on what is being provided. It is entirely too hot inside. We would have stayed longer if there was any circulation or cool air. read more

I really felt obligated to write a review. At arrival my son and I ordered at the bar as instructed by signs everywhere when you walk in. We ordered a drink, order food sat down, sat outside, picked up our order when the beeper went off. I went to the bar after to order another drink. I was told asked if I seated or started my order at the bar and I said no so they asked me to stand in the line with other people who are ordering food and drinks, which didn't make sense. The line just kept getting longer and longer. Only One person siting at the bar. The bar tender decides to start taking orders from people in the line LOL. I just left. I don't know what kind of customer service this is. I've never experienced this. read more

Food: DELICIOUS! MOUTH WATERING, FRESH! none of that premade and kept warm - waiting for someone to order bs. Service: 10 out of 10 Michelin Star Level everyone gives us space to enjoy our food/drinks but if you need something they know before you even ask and always happy to serve Ambiance is great! I love coming over for a bite to decompress after work or for lunch during the week or themed events. Thank goodness I don't have to go all the way downtown for this vibe and good food/drinks. Usually always order lemon pepper wings that are delicious and filling but switched it up for this one time yummmm (the burgers are also FIRE) read more

Came by on the weekend for a family of 5 and we sat outdoors. The frozen mango margarita was very good. Our teenage boys ordered the pepperoni pizza but to them it was ok, nothing they would come back and crave. We ordered lemon pepper & honey BBQ wings, personally my favorite meal. I was not impressed with the carnitas grilled cheese. I get a small business and support local but it was an expensive meal we would normally expect to pay at a sit down restaurant. Will come back for drinks! read more

The was amazing the service was great atmosphere was nice. The drinks were good. Very friendly place to have dinner.

Quaint little spot a little ways off the beaten path. If you sit outside, you have to walk up to a window to order and ring a bell. Small menu the people are friendly. The outside area is nice for a pretty day. read more

The service is absolutely horrible. Came on 2/22 "National Margarita" Day and they had 3 people working. Waited over an hour and half for our food. No communication or anything. Was told "it's next" 4 different times. This is unacceptable. The fact they have you pay for the food first then wait is insane, they know they are backed up and don't even tell people it can take up to an hour for your food to be ready. DO NOT COME TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT. read more

So, your around potranco and you've heard about a place called the.... Wait is it yard or back yard? Looking for that divey bar that allot of locals talk about? Where everyone knows each other in a weird Cheers TV show atmosphere? Soooooo this isn't that dive bar. You're thinking of Serna's Backyard. But that's okay, we're all a bit confused with the similar names. This is a bit classier of a dive ish bar, but be warned. Why is an old fashion cheaper the a shot of whiskey? Seriously $12 for a shot..... ouch in my wallet pocket. And they do charge for everything.... Almost the air too, which fun fact the backyard is also where the good old septic tank is, and you will smell it every once in a while. And not to get too much in the negative, since it's still a new place fleshing themselves out a bit. Dog friendly, they also have a sandbox for your kiddos.... Not for 35 yo man child's to build an epic sand castle... I mean you can but the other patrons will look at you with that half concerned smile..... Wish I tried the grub, I've been told the flat bread during lunch is spot on with a cupola the old groggy munch munch Cheerio. It will take some time but I feel that they will find a way to make it a decent neighborhood place, because they are right on the edge of a neighborhood..... yep.... Yep........ yeppers.......end transmission! read more

We gave the Yard a try on a Friday evening. I had higher hopes for the food based reviews and ratings I read. Pepperoni flatbread: Tasted like a heated up frozen pizza Lemon Pepper bone-in wings: EXTREMELY salty! Boneless wings: The quality of the chicken was good, very tender, but the lemon pepper flavor was slightly over salted Chocolate chip cookie: pretty decent size, however, they were hard and crunchy as a rock. Taste of the cookie was subpar. Too hard, overly crispy and half burnt. And these were the "fresh baked ones " The customer service was good, But the food won't bring me back. Maybe the drinks and atmosphere are the star of the show. read more

I want this place to stay in biz so badly, it's been bbq place, Cajun restaurant, and a few taco huts. As backyard themed bar & grills go, this iteration of 1224 Talley rd. checks a lot of boxes. Pet/child friendly backyard with picnic tables, a small stage for live music, and space enough for some leg room. Inside, they've got rickety floor boards for country credibility, tv's for sporting events, and bougie brunch options to make you confident about your life choices. Hamburgers, nachos, and salads are all delicious options here. HH & reg drink prices aren't anything to wri...well yea they're priced low enough to keep up the payments on the double-wide while assisting w portion control. Bar tenders are attentive and keep the place snazzy and cleanly. read more
