I haven't been here in a few years and was disappointed to see they no longer have waffle fries, which were so good. Now they have fries that are coated so they have crunchy bits on it. While it might sound good they're not, IMO. Also, no more Pepsi products, but Coke instead. Strike two. At least the burgers are still a good as always and the employees are very nice. read more

Backyard Burgers - Classic burger. - Burgers Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

First time eating here so I have no previous visit to compare it to. My partner and I arrived at 10:44 wanting an early lunch. They were open but only one couple eating inside. The ordering system and ordering board were inaccurate. The board says combos and items, but the ordering system must be bought separately. A cook there helped me understand what was going on. I ordered the Back Yard Classic, fries and a small drink. My partner ordered just a mushroom burger. It was ready very quickly and was made fresh. The taste.. well ... it was very bland, the burgers were dry like ones made from frozen, and overall had little flavor. I guess I expected them to taste like a burger that was made in your back yard. The fries were decent, but again, no flavor, no salt. It wasn't a bad meal, but for $22.15, I was expecting a little more. I'm giving 3 stars because the place was clean and the food appeared to be fresh. I won't be going back, but I hope they improve their menu. read more

Food was good however they are offering 1/2 price milkshakes between 2 and 7 PM. But the manager said that if you don't request the 1/2 off at the time of ordering, you have to pay full price. This policy is ridiculous! read more

Been a long time since I've had a burger from here. They did not disappoint. I wish they would come back to Springfield MO.

First visit to Backyard Burgers. It's located just off 540, and an easy in/out when headed to or from the airport. Burgers are the thing, so that's what I had. It's a nice-sized burger. Flame-broiled so it has that smoky taste. Burger is well-cooked, not overdone. It's juicy and thick. Adorned with lettuce, tomato, onion. Ketchup is at the table, so it's not served on the sandwich. Also tried onion rings. These are excellent. Piping hot, crispy, not greasy. Perfect for a dip in some ketchup. This place is a great alternative for a burger. It's not any more expensive than McD's or BK, but the quality is better. read more

The most recent reviews led me wrong... I love burgers, and my hopes were high... This did not live up to my expectation! The burger itself was very dry and overcooked. My daughter's chicken tenders were nothing special, probably straight out of a freezer bag. Milk was an up-charge with a kids meal. ‍ The best part of our whole meal was the fries... I highly doubt I'll go back. read more

Food is mostly good and the sodas have good carbonation. The service is quick. It is a nice feeling after you eat a burger there. 3 stars.

Was a place to get a good quick burger and a choice of sides... now they've taken away side options

Poor service, told to place my order on the kiosk which I did. I need help because I couldn't figure out how to add the drink and fries for the combo. Had to find someone to ask for help. No other customers were even in the store. Only to find out the menu is old and they no longer sell combos and the prices are now more as well. read more

I had the mushroom burger and it was just ok. Service was very quick, it was ordering from a kiosk which is ok, but you can't modify from there. The onion rings are amazing! Crispy, REAL ONIONS, and crunchy. I also had strawberry lemonade which was just ok too. We also had a BLT, was disappointed that it was on a bun instead of toasted bread, kind of defeats the purpose, but otherwise, it was good. The floor was sticky, but otherwise it was very clean inside. read more

We did the drive thru option because the dining room is not open due to covid. I had never ordered here before and the gentleman taking orders was so kind and helpful. We ordered one of each chicken sandwich with waffle fries. Everything was fresh and tasty. The club has bacon and the chicken is blackened chicken with a grilled flavor. We had a coupon from one of the local attraction books so saved a few dollars too. Fast service and tasty food. read more

Great service and food. We ordered a kid's meal cheeseburger with seasoned fries and diet Pepsi. Being it was our first time, we wanted to keep it simple and well let's be honest - I am not spending close to $11 on a meal I might or might not like. To our surprise, this was sooo good! The hamburger was a regular size hamburger (not sure who's kid could eat all this in one sitting lol). We got it with cheese, ketchup, and mustard. It comes with pickles - not for me tho . The bun was fresh and soft. The meat juicy and seasoned just right. They didn't over due the condiments - just the right amount not to over power the burger. It truly tasted like a burger just off the charcoal at the family cookout! Classic Burger When asking the help on what was good, they took their time to explain and never rushed us to make a decision. We will definitely be back! To try the other menu items: chicken sandwiches, turkey burgers, and regular hamburger sandwiches. They do have an oreo milkshake that caught my eye as well read more

Really excellent waffle fries, burgers and surprisingly SALAD ! I recently ordered from Backyard and had a classic burger with bacon. The buns are very fresh and soft brioche. The waffle fries are the best I've had. Crispy, not overly salted and always hot. I wouldn't quite call the burgers " back yard grill style". But they're really big by the Oz and very good. I can't stop raving about how good their waffle fries are. Recently I had the cranberry pecan salad with blackened grilled chicken and that was good also. Backyard dishes out a lot of variety. Burgers, chicken, fries, salad. Anything you crave pretty much ! They also serve shakes and peach cobbler on the dessert menu here. A southern classic. read more

Convenient and usually on point....Ordered Black Jack burger with creole mayo on side. Burger was cold, as we know they are pre-cooked then warmed up, and no creole in the bag. Disinterested kid at the drive thru...do better! read more

First experience with Backyard was in Augusta, Ga in the early to mid 2000's. The burgers and fries are truly delicious. I am having a hard time relating to the critical review on here. Backyard's burgers have an incredible charcoal grill flavor. Great buns. The fries are incredible. read more

Nice people and clean restaurant. You order at the counter and they bring to your table. I had the black and blue burger and fries. The fries are a seasoned battered fry. Nice and fresh. The hamburger was a little dry, though I must admit I prefer a med rare burger myself. Lots of blue cheese and really fresh lettuce and tomato on a really good bun. I will drop in again when I am in the area and try some more of their menu. At the table next to me they were eating an nice looking side salad. That's on my wishlist as well. read more

I got a bacon cheddar burger with onion rings. The burger was good and so were the onion rings, could use a side of ranch or something though. The food came out fast, but there were only 5 other people eating in here. You get a little mint with your food which is really nice. read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight. First of all there's a drive thru so that's a plus. We got to the window and I was going to be basic and order a regular burger. But while my husband gave me the "hurry up" glare I pulled out my handy dandy yelp to see what the yelp fam says to get and I saw great reviews on the bacon cheddar burger. I switched to this and was not disappointed. It's delicious. The seasoned fries are a 10. They also have the option of waffle fries. Why those two amazing things: seasoned and waffle fries, haven't been brought together here, the world may never know. What I also like is that they have a list of fan favorites so if you don't know what to order you can also go by popular vote. I look forward to trying different items next time, I'm sure they also won't disappoint! read more

Backyard Burgers - Bacon Cheddar with seasoned fries - Burgers Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

burnt burger without half the toppings Onion rings were raw French fries were soggy Drinks were flat The only thing right in the entire package was a small cobbler read more

Everything I've tried on their menu has been good, however the cheeseburgers are my favorite! I've always experienced good customer service and I've never experienced any problems. There's not a long wait from when you order your food from when you get it. I've always gone through the drive-thru, but I imagine it's the same for inside dining as well. The only thing I would say is a negative is the price, which is on the expensive side. However, most places nowadays are pricey too, and the cost definitely isn't a deterrent for eating here. So for my opinion, I highly recommend Backyard Burgers. read more

I really liked the bacon cheddar burger and seasoned fries I recently had at Back Yard Burgers. The burger was pretty juicy and had a nice chargrilled flavor. The fries were hot and delicious. Service was really friendly and we received our food quickly. For a fast food establishment, I was quite pleased. My only complaint is that they are a little overpriced, but at the end of the day I'd rather pay the extra dollar or two for a decent burger. read more

The burger was ok, it's definitely better than something like Mcdonalds, but not as good as what I've had at other higher end burger joints in this price category. The fries were not the best, I didn't care for the seasoning. Honestly overall, for the price, I expected a better meal. Probably wouldn't return. read more

Burgers were subpar at best, classic burger would of been better if it had cheese and tried to drain it down with ketchup because lack of flavor. Also the service was not good, I went in (2) hours before closing to try get more ketchup but the evening crew would not open the door or attend the order window. I wouldn't recommend it to someone. read more

My family and I have been here a few times and have never been disappointed! Most recently, we ordered delivery via UberEats and the food arrived like it was fresh out of the kitchen. I had their Chipotle burger, which was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious; I thought the onion straws on the burger really elevated the meal. We also got an order of the seasoned fries and an order of the onion rings, both of which were hot and crispy upon delivery. Their seasoned fries are fantastic (we always get them), and this was my first time trying their onion rings but I thought they were worth it as well. I have also tried the mushroom swiss burger in the past, and that was a great burger for someone who loves mushrooms. Overall, Back Yard Burgers is certainly a step above fast food when I'm craving a good juicy burger, and I'll be back for sure. read more

Other than paper sticking to burgers at point that it was hard to peel off, the meal and experience was overall good. Great taste for drive through, their cheddar is perfect. read more

Amazing Burgers and Fries. Love the Black and Bleu burger and they make it exactly as ordered! The seasoned fries are toooo delicious. We get take out alot from here. Burgers are as good as "home on the bar-b-q!" Will not be disappointed! read more

Howdy. Everything I've ever gotten from here was excellent. And I'm a kinda picky. Anyway. You know how you see commercials and the burger looks pretty banging and you decide to go to the trouble of getting over there and ordering and paying and you open it up and you go what the hell...this lump of crap doesn't look anything like the commercial. Come on. Really ?? Not here. Everything, every time is picture perfect. The tomato is bright red. The lettuce is crisp and cold. The onions are perfect. The burger is seasoned , the bacon is actually cooked and covers the burger. Seriously you could take a picture of YOUR burger and use it in an advertisement. And they taste as good as they look. The fries are delicious, tea is crisp. Bottom line , you will not be disappointed. Go. Try. Leave full and happy. About $10 for combo meal. Worth every penny. read more

I love the fries. The staff are very patient. The place is a neat and clean place. I would recommend

It has been a pretty solid place to eat. I've always used the drive-thru. Turnover at this location as caused inconsistency with the drive-thru from order taking to speed of service. The male on the drive-thru couldn't multi-task. I tried the new Chicken Gouda this evening. It was dry, so disappointing. read more

Wanted a burger and decided to try Backyard Burgers for the first time. Had their chipotle burger with a side of onion rings. The burger was cooked to perfection and so delicious and the onion rings were so crispy. The staff was very nice, changed my order and the cashier had to make some edits and she checked with a manager to be sure everything was charged correctly. The restaurant was nice and clean and wasn't too busy. read more

Disgusting is the best way to describe my experience with eating their "food". Burger was dry, gray and tasted foul. Room temp patty and a cold bun. Took two bites and threw it out. Chili cheese fries were downright inedible. Had some sort of foul, sweet, vinegar taste that turned my stomach. One bite and it was in their trash can. You took $11 of my hard earned money. read more

Great place for drive-thru burgers, fries, and cobbler! The employees are very kind and have never messed up our order until this past visit when they forgot the fish sandwich I ordered and paid for. I did not check the bag before driving away since they always provide quick and accurate orders. After arriving home only to discover that my order was missing a key component, I called and the employee (manager?) was apologetic and said at my next visit I could get a complimentary flounder sandwich. Overall, it was still a positive experience and we will continue to visit this establishment. read more

Everything about Backyard Burgers menu is perfection. The blackjack burger is a favorite for many including myself. The seasoned fries are the best I've ever tried. And the cobblers with ice cream are an amazing treat you can't find too often in fast food dining. Best fast food joint I've ever had. read more

Food was par at best, burgers were super dry and the drive through lady was super rude. Won't be wasting my money would rather just go to 5 guys read more

Y'know, I shouldn't like this place. I'm not proud of the fact that I like this place, but the simple fact of the matter is that I do like it. Hamburgers aren't a tough recipe, but to do them well is a bit of an art. Backyard Burger gives you plenty of choice on how you want them done and topped, and that alone means that you won't be scraping off unwanted toppings. It's a burger joint, but it does what it does fairly well and deserves credit for that. read more

Let me start this by saying I'm not a fast-food chick. A Backyard Burger, however, I will eat. This is NOT a burger from any other fast food joint you've tried. This burger is as close as you'll get to the one off your own grill in the backyard. I was first introduced to this burger chain in college when Boone got one of the first locations in the state (I think). The Bacon Cheddar Burger is off the hook, as are the chili cheese fries. The mushroom and swiss is awesome. Not good (at all!) for a girl on a low-carb diet, but I'm allowed one cheat meal a week and this was the one for this week. The salads are tasty, as is the garden burger and seasoned fries. Even if fast food isn't your thing, give these burgers a try. read more

Great food overall. Unfortunately, the last two times I've visited this location they've handed me the complete opposite of what I ordered. I'll say "no mayo" and then I get a burger with only mayo on it. My mom ordered a chili dog and then it had no chili. I have no clue what's going on in that kitchen. read more
