This place is the surviving cousin of Railgarten. Similar hangout-all-day energy, but with its own charm. It's the kind of place where you can show up with a group, spread out, and settle in for a while without feeling rushed. The fire pits are a standout, especially on a cool evening. They make the outdoor space feel inviting. Inside, the seating area is spacious. The drinks are on par with what you can find around town. Loflin Yard is for sure the spot to be at for a hangout. Beware that sometimes they close for private events. Other than that, it's good service and a decent place to chill at. read more

What a spot! It's in essence a biergarten. I've only been here for two events and both were in the back 'house' of the complex. At both events, the staff were super friendly, attentive and engaged. The vibes are all here. I didn't even realize they had a yard behind the 'back house' until the last event. Both events had a buffet. The first was a mixed bag of weirdness but that was a corporate event which they likely chose. It's kind of whatever. The 2nd event was a wedding welcome party and I was beyond stoked about the food. The quality of the food was much higher. Not that the first was bad but just a weird hodgepodge. read more

Came here on a Wednesday evening around 6:30 PM for a team outing. Yelp mentions they have their own parking, but I was only able to find street parking. Loflin Yard is exactly what the name suggests--a spacious outdoor yard with gravel, small fire pits, and a large patio area. You order food and drinks at the bar, and they give you a number so your order can be brought out to you. It wasn't crowded during our visit, but I've heard it gets pretty packed on weekends. The vibe was great--very laid-back and family-friendly. There were families with kids and even pets, which added to the relaxed atmosphere. The food came out fresh and hot, and the drinks were pretty good as well. There's also a large indoor area with air conditioning, which will definitely be a plus during the warmer months. Overall, a great spot with a fun, casual vibe. I'll definitely be back! read more

I've heard this spot used to be a garage, which makes the setup even cooler. I really like that you can seat yourself, and there's plenty of space with both indoor and outdoor seating. I tried the Baja chicken sandwich, and it was really good definitely enjoyed it. read more

We stopped into Loflin on a breezy Saturday afternoon to grab a bite and catch the last parts of a football game. We enjoyed the atmosphere and loved the community that was also watching the game with us. We grabbed a variety of food offering and were pleased with it all. I can't wait to visit again and try something else or enjoy a beverage! read more

Went there for a company catered meal gathering. The place is really cool with outdoor vibes and games. The patio has lots of forage for shade, lawn chairs. It had cornhole games. I think there are other games you can play out there as well. The outdoor patio also has some sort of little pond. The inside is fairly open with TVs that are overhang for watching sports games when it comes to the food it is good but not best we had sandwiches. We have fruit mac & cheese street corn and chips with white queso. Everything was pretty good but nothing too crazy to write home about. Mac & cheese was the best one. Didn't really interact much with the staff there when it comes to service. read more

Decided to have brunch here as it's been a while since my last visit. We arrived around 12:30 and it was super easy to choose a seating area. The weather was nice so we couldn't pass up on sitting outdoors. I will say I was soooo excited to not end up on the menu today (iykyk). Sometimes those mosquitoes will eat you alive . First time trying their brunch items and omg!!! I chose the Smokehouse Scramble and added Brisket and the breakfast potatoes. When I say I was sooo surprised at the potato medley. Both items were bomb! I also had a frozen Paloma which was very refreshing. Overall, the day was a hit. my girls and I had a great time. read more

Never order a Po Boy unless you know someone from Louisiana was in charge of making it. This is a smoked turkey Po Boy. First of all it's on a hotdog bun with quarter inch thick sliced turkey with supermarket quality mixed greens to justify the $13 they charge you for this. The best part of this was the Miss Vickie's chips they have on the side. The chips were even better than the French fries Jackson upgraded to on his chicken tenders. I ordered unsweet tea because you know your boy got sugar. I asked for sweetener and they didn't have any. None of us finished our meals. I didn't even want to take leftovers home. There was hardly any table service even though we paid a 20% gratuity in advance. read more

This seems to be a great choice when you have a diverse group and casual after work spot. This is convenient to work downtown and great indoor and outside ambiance. Plenty of seating, good food choices and sometimes live music. Things I don't like are individuals at our table has to go place their orders separately and mention card on file. Bathrooms could use more care but we're spacious and stocked. After our coworkers left, me and hubs still went outside and chilled for abit. read more

I appreciate Loflin for its outdoor space and the fun environment during sports events! I like to go with a group - wouldn't necessarily go for the food specifically. The food is typical bar food with a twist and it's good when you're watching a game and having a drink. read more

Four stars for the ambiance & service, which is why you come here. You're most likely coming here for the drink and outdoor environment rather than the food. The food is mediocre at best. However, you will have a good time enjoying drinks and games and maybe catching a game. read more

Ordered tacos and they were ok. Meat should have been warmer. Ambiance has a nice outdoor feel. Service was ok if you consider ordering your food and getting your own drink and napkins for an automatic 20 percent tip. Then reader asks if you would like to add a tip. Places really got to stop doing this. read more

We love it here! Such a great hangout spot! Love the outdoor space. Very family and pet friendly.

Loflin yard is a fun place to go with your loved ones. The building and patio areas are both insanely nice. The staff is friendly and helpful. The drinks were delicious and a reasonable price. We only had queso this visit, but for a meatless queso it was fire! We went for musical bingo and it was so much fun and even the patrons were friendly. Definitely recommend & it's dog friendly! read more

I really enjoyed my experience here. I love the concept and it was really fun to "get away from the city" without actually leaving it. I love the setup with the tables near fans and chairs around fire pits. It has outdoor and indoor, and the cutest little waterfall stream. It is also dog friendly! It is a really cool spot to chill for the evening with a big group of friends because it is very roomy. The food and drinks were great, no complaints! Typical menu for this type of place. We had plenty leftover, so portions were great. Service was great too! read more

I love Loflin Yard! It's one of the few truly unique indoor-outdoor restaurants left in Memphis. The BBQ mac and cheese is my favorite in the city, and the atmosphere is unmatched -- perfect year-round, whether summer or winter. read more

We spent New Years Eve with the amazing people at Loflin. We bought our GA tickets and added a VIP table. We had an amazing time. The Neon Mooners band was just the right vibe for the night. Katie was our server the whole night and she was great. Super attentive and she listened to us talk and talk and talk. Also a huge shout out to Lily the bartender. She was super sweet! We will definitely be back!! read more

After trying all the major BBQ joints in Memphis (Central BBQ, Blues Café, Rendezvous, etc), I was feeling like a change in scenery and trying some place different. I was pleasantly surprised that Loflin Yard came up as a lone option south of Memphis so I decided to have an adventure and check it out. Here's my take on the experience: Quality of food:  Excellent. I went all out and ordered the Pit Boss which comes with 3 meats and 3 sides. For the meats I got the beef brisket, smoked turkey, and smoked sausage. This was served with cucumber salad. For the sides I got the Mac & Cheese, Mexican street corn, and loaded baked potato salad. First of all, the portion size was huge and I ended up saving more than half my food for the next meal. All the meats had a delicious smoky flavor. The brisket was that melt-in-your-mouth kind and the street corn was tangy and fresh. The sausage dipped in the spicy mustard sauce was heavenly. Décor: homey. It's a little confusing at first as to where you're supposed to go. The front door was closed when I went so I had to get to use the side entrance and from there go left to the back bar. The bar used to be a coach house and there you can order drinks and sit inside. I opted to order inside and take my food order number with me and sit outside. There is a wide open outdoor area that feels like somebody's backyard. There's also a small falls like feature right next to the kitchen which is pretty neat. One wouldn't think that this place is so huge from the outside. Cleanliness: All the areas and grounds were being kept clean. Service: good. The girl that took my drink and food order was friendly and provided quick service. Price:  typical for BBQ. The combo was $33. You know....sometimes there's that restaurant which only the locals know about but it never shows up in the "best of" searches or travel magazines or even gets recommended by your hotel lobby staff? I think Loflin Yard is one of those gems. If you're visiting Memphis and have a car and have had enough of the big BBQ places that everyone mentions, then I highly recommend checking out Loflin Yard. This is where the locals go to get good food and relax. read more

We used Loflin Yard this past weekend for our wedding reception and it was incredible. Jess was our main contact and she was prompt, kind, and flexible with set-up and take-down. Everyone loved the catered food and the bartenders did an excellent job with our 180-person reception. We cannot thank you guys enough! read more

Had a company event here. Super easy to schedule and plan with the event coordinator. Food was hot and good! I did request a bar tab and was mistakenly given drink tickets instead, but it worked out fine in the end! read more

The place states it is kid friendly. I guess it depends on the day. The manager/owner Colin decided to start yelling at the kids. Customer service 101, find a PARENT. The yelling encounter was so rude and disruptive, a nearby patron came up to the kids and invited them to play again. The same patron apologized to the parents. The parents had to flag the manager/owner Colin down to address the issue. The parents were met with such sarcasm. Bottom line bring your kids somewhere else. read more

the waiter told my kids they were getting kicked out for playing soccer not even close to their restaurant.

I recently had a family gathering here. First from the outside, it didn't look like much - I find that often the food is great in such a place but I was worried if our large party would fit comfortably. Much to my surprise, the majority of the space is outdoors so it's huge and there's searing everywhere. I was there about 2 hours before I realized that I had only seen about half of the space. What a brilliant idea. Kudos to the Owners for thinking up this setup. I evenly popped over to the outside bar to order food. They briefly indulged my inquiries regarding getting certain items a la carte. In the end, I decided on the Old Bridge Burger. I have to say that it was very good. In hind sight I realized that I wasn't asked how I wanted my beef cooked, but it was well done and I was ok with that. The service was good and surprisingly very quick considering the large number of customers that they had at the time. Overall a good experience. I would consider dining there again and hope that you check it out for yourself. read more

Loflin Yard is such a special place in Memphis! Grabbing dinner here with a friend tonight reminded me of all the amazing things about Loflin Yard that I had to share. This is the ultimate patio oasis for game days (lots of large TVs), big group gatherings, and fall nights (amazing fire pits). Ok guys... the food is amazing. I couldn't recommend the BBQ Chicken Nachos or the Chicken Tacos any more! Any drink I've had here has been fabulous from the frozé/ frozen cocktails in the summer to the warm cider/ hot chocolate cocktails in the winter. read more

This place was super cool and a lot of outdoor and indoor space. Came during brunch and it was pretty good, portions were a bit small in the brisket hash.

Loflin is one of my neighborhood favs. Everything on the menu is great (but don't order the smoked Turkey po'boy expecting a po'boy. It's literally a turkey sandwich, lol), and the drinks are always cold. There are outdoor games to pass the time while you eat and sip, perfect for an evening alone or with friends. read more

Good eats and good drinks in a pretty setting. The expansive outdoor seating sets this spot apart. Our bill was expensive in summer 2022 - $150 for 4 cocktails and 3 entrees. But it was really good barbeque. Don't miss the smoked sausage! Lots of gluten-free and dairy-free options! Kids menu is great too! Highly recommend for families. read more

Stopped by for a holiday market, enjoyed wings and fries, quite a few other menu options like nachos and burgers. So many places to sit, this place is huge. Lots of outdoor tables and indoor or semi indoor spaces with really good space heaters even on a cold day. Tried the pirates of the Caribbean, loved it. Also tempted by this matcha drink, maybe next time. Decent bathrooms, friendly staff, good experience. read more

This could be a great place to go if the food was better. I was truly was disappointed in my bbq nachos, no bbq sauce to be found and just too must fluff. Could not taste the bbq or the brisket. Too much cheese and sour cream. Next I turn to the sausage and cheese platter. Weak, we were served cubed cheese, probably bought from the grocery store sprinkled with some kind of rub, the sausage was dry and the crackers too large too enjoy. Should probably match the cheese sausage with the right size cracker. The crackers were also stale. I really hate writing a bad review but this place was terrible. The only reason why we came here to a because of our fav. They are very dog friendly but it was not enjoyable. My husband's brisket and sausage was just as dry as the sausage platter. The only thing going for them is the French fries. I really wanted to like this place but can't. Again I hate bad reviews but I think this was warranted after $104 bill left me unsatisfied sorry. The service was great the people friendly but the food left something else on my mind. I forgot, the Mexican corn is not like what we get in California. Again I'm sorry for this poor review, it's just my opinion. read more

Let me start here. The ambiance and service from staff is wonderful. So this is not for them. I have taken a while to post this to try to calm down. My friend and I are long time patrons of bars, restaurants in the downtown/midtown area. All of our friends go there. This post is for the manager Colin of Loflin yard. For only him. My best friend and I went there a few Sundays ago. Had a wonderful time, hung out with friends. Spent a good deal of time and money there. Left happy, no worries. However, a few hours later while we were at another bar, said manager Colin walks in. We were friendly with him, as he is friends with a lot of people we know. He was nice at first, but kept badgering my friend about why he was "studying his receipt" at loflin. My friend did no recall this incident and we tried to keep it light and move on bc we had no issue. Yes prices are high at loflin, but we didn't complain. However Colin the manager kept coming at us and wouldn't leave us alone. I (a female and one of the only other females at the time at the bar) asked him to please stop and leave us alone. He then told me "don't fucking tell me to stop" and got extremely aggressive with me. I felt so afraid at that time, and got upset. He later came and apologized for making me upset, but then proceeded to threaten to fight my friend outside. We then left the situation. I will not be going back as long as he works there bc as a woman I felt very uncomfortable and threatened in that situation. He continued to use his position as a manager there to try to create dominance. I hope this changes soon bc this is a great place to go to, however I will not return anytime soon. read more

Loftin Yards is a very unique venue offering an open back yard with fire pits & lawn chairs. I was really digging all the Ambiance and decor of the venue as I was conversing with fellow students I haven't seen in 20 years at my class reunion. The little patio bridge area was something new I haven't seen as they remade and part of the basement area of an old demolished building into a waterfall which was pretty cool. I really enjoyed the food very much. Bing I had some red beans and rice a Brisket Po Boy and Chicken Po Boy. They also had a veggie option set out but I don't do veggie. Everything else I'd recommend. Other than being the perfect place for a wedding class reunion or any other kind of event. I also recommend this place for trivia nights. Hosted by Cerrito Trivia. Check out his FB page for more info. I'll also be posting his card in the photos read more
