I've been here a few times and my last visit was just ok, this time around it was pure bliss. My wife and I took advantage of a kid free day and some beautiful weather and enjoyed a few sips on their back patio. This is just a beer bar, so beers and seltzers only. I went with the Crow and Wolf Ocean Blast seltzer; a blue coconut, mango, pineapple, and lime beverage. Insanely good and refreshing on a hot afternoon. My wife went a peach seltzer that was just as tasty. We sat in the backyard area, that offers plenty of seating, a few TVs, and a ordering window so you don't need to head to the inside bar to order more drinks. The out area has smoking and non-smoking sections and is dog friendly, but they must be leashed. For food, we went the tri-tip BBQ pizza and a soft pretzel. The pizza was delicious and the perfect size for two people. Huge chunks of tri-tip, spicy BBQ sauce, and very cheesy. I asked for jalapenos on the side for an extra kick of heat. Right now is the perfect time to hit up this place since the weather has been so beautiful. Make sure to check their Instagram page for live music and keep supporting local! read more

The Backyard Social Club is such a nice addition to Clovis, the vibe is laid back, employees are nice and the backyard set up actually makes you feel like you're out hanging out at someone's house with friends. They have a little bit of everything from food to coffee (before 2pm) to cigars to local breweries on tap. I wasn't expecting much when our friend ordered their pizza, but oh man was it delicious! The crust is nice and crispy and it has the perfect amount of toppings, we also got the tri tip sandwich that comes on Dutch crunch bread and who doesn't like a nice Dutch crunch?! The bbq sauce was also delicious and I loved how the tri tip was not too thin, not too thick. They have so many different offerings, I noticed they have a 'beer float' which I will order with Crow & Wolf's Dark Wolf next time. They have so many event we happened to go on open mic night and it was a nice chill experience, but I'm really looking forward to trivia night on Tuesdays. Give this place a try because it's better than I anticipated, even my husband enjoyed it and we both can't wait to go back. read more

This is a cute hang out lounge. We came here after dinner on a Saturday dinner. It literally was a decked out backyard. They had lots of outside tables, lounge chairs, live music, a fire pit, and games like Jenga and corn hole. They also had a bar with beers but no cock tails. They had a little arcade area with indoor seating. We ended up playing ping pong which was fun but since it was dark they didn't have good lighting beside the one light bulb from the wall. I got a dark horse drink which was pretty good. They had small bathrooms but I liked how they decorated St Patrick's theme. They also sold food and snacks. There was a cute cat in the cafe too. The music was cool and even saw a couple people dancing. It's a nice spot to bring your friends or go on a date night. read more

Love the chill vibe, live music , craft beer and their fig pizza!!! The service is fast and friendly.

Went to Backyard Social Club on a Saturday evening for beers and dinner and had a great time. They have a huge selection of beers on tap, from local brews to non-local options, plus seltzers as well. The food was solid with generous portions. One of the best parts is the variety of seating -- downstairs, upstairs near the pool table, booths, and outdoor seating with fire pits and picnic tables. Ordering is done at the bar or counter and you grab everything yourself, which keeps things casual and easy. The only downside is that they close pretty early on weekends (10pm), but overall it's a fun spot with a great laid-back vibe. read more

Great place to chill have a beer and relax. Ambiance is very chill whether inside or outside.

I had tried this place once before and it made a really good impression. So when we were looking for a chill place to hang out on a Thursday afternoon that also happened to be my birthday, I was really happy to be around the corner from this place. The food is pretty good for being a bar, definitely better than most bar food. And the portions are really big too. Their beer selection is nice too, with a lot of 16oz cans to round it out. So you can get everything from an IPA to a seltzer, but not always a hard kombucha as they were out that day. The bartenders were all really helpful and attentive and even got our food for us since it wasn't busy. I'm definitely looking forward to enjoying the patio once the weather stops trying to kill us all. I can easily see myself coming back to this place a lot in the future. read more

This little bar and grill is tucked away in an unassuming location and is a great hangout spot! Great for a date night with nights of live music, an upstairs patio with shuffle board, and twinkle lights on the "backyard" with plenty of seating and games including ping pong and shuffle board. Pizza was great, beer on tap as well. read more

This place is hidden gem here in the Valley. There's nowhere like this for coffee in the mornings. Has an Inviting atmosphere and the staff is super friendly. Lots of areas to choose from for seating outside (could be an issue once we hit the 3 digits and nobody wants to be outside). Just a charming place! The evenings are louder, but it maintains the same relaxed neighborhood feel. Our son and his friends, in their mid 20s, love this place too. Definitely would recommend stopping in - morning or night. read more

I love the atmosphere so relaxing . I love that it is set up like a backyard and get to enjoy it with friends and family

5/14/25 Getting lunch! Talk about a hidden gem everyone! Really Great! Looks like a tiny little house, but once you walk in...it's HUGE! Cute GREAT, large backyard too! Huge tree and plenty of room! Greeted by nice worker and ordered the turkey bacon ranch sandwich. No mayo, no ranch and upgraded to their potato salad. Also got a Reese's chocolate cookie that was a teaser at the register and looked Great for dinner. Paid for order and worker handed me a buzzer to go off when it was ready. Checked it out. Really in awe of this place! Nothing like you expect from the outside. Even a pretty large bar in the back. Besides the GREAT Backyard. Bartender greeted and was very kind too! Sat back there until my order buzzed. Calm and Great atmosphere with birds chirping. Love! Shortly later, buzzed, went to pick it up and received with a thank you! Lunchtime! Ate at home. Definitely eating there next time! It's A LOT! 1/2 is plenty! Turkey bacon Sandwich was fresh & DELICIOUS! Potato salad was seasoned, tasty & flavorful! Dinner looks Great to share for later too! Good service & GREAT lunch! Highly recommended! read more

Great atmosphere, cold drinks and friendly service. Felt like a backyard family hangout.

Good vibes here. Rotating tap and pizza. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with live music on the weekends. And if you're an animal lover there's a sweet cat that roams and says hello read more

We had a great time here! I'd heard of the Backyard but had heard it was a renovated home/backyard and didn't "get it." It definitely didn't look like a renovated house to me but it's a fun spot! The backyard is actually the star here, lots of great shade and seating, some games and sooo much good beer. They even had a shelf with cans of Off! to keep the bugs away. When we visited last weekend, we came to see a live band - they were GREAT. We sat at bar which was the area where the band played. It was fairly small but they made it work. There is also a small upstairs area with more seating and games. They also have a decent sized menu with pizzas, sandwiches, a few salads and other appetizer type food. I think we just opted for the wrong choices. My salad was great, just not good food for eating at a bar while watching a show haha. We and our friends also ordered the pork verde nachos. These were the most disappointing. The meat was kind of dry - the verde insinuated sauciness to all of us but nope, it wasn't and I don't even know why it was in the name. Later we also ordered the giant pretzel and that thing was delicious with enough mustard and cheese sauce for the whole thing. Customer service was great , every bartender we encountered was friendly and gave great service. Food was the only reason I knocked off a star. We are looking forward to coming back. read more

Very friendly and nice choice of local beers. The pizza and pretzel were excellent and reasonably priced

Walking in, you'd never expect this place to be as big as it is, but there's so much room to explore! The backyard social clubhouse is exactly that--a perfect hangout spot with an amazing atmosphere and even better drinks. The food is wholesome and just makes you feel good. They always have music playing, from live bands to open mic nights, plus extra games to play and plenty of cozy spaces to kick back. On top of all that, the service is fantastic! The staff is always so friendly and genuinely seems to love what they do, which makes the experience even better. This spot is a true hidden gem, and I love coming here every time! read more

I've now been here a few times in the past couple months and love it! Such a chill, comfy environment inside & outside. Inside has an older vibe to it. Bar, tables , booth options and stage for live music. Outside has so many tables, chairs and benches. Option to bring your own stuff and rent a grill. Games. Outside stage. It literally feels like you're in a backyard. Service has always been great! All the bartenders have been so sweet and organized. Great food/drink options! They have several beers/selzers on tap and so many cans to choose from! Food is just kind of bar/snacky vibe. Typically an older crowd, which I'm a little surprised, maybe it's the area?? No complaints just an observation. This is such an easy go to, especially with a bigger group! I'm sure I'll be back soon! read more

First time here! This place is super cool. I love the whole laid back, chillin in the backyard vibes. When we first arrive we were a bit confused about the parking but saw the signs that we could park in the back. You can enter through the front or the back. They have games in the back, and even a grill if you'd want to bbq. They have a restaurant and on the other side the bar with seating and stage for when they have performers. You can also walk upstairs. Didn't get to go up there but I assume there may be seating or it's for viewing the performers. The staff is nice and attentive. I enjoyed my beers, but the one thing that's not the best is the menu. It rotates too fast. Cool place forsure! I want to try their food next time! read more

Lots of beer selection, they have several on tap and a cooler filled with craft beer. Outside is very welcoming lots of retro chairs to sit and a beautiful big tree. We were there during the day but we heard it's a Poppin place at night. Both bartenders were as sweet as can be. read more

I've been here twice and what a cool hangout spot this is! The backyard has a lot of seating and out door games to play. Upstairs inside the club there are more games and plenty of seating. They have live bands that come play. Service is great. Beer is good. Haven't tried the food but it looks good! The only downside is a small parking lot in the back, but other than that, good place to hangout with a group of friends! read more

I wish I can give this place 10 STARS!! The ambience is great. We tried the "Get Figgy with it" pizza and oh Lord.. The service was top notch. I think we've found a new place to hang out. read more

Amazing atmosphere for the gang of friends to hang out and have a few drinks. When the weather is good, I can imagine this place would be packed if not then more space for people to sit and hang. The bar is inside and there is sitting in there too. All my years in Clovis, I totally have been missing out though I'm not a big drinker, this is a place to just go and shoot the breeze with buddies. I know that everyone else had no complaints and they appreciated the atmosphere here. Most everyone that came to hang wasn't even from Clovis. I believe they would recommend this place also. read more

Very confusing walking in. No greeting/welcome until you find your own way to the bar. Then... great service, with a tasty pizza and beers. Extremely laid back, feels like someone's home and backyard. Very cool places to kick back. read more

Left Hacienda Tequila because of lack of service. Off to another restaurant and found this place open. Walking into the yard found many people socializing and having a great time. I totally dig the atmosphere! All workers were very friendly. Decided to get a few things on the menu, which is primarily bar food, but what really stood out was the Chili Verde Nachos and the Chili Cheese Dog. The Good: Great atmosphere, great music, good vibes The OK: The food Needs work: Guy that took my food order gave me pulled pork nachos instead of Verde. He also didn't listen well, as I told him to open a tab. The person who poured the single beer charged me for two. We resolved it though. As others commented, it is somewhat confusing with no real direction. I am really hoping this place gets better with time and has the opportunity to earn two more stars from me. I will definitely be back! read more

This place is walking distance from my work I like to go on Sundays cause I'm off at 8 and it's the next lot over , good beer selection and the ambiance is cool. Emily suggested the pesto pizza I had only had the pepp before and 5/5 so good . Service is always great they work as a team well at that spot . read more

Great ambience! Super fun, I loved that they have shuffleboard. I just wish they sold alcohol too.

Great spot. Unique outdoor/indoor options. Lawn chairs are awesome. Arcade room was fun. Backyard games (no lawn darts!?) and live music. Something for everyone. Gem on The Clovis Autoban. read more

Atmosphere was nice and relaxing. The food was great! Live music was perfect due the night.

Great friendly service from the bartenders to the restaurant side. The backyard area has games like corn hole, beer pong, table tennis along with lots of seating a tv and fire pit. Outdoor bar with different selection of beers and an arcades. Upstairs loft has a tv, lots of seating and a shuffleboard table. Nice size bar with a wide selection of beers. They have a good size food menu as well but we just stopped by to check it out and have a drink. Will be returning soon to hang out again! read more

Selection of beers is rotated often which i didnt like at first but it forced me to branch out, and im glad i did. Fun events going on most days. New favorite spot. read more

Love the cool throwback decor. The back yard area and the seating is great. Definitely needed that in the area. Friendly staff. However the poor stage is in the corner,no room for dancing. They need to have mix cocktails . They have all beer but wheat or Blonde. You should have set ups and bring own liquor if you can't sell it. I didn't try any food. Cool coffee area however! read more

I love this place! The atmosphere, the bartenders, the fellow patrons. Everyone is very relaxed, chill, no awkward entrance, no regulars that get more attention like (wink, wink) across the street. The house band rocks I love upstairs and it's like being in a fun backyard that you would want to design at your own place. All smiles and no drama. Yes!!! read more
