Having a refreshing Beer while watching your dogs play what's not to like?! I took my pup Kona here for the first time recently and She loves it here! Paul & Zach were great in helping my girlfriend & I setup a new monthly membership. I've only been here three times so far, but so far the service has been super friendly & awesome! Also, I've been waiting to try the food I heard it's tasty! read more

My dog loved all the sweet attention he received on his birthday, and I was totally impressed by how nice were all the employees. The doggie treats are nice. The menu is pretty decent and it tastes good but it's a little bit overpriced since you could definitely eat somewhere nicer for the same price, still pretty convenient to have the option. The margaritas are way too sugary and not so great. Next time I'll have beer or something else. *My dog got fleas after our visit to the park, but I guess he'd be exposed to that anywhere else. read more

Yard Bar - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

Generally speaking, I really like yard bar. We've been bringing Clyde since he had all his vaccinations and he gets to run around with all the other doggies. It's nice that most people who come here are dog lovers, so he gets to pop in and say hi to humans too. Most dogs here are pretty friendly, but there are definitely a few aggressive dogs that the "bark rangers" seem to just ignore. They can certainly do a better job of asking people to leave with their misbehaved dogs. read more

This place is a great place to take your dogs. For the people complaining about the staff and how they separate dogs (when doing things they should not be doing like humping) they are the ones who don't realize that YardBar is NOT a place for you to go and socialize and totally forget about your duties as a pet owner while you drink. The bark rangers are there to ASSIST in keeping the park safe and separating dogs that fight but they are NOT there to babysit your dogs or clean up after them so if you see your dog dropping a fat one in the middle of the yard, get your lazy ass up and clean up after your dog. I personally LOVE YardBar and have had almost no negative interactions with the staff (only one time when they changed the hours on weekends out of nowhere) and even at that I still haven't stopped going at least 2-3 times weekly. If you're looking for a place to just go and forget about your dog go to the dog park on Riverside and 35 and see how well that goes for ya. If you're looking for a nice place to have a few brews while your dog plays, YardBar is your place. read more

This was a great bar with a lot of outdoor seating. The drink options were many, but I limited myself to the frozen rose because of dietary restrictions which include delicious frozen drinks. There were lots of dogs here and we do not have any dogs because I am super allergic, but I took an allegra when I got home and it was 100% worth it. Those little dudes are so fast, and you might even be able to ruffle the ears of a golden doodle. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Great place for the fur kids to get out and meet their friends while us humans unwind with a drink and conversation after work. Most the people that take the time to really read and understand the rules of the park have enjoyable experience here. Yes there are Bark Rangers in the park but they are not dog sitters you still should be watching your pups and correcting them if needed, also picking up after your pet is a must to keep this park nice for all. The rangers are there to help keep peace and to help educate pet parents on good play. All dogs play differently and it takes some time to learn the difference between the different play styles. My recommendation would be to try it a few times before making any decisions on if you like or dislike this place. Also try different times of day and different days of the week! Come and enjoy! read more

Yard Bar - Lola and Nino enjoying Yard Bar - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

Nice option if you want to bring your dog while going out to eat. The food is pretty good and they have decent beverage options. Their employees are good about keeping a watchful eye on the dogs in the park to make sure they are getting along. read more

Love this place! Great place to bring my dogs on the weekends and he just runs around getting dirty making new friends each visit :) they have a full service bar with specials each day and a happy hour 3-6 M-F they do serve food but with my experience it's not the best lol but I don't come for the food just good times with my pup and great beer! Check this place out. And for small dogs there is a small dog park right next door! read more

Great spot for your dog to have some fun while you enjoy a drink. I think it works if you're from the area and can get the memberships rather than paying almost $6 per person to get in, but it's alright if you're just checking the place out for the first time and not from there. I got one of their spiked hot chocolates (can't remember which) and, while it was good, it was pretty strong. Other than that, I could only taste the cinnamon that was also very strong. We got our doggo some meatballs with gravy and she loved them, and we got ourselves the sliders which were delicious. I do wish I had gotten the actual burger instead. All in all, it's a cute touristy spot if you're from out of town, and it might work best for you if you're from the area. read more

Yard Bar - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

The bar of my dreams. First of all, I don't drink and was very happy to see a decently-sized Mocktail / non-alcoholic cocktail menu with some delicious beverages on it. Second of all, who doesn't love being surrounded by a bunch of dogs living their best lives? We visited on vacation so we're dog less, but loved getting some dog petting in read more

Yeah, definitely never returning here. Over priced food and then they want to charge you to allow your dog into a dirty park.

I had an excellent time with my pooch. Dog helpers in the yard were super helpful. My 9 year old dog (who does 100% not act 9) had such a great time!!! The regulars, who you could mostly tell as regulars, were pretty friendly. Drinks are decently priced. No beers over $6 from what i saw. I am definitely getting a monthly pass when i go back. 100,000% love this place!!! read more

We were so happy to find this place while driving though Austin. Great place to let the dogs run around and have a beer at the same time. We desperately need one of these where I live! I will be back when I am in Austin again. Thanks for the great service! read more

Spent $35 on food and beer and then they charge $5/dog for entrance. Not to mention, we weren't even allowed to bring our 7 month old puppy because he isn't neutered. Talk about comedy! Being that his breed is not recommended to be neutered until one years age. Guess we won't be coming back. I don't care that they gave me a one day free pass for the inconvenience. I'd rather go to a dog park FOR FREE that isn't overcrowded. read more

If you love dogs, food, and alcohol, then you'll love Yard Bar! But I mean, who doesn't?! I have only great things to review as my pup and I come here frequently. It's an outdoor venue with 2 separate areas (one for small dogs and one for medium-big dogs), a bar, and plenty of picnic tables to enjoy a brew on while your pup runs around. There are little obstacle courses, tubes, and barriers for them to jump over while they play. Of course, there are misting fans and kiddie pools when it gets warmer outside- I mean this is Texas! If you want to enjoy some food, you have to go to the other side of the venue with your dog on a leash. But I mean hey, nobody wants dogs on the tables while they're eating. The best part about Yard Bar? For only a $5 admission and proof of your dog's vaccinations and spay/neuter, you can let your dog loose and not worry because they have doggie patrol workers (!!) who keep an eye out for any fights or scuffles. I was told they are trained on how to de-escalate dog fights...although I've never seen any serious fights break out. Everyone is usually pretty happy-go-lucky. I apologize for the lack of photos- usually when I go it's in the evening so it's pretty dark. But give it a go! You'll definitely love Yard Bar! read more

All of the staff we dealt with were just great! I do have to say that the only b**** in the place (including the dogs) was some random manger. Here's why. It was cold, and the have a few (very few) heaters in the dog park area. The heater we were at blew out because of wind. I then re-lit it. Blew out again. Again re-lit. Again, out, and as I'm relighting there's this wild eyed homely looking manager/owner coming toward me, screeching "sir,sir, sir, you can't do that, it's a liability". Never mind she runs/manages one BIG liability! There were too many dogs there (for my dog to play with) and it wasn't really THAT busy. Food was extremely average and over priced (burger ~$12). Drinks were VERY overpriced (~$10), plus there's a $5.50 charge for just the dog being there which is annoying. That.... thing..... lost a customer for life. read more

My pup loves this place more than anything in the world, and so do we! We used to come here almost everyday but recently just moved out of Austin, we are definitely gonna miss it. The bark rangers were so sweet and the concept is super unique. Keep doin what you're doin Yard Bar! read more

Don't get monthly membership.... One of the staff member said I should only come twice a week, though I have paid for unlimited access.

We don't have a dog but we love this place. Perfect corona get-away. Staff wears masks and plenty of hanitizer available. Open outdoor space, respectable chicken and sauce (fries are good too) and draft beer! Friendly staff. If you have a dog, you're missing out. If you don't, you're missing out. read more

Yard Bar - Yard Bar - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is an awesome place to bring your dog while you have a few drinks. Brought our puppy here a few times now and she's getting better each time we go. It's a great way to introduce your pup to other dogs and people. At first, our pup was hesitant and always by our side. Now she's running around and jumping into the kiddie pool. All the Bark rangers are friendly and love dogs. After a while, they got to know my pup by name and would try to pet her. The rangers are there to make sure there are no fights and will stop it quickly before any dogs get hurt. The only downside to this place it is only 21 and over. They always have different things going on and they will have movie nights. This is where they will play a dog related movie and have different drink specials to go with it. They also have a kitchen here. They keep this separate from where all the dogs are at because I could only imagine how crazy it would be if 20+ dogs are staring at you wanting to eat. I recommend the yard bird. It's a chicken tender sandwich with slaw and potato salad. The chicken tender was well seasoned and it was fried to perfection. They also have doggy sliders that are made with beef and vegetables. Our pup gobbled it up. I can't say enough good things about this place. Give it a chance if you want to introduce your dog to other people and dogs. They have a day fee or you can pay monthly. read more

I'm not a local Austinite, but if I were, I'd bring my pup to Yard Bar all the time. We went last night by a recommendation from a friend and loved it. Super friendly staff who knew almost every pup and pup-owner there. Very chill environment with wide space for the pups to play, enough seating around fires and at tables for many groups to gather. Good drinks all around--cocktails and beers. 13/10 would do a revisit again and again read more

It's unfortunate. We used to come to the place three times a week for almost a year straight. But almost every time we go now there's a fight within minutes. There needs to be an occupancy limit, or maybe the place has just gotten too popular and there's no saving it since people stopped caring about how trained their dogs are before bringing them. I cancelled my membership and stopped going just for my dogs' safety. We tried it again today for the first time in months really hoping it had improved. There was a four dog fight before we even got in the gate, and an even bigger fight five minutes in. We just left. The premise is good. But there's no way to execute this and let it get this popular while still maintaining dog safety. This is not a safe place to take your dogs anymore. read more

I looooove this place! LOVE IT! The good: AMAZING bark rangers. Those guys are really what makes this place special. They are so diligent at keeping the pups in line for lots of safe doggie play time. Keeping water bowls full. Clean, you don't see a whole lotta poop everywhere. They keep the place pretty clean. Bathrooms as well, great selection of beer and booze. Friendly patrons Fans and misters for hot days. read more

Just left this place. Had a really wonderful experience. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Bar is perfect for the spot. Loved the fact that they have a "bark ranger" keeping an eye on the park to keep dogs from getting into it. Definitely will be back! read more

Lots of reasons to love this spot. Great place to let your pup make new friends, always a great rotation of local tap beer, and the food is actually really great. Salads never disappoint and my recent BLT was incredible! When the menu lists 'all the bacon' as an ingredient, they mean it read more

I don't usually review places, but when I have an experience worth talking about, I will. Let me just say- I think, actually, I know, I enjoy yard bar more then my pup. Every time we go, it's nothing but a positive experience. The bark rangers are great and super friendly. My dog likes them more then the other dogs, which says a lot because I always considered my dog the Mayor of all dogs, that's how friendly and outgoing he is. Zak, one of the bartenders, is one of my favorite parts. He's always so welcoming, funny and makes me feel part of the community. If you haven't been to yard bar yet, you're missing out and must go! Thanks again Zak and all the staff for such and enjoyable experience and keep me coming back! read more

I really like this place! The food was great (I added fried chicken to the hummingbird sandwich, so good!) It was super hot outside but they had the mist fans running and it felt amazing! And the employees were just really graceful and connected really well. You just have to order on your phone to minimize contact. Also ordered the dog ice cream for my sister's pup. Definitely recommend! read more

We come often and have membership. This past experience was very difficult. My husband put dogs in yard as we do to check in, and this bark ranger, Richard, begins screaming at us to never do that again? It was the strangest thing and such a horrible return back to Yard Bar all because of the way he treated us, talking to us like we are animals. I really was excited to bring our dogs today and then to be talked to like this made it disheartening. He def needs more training in customer service. I could never talk to my patients like this, nor would I want to as a physician. read more

Don't forget to close your tab, but if you do you can call them and they will close it for you and give themselves a 110% tip. Will never go back here if this is how they do business. read more

We used to bring our dogs here often to play but now we will never again. In the past few months we have noticed that there is a high turn over in park rangers and they dont know how to do their job. We came in and a fight broke out in between two other dogs. Ours was walking by and got drug in. Someone in the group drew blood and the yard bar staff said well we think your dog drew blood but we dont really think that however he is being blamed, so you are out for the day. So we got kicked out and the other two got to stay. read more

The staff is actually very good to the dogs but they do not know how to work the computer system at check in. One employee was indifferent when I asked when my paid membership had expired and only offered the solution to sign up again with no information offered... Not sure if it's a lack of training or what but I was told that I would be contacted while I was in the park and the employee immediately left the office after my check in and did not offer any follow up, just chit chatted with another bark ranger and not about my request for information on my paid yearly membership. The customers are the worst part and although the staff is very good with the dogs they need to learn how to manage the human clients. I have had not many but terrible encounters with other dog owners and all of the instances I was approached first, they are usually easy to ignore or travel to the other side of the park to avoid. But on one occasion I had tennis balls thrown at me while sitting at a table when there was almost empty park where the tennis balls can be thrown in any other direction without hitting anyone! Honestly the staff is usually very friendly and passionate about their work but the employee who couldn't care less about answering my questions about my membership when she wasn't busy and another employee who let a customer throw tennis balls at me make me miss the old bark rangers and employees who could've talked to them about their behavior. I have bought multiple year memberships to yard bar when they first opened for both of my dogs, however I let them expire this past year and I will not be coming back, even for a day visit, after my last experience. I inform everyone I know not to give money to this business or come here anymore, just wait until another competitor comes to austin so we can give them all of our money instead. read more

I have been coming here since the first month they opened. Today I was told I could not bring in 3 dogs when as early as yesterday I was here with all 3. In addition to yesterday, I've brought 3 dogs multiple times over the last 2 years. I understand policy changes, but was told by the manager that it's always been a 2 dog max only?!? I will be closing my membership out. I know this review probably won't change anything, but I feel very disrespected as I've supported this local business from day 1. I've referred multiple friends who also bought memberships here. I would've spoken with the owner but didn't see her today. She needs to get her staff on the same consistent page. It's unfortunate but this will cost my future business . Thank you read more

Yard Bar is pawsitively awesome! It's pretty much everything you could want in a local business. You can bring your dogs and they get to play with other dogs! Austin loves dogs. There's a nice beer, wine, and cocktail selection to make doggie play time more enjoyable for people! Austin loves to drink. You can even eat food! Austin loves food. What's not to like? A day pass is $5 and it really is an all day pass. There's not a time limit. A monthly pass is $15 - if you plan on going more than three times in a month, it pays for itself and seems totally worth it. They also have other options, too, like an annual membership, which includes unlimited visits and discounts on food, drinks, and events. There are a few rules, but they are all clearly listed on their website and they go over them with you if it's your first time. Just make sure your dog is wearing a flat collar - no harnesses or choke or prong collars - with ID tags with your dog's name. Make sure your dog is up to date on vaccinations and bring a leash, pay attention to your pup, pick up his or her poop, and you're all set! The park itself is great. There's tons of space for the dogs to run around and they even have some agility course stuff set up, if your dog is into that and can do it even with all the distractions. My dog loves the thick cedar mulch because he LOVES to chew on sticks. As much as he loves playing with puppy friends, he loves chewing sticks into tiny pieces way more and that is usually what you'll find him doing. Fine by me, because it keeps him out of trouble - not that he ever gets into any trouble here. Speaking of trouble, the only thing I wish was done a little differently was how the Bark Rangers interact with the dogs while playing. Some dogs are very vocal, but not all barking is angry barking. Some of the Bark Rangers don't seem to fully understand dog behavior and what good playing versus bad playing looks like. On the other hand, some owners don't seem to know the difference either, so maybe the Bark Rangers do it that way because of bad dog owners? I wish dogs wouldn't be separated when they are just roughhousing, but I can understand why they do it. My dog is too boring to get involved with any of that, but I feel sad for the other pups when they just get so excited and really into it and then they're made to stop. It feels like we should all reinforce good playing and when dogs are separated when playing well, that teaches them that what they were doing is not okay. Not quite what I want to see reinforced, but oh, well. Again, I imagine they probably do this because they don't want trouble to start or they just don't want to deal with dog owners who don't know the difference. Speaking of dog owners, if your dog is clearly miserable, take them home. Both times I have been, I've seen people bring in their dogs and those dogs are terrified. Tail between the legs, slumped posture, slightly aggressive when approached kind of terrified. To be clear, I don't think the dogs are bad dogs, but the dogs are clearly stressed by the environment and not enjoying themselves and anyone who knows anything about dogs can see that in their body language. What's worse is that the dog owners just kind of ignore the dog and that doesn't help anything. It's okay if your dog doesn't like it! Just take him or her home where they'll be more comfortable! Also, if your dog poops, PLEASE pick it up. No excuses! I understand if your dog goes off in some corner and does the deed and you miss it, even though you are supposed to be watching your dog, but if your dog poops right in front of you and you don't pick it up, you're a lazy butt. I watched some woman's dog poop FOUR TIMES and she only picked up one! Even though all the poops were in a nice little circle! So lazy. Don't be that woman. Other than that, I love what they've done with the space and I love getting to hang out with other cool people and dogs. I can't even begin to tell y'all how many dogs I've played fetch with since going to Yard Bar. I also can't begin to explain how many times I've thrown something only to watch the dog get distracted by the ever-roaming pack of pups. It's hilarious. I think sometimes there is music playing, but it wasn't playing on my last couple of visits. I hope they bring that back. And those bathroom doors - Adorable! So far, I love Yard Bar and I think it is a great addition to Austin. I love it, my boyfriend loves it, and, most importantly, my pup loves it, even if all he does is chase balls and chew up sticks and occasionally play with a puppy friend. If you're a beer-drinkin', dog-ownin', fun time-havin' resident of Austin, you'll probably love Yard Bar, too. I promise to make sure Graham leaves some good sticks for all the other stick-lovin' dog friends in Austin. read more

A few years ago, word got out that the old Putt Putt on Burnet was being turned into a dog-friendly bar, restaurant and dog park. Its been a long wait for this place to open and I personally think it has been 150% worth it! The park is organized into two very open park spaces that contain yard chairs, naturally, picnic tables, and tons of space for the pups to play. The surface is covered with cedar mulch (pest control), and the entire space is lined with oscillating mister fans. I personally don't love these at restaurants as they tend to hit you straight on and cool your food but here they just cool the air and keep it moving...it really made for comfy temps even on a super hot August evening. There are currently two spaces open (and a third appears to be being finished); one for dogs over 30 pounds and one for dogs under 30. Dogs under 30 lb can enter large dog park. You do have to be present with your dog in the park which obviously makes sense. The "Bark Rangers" (tip them! there are jars for it!) are friendly and attentive and have the relatively thankless job of a) picking up dog poop (pick your own dogs' up if you see it) and b) breaking up potential dog fights. It being a bar, you can drink to your heart's content (although, please remember to keep an eye on your dog and his general activity...) and they have a full bar with some interesting cocktails and (per hubby) good beers. Rates are $5 per day per dog, $15 per dog per month, or $150 unlimited for the year. Each additional dog from a single home is $25. Right now the park is open 11-10 and the restaurant is open 5-10; we typically we go over at night once the sun goes down but look forward to visiting during the day when it cools off! You cannot bring your unaltered dog (for I hope are obvious reasons) or your children (for even more obvious reasons). Outside the dog park under the big tree ( I think its an ash?) there is the restaurant area where food is served. It's bar food so I kept expectations low, but they hired one of the chefs from Second Bar and Kitchen and really have a high-quality casual spread. We got the "picnic basket" which is an assortment of cheeses, breads, marconi almonds, and jam, their hush puppies which were *amazing* - very crispy and light and not overly fried with a delicious sauce that I took home and ate on veggies and bread, yum- (and a portion of proceeds goes to a dog rescue each month), and the burger. All were outstanding. Of course the dogs aren't forgotten on the menu; there are ice creams and sliders. In addition to the restaurant, one other very unexpected surprise is that we have met a lot of other friendly dog"parents" there who live in the neighborhood. We were excited to socialize our dogs but didn't expect it to be such a fun social experience for us as well! Many of our personal friends are not "dogpeople" like we are so its great to meet many other dog"parents". Our dogs, while seniors, have a blast every time they go over even if their time just involves sniffing everything they can nose. They have thought of every detail...I was there for the soft opening but I can't think of anything they missed! We have our family memberships and went pretty much every night opening week. PS. they currently have a 2 dog limit per person so if you're a dogaholic like me you might have to pick which of your kids you love most... read more

Yard Bar - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

It costs $9 for your dog to be off leash & you can't eat in the off leash area. They're expecting you to pay for barely decent, overpriced food & pay $9 to go to the off leash area. The minute I entered, the "park ranger" immediately and RUDELY told me to take my dog off the leash when I had so many things in my hand (water, my dog, my dog's stuff table number, my bag) I said okay and literally dropped all of my shit & I don't understand why she was upset about my dog being on a leash in an off leash area as soon as I entered ??? They don't allow you to bring your dogs toy & confiscate it. What do they expect your dog to play with & literally what are you even paying for? Just go to a park which is free. This is ridiculous. read more

What a cool concept! A dog park where you can chill, let your dog hang with buds, and you can do the same...but with an icey cold brew! We had a great time here. You have to register your dog there are rules and a $5 and some change for a 'day pass', but this place helped our little Scout socialise with other dogs but we we're able to hang and visit with our friends too with a pretty great beer selection! We will for sure be back! read more

I was so looking forward to this place opening thinking finally my 18 year old daughter and I could come bring our new pup to a dog park and enjoy a dinner while our pup played. I can understand why children wouldn't be allowed in the dark park area for safety reasons (and most likely to limit liability) but really, 21 and up? Why not 16 or even 18? I mean, that is the legal adult age. 21 is a pretty random age unless you're only allowing those of legal drinking age in but the rules stated it was for safety reasons. So, we were relegated to staying on the patio which wasn't much fun for my dog. Needless to say, we won't be back. I also can't help thinking they're leaving out a large demographic of college age kids in a college town. Kinda not cool. read more

I love Yard Bar pretty hard, but I have a few reservations I need to share, from a vet I spoke to and also regarding the "bar" part. First the bar: The drinks have been in my experience pretty awful. I ordered a simple hot chocolate the other day and it was just hot water and the clear liquid chocolate flavoring (like vanilla but chocolate flavored) they use at coffee shops occasionally when they are out of actual chocolate syrup. This is, and I hope I am not being too dramatic here, an abomination. Worse. than. powder. even. I've also tried a couple of the alcohol drinks and not enjoyed them. Up your drink game yard bar! As for the dog park part, it's really well arranged, I like the seating and benches and appreciate the bark Rangers. That being said I've seen a couple of dog fights recently where the Rangers were nowhere to be found and owners had to do the breaking up. Another positive: The only food I've tried was the cheese plate but it was great. This last feedback comes from a vet I talked to and not me directly but he said that his concerns with Yard Bar are sometimes he sees dogs whose feet are cut up from the sod they use, and that he's treated dogs with burnt paw pads from when the concrete gets extremely hot in the summer. This seems like stuff the management should maybe consider fixing (before my hot chocolate thing even). read more

Came to a Yorkie meet up here to get our dog socialized with other guys his own size and overall I enjoyed the place. They have very friendly and helpful staff when you walk up that explain how it all works. We started out in the small dog area which is off leash and is where our dog tried to avoid any and all contact with all 4 legged creatures mistakenly believing them to be carriers of the plague, until we decided to get a drink on the other end. One thing I didn't like was that you couldn't walk up to the bar area to get a drink from the small dog area. I wish it was also connected directly to the bar so that we could grab a beer while our 7lb frightball pretended to socialize. The beer prices are quite high here. I was not wowed by the menu or prices, but to be able to bring your dog out to play with other dogs in a fenced off, supervised environment and enjoy a beer while you do it is nice. My wife got an apple cider which was good on a cold day and I had a Live Oak Hefeweizen on tap which comes in a dinky plastic cup. Service was slow and clunky, and they had issues with their credit card machine so it took a good 20 minutes to get our card back after trying to pay. All in all a decent spot. read more

Yard Bar is a surreal spot. Dogs of all sizes playing and running with each other, there is happiness in the air, you can feel it! You don't have to bring a dog to enjoy the experience, but it sure helps! There are two sides to the park, a dining side where on leash pets are allowed (so you don't fend for your food with 20+ dogs around) and a leash free play side with a separate "small dogs" section fenced off. Memberships and daily fees for those with a canine companion, though free entry without pets. On the off leash side, order drinks at the window, and they're fine drinks too that warrant the novelty premium prices. The Bark Rangers offer a little order and peace of mind, but this is a situation that involves some risks no matter the precautions taken. Beware it's dark at night, walking among a pack of dogs carrying drinks quickly becomes a challenge! On the food side, there's a hostess stand to check in at and waiter service. I enjoyed my cobb salad overall, it was chock-full of fresh ingredients, but I didn't appreciate the cold chicken. It felt lazy for the $11 price tag and took away from what would have otherwise been a better cobb salad. There is no covered seating anywhere, the tall storage building next door does provide a bit of shade during the day, but not the place I'd want to be on a rainy day. Yard Bar delivers a unique, feel good experience that will keep me coming back for more! read more
