Would have only been one star but the cheese fries were pretty good. Terrible service. Waitress only came by our table 3 times. Once for our order, once to give us food. And once to drop off the bill. We were there for over an hour and a half.

This place is terrible! Poor service and expensive drinks for a dive bar, I dont mind paying more but this place isnt worth it. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere… there are loads of good bars in Addison. This place is run by a bunch of hothead bartenders. Will not be returning.

Its a pretty fun place. They have a lot of games and beer on tap, and their in house pizza is the bomb.(I’m not even a huge pizza fan!) They have poker tournaments a few nights a week which I regularly attend. They also have pool tables, air hockey, 2×4 jenga, Monday car meets, arcade games, and my favorite… ring-on-a-string! It is a smoking bar however, so I wouldn’t recommend wearing a suit.

Decided to try a new spot tonight but we quickly agreed that this is one establishment to which we will not return. Atmosphere: For one, the most obvious, they still allow smoking. My clothes smell awful! My hair reeks and we were only there for 45 minutes… an hour tops! If you can stand the smoke they have some cool video games, Jenga and air hockey that I saw. Patio might be a decent option in the warmer months. Seemed liked regulars fill the bar, at least around happy hour when we stopped in. Drinks: Bartender was a heavy pour so my vodka soda was certainly strong… but too strong for me. Husband ordered a couple of beers… no complaints except for the chipped glass. Didn’t bother complaining since we were focused on just getting out of there! Food: Do not come here for the food! Mind you, we only tried the Mac n cheese and Back 9 cheese fries… but how can you mess up cheese-filled food so horribly? Mac n cheese had no flavor and the cheese fries were extremely peppery. Would not recommend either. Service: Average. I can’t blame our bartender for not checking in on my barely-touched drink or horrible food… I wouldn’t want to hear the answer either! I totally love a local bar where all the regulars know each other and the food is mostly bar food but this was one place I can’t see going back to.

We decided to give this place a try based on convenience and walking distance from our hotel. I ordered a local beer that our server described that would be a bock — similar to Shiner… had to send it back since it tasted terrible. I’m certain that a bock style beer isn’t supposed to taste like a berry flavored wine cooler. Maybe the bartender mixed it up… Dinner was a greasy burger and wilted salad. On the service side of things our server was polite and attentive. She didn’t make me feel horrible for sending my beer back. Unfortunately that did not make up for the food and smokey atmosphere. «A» rating for service, D– for not so good food and F for when leave you smell like a dirty ashtray

This is a great spot for sporting events or for a bite to eat and some drinks. The staff is amazing, Our Bartender(Bill) was one of the best bartenders I have ever dealt with. Was in town from California for the Giants Cowboys game and hit this spot 3 different nights. Can’t wait to come back!

This isn’t a bad spot if you know you are walking into a dive. It’s not super prestine or well maintained, but they have daily specials and pretty friendly staff. We like to go for Car Show Mondays. Half-priced pizza and $ 3 draft beers. The pizza is well prepared and served up nice and fresh. The mixed drinks aren’t bad for the price. I don’t th ink I’d ever consider this a regular place that I love to go, but it’s not bad. It’s a very run of the mill place. Nothing sticks out food, drink or service wise.

Came here for the first time for a free poker tournament. Was really impressed with the quantity and friendliness of servers, the menu options(all my favorites! Every yummy fried thing you can imagine, sandwiches, apparently homemade pizzas), and the delicious fried pickles. Prices are reasonable. Will definitely be back, despite the cigarette smoke. It’s that great.

Walking in, thought my ears were about to burst. Ordered a drink, shouted to my friend across the table, he shouted back at me, and we still couldn’t have a conversation. I’m sure there’s a very good reason for a bar having their music so loud that you cannot have a conversation with yourself, let alone anyone else. Maybe I’m getting old. One and done. Not likely to be back here. I need to save what little hearing I have. Only decent experience was the female bartender who took my order, brought me my drink, took my money, bought my change. If you like fk-this and fk-that music that rattles your ear drums, this is the place for you. Thanks, but no thanks.

What a great place… went for the finals and had a blast. Lucky and Laurie was such good bartenders. The big jenga is so much fun. I had the diablo pizza. This is not at ordinary sports bar. Can’t wait to go back. Ask for lucky or Laurie… they will absolutely take care of you.

The food at this place is pretty good. I’ve been here a few times for Jared RK Car meets. Pretty fun environment. I’ve tried the«Mexican» which is a chicken sandwich. The sandwich is amazing!

This is our home bar. Smoking is present but not over the top by any means. Cheap enough drinks. It’s our favorite bar to come here in addison. They have TONS of regulars for a reason. The food is OHSO good! If you want a fun but chill place to eat drink and hang out with friends this is it. The staff is also great– and QUICK! Tons of tv’s all over as well as pool, air hockey, hook and ring, and life size Jenga.

Is there any place in Addison cooler and better for people watching than The Back 9? I think not. This place has everything from finance nerds to Trent Resnor wannabes all under one roof. I love the energy of this place. Always busy, solid food, cute staff, friendly manager and best of all stiff drinks. As a former bartender, the owner of this place knows how to give you a stiff one. Eat, drink, play that evil game with the ring, or try your hand at the poker table, The Back 9 has it all. Oh and I forgot the totally rad DJ.

Cowboys game and there is only one girl waiting tables for drinks. Might want to increase that for game day. I enjoy a sports bar that lets you hear the announcers of a big game. This place the dj is asking questions on the mic and they are playing trivia. Nice bar, it’s sort of two bars in one. The bar side and the«other» room I would call it. Did not try the food, was not there long enough. Increase wait staff, and might consider opening the place up a bit. I’ll give it another chance soon.

It’s just… okay. I’m not going to rush back but it was a typical bar with typical bar food and for my added value, an air hockey table. The food was cool, nothing to write home about. Had the Back 9 fries which were greasy but tasty and the Texas burger and the Mexican chicken sandwich. They had $ 3 wells. Service was fine. Atmosphere was cool. I’m not a smoker but it was not too bad though definitely. A presence. Can’t say much because it was straight vanilla. Go or don’t.

Great place to unwind for a late happy hour or weekend evening. The crowd seems to be late 20s and up, which is perfect for us. The beer towers kept flowing and our waitress was friendly and responsive. There’s an assortment of arcade machines(Buck Hunter, Golden Tee, etc.), Air Hockey and the olé«Loop on a string hanging from the ceiling that you need to swing over to the hook» game. I don’t know what the last one is called but it’s good, cheap entertainment. Anyway, the place is a decent spot and I’ll be back. The burgers were also pretty good(I did the Kalifornication).

I can’t believe I have never reviewed Back 9. My husband and I have been coming here since it opened 4+ years ago. Tony is absolutely the best bartender. He remembers our drinks, even when its months since we have been. We love going for football games on Sunday. They are very accommodating to getting audio to our games. We really like the food here, its definitely good bar food. I figure myself a cheese fry connoisseur. The back 9 fries are the best — but everything here is great and we can never decide — The Mexican sandwich, french dip, pizzas, wings, salad, all great! We love the laid back but slightly upscale environment. It can be pretty busy on weekend nights and especially on UFC fight nights, but its always fun — drinks and food are great! We even had one of our wedding receptions here!
