Great food and huge beer selection. Truffle fries are a must here! Different seating environments throughout so it’s a great place for dinner or to watch a game

The Yard House is delicious and this location has the biggest bar and ample seating. That being said, get here early on game days or you won’t get one, it fills up like crazy. Always a wait at the door where they check IDs. The lettuce wraps, sliders and chicken wings are good options for splitting amongst friends.

Came here to celebrate a friend getting his PhD. Yay Nate! Service was awesome, and so was the food! We ordered egg rolls, truffle fries, and guac with chips. Hubs was like nah, i’m not hungry… then he devours the guac and chips a little while later. Ahh… gotta love him lol. House IPA was good, and as a newly ordained beer connoisseur, I’m a bit picky about my IPAs. Blame the husband for that one… when I met him I hated beer. Thus, he created a beer monster. Beer rules! It was a little on the loud side, but it’s practically a beer garden in the Fenway area so there ya go. I shall return if I’m in the area and have a hankering for beer and good eats! :)

First time at a Yard House and the beer and cider selection was memorable just as promised! I wish I reviewed earlier to remember what we got on the table, but the Harpoon Craft Cider was light and seasonal and was a great accompaniment to the truffle fries. And there was also something with«Rose» in the name(I couldn’t find it on the menu online again) which was also easy and fun! This was an appetizer only night for our table as we watched the Packers’ game(so definitely go here for game nights!). Here were the hits — Truffle fries Kungpao Calamari Ahi Sashimi Chicken Nachos Coconut shrimp Lettuce Wraps They’re all uhhh-mazing and we ordered seconds for some of these. The servers were also very friendly too! The food isn’t through the roof and the beer and cider selection is pretty good but again, not the best I’ve seen. The ambience can be a little too dark too, so expect that.

I came here for dinner tonight for a friend’s birthday and we ordered a lot of appetizers and entrees to share. First, I got a pineapple express per my friend’s suggestion and it’s pretty good but a little too sweet. We got the lobster artichoke dip and chips, and that one was just okay, nothing impressive in my opinion. The crispy duck wings were pretty good though. I usually have chicken wings so duck wings were something different and they tasted delicious. The lobster garlic noodles were pretty good too but I think they can add a little more sauce. I feel like this entrée was too dry. The truffle fries were so good! They were very crispy and flavorful, what a pleasant surprise! I tried the pork taco and fish taco. They were okay. I thought the pork one was better. We then ordered the desserts — the trio sample with peach cobbler, crème blulee and chocolate cake soufflé. We also got the banana pudding… All of them were too sweet for us. Service was good and quick. They put happy birthday on the plate for my friend and it looks really nice!

Had the $ 6 happy hour wings(jerk flavored) and the sauce it’s served with is so good! Truffle fries were good(a bit oily). Had the asada taco(eh) chicken tinga taco(so good). This was my 3rd or 4th time there and I loved it. Our server was also really nice!

You cannot beat the beer selection at any of the Yard House(franchise) locations. This Yard House near Fenway is very similar to ones in Dallas — featuring lots of beers at near-premium prices. We had a comfortable table for 8 before a football game at Fenway Park. The place was crowded(and with a long line outside) but the service at the bar and our table was great. We had beers from California(Lagunitas) to New England(Shipyard) and the basics like Miller and Coors. They offer a variety of drinks sizes from: 1) the six-pack which is a beer flight; 2) the shorty which is basically a 16 oz pint; 3) the pint which is a more proper 20 oz. pint; and 4) the half-yard which is giant glass of beer. Their food menu is expansive but the quality was hit or miss. We really enjoyed the chicken nachos but the boneless buffalo wings were just«blah». I even think the boneless buffalo wings were just taken from a frozen package, flash fried, and covered in a little bit of sauce — there was nothing special(or good) about them. The burgers looked great and we even enjoyed a marshmallow chocolate brownie for dessert that was devoured in minutes by our table.

Fun place to get drinks and food before going to Fenway. The drink selection is very impressive. I highly recommend the patio area during warm weather. Their turkey burger and sweet potato fries are my go to items :)

The food here is great. I had the clam chowder & ahi poke(think that’s the name?) and both were really satisfactory. In fact, I could have just eaten the clam chowder in a huge bowl and I would’ve been fine, it was that good. If you’re getting an entrée, definitely tack on a bowl, it’s worth it. The ahi situation was good but I felt like there was something missing. Maybe more pita crisps to eat it with or maybe I had envisioned more of a tuna tar tar in my head and this was a bit different. Not sure. Overall great service and food. Might suggest our bartender smile a little more. :)

The atmosphere is dimly light college crowd drinking heavily with good music playing and waitstaff buzzing all over. I am obsessed with the truffle fries. They are what French fry dreams are made of with truffle oil Parmesan cheese and parsley. The burgers are excellent especially the bernaise burger and sliders. The Cuban roast pork dip is a tasty treat as well. Don’t forget to order a yard beer. The options are endless. Or try the specialty drinks. The southern belle and the Brazilian lemonade are refreshing and delightfully fruity.

Great location, awesome beer selection, but overpriced food. But I have yet to try their happy hour, so I will have to go back.

Big fan of the Blueberry Beer by Sea Dog, various treats to get before catching a Red Sox game and for chilling out on off days or after the game. My #1 stop in Fenway area.

Can I just say HAPPYHOUR, HAPPYHOUR, HAPPYHOUR?! I encourage you to go and give the happy hours a try. Everything is sooooo good! You can’t miss it. The place seems small on the outside but it’s spacious and comfortable. I went on a Tuesday around 10pm and it was pretty packed. My only NO-NO is that they have to run passport ID’s through the manager after the waitress has already checked it? Really??? Other than that, it’s a great spot to take friends who are visiting and to enjoy a great atmosphere. Plus, it’s the place opened the latest around the theatre besides the supermarket. What do you prefer? Plus, they have what I thought were beer pitchers on the menu but ended up being long individual vases. Interesting twist to the night. You should at least go once, so what are you waiting for?

Came here on a Friday night. It was most definitely a full house, you couldn’t even find seats at the bar. The front staff informed us it was a 30 min wait. I think we waited only 15 mins which was great. Our service was wonderful. Our waitress did a great job. She was very understanding that we might be there longer than per say.(Girls catch up night indeed!) About 2 hours later she asked us if we wanted the check, which I believe is her subtle way of giving us the boot. Food is good. They have so much variety on their menu, it make my indecisiveness that much worse. The truffle fries are my go to starter. It’s pretty yum! Calamari, spinach dip, and wings are also delicious. I’m not too fond of their nachos though. The black truffle burger is pretty tasty. The street tacos are decent. It comes with two but you have the option to add more. The only downside for me was their drinks. They were pretty weak. All I could taste is fruit juice no matter what cocktail I ordered. Side note: Do not drive here on a game night. Expensive parking rates for sure! $ 45?!? No thanks!

Yard House is quite the interesting place, If you like beer, this is the place for you, with at least 100 different beers from all over the world Yard house has something for everyone. The food is really good too. I tried the Chicken Nachos and the Boneless Wings, Buffalo, the wings could have been spicier but were really good. The nachos were amazing and definitely enough for two average people. both of these things were on the happy hour menu. I would not recommend this place for children, but anyone who is 21 or over. Strongly Recommend this place, it can be kinda noisey during football games, but with that said it’s a great place to watch a football game and have a beer and some great food. The service was incredible, servers were on point, drink refills, questions answered, hot food. checking back…(not surprising for Darden Chain Restaurants.)

We came with friends to have dinner, the hard part is finding parking especially if there is a game or an event going on. Forget about it. We found parking and got in, they sat us right away. Huge selections in menu and especially in beer so you really have to look. Always fun to get the half yard cup, super big beer and always so delicious. The food was good, cooked and prepared nicely. The well done burgers were well done but but burnt. Fries were good and huge portions of it. Wait staff was a little missing, asked him for 4 waters and literally brought me 4 waters no ice nothing. Super nice but I can understand if it was hectic a little. Overall good time here, I can never get bored of the yard house.

I’ve never had to wait 40 minutes for a table before at other Yard House locations, but I did when I came for happy hour on a game day. It was my brother’s birthday, and we wanted to grab a quick bite because he had to go out of town that night. We sat on the patio, which had ceiling fans and outdoor heaters to keep us at a comfortable temperature. We had seared ahi sashimi, moo shoo egg rolls, blue crab cakes, and a margherita pizza. I also had a pint of the Ace pineapple cider, but our server informed us that there are unfortunately no happy hour discounts on drinks in their Boston location. I’ve been to Yard House locations in California and Florida that usually had drink specials during happy hour. Regardless, the cider was good, and the food was descent. The pizza was a bit garlicky for my taste and the crab cakes aren’t exactly gourmet, but everything was decent overall. Our waitress offered my brother a birthday dessert, and he chose a lemon cake. It was pretty busy with sports fans everywhere, and she mistakenly brought chocolate. The mini chocolate soufflé cake that was nice and warm with vanilla ice cream on top, served on a plate with«Happy Birthday» sprinkled with cocoa powder, and we still liked it. However, she came back shortly and apologized. We said it wasn’t a big deal and that the chocolate was good, but she firmly replied, «It’s your birthday and you already can’t drink; you’re getting your lemon!» I thought that was sweet of her to remember – at the start of the meal, she had inquired why my brother wasn’t getting a drink on his birthday and he told her it was because he unfortunately had a 4 hour drive ahead of him after we ate. So she brought back a mini lemon soufflé cake topped with raspberries and whipped cream, and it was pretty cute with the sprig of mint and everything. She came by again before we left and wished him a happy birthday and a safe drive. The food here was on par with other Yard House locations, but it’s the little personal touches that made me enjoy my visit. Our server was cheerful and attentive as she recommended different ciders to me and remembered the small details that we told her about our day. There was a dude standing by the entrance to the patio just being all stoic and watchful – I assume he was there just making sure none of the patrons got too rowdy, since there was a ton of beer floating around as people were hanging out before the game. Upon entering the restaurant, we were asked for IDs and given wristbands so that waiters wouldn’t have to card each person ordering a drink – this is the first Yard House location that I’ve seen this done at. Even though YH is a chain, this location seemed rather efficient but still very friendly, despite the fact that the servers must be exhausted running back and forth while it was so packed. I’ll definitely be back!

The Fenway location is an absolute blast to hang out during any time of the week. I came here on a Tuesday night to watch the semi-final game of the Women’s World Cup, and the bar was absolutely packed! Despite how busy it was, the service was quick and friendly. What I liked most about this bar was the atmosphere and set-up — it has a modern design with an open concept layout, in addition to a variety of table sizes and booths to accommodate all parties and occasions. But best of all is the outdoor patio! It’s definitely a fun place to come and hang out with friends. The appetizers are a tad pricey(but certainly not skimpy in size), although I feel like the prices aren’t as inflated as other places in Fenway. What I liked most about the menu was the alcohol section — it’s very extensive, and provides a brief description of each option.

Some restaurants can learn a thing or two about service from here! Surprising right? I mean it’s a chain! I’ve had consistently great and friendly service every time I’ve been here and one time, the server was thoughtful enough to introduce a new server since his shift was ending. Smooth transitioning — I like. The street tacos go good with beer. Well, pretty much the entire menu does, but I enjoyed the Hongos y Rajas and the Grilled Korean Pork Belly. And I like that you can customize and get whatever mix of tacos you want! My friend’s go to is the mac and cheese with truffle oil, bacon, and mushrooms — not bad. The ahi crunchy is delicious and they have solid wings here, too. The beer menu is extensive and it’s awesome that they have super light and fruity beers — more my style, especially because I had a hard workout the next morning and I just don’t recover like I used to. Yardhouse is the perfect spot for huge groups and their booths seat at least 8 — hollah! The back patio and bar is a sweet spot for hanging out when the weather’s nice. Definitely one of the best options in the Fenway area for food and fun after a game!

Came here after a Red Sox game. The place has a great loungy ambience even though it’s a restaurant. There was no wait and the place is pretty big. Our waiter is super nice and let us try some beers before ordering(committing to a half yard). When ordering food though, that’s a different story. It’s really a hit or miss because half our table for something they really liked and the other half did not. I unfortunately was one of the people who didn’t like their food. I got the burger and it was dry and bland. The fries were bomb though. My favorites from the table were the Korean bbq and the crab artichoke dip! I would only go back for the beers
