Backyard Bar & Grill

Great food, great selection and incredible service. The crowd is mostly all locals, but they’re quite hospitable. If you’re into microbrews, then you’ll love this place. Be sure to ask what the daily specials on food are, because it’s always something different. On weekends they fire-​up the grille and Ribs and Half Chicken dinners can be purchased, which are incredibly tasty.

poor service — good wings — bad crowd. For locals only.

The backyard has Very good at a very reasonable price its a very nice place you can bring the family. The atmosphere of the place is very nice and call me after a hard day at work, the bartender is very nice

Came here with some friends on a Wednesday night around 8. The building is a little divey but not too run down. Wings are 45 cents on Wednesdays, .45 cents… this is a serious deal. They weren’t packed, and the wings came out in good time. I got mild and a sauce called backyard sauce which is like a buffalo sauce. They were fantastic for only being .45 cents. I can’t drink, my friends that can says the alcohol is cheap compared to other sports bars. I would definitely recommend it.

My friend and I were in the area and had an hour to kill. We stopped in to grab a quick beer and sat at the end of the bar next to a guy drinking a beer. There was a nice selection of microbrews and non-​domestics as well as the usual suspects.
The guy at the end of the bar, Bill, ended up being the owner. He was bs’ing with us and even went so far as to throw us half a dozen wings to try as he mentioned how good they were earlier. He wasn’t bs’ing us on how good the wings are because the samples of the Backyard and Backyard Liquors (or Licker?) were AMAZING. Some of the best wings I’ve ever had.
Combine the incredible hospitality, great food and beer selections and you have a winner. My buddy and I are gonna round up a few friends to go there for wings, pizza and beer in the near future.

Great place for wings! Big, crispy, and delicious. My two favorite flavors are back n blue and backyard sauce. Best wings in the youngstown area.

I found this gem on vacation in Ohio and I am glad I did.
The Backyard Bar & Grill has hands down the best selection of liquor and beer of any dive bar in the world. They have everything ranging from a PBR to Johnny Blue and La Familia. And with prices that can’t miss, 3.50 for the 9%er craft beer, Erie Monster, are you kidding me.
The food — I’d rank as damn fine. Its true bar food, but with a nice spin to it. (try a stuffy or the Back and Blue wings)
The staff will make you feel like you are apart of the of the family that owns this place. I spent a great deal of time chatting with the brothers that run the place, PJ (front of the house) and Spencer (kitchen) and couldn’t have had a better time.
My only regret is that I dont live closer. The drive from Florida is a bit much.

This bar opened less then a year ago and has been a TRUE GEM since I’ve been going there. The new owners took an old run down strip club and have been in the process of revamping her into a warm and friendly place that invites you in and makes you feel at home. The inside has been redone, the kitchen is in its final stages and I think this spring/​summer the owners will be working on the outside. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a warm and inviting neighborhood bar! Cheers…
