The Yard offers great pub food. Not many options for actual vegetables, but it *is* a bar! Love the rooftop patio. The servers take reasonable care of you. The darkness of the main restaurant implies that I should feel guilty for day drinking. Ha! I don’t!
Rated high as our server was awesome. Joked around with us. Great sense of humour. We saw some food going out, looks really good.
This was our favourite Broadway stop.
First time here. Beautiful evening but unfortunately the patio was full so we sat downstairs. A bit too close to other patrons along the long bench. Had a steak sandwich, was okay but took a little long. Even though it's probably not fair to the Yard & Flagon, I would've given a slightly higher rating if it wasn't for getting panhandled on the way in. Was at a restaurant on 22nd last night and was panhandled there too. Makes a person not want to leave the suburbs.
Went in for a quick meal on a work trip. It was loud but everyone seemed to be having a good time. Service was a little slow, but it was steady in there. Food was excellent, lamb burger was very good!
Loved this little pub! I had a coconut chicken sandwich full of hazelnut cream cheese. And if I could make love to a sandwich this would be the one! So good!! My boyfriends steak was a bit over cooked but otherwise great experience all around!
The food was OK but the servers here went above and beyond for us and that's why I'm giving it a 5/5.
My geriatric mother-in-law who needs a wheelchair decided that she wanted to go here while we were out at the fringe festival and she wanted to sit on a patio to get some sun.
Not only did we feel welcome, the server helped us carry her, wheelchair and all, up the two flights of stairs to the patio.
I can't quite remember her name but I think it was Killin or Kelli. Bless that young woman. When my mother started choking on her coconut chicken sandwhich, the server patted her on the back until she spit her food up...I think she literally saved my mother-in-law's life, not sure sure if I should be happy or angry, lol.
I would rate this place higher except that the service is horrible. This is a place were my friends and I go regularly - especially in the summer because the patio is excellent - but the service is always slow. In four years I don't think I've ever had service that wasn't slow during the summer months. Winter is always better and the servers are friendlier too!
This is my latest experience with the Yard. We waited an hour just to get appetizers and another 40 mins for the mains. The server didn't bother to tell us it would be slow because they were busy. We assumed it would be because it's the Yard but it's always nice to get a heads up from the server instead of wondering why the server disappeared and didn't check on the table - we couldn't get more drinks with any sort of speed either. The deep fried pickles were excellent when they finally came out - very hot and the pickle was still crispy which is perfect. The portions were excellent. From the comments of the group their meals were all good and up to the usual standards of the Yard. I had the moon burger - vegetarian burger which tastes amazing and the patty isn't dry which is a problem a lot of the time. It was tasty and big enough to make me feel full but not so big that I couldn't finish it. Kudos to the kitchen!
This is where I feel like I can't give it a higher score. Our server never mentioned their kitchen was back-up until we got our mains - and we had to ask if something happened since it took so long - then we were told that the mains took longer because we had appetizers. I understand that it can be busy but for the server to imply that the timing was our fault is strange. The server seemed to be in the patio area only part time and wouldn't circulate to all the tables every time they were up on the patio so about 50% of the time we wanted new drinks we had to wait even though the server was in the patio area. It should be standard practice to mention if the wait is going to be especially long before ordering.
If you aren't in a hurry the upstairs patio is a great place to relax in the summer.
I'm not rating this place a five because of the mind boggling gourmet food. The Yard & Flagon deserves a five because it is exactly what it claims to be. It isn't pretentious or trying to be something it's not. It's a pub that serves pub food. Now don't get me wrong, this is some of the best pub food I've eaten. It wasn't too salty or greasy and I felt perfectly fine after the meal. The prices are exceptional as well. 12$ for a turkey pot pie and a side of soup. The waitresses were friendly and genuine. I could tell that they actually cared about my experience. I also enjoyed the zany, busy decor. I am definitely coming back and will recommend to all my friends!
I've never had anything but the best service and pub food here. Great servers, bartenders, and interior. Food keeps me coming back! Thanks!!
Good pub food. My fav is the coconut chicken sandwich. So good!!!!
Great options for beers too!
I like the size and coziness of the place. Reminds me of being in a small European neighbor hood pub!
Loved it, was geared toward ppl my age with the music. Service was amazing, food pretty good for pub fare. Only complaint is how packed it can get. After a half hour we were able to get a table. Can't wait for roof top to open again.
Was inexpensive as well.
Loved the roof top patio. Excellent service!! The Cajun chicken burger was amazing. Good gin & tonic. My friend had the fish n' chips and it was good as well. Great selection of beers on tap.
Tuesday wing night was a good time. Not as packed as I thought it would be but it was great as we were able to have a discussion drink locally brewed ciders. The crab and artichoke dip was really good. Don't do what I did and get excited and eat it to soon and burn the roof of your mouth a little. Let your friend that didn't read this do that. Lol. Thanks for a great night. Met up with some people that worked on this movie there. Great movie by the way.
Always a great place to meet up with friends. Staff has always been super friendly and accomodating to customers. Delicious food and great drinks are always available and they feature a beautiful rooftop deck for summer visits!
Best spot in Broadway Avenue with a patio on the top for the sunny days.
Very friendly staff 👍
