Stumbled in here as I was passing through Lancaster, and man am I glad I did. Perfect atmosphere, small family owned joint, super friendly and welcoming, smells amazing! I ordered the rodeo smash burger, and a side of cheesy potatoes. The burger was easily my top five, maybe top three of all time. Perfect cook, crisp caramelization on the patty, but still juicy and tender inside, high quality bacon(none of that cheap no favor stuff, you know what I'm talking about!) and the rodeo sauce, perfect! The potatoes were also amazing, nice and tender, with loads of flavor. I can't wait to come back and bring friends and family to try more stuff on the menu! 10/10 would recommend!

Had the sampler. The pulled chicken and pork was good. Brisket was tender and sliced good. Great flavor. Their homemade sauces were good had a great variety.

It was a nice hole in the wall bbq joint! Although the menu has changed since these pictures were shared. We had brisket, Mac n cheese, cheesey potatoes, beans, and tater tot casserole. All good.

Amazing food! Trying all of the sauces with the food was also great. Highly recommend if you want some good bbq.

If you’re in Lancaster and love BBQ, you have to check out Bob’s Backyard BBQ! As a chiropractor at Copious Chiropractic, I’m always looking for great local spots that not only taste amazing but also help hit my daily protein goals—Bob’s does exactly that.
The brisket is next-level—tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. They also have a great variety of sauces, so whether you like sweet, spicy, or tangy, there’s something for everyone. And if you’re looking for clean, protein-packed meals, their meats make it easy to stay on track.
Best part? It’s walking distance from our office, so whether you’re stopping by for lunch or refueling after an adjustment, it’s a super convenient spot. Highly recommend giving them a try—you won’t be disappointed!

Delicious brisket - the best I've eaten! Amazing service for our large office when we visited Hocking Hills for a team building event. Great delivery, friendly service, amazing communication. This all equals a worry free and happy team! Thank you so much. If we return to the area we will be back!

I refrain from giving anything less than 5 stars-unless it is warranted. The restaurant is warm, clean and inviting. The staff was slow, but very friendly. I was shocked that I was served a brisket sandwich that was more like SlimJims or beef jerky on a bun-incredibly hard and dry. Far too expensive ($15.00) for a very bad sandwich with mac n cheese. I was with a client (otherwise I would have returned the food) and she had a caesar salad which was very good and fresh. Otherwise, I would have given the food a 2. My advise to the staff is-if you are almost out of an item-say so-don't give what appeared to be leftovers rather than your best!

This place is a hidden gem! Absolutely amazing food, customer service was wonderful. We've been wanting to try it since we live out of town and we will most definitely be returning! The chicken tendors were to die for! Everything made in house. 10 out of 10
Food and service were excellent! Our waiter was friendly, prompt, and pleasant. Monte Cristo was fantastic! Restaurant is clean, wait time was short, and overall is just a great place in Downtown Lancaster! Will be back!

Ordered 4 lbs of brisket for Christmas Dinner. So disappointed . There was 3 slices and the rest looked like it was scraps that was left over for days. Had to use a spoon to pick up the tiny pieces. Most was hard or fatty. I expected so much better for 100.00. When my daughter pick it up they acting like they had no clue it was ordered until she showed receipt. Don't know if I will ever try this again especially for a Christmas dinner.

Very friendly diner. BBQ was moist and tasty. My wife loved the pickles! We will do lunch again when we're back in town (Shoe Factory)
