About Back Porch Bar & Grill

Back Porch Bar & Grill is a hidden gem that offers great food at an affordable price. The friendly and prompt service enhances the experience, with cheerful staff like Amber at the bar. The menu features delicious options like the Doc Holliday burger, pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw, and BBQ, all made with care. The kids' menu remains popular among families. Many reviewers praise the BBQ meats and sauce, describing them as insane and so good that leftovers can last for days. Customers highly recommend the BBQ pork ribs, calling them a “chef’s kiss,” and enjoy dishes like pulled pork sandwiches with garlic parmesan fries, which they devour completely. The sourdough bread is soft and fluffy, perfect with the pulled pork, and appetizers like Cajun steak bites are enjoyed by both kids and adults. The restaurant also offers specials such as rosemary prime rib dinners on Friday & Saturday starting at 5:30 pm and a delicious New York steak dinner for those with a hearty appetite. The brisket is highly praised for its smoky flavor, reminiscent of burnt ends, with many recommending the German-style potato salad as a top side dish. Although parking is limited in the front and the bathrooms could use some improvement, the overall experience remains great, making it a must-visit spot for locals and visitors alike.

I so recommend this place!! My mother and I live in Grants Pass and we decided to take a drive and check out Jacksonville. I had looked up restaurants before we left and decided to check this place out. OMG!! Awesome Awesome Awesome!!! There BBQ meats and sauce is insane!! Soooo good!! I was so happy I brought my little ice chest for my leftovers. I've got enough for probably for 2 more nights This is a must place to stop at to eat some amazing food!! We will be back!!

Went for a birthday party service was very slow. The birthday person didn’t get her meal until everyone else was halfway done. I didn’t get my baked potato until everyone was almost done with their meal and that’s all I was waiting for a baked potato- Just can’t take that long? They put a few green onions and gave me a little cup of sour cream and butter for my potato and charged me extra money for that.
Pretty disappointing experience

We highly recommend Back Porch for catering!!!! Blu and his crew were so amazing and helpful at our wedding and truly went above and beyond what we expected!!! They made the whole process flawless and really helped make our day special if your looking for a great caterer look no further I can guarantee you will not be disappointed!!!
