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.

my family eats there regularly it has always been good until the last two times!! the brisket was so dry & tough we could hardly chew it! i was so disappointed. we spent $300 this last time. The cooks knew what they served us when they did it!! shame on you!! It wasn't ok!!

One of our favorites, but tonight failed. The service went down in the restaurant so we stopped dining in. More bad service with take out. We drive over 30 miles to eat with you. The Thai wrap is no longer…it was not the same tonight. And was soggy from the beans and you forgot my sauce :(

I went for lunch here. I really enjoyed it so much plus my waitress was excellent and also very welcoming. I had a wonderful BLT Sandwich with French Fries with a Shirley Temple Soda. I highly recommend it. I will definitely be back for more good food.
