I have zero idea why my 8 year old became obsessed with eating here. He said the bacon mac and cheese was really good. I think he secretly wanted to come back for brunch for the fried chicken and waffles. What drew me here was the smack yo mama grilled cheese and just the variety of grilled cheese sandwiches on the menu. Service was good, food was alright. Lots of options and a good place to take kids to eat.

Was craving some pierogies in a casual lunch atmosphere and The Yard hit the spot. I went mid-afternoon, like I usually do. The establishment was mostly empty. Maybe 10 people or so, inside. I opted to sit at the bar and placed my order for the pierogies. I also got their "Imperial Swine" flatbread pizza. The 2 ladies working behind the bar were really nice. Attentive. Both food items came out together. The pierogies were great. Cooked perfectly. The right temperature when they came out. And the dusting of cajun seasoning added a nice touch. Not overpowering at all. The flatbread was equally good. No skimping on the ingredients. And cooked perfectly. Definitely not too much bbq sauce. I had a few slices leftover that I saved for leftovers and it was still good, cold. And, to top off the experience. A fight almost took place. 2 dudes mouthing off at one another and they actually took it outside. But I really don't think anything happened. It was still a great experience.

Food was excellent--I had the always sunny in Philadelphia grilled cheese for $15.99 and I was very happy it came out looking great and even overflowing with meat and toppings! I'm always a sucker for waffle cut sweet potato fries, but they were a tad overdone, but I still at them anyways. Service could have been slightly better--got seated immediately after walking in, but it took about 5-10 minutes for anyone to greet us(but waters were brought with that initial visit, which was a plus). Our waitress was very happy and friendly. We put food In immediately since we had time to look, and food came out(by a food runner I'm assuming because it wasn't our waitress)pretty fast. Our friend had an issue with his side, but the food runner quickly fixed that and even after all that, it took our waitress some time to come check on us the first time since food being delivered to see if we needed anything. We needed some sauces and another soup cup because when we sent back our friend's food for his side to be fixed, it was forgotten in the kitchen, but she brought everything pretty quick. Once we were about half way through our meal, my fiancé ran out of water and he typically won't continue to eat until he has another water due to health reasons. So we looked around so he could get another one and noticed our waitress casually talking to another girl across the restaurant and she wasn't facing us for us to flag her down. This went on for about 5-10 minutes and then she saw us looking around for her and brought him another water. It then took awhile for her to come back to check if we needed boxes, as she was talking to the other girl again and she didn't even ask how the checks were being separated until after the boxes were brought back, which could have been done in one trip if she would have asked when asking for boxes. Checks were then dropped off, and once again, several minutes passed until she came back to run our card/cash. We understand we aren't her only table(she looked to have maybe 3-4?), but in the time she took to talk to her friend, she could have been checking on her tables. Overall, she was VERY nice and even remembered our orders by memory, BUT wasn't the fastest and seemed to be distracted at times. That WILL NOT stop us from coming back or from having her as our waitress. We loved our food and time there, we just wished things were a bit faster and less distractions. Lastly, our group wishes it wasn't so crammed in there. We all felt like we were sitting right with the strangers eating on both sides of us, it was that close. Overall, we hope to come back soon!

Food is great. Super heavy- like what you’d expect of a massive grilled cheese and some fried potato product.It is loud inside. Probably not a place to go if you want a conversation.Not really kid friendly. More bat like.

Killer food, good atmosphere, and service. Large menu with heart portions. Hearty beer selections and attentive bartenders. I will be back. I almost went back for a second visit tonight but wanted to try as many different places as I could on my brief trip to Pittsburgh.

Went there for dinner on Sat night. Wait was only a few minutes, even though there was a pirates game and pens game that night. Food was PERFECT. There was 4 of us, we had pretzels and Buffalo dip for appetizers. Amazing. The tomato soup was also delicious.

This is the place you should go for bottomless mimosas and brunch!
Good good. Super service even when crowded. Reasonable price and a good selection of draft beer.

Honestly, everything about our Easter brunch was fantastic. The food was delicious. Our waitress was friendly and helpful and prompt. I loved the lively atmosphere. Bottomless mimosas are also hard to beat!

Stopped in for a few beers in the afternoon. Great bartender. Didn't order food. Looks like it could be a college bar at night but was chill during the day
