My first time to back 40 grill. I had the chicken tenders plate with jalapeño cream gravy and it was really delicious! The atmosphere was a little loud and the front door let in quite a chilly breeze, but other than that, it was a very nice experience. My friend had the fried fish and it was also very good.

Great place, great food, friendly welcoming staff

Food was okay but not very well seasoned. Very bland. Service was okay but not the best waitress would walk by multiple times leaving the drinks empty. Had to ask multiple times even when leaving the empty cup on the side of the table visible. As far as the restaurant they have a touch tunes box where you can play music but you’re not allowed to play anything besides country. They have all other genres blocked so that was a bit of a let down. Guess you could say it’s not a very inclusive place. Wouldn’t really recommend.

We ordered potato skins, they were awful! Our waitress ignores us & rolls her eyes when ordering. If everyone receives service like this, I can completely understand why they don't get more business

I was expecting a food place with a bar, not a bar with food. It was a Friday and there was a 5 cover for entertainment, not a big deal…..but they made it a big deal. In the middle of my meal, a member of staff, not my wait person, specifically and personally told me there was a 5 cover. About 15 minutes earlier the female staff member with a back 40 shirt on was seated at the bar drinking shots and goading another patron to get me to move to the bar seat next to him. I thought it was weird and I told them I was good where I was……eating my dinner at the time. It seemed deliberate and rude that she mentioned with some extra attitude that they would be adding a 5 cover charge to my bill if I didn’t leave in 30 minutes. Santa Fe chicken, mashed potatoes and a salad. Meh, pretty bland and definitely not worth the hassle. I will not be “back“.

My first time, went there for lunch. I had the fajita nachos, amazing flavor, loved the large tortilla halves and the dipping sides.
Went over the weekend, was excited because the food looked so good and price was great. Walked in and immediately felt unwelcome. We were a large-sigh group of less than 10, was told we could sit anywhere but had to put the tables together ourselves. Place was not even busy, slight help would have been great. Bartender (brunette girl) just stared no smile or anything, looked mad. Waitress (blonde girl) did the same. Waitress did warm up somewhat, but not very welcoming at all. Also food came out one by one over the course of maybe 15mins. Overall just a horrible and unpleasant experience.

Waited over an hour and a half for our food just for it to be completely burnt and terrible when it came out. My husbands chicken was burned entirely, my steak finger basket was COLD, and my daughters burger was cold in the middle. Won't be coming back and I don't recommend you do either.

We absolutely love this place! We always try to plan a trip to/through Lubbock to include an overnight on a Thursday, so we can catch Joe & Lori karaoke and the burger special. The food and service is great, and the Back 40 has an amazing group of friendly regulars that are fun to hang out with.

Hard to get the attention of wait staff, but they were busy. Took a few minutes just to be seated. Got the chicken special, which was tasty. The glassware needs to be beer-clean (it wasn't).
