Fantastic! I'm mad I haven't gone here sooner. The space is cute and the staff was very friendly. Loved the cocktails and the mushroom kale sandwich was oh so yummy.

The food here is so good, it is like “gourmet” but down to earth. I love all of their options and I have not had a dish that I do not like

I hate writing bad reviews but unfortunately I need to mark this as a spot a place to avoid. Service started out great and we ordered the Taco Dorado's - they are essentially a mushy pulled chicken inside a fried tortilla shell (the lettuce and tomatos on the top are essential to make palatable) - we ordered a few beers and our server was great about giving us tasters to find what we wanted from the variety of local beers (beers were delicious)...
Now for when everything really went down hill. The Fish and chips is horrible, greasy with raw batter on all 3 pieces, I've reviewed dozens of fish and chips and these are some of the worst due to this issues. The chips were skinny limp fries with no seasoning, but if there was one decent thing, it was the pickled cabbage on the side. The Sopes Chili Verde looked great but was lacking in flavor and half the pork was the chewy fatty portion that chews more like gum.
For $90 I would say the price is overwhelming for what you're paying.
Side note, as I'm writing this, my stomach is starting to turn... Potentially undercooked food could make for a fun weekend.

I took my parents to the yard, and the waitress with red hair should be in the running for the best waitress of all time. She was so kind and accommodating with my mom’s food sensitivities, and stopped by our table enough to be helpful, usually with a witty line. She made our experience excellent.
Lovely spot with good food and drinks. Indoor and outdoor seating. You used to be able to park in the lot next door, but the salon there took ALL of the spots. Which is ridiculous if you ask me. But Yard cafe is great.

Don't come here if you are hungry. The portions are very small.
The cod/quinoa bowl was sold out so I tried the orange chipotle salad with spicy shrimp per staff’s recommendation. Hot damn! Five stars!! It was so delicious and surprising. I loved all of the different elements together from the tang of the pickled shallots to the citrus and touch of heat from the juicy perfectly cooked shrimp. I am 100% coming back for this salad! I still have to try the original dish at some point, but it’s going to be hard to move away from this one. Side note, the pineapple habanero salsa is so good and the whole outdoor bar area is dog friendly. Service was top notch and we can’t wait to come back!

Hubby had the chicken sandwich which was HUGE! I had the smash burger and it was delicious!
