Tonight was not my first night at the Backyard Ale House, but it WAS my first time having their food. The sandwich I had was REALLY good...like to the point where i had to put down my sandwich and text my friends and tell them how good it was. I had the Midtown Melt and the Strawberry Lager. The service was really quick as well. My friend and I went to the Backyard Ale House around 6:30pm before we saw Kinky Boots just around the corner at the Scranton Cultural Center at 8pm. We were in and out in about an hour give or take, without even telling them we were in a semi-rush to catch the show. We didn’t need to. The service was THAT good. I’ll definitely be back :
This is my 3rd time here for Sunday Brunch and I am not disappointed. The omelette does not even fit on the plate and the home fries are once again perfect. The Bloodys are the best around. I had three. The atmosphere is clean, comfortable, and relaxed. The service is friendly and attentive. You don't get one waiter you get a Team. They all work together making sure your desires are met. Alternatives were suggested and made to accommodate the uncommon food allergy of my friend. Joe remembered me from my prior visit and offered the same beverage. I thought this was remarkable. Kuddos to Zack and Allie as well.
I attended the Electric City Best of 2017 award ceremony at Backyard Ale House last night, and it was a fantastic experience. They served a buffet for all the winners and guests that included pasta, pizza, and wings. Although I usually don't like wings, I was feeling quite hungry, so I decided to try some. I ended up regretting not taking more because they were absolutely delicious! They weren't too spicy, and the sauce had a mild flavor that I really enjoyed. The pizza was also excellent. I would definitely make an effort to dine there again. Five stars!
This place has been a mandatory stop for the past 3 years. I drove from Florida up to Connecticut, and made sure I stopped at Backyard just to be in this little slice of Heaven. The beer list is endless, the food is superb, the staff is knowledgeable and extremely friendly, and the atmosphere reminds me of returning home. This location is very hospitable, and I've recommended it to everyone I come across if they're traveling within the Scranton area.

Stopped for a few drinks with our daughter, I wanted a Smirnoff Ice Raspberry as my second drink, asked for Smirnoff Raspberry, got Vodka and water on ice! My fault, third drink got my bottle, bartender noticed, apologized, deducted second drink! Didn’t have to, mistake was my fault! Very good atmosphere.
I'm not sure why this restaurant received some negative reviews, but Debbie and I had a wonderful experience. The service was impeccable, and the food was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend the Banjo Pig; it was so generous that I couldn't finish it all. We will definitely be returning!
We had an excellent server named Amber. The service was exceptional, the timing for bringing out the food was perfect, and the dishes were amazing! I highly recommend this restaurant if you're in Scranton, PA.
Awesome vibe inside. Great selection of beers, drinks, and nice pub food menu. Good bbq which is smoked daily. Fantastic onion soup. Hot garlic wing sauce was good. Great service.
