Customer Reviews

I spotted Back Alley Barn by accident while driving through and decided to stop in -- best decision! The mac bites were hands down the best I've ever had. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the vibe is amazing: relaxed, fun, and inviting. I'll definitely be back, and next time I'm bringing my Great Dane next time since they're dog-friendly. Such a great find, you won't regret visiting!

I did take a bite or 2 before i took the pic but that should tell you how good the food was. The waitress was a nice lady. The place is a hole in the wall with a relaxed environment.

We just happen to notice this looking between buildings, we walked up and sat in the Adirondack chairs and the tiny grass area, waitress came right out to take our drink orders. So perfect! Felt like a lucky find! It was awesome to hang out and watch the kids play while listening to the band play. Great unique cocktails! Can't wait to come back.

It could not have been better. The food and apps were exactly as we expected, the burgers surpassed expectations, the salad was perfect and the specialty drinks and beer was also perfect or better than expected. We only wish they had real brewed ice tea including unsweetened ice tea.
