The Backyard Grille is a bar and restaurant owned by the Cornell family. It has been open since January 30, 2018, and it has been growing in popularity ever since it has opened.
They have a wide variety of foods and drinks for everyone to enjoy.
The Backyard Grille, on the corner of Highway 66 and Highway J in Custer Wisconsin, has a wide variety of food including burgers and sandwiches that are affordable and delicious. They also make homemade pizzas and have daily specials like Friday fish fries and Sunday chicken dinners.
Noah Jung, a student of Stevens Point Area Senior High (SPASH), and an employee of the Backyard Grille said, “It’s just a fun place to work and a fun place to be. Everyone is always having a good time and the food is incredible.”
The Backyard Grille specializes in their burgers, which burgers are “fresh, never frozen, hand pattied burgers, cooked to your preference,” Jung said. Jung’s personal preference is the homemade pizza, but he also likes to have the fish fry on Friday which is the number one ordered that night. Some customers come every Friday just for the fish fry dinner.
The Backyard Grille also caters food for events and accepts take orders over the phone. They are open from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Wednesday through Monday, but on Sundays they open at 10 a.m.
For entertainment, you can watch mainly sports on their large flat-screen TV’s or play pool on their pool tables.

It is so cool to see new dinners opening up and being this successful. I know that I personally turn to fast food restaurants too much so it is great to learn about locations like this. Your article was really informative and made me want to check out The Backyard Grille.

I have been there once before there fish fry, but I didn’t know that it has only been open for two years. It’s also cool that the pizza and burgers are homemade.

Bar & Grill style restaurants are usually pretty good, especially when they’re family owned. This was pretty informative, although you could have explained the other foods they have a bit better.

Seems like I should go sometime although it looks like it will be a little crowded like any good bar. There is some pretty nice looking decor, and the bar is nicely arranged an looks very spacious compared to the bar at the Elks lodge where you need to move in single file with only one exit.

It looks like an incredible place to be when you got nothing going on. Everything about this experience makes it sounds very nice.
