What People Are Saying About Yard House

Featured Review

The Scene – Breathtaking waterfront views take a back seat to the 110-foot oval bar that features ornate tap handles for more than 250 beers from around the globe. Steel, cement and wood accents give the place a modern industrial-chic ambience, with classic rock pumping out of the speakers and 14 television monitors peppered throughout. Large parties bring in the hustle and bustle as patrons traipse around the three main areas clutching the house specialty: beer by the yard, a 36-inch tall glass from which this hot spot takes its name. For a slower pace, relax on the spacious…

Greeat Location, LB.

by taconess at Citysearch

Id' have to agree w/most of the comments below. I had a very difficult time getting my waitress to come and simply check up on us. Also, I didn't understand why she insisted on holding a credit card, especially considering that none of the other yard house locations do such a thing. When I asked her for the card back so I knew what I would be paying and splitting w/my party she gave me a hard time. I don't think I'll be dinning there again any time soon.

  • Pros: Lots of great Beer
  • Cons: Not the best service

nice place

by billshumly at Citysearch

This is located in a very nice part in Long Beach. The locals are all very cool and the employees are nice as well. They were very helpful in assisting me choose a beer to drink. The beer selection was bananas! Ive never seen so many beers on tap in my life. I'm coming back real soon.

The cost of this establishment is too high for just ?fair? food and ?poor? service.

by 99Romo at Citysearch

I had heard that the Yard House had great food and was a fun place to eat. I went to two different locations on different dates. The first was Brea. The food was okay, just average. What was most frustrating was the service. We were celebrating a birthday. I wanted to treat my guests to drinks, but getting our server to come to our table was almost impossible. The next visit was to Long Beach. This time the food was disappointing. We ordered sliders. One had an adequate amount of beef. The others were pitiful. Basically, we were paying for bread and fries. Once again, the most difficult situation was getting attention from our server. As I looked around the room, I noticed I wasn?t the only one trying to get his attention. I don't blame the staff. The Yard House doesn't seem to plan adequately for the crowds in there establishments. That's it for me. I have decided the cost of this establishment is too high for just ?fair? food and ?poor? service.

Quantity over quality

by gooner2 at Citysearch

I didn't have any food here, so I can't comment on that. However, I did order two beers, one was clearly not what I ordered and the other was flat and tasteless. The real problem was the condescending waitress who lectured me about how Fuller?s ESB and London Pride look and taste exactly the same, even after I had explained that I had a case of each at home. But to their credit, they didn?t charge me for that mistake, and I didn?t bother to mention the replacement was flat and tasteless? didn?t want to hear another lecture.

  • Pros: Large amounts of on-tap beer
  • Cons: poor quality of that beer and service
