It's a great place to take family and friends to play games, have a few drinks, and participate in our many events we have throughout the week. The Backyard has only been open for a year, but it boasts an undeniable presence in Downtown Waco. The owners dreamed of creating a unique entertainment experience, and that's exactly what they've done. Most nights you'll find musicians performing on the rustic stage or a game playing on the giant video projector. During the day guests enjoy a quiet meal beneath the shade of the oak trees. “We want to take a different approach,†Brown said. “You won't find this environment anywhere else in Waco.†The Backyard has the “Austin or Dallas feel,†Cox added. “But it's right here in Waco.†“We've got everything you would want here,†Brown said. “You have music, but it's also a peaceful place to study. And we have a really good restaurant.†The owners poured their hearts into building The Backyard, but they also relied on the community's help and advice. “We called in a lot of favors,†Cox said. “It was a community effort.†In their second year of business, the owners of The Backyard hope to enhance the customer experience. They refuse to become complacent, like other bars, “who just leave the light on,†Brown said. But their focus on community will remain the same. “Our goal is to have corporate consistency with the community vibe,†Brown said.
