sadly sucks by LeonardParks on 1/31/2003 via Citysearch
I felt the food in this place was far below standard. McDnolds make's a better burger than they do. If you want a really good hamburger, go to McBowl in Liberty Mo. While it is a bowling alley, the hamburgers are to die for.

cold chow by allisunra on 1/14/2003 via Citysearch
Brought two kids and a visiting grandma here. Thought eating outside under the cute lil umbrella tables would be a kick. Well...it took quite a while. The burgers were cold, the serving crew uninterested(apparently had other interests in…

Back Yard's the BEST! by natalie_reed1996 on 1/5/2003 via Citysearch
I don't think you can go wrong with back yard burger. They taste like mom would have made them. And the waffle fries are outstanding! I'm going to go get one right now! Below they made me rank the ambiance.... for a drive through…

Just another fast-food chain by dclayross on 12/6/2002 via Citysearch
This is where you go if McDonald's is not convenient. The quality is par with Hardee's this is not the place to go for a "burger experience" this is where you go if you are out for lunch, you have 10 minutes, and $5.00. The burgers are…

Formerly Great Burgers by racambab on 11/1/2002 via Citysearch
When BB first opened they were GREAT. Nowdays the burgers are cold, apparently pre-cooked and this is apparently more so at their other locations. The last burgers we have had were all cold and very much dried-out indicating pre-cooked…

Not my favorite spot. by chellbell73 on 10/25/2002 via Citysearch
Never been to the Independence one, but have visited the Olathe & Shawnee ones. Can't say I'm overly impressed with the burgers - they always seem on the dry side. If you love your burgers very well done, then this is the place for you. …

Drive-in that slams the rest! by kenscole on 10/25/2002 via Citysearch
Why do McDonalds, BK, or Wendy's, when Backyard Burger is so much better, for marginally more money? Go for the lemonade - some of the best I've had anywhere!

Backyard Trash by Jimbob53 on 10/3/2002 via Citysearch
I haven't been to the BYB in Independence, but I have been to the one in Mission and K.C. North, near Liberty. The North unit is a disaster. It never has gotten out of the "opening phase" of bumbling service and poorly prepared items. …

Black Hard Burgers by lisa443 on 8/30/2002 via Citysearch
I haven't ever like this restaurant, their food is always burned and very high priced for drive-thru.

tastiest burgers anywhere!!! by jgarrison on 8/11/2002 via Citysearch
I have been all over the u.s. and let me tell you: this place is MM-MM-GOOD!!! If you ever want a burger that tastes like it just came off the grill from your backyard (maybe better), and you want it in fast food record time, this is the…

'scuse me, while I finish this burger. by mike_finley on 8/8/2002 via Citysearch
Burgers are great! When you don't have the time or the inclination to cook out, but want that cooked in your own grill flavor, this is the place. Prices are a little higher, but worth if a GOOD BURGER is what you want.

Burgermania by atcwhiz on 8/8/2002 via Citysearch
Best fast food burgers in town, bar none. A little too pricey for fast food. Cobblers are great, but they need to offer all flavors every day, instead of one flavor per day.

Just Like Dad Used to Make by jlenzinger on 8/8/2002 via Citysearch
These's burgers really are just like Dad used to make on the grill at home. The best! Chicken sandwiches and strawberry shakes are awesome too! You just can't go wrong with Backyard Burger. Food is hot, fresh, good, and service is fast.

Best Burgers - period by perryo on 8/8/2002 via Citysearch
These are the best tasting burgers around. They use black angus beef to give that fresh taste and the flamed cooked gives it that char taste.

Tastes like a burger should. by missnnholden on 8/2/2002 via Citysearch
Best burgers in town. Tastes like I grilled them on my own grill.
