Backyard Bar

Great food, drinks and ambience! They have a good happy hour special and close to the Fillmore Theater.

Woooah there the drinks we ordered were sweet and had us leaning like crackheads after a few sips. Barely made it back to our hotel without me slipping out of my TB chancleta . 3 stars because the kitchen was closed way too early in the day. It wasn't like we decided to get a drink after hours.

Thanks to Yelp, I found this little gem. Located behind the Marseilles hotel, you can order food to go and immediately walk out a few steps to the beach to enjoy your meal. The bartender was so kind. Didn't catch his name, but he had a beard and was just so chill. Great service! The grilled chicken sandwich was juicy and the patty was large! It included a thick slice of grilled pineapple. The cheese fries really hit the spot!

VEGAN REVIEW Ate here both at the bar & beach service. GREAT drinks. Friendly bartenders. As for the bar, fun vibe. We were there on a very busy weekend (hotel was hosting an event), so it was hard to flag down our server-- shout out to Amanda, the hardest working girl in South Beach! At the beach, I think it's just 1 server for the whole section! So again, our girl AMANDA was hustling. They do a pretty good take out set up for you. There are a handful of vegan options. Had the impossible burger & the avocado corn salad. The sweet potato fries are really good! If you are staying at the Marseilles, I definitely recommend hanging here at least 2 days-- one poolside, 1 beachside. So much amazing people watching, comfy seating & good music.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much when I ordered this sandwich on the beach. However, it was absolutely delicious! The chicken was grilled nicely and not dried out, and the pineapple, tomato and lettuce were all fresh. The Backyard itself is a very cute space with tables where you can order and dine. I opted for beachside service, which took a bit of time, but the food was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised, and I'd recommend checking it out if you're in South Beach.

A hidden gem. The ambiance was super nice with the pools, tv with sports on, and the games available. We got two drinks which were delicious and fries. Not very crowded and vibes were chill, no crazy party college kids. Let's keep it to that way!!! Bravo!

Oh I love this place. We stopped in for food and drink on our way to South Beach as we waited on friends to arrive. It is located behind Marseilles Beachfront Hotel and has a unique vibe. Although it is a bar it has some non traditional bar fare. I had the Crab sliders nd Truffle fries both were great. We also had wings at the table and BBQ chicken pizza. Only con was that the sweet potato fries were not seasoned and not really very warm. Service was good and drinks were very cold and refreshing. There is also a pools area and cabana type rooms.

You guys are awesome and Aaron was Phenomenal. Fun place to hang out. Great drinks! Definitely will be back!

The scummy behavior of the employees of this business would have resulted in it shutting down a long time ago if it were situated in a smaller town. Unfortunately, the workers of this establishment are well aware of the fact that no matter what they do they will always receive an endless supply of tourists, giving them carte blanche to be as insolent and audaciously greedy as possible. I had been at an event there where it was an open bar, as I was getting ready to head out I asked the bar tender for a bottle of water, they were just beginning to close and put things away. When I asked, they said no with a passive aggressive and dismissive behavior - without reason or explanation - and quickly hauled the bar cart back to the bar. I wasn't sure if they had understood the question since they barely spoke a word of English, I reconvened with them near the bar and asked again, pointing at the water bottles. Again they responded no, and this time irritatedly commanded me to go to the bar. This was followed by an "Oh my god" which they thought I hadn't heard. They then proceeded to quickly remove the pack of water bottles and quickly stash them in the kitchen fearful that I might steal one, not even caring about the fact that if I were actually a thief I could have just grabbed the bottle of wine that was at the top of the cart. I went to the bar, waited ten minutes only for the bar tender to tell me with a smirk on his face that what was less than a couple minutes ago a free bottle of water, was now selling for $4.00.

Relaxing and don't break your ear drums from the music. love the relaxing places to sit.
