The Backyard · Social Club ·
Regulars call the pizza the best in Fresno and the wall of taps runs thirty rotating California beers, ice cold. Out back it is lush, green and loud in the best way: live music every single night, shuffleboard, ping pong, arcade cabinets, fire pits, and a cat who runs the place. Come once and it becomes your spot.
Live music
Local artists on the stage, taps pouring, fire pits going.
The Lineup
Same nights, every week. The bands rotate, the rituals do not.
Meet Miss Turkey
She came with the old bar. Took her a while to trust us, and now she runs the place. Blue eyes, strong opinions, zero fear of dogs. You will know her mood the second you see her.
- Favorite office: the upstairs couch. Look before you sit.
- Second office: the arcade room. Third: the dirt.
- Not pregnant. Just very well fed by all of you.
- Accepts affection on her schedule, not yours.
Regulars measure a good night here two ways: how the band sounded, and whether Turkey chose your table. One of those you can influence with snacks. She will gladly teach you the local art of slowing down.
Food & Taps
Local first. The board turns over constantly, so what poured last week is probably gone. Seltzers and non alcoholic options always on hand.
"A true gem. The stylish interior and fun game options make it a great hangout, but the highlight is the beautiful backyard."

Play the Backyard
The stage runs every single night, and most of the names on it are from right here in the Valley. A lot of people would never hear you otherwise. That is the whole point of this place.
Submission received
We listen to everything that comes in. If it fits a night, you will hear from us.
coffee before the taps
Monstera Coffee Studio runs the morning out of the same old farmhouse. Loose leaf chai, matcha, a banana latte people drive across town for, and bagels. Same backyard, softer soundtrack.
