    No food available after 9 PM on a Saturday? Really? I have money I will give you if you prepare food for me. Oh, well. At least they used to be good.

    I love this place, don't get me wrong. I've been coming here for more than just a few years. I always look forward to visiting when we come to visit family, as we've moved away. More lately, though, we've been unable to reach anytime when calling in out take out orders. Either it's busy, or no one answers the phone, even after letting it ring for minutes.

    The back door is a place I must stop at every time I'm in town. The fried cod sandwich is amazing. It's so large you could make another sandwich with what is hanging off of your bun. The batter isn't too thick or too thin it's just the right amount. Hubby and Mum always order the Fish salad which they love but I don't understand. I think you only get it if your from PA. It's a cold salad with hot fries and hot fish on top. Strange but it's a local favorite.

    Typical Western PA place. This is an old house turned into a bar and attached to some other odd looking building. Interior is tongue and groove pine with miscellanous crap hanging on the walls. We went on a Wednesday night and the restaurant part of the establishment was pretty full. My bf was bragging about the burgers. He was right, they are very good. He had a 3/4 pounder, I wimped out and had a quarter pounder. The fries were very hot and crispy, super good. They are supposed to be famous for their big fish sandwiches. Their beer menu is longer than the food menu. I think that's why my boyfriend wanted to go here. He always has the best ideas!

    Extensive beer list. Impressive and most of it in stock. Stopped by after golfing for some food and cold beer. Generous portions and the prices aren't bad. Worth a try.

    Best food in the area in my opinion. Portions are huge, good prices. Sandwiches, and salads are great here. Highly recommend!

    I've always been a fan of their food. I think it's very good, and the portions are generous. But why do they think it's ok to seat strangers at the same tables? I found that to be very uncomfortable. When we requested a change, we got moved to the high top tables with the stools. I'm not quite sure I will go back there unless it's in a big group and we get our OWN table, or until they change things back!

    Awesome food and beer selection. Yuengs and wings are always clutch. The only thing I hate about it is the layout. It's extremely hard to find a seat or place to stand.

    The hot wings are HOT and delicious. Craft beer on tap selection is good. Prices are good. They have a decent classic rock jukebox, 4 songs for $1. We will be back!

    Anything less than a five star review is from some pretentious butthead. More at food, service, beer, pricing. If you want more you're crazy.

    Beer here! Lots of choices, but the bartender made black and tan is wonderful. Bar food is good, not great. Food an adjunct to the homey atmosphere and bar choices.

    Decent bar food, huge portions at a good price. Burgers and wings are very good & your safe bet. Salads are unfortunately always wilted, they would be great considering the mix of ingredients. This place would be a four star if fries were hand cut and if iced tea & ranch dressing were home made. Huge beer list if you're into that, actually the largest I've seen anywhere. Service is good. Bring a sweater, always cold and they only sell short sleeve T shirts, no hoodies. Good for groups but you can't call ahead and they don't allow seating prior to your entire party being there.

    We drove out to New Brighton solely to try the wings at the Back Door Tavern based on rave reviews by a friend. Not sure how one would just stumble upon this place unless you lived in the area or had someone tell you about it. It's a neighborhood bar to be sure but perhaps just a tad better than most in that category. The menu is typical bar food with the fried appetizers like zucchini and mushrooms (never a bad thing!) and a wide selection of sandwiches and wraps. But we went for the wings. They were awesome. First of all, they are huge. They're not the whole wing (which are never my preference) but the size of these things will surprise you for sure. I had a hard time finishing my order of 12! I assure you thats unusual!!! And they're cheap!! At $6.95 a dozen? Great deal!!! A good selection of flavors including messy and dry rubs. The Rufus sauce is their hottest but not hot enough for me. A good flavor though. A pretty good draft beer selection but a huge disappointment for me that not one of the beers on tap was an IPA. Too many summer ales but I guess that's what their regular customers want. And it looks like they have a lot of those!! But I'm deducting a star for the omission. A great neighborhood bar. If I lived closer I'd be a regular. And I'd make sure there was an IPA always on tap!

    First of all, their fish is the best in beaver county. Hands down. Go on a Friday during lent, and expect an hour wait minimum. Rest of the food is pretty good. Not a fan or communal tables though. Do not order the philly steak. Made that mistake. Giant bun with a few chunks of decent beef. But it was 90% bun. They should either increase the price and add some meat, or use steak-ums. Very dissatisfied.

    Small and Crowded. REASON: Great Wings with some Unusual Homemade Wing Sauces. I tried the smokey blue cheese and found it to my liking. They have a HUGE selection of beers on their list and work your way though it and get your name on the "Wall of Fame." They pack folks in....so get there early!

    My experience here starts in the waiting room. The place is packed. People everywhere. It was about a 1/2 wait on a friday night. The waiting room is not my favorite. It's awkward to say the least. When it's packed, you get moved all around. You stand outside. You stand in a foyer. You stand inside in a hall. Servers rush past you carrying trays. It's such a high-traffic area. I was uncomfortable & wanted to leave. Glad that I didn't. Even though it was super-busy, the service was quick & friendly. The beer list is fairly populated, especially for the area. The burgers are tasty. I ordered the banana pepper burger. I quite liked it. Juicy. A bit of spice. Yum! Nothing fancy, by any means, but if you want cheap bar food for a relaxed night out, why not!?!?

    Great beer selection. My husband is determined to finish his "beer list" to get his name on the wall. I prefer to hang out on the bar side over the restaurant side. You have to be over 21 to sit on the bar side, so that keeps the kiddos out. Decent food too. Enjoyed the hot pepper cheese balls. Get the fried fish, it is excellent! Huge portion of delicious, greasy goodness. Yummm!

    The Backdoor serves typical American bar food (Pittsburgh style, natch) -- huge portions, French fries a-plenty, lots of meat. And the food's really good in this context; their Thursday night-only spicy chicken sandwich is delicious, and I hold their Reuben sets the bar for pub Reubens. They've added some variety in the past year, including wraps, but it's really just a variation on the same theme: big portions, lots of meat, fries. I think the restaurant really shines, though, with the beer list. It's not extensive -- you won't find overly weird or rare beers here. But the place has a really solid selection of American craft beers, good imports (besides the standard Harp/Bass/Guinness combo), and sure, domestics lite beers. The cherry on top: the beer is really inexpensive, especially when compared to big-city prices. Trappist beers for $6? I'm in. They have a beer list, I also really dig the German-style beer garden seating in the larger dining room. It adds an communal atmosphere, even if it is sometimes forced. The wait staff is also generally really nice, and some of them are quite knowledgeable about the beers.

    No IPA, Reds or Porters on tap. So so bar food, though cheap. Not worth a revisit.

    Add another burger to my wall. I came back to Pittsburgh with the head of The Back Door Burger, a 10 oz. Angus Beefbeast with swiss cheese, ham, and mushrooms, in tow. I added grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, and mayo. I think I got bacon on it also. With that many fixings, something's bound to get lost in the rush. It took me a while, but that's only because I was toying with it, savoring each gloriously juicy chomp, after flipping it over of course to get the upper hand early. One more monster...dead. Oh, what else did we have might you ask? We shared a crabcake and deep fried battered pickles first. The crabcake was a little overcooked and tiny. The fried pickles were incredible though. Ever since I saw Emeril Lagasse make a batch on his TV show, I have pined for them. They look like English Potato "Chips" and are served with a nice, mild horseradish dipping sauce that I suspect Back Door Tavern makes themselves. They damn near coat their entire menu with that amazing house beer batter. Dredge a lump of sod in it, deep fry it, and I'll eat it. My date got a Fish Salad that is your basic salad accompanied by french fries and their exemplary beer battered fish. Sports fans willl be beside themselves as autographed pictures of everyone from Hines Ward and Troy Polamalu to Arnold Palmer and Joe Namath (!) adorn the walls. They also have quite the beer selection and are way spacier than they appear to be. Each time you turn a corner, you find another dining area. Kay's sick of sandwiches, but I thank her for bringing me here anyway since once she told me about Back Door Tavern, I wouldn't shut up about it until we stopped in.

    Extensive beer menu with great prices. The food is bar food but better and priced well.

    Best selection of beer in the area. Great atmosphere. You can start a beer card and once you have every beer on the list you get your name on a plaque on the wall. Food is good, you get extremely large portions. Fun place to hang out!

    Great place with very good food!! Nice atmosphere. It is a neighborhood restaurant with homemade food that is delicious. Portions are generous. They have a very wide selection of beers. Very good fish, great wings & macaroni & cheese.

    Cheap, good food and large portions. Beer selection is good, and nicely priced as well. Friday night is the best night to go (and the only night to get the fish). But also the busiest time to go. If you hit the dinner rush, expect to wait 30-45 minutes for a table. Parking can be a bit of a pain as well. There is a lot, but unless you get lucky it will be full. There is on-street parking but watch out of the one way and dead ends. Also worth noting, they are not open very late and they are closed on Sundays. Get the lemon pepper fish and mac and cheese then thank me later.

    Still the BEST fish sandwich in Beaver County, PA! The worst item on their menu is the Iced Tea, it tastes like they used unfiltered water right out of the Beaver River to brew it.
