Backyard is awesome. It's a small bar, seats about 40 people, mostly regulars with clich's but good attitudes towards newbies.
Door sign says proper dress but dress code in not really enforced, mainly enforced on guys with tanks tops(LOL). The women theere like guys who are nicely dressed. It's a Favorite of FBI, AFT, Defense contracts and high end FFX social people in FFX government, but all cool. Be careful what you say to people you don't know! They also have a great DJ, He plays a variety of tunes. Everything from country to hip hop. But the bar is rather small, not alot of seats. The night I was in there I had to stand the whole night. F that!
Seasoned bartenders who know how to cut poeple off with respect. The night I was there about two months ago, I had a run in with a fat guy named Peter and an old guy named Bill in glasses. They were a-hole's to me and my girlfriend. Her opinion, which she let both of them know, was "I guess those guys never f'ing get laid!" LOL
I think the owner is good buddies with a FFX cop because there were always one or two cops in the parking lot taking care of the place and making sure nothing happened in the parking lot.
We saw one car in the parking get busting for something??? My girlfriend enjoyed talking to the owner and she's is a "hardcore sexy woman, but "stop looking at my tits and say something intelligent type girl." She really enjoyed the bar, minus the two freaks.
When we left there were two FFX cop cars at the door. We stopped and chatted with both cops and they both had a great sense of humor. They were both, what I call "Andy Taylor southern cops."- They know who is a problem and they are going to put those type of people in jail for being a-holes! I have no problem that!
$40 buck for New years... even with open rail drinks, cheap. But, I'd rather pay $150 a couple with a hotel room, band, food, hats and a place to crash. I suggest DCevents.
