Backseat Bar and Grill - Winchester, Virginia

Im in town for work and this place came highly recommend from a coworker. We went in for “Wing Night”.

This place did not disappoint, we had boom boom shrimp appetizer- wow! The shrimp were breaded and fried perfectly and the boom boom sauce was delicious and have a good spice level to them.

For wings we had: Hot Honey, Carolina Gold, and Garlic Butter. The wings were fresh and cooked perfectly. The sauces were all very good too.

The restaurant was clean and the staff were great.

If you are in Winchester, I highly recommend this place for some really good wings!

Had some great wings at Backseat before one of the micro wrestling event. All wings were great. Bone in and boneless - we had buffalo, Asian, and a bbq. I’m partial to buffalo but they were all great. Waitress kept our cups full of ice cold Coke and sweet tea.

Fun bar/ restaurant open early for breakfast and drinks. Staff was wonderful. They have covered seating outside in front of the building. Old big boy Themed.

My wife and I stopped in for lunch today. It was not busy at all. Our waitress sat us and took our drink orders. Which was crazy because you only get 1 refill. We haven't been anywhere in years where you only get 1 refill. Anyway, my wife ordered the fish and I ordered the "whole hog." The waitress wasn't very friendly at all. She returned 5 minutes later to tell me they didn't have the ingredients for the whole hog so I needed to order something else. As I'm reading the menu she is sighing and tapping her foot so I rush to order the "smash burger." Food comes out maybe 15 minutes later. The server basically tosses my plate on the table and it makes a loud bang. She doesn't ask if we need anything or if we are ok. She just drops the food off and takes off. The burger was cold and the thinnest burger I've ever had apart from a McDonalds cheese burger. The fries were room temperature as well. I was so frustrated I had forgotten to take a picture of the food before I started eating it. We needed more napkins and I would've liked a refill on my lemonade but the waitress never came back to ask us until we were finished our food. She came back, took my plate and said do you need another drink? I said no thank you our meals are done now. She takes our plates, puts the receipt on the table and stands there obviously inconvenienced. This was our first time at this place so my wife asks "do I pay you now?" And she simply just says "yeah" like we were supposed to know. She brings my wife's card back and we leave. The only reason this place didn't get a 1 star is because the atmosphere was nice and the other servers and bartender were all really nice. I actually told my wife I was jealous we didn't get the other waitress because she was so nice with her customers. My wife said her food was good. Sadly I believe this will be our first and only time going here. Might give it a try in the future but will be requesting a different server.

It was my first time in and the food was absolutely delicious!
But the waitress wasn't the best. She was rude, didn't greet us, didn't check on us till we were done eating. I would have understood if she was busy, but she had one other table at the time. I want to come back, but will give it some time before I do. Your waitstaff is a big part of your business and can really make or break a first timer's experience. Everyone has bad days, so maybe we caught her on one of them.

Stopped here for an early Dinner on our way from Long Island, NY. to Knoxville TN. We were a little skeptical when we saw the Bob's BIG Boy mascot outside, but when we got inside we were delighted ! The staff were really nice, answered our miriad of questions about food options. One of the customers sitting near is had just recieved their order and it looked delicious, so we asked what it was; it was breaded fried Haddock, I ordered it with a choice of 2 sides mac & Cheese and Apple sauce. It was better than expected, 2 large pieces. I was stuffed when I finished l, which was not expected when having white fish. My Fiance had the Smash Burger, and onion rings.
They also have an outside area with a good amount of seating. The staff and clientele were all friends and talkative, could have stayed all night, but we had to get back on I-81 to finish the second half of our trip. We will definitely stop in again....

Stopped in while out of town and got lunch. Lyndsey at the bar was great, very bubbly personality and made a great drink! The food was great and so was the music that was on! Highly recommend.

Fun restaurant! Like a traditional diner. I had the chicken salad which was good. Another person in my group had a burger but there was a bug in the lettuce.. our waitress didn't come back so she went to the waitress and showed it. After 10 minutes she got a new burger. Took a while. Service was a bit slow anyway. Entrance of the restaurant is on the left, was a bit confusing..
