Yard House is hands down my favorite place to meet for happy hour after work with my colleagues. When I moved into the area a few years ago, they had already designated the Yard House as their favorite happy hour spot, so I tagged along. I can still remember my first adventure to Yard House. Armed with the name and Google maps, I ended up about 30 minutes away from the designated rendezvous. (For those of you new to Las Vegas, there’s a few Yard House locations here in town.)
We’ve done every type of meetup at Yard House: one on one, a group of friends, our entire department, and company wide functions. An enjoyable experience every time.
Yard House Happy Hour Food
The best part about Yard House’s Happy Hour is the entrees. We usually order several choices from the wide selection of appetizers and dishes priced from $5 to $8. Then everyone just shares from the middle of the table. I’m usually fairly conservative in my food choices, but eating this way gives you the opportunity to try out new dishes without wasting your hard-earned cash (someone will eat it!).
For example, I personally would have never ordered Chicken Garlic Noodles, but a friend loves them and let me try them out. Delicious!
Yard House also offers a wide range of options for vegetarian and vegan diets by incorporating Gardein protein choices for many of their dishes.
“Gardein is a sustainable protein brand that delivers the great taste, texture and nutrition of meat with no cholesterol, less fat and calories. Gardein makes the widest variety of award-winning meatless meals and snacks that are good for you and good for the planet. These meatless wonders are completely vegan made from non-GMO soy and wheat, ancient grains and veggies. A range of gluten free products are also available.”
So if you’re like me and are working off some extra holiday insulation, this is a great option.
(Secretly, boneless chicken wings, a great bar staple, are still my number 1 favorite!) The pizzas at Yard House are also amazing and you can get them for under $10.
Yard House Happy Hour Drinks
The Yard House happy hour offers a number of discounts for thirsts on a budget. They offer $1 off all domestic pints and well drinks. If you choose a domestic half-yard, beer cocktail, or craft/import pint you get a $2 discount.
For martini-lovers, Yard House offers $3 off during happy hour. And for those of you with refined tastes and insatiable thirsts, craft & import half-yards are $4 off during happy hour.
Beer lovers will appreciate the 100+ beers on tap as well as the Yard House Chalkboard Series, which offers a unique draft and seasonal beer offerings each month.
Yard House also won the award for “Best Happy Hour” from Best of Summerlin for the great beer selection and happy hour menu.
A Happy Place
Whether you are looking for a place to meetup with you coworkers after a long day at the office, or just a place to meetup with friend or two and catch the game, the Happy Hour at Yard House is a great choice. With the huge selection of beers and a menu that caters to a wide spectrum of food preferences, everyone can find something to love.
