Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Yard House runs a beverage program built on breadth. The cocktail list spreads across margaritas, martinis, mules, low-proof cocktails, and old fashioneds, with named pours like the Grand Patrón Margarita and Pink Dragon. Draft beer exceeds 100 selections from local and imported breweries, and the menu notes availability while supplies last. A separate zero proof section covers mocktails and packaged options. The program is not built on rare bottles or niche producers; it is built on giving a group enough choices to find something without a second thought.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Grand Patrón Margarita or the Pink Dragon, both listed under margaritas and available for dine-in service. If you prefer something lighter, the low-proof cocktail section is crafted with low ABV spirits. For beer, ask about the draft list of over 100 selections from local and imported breweries.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Groups looking for a wide draft beer selection with many non-IPA options and foreign beers, and anyone who wants a cocktail list with enough range to cover different preferences at one table.

- Cocktails are listed from $10.99 for the House Margarita to $14.49 for the Pink Dragon. The Grand Patrón Margarita is $13.99, the Picante Margarita is $13.79, and the Espresso Martini is $13.79. Vitamin Water is $3.79 under zero proof beverages.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The draft beer selection is the headline: over 100 beers from local and imported breweries, with a menu note that draft beers are available while supplies last. The cocktail menu is organized into multiple sections, including a low-proof category crafted with low ABV spirits, rather than a single short list.
