Great golf experience (even in winter). ⛳ I like this place better than Top Golf because the facilities are just as good but the price is much better. We booked a bay for 3hr for a team event. Food was also better than I expected. I ordered the salmon bowl for lunch, and it was quite filling and flavorful. Service though was spotty/slow. They seemed understaffed, but it may have been due to the holiday season and there were a couple of groups/team events there. PRO TIP: Dress warmly if it's cold because the heaters only do so much.

Bethany with Offline - Go for the mac and cheese, the French fries, and the corn ribs. I've never had corn ribs before, but these were fantastic. They were so buttery it was remiscent of popcorn and I dislike corn regularly. The Mac and Cheese was creamy and a little spicy. Get it as a standalone side if you want to try it, instead of subbing it for your entree side. The French fries were perfectly crispy and piping hot.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic experience at Back 9! I rolled up on a busy Saturday evening with zero reservation (my fault!) and was honestly expecting to be turned away, especially since they had multiple large group events going on. To my surprise, the staff was incredibly welcoming and told me they could squeeze me in within 20 minutes. That alone already had me impressed. While I waited, I posted up at the upstairs (2nd floor) bar and was lucky enough to be served by the beautiful and awesome bartender Lily — hands down one of the friendliest and most talented bartenders I’ve ever met. She made me an Old Fashioned that was legitimately one of the best I’ve ever had: perfectly balanced, great bourbon selection, and just the right touch of orange and cherry. It was so good I almost didn’t care how long the wait was! Once my bay opened, the bay was clean, the tech worked flawlessly, and I ended up staying way longer than planned. The vibe is fun, the staff is genuinely hospitable, and they clearly know how to handle a packed house without making anyone feel rushed or forgotten. Back 9 has instantly become my go-to spot. Huge shoutout to Lily and the whole team for turning a walk-in into a 10/10 night. Highly, highly recommend!

We visited on Labor Day. The Facebook specials that were advertised were not honored, which was disappointing. The food runner seemed annoyed, and our server—while doing their best—was clearly stretched too thin. To make matters worse, a table broke in the bay next to us, and the same server had to handle that issue along with all their other guests. Where was the manager during all of this? On the positive side, the games were fun since we could switch them up. We enjoyed finishing our food and drinks out on the patio and had a good time playing cornhole and Jenga.

Crista was AMAZING. She made my birthday celebration very pleasurable. The food was tasty and hot. They offer mocktails. I received a free scoop of ice cream for my birthday. I really enjoyed the different golf courses. You're not charged the one time fee per guest if you've never been before. There wasn't anything that could've been done better.
