Backyard Bird Chicken & Donuts

Talea Colvin

Tried something new. Been wanting to try this place for a while now and glad I finally did. Everything was wonderful including the service. I'm not sure I'd the owner or manager was working the front but he was super nice and attentive. Food was great! Lots of flavor and loved the lemonade and homemade sauce. Fries were great as well as all the sides I tried. Portions were big and just right. Not too little or too much. Have to come back and try some chicken sandwiches or doughnuts!! Props!! Love the environment as well.

Incredibly good chicken, great tasting waffle fries, homemade sauces, natural sodas on fountain, and most of all the best customer service you'll find anywhere! Finish your meal off with a very tasty homemade donut or a dish of uniquely flavored soft serve ice cream. Prices are slightly higher than what you'd expect from say a burger joint, but super reasonable. Highly recommend!

We finally got around to trying Backyard Bird for weekend brunch. We ordered two of their breakfast sandwiches (the Standard and the Hangover) as well as four of their donuts (cinnamon sugar, chocolate glazed, vanilla glazed, and their July specialty flavor - strawberry glazed with cream and blueberries). Overall takeaway: Everything was good...not great. Donut note - if you prefer airy raised donuts, this place is NOT for you. Their raised donuts are very heavy and cakey plus they have an odd lemon undertone. Their breakfast sandwiches are also just OK. I'm glad we tried Backyard for brunch, however, I certainly wouldn't go out of my way for it again.

The chicken breast sandwich was a little dry. Wife's chicken thigh sandwich was good, however that and the chicken we brought home were on the "black side" instead of a golden brown. This also applied to the cherry pies (and greasy). It looks to me like they need to change the frying oil more often or fry them less time. Also, you need to 1. Call your order in, even if you are eating there. Everything including the pies are made to order. Or 2. Have a lot of patience. One more thing, you need to check their open/close times before you go....they are different on different days and closed on Monday and Tuesday. Two wings one has lots of meat the other has anorexia....how do two people decide who gets the good one??? See photo..... We called our order in 15 minutes prior to opening, drove from west Ft Collins past the interstate and 1/2 hour later when we arrived, it still wasn’t ready. First and last visit.
