Great food, delightful menu, good service, and nice atmosphere. The only reason I don't give it a 5 is because the employees keep the temperature down very low and the central fan system on very high, with frigid air blowing relentlessly on you. So wear a parka in there, and not just in the winter months. We had to get our food to go last time because we were so miserable. I would guess they do that to keep the kitchen staff comfortable.

Great service. Food was out of this world! Had the H&H burger and hot wings as an appetizer. The wings came out fast and hot and some of the best wings I've had in a while. The burger was huge and tasty, great Frys. Happened to go on a day with perfect weather so we sat on the patio. Great little spot.

The food is good. The service is usually better. Apparently they have the best hamburgers in Payson, but I have not had the burger yet, next time

To go order. Hunter took my order, brought me a water with lemon (which most places don't do for to go orders). He was friendly and efficient in processing my order. Took my food home and everything was quite tasty. I will return because the food and service were both excellent.

This was my 2nd time at backwoods. We came back because we loved the food and the drink specials were good (and well made). The server was friendly and attentive. It's nothing fancy but you can tell it is a locals favorite place to go. Old, young, motorcycle lovers, to housewife's ... all crowds welcome which made for a fun atmosphere. If you are looking for a quick drink and great bite to eat I recommend

Stopped in looking for a meatball sub but it's no longer available so I went with the H&H Burger (bacon, BBQ sauce, crispy onions) which was very good and substantial - but messy to eat. My only regret was that I didn't slice it in half before eating to make it easier to handle. Steak fries were good. I sat out on the patio which was comfortable in the evening but is on the south side of the building so it'll get some sun. It does have both covered and uncovered tables. Service was fast and attentive, I was seated by my waiter, food came out quickly, etc. Beyond the burger I got a recommendation for the ACL Melt, so I may try that in the next few days while I'm in town.

Man this Dirty Verde is one of the top 5 burgers for me. The flavor was unbelievable. I have never tasted anything like it. The peppers on it make it taste like there is actually chili on your burger. We split it but it was soooooo good. The BBQ sauce (I'm not a BBQ gal) was delicious I was worried with the low reviews but we travel and eat a lot and it was good. I'll go back for sure. Ohhhh ONLY NEGATIVE pretty much everything is fried. We have been trying to eat better. Not really healthy choices here. A few salads

Thought we'd try something new in Payson after our hike. Really not sure why there's so many mixed reviews. There were two sides. One more of a bar section the other for one geared more for eating. Lots of tvs on both sides with a mixture of sports. Food was delicious and staff was attentive and friendly. Prices were not outrageous. Would return on another trip.
