backyard burgers!

Everyone who had an opportunity to try it,everyone who actually wants to try it,who actually tried it and like it! Always welcome! Back in 1987, grocery store owner Lattimore M. Michael made a name for himself serving one-of-a-kind, homemade burgers in Cleveland, Mississippi. People drove from miles around to enjoy his tasty, grilled hamburgers. That same year, Michael founded Back Yard Burgers with the first BYB restaruant in Cleveland, MS. A year later, Back Yard Burgers opened our first franchised retaurant down the road in Clarksdale, MS. Back Yard Burgers Today Today, Back Yard Burgers owns and operates about 150 restaurants in 20 states, primarily in the Southeast. The company entered a new phase on November 9, 2007 with the merger/buy-out by BBAC, LLC and the recent re-location of company headquarters to Nashville, TN. Today, we're forging ahead with plans to build out our existing markets and provide the best burger experience around to hundreds more burger lovers. Dine in or Drive Thru In the early days, most BYBs were double drive-thru restaurants. Today, Back Yard Burger restaurants feature a full dining room with a self-service beverage center and the standard, single drive-thru.
