Love this place!! Been here twice now after a hike at Stone Mountain. Outdoor seating only but they have tons of great options and it’s shaded! Music but it’s not too loud. They have love music often as well. Beers are delicious and servers are always friendly. They have a few fire pits and have had a good truck both times I’ve been here. Highly recommend!

We found this while wandering around Elkin. It wasn’t open the day we stopped by, but got to speak with Donald about what all they have there. Live music, food trucks, clean restrooms, shady areas, probably dog and kid friendly, local beer on tap. Elkins has a social district, but this place will not allow outside drinks from other establishments. This is in a very walkable area and free street parking and lots neat by. Can’t wait to visit again when they are open on the weekends.

Visiting Elkin for the first time. Thought the rain was going to stop us from checking out The Rail Yard … but we found a break in the rain, and they were open! Cool atmosphere, in casual backyard environment. It’s like visiting that cool friend with backyard you always wanted!
Met owners Virgil and Mitzi along with other beer tenders. Great local group with a lot of beer knowledge. Very inviting atmosphere. You gotta check this place out! Thanks for a wonderful experience. Cheers!

Fantastic little beer garden! Really more of a large, shaded yard of one of your friends. They have great yard furniture. Good trucks rotate. Good beer selection. The employees are super nice. Will help you find something that you will like. This is when I have a new favorite hangout spots in Elkin. The shading trees make everything hear cooler than the weather says.

This is a really convenient place and the beer selection is wonderful. The red wine selection could be better. Absolutely love the location and it’s great with the constant live music. Always a food truck on premise and there’s a great restaurant really close by. If you are up this way you should not miss it……

A power outage has us looking for an open place for a beer. These happy people kept the beer flowing! It’s been a long time since I used cash, but they actually knew how to make change!

Really great place to go in Elkin to relax, with drinks, live music, and usually a food truck or two. Live music is almost always good. The design of the bathrooms are really cool, and so is the design of the rest of the place.

It’s was just ok. Nothing special. The drinks were a bit expensive. We also got a cocktail. The Costco mimosas taste good than their cocktails. Not gonna be back for sure!
