I’m not sure why we have never thought to go to The BackNine Pub before but we finally decided to give it a try. The Back Nine is located at 17 Heritage Hill
Drive, Lakeville in the clubhouse of its 18-hole public golf course and is open
year-round (except on Monday’s). As we
were driving to The Back Nine I had no idea what to expect but thought it was
likely just burgers and sandwiches.
After reviewing the menu, I was pleasantly surprised and happy to be
wrong!
The menu had a varying selection of items ranging from
appetizers and salads to seafood and steaks.
Of course there was the typical selection of burgers and pizza as well
but overall, the menu was chock full with six pages of items to choose from.
Shortly after we were seated, our waitress, Amy, came to our
table to take our drink order. I ordered
my usual Malibu and Diet Coke ($8.50 for a tall set-up), my husband ordered a
16 ounce Sam’s Seasonal (winter) draft beer ($4.00), and my son, who I had just
picked up from college earlier in the day and had decided to join us for
dinner, ordered a lemonade ($2.50).

| Bleu Buffalo Flatbread Pizza |
Around the table, the decisions were difficult. With some many choices, it was hard to
decide. My son admitted that he was not very hungry and was looking for
something that would be good for leftovers so he decided to order a Bleu
Buffalo Flatbread Pizza ($12.99), which had alfredo sauce, cheese, buffalo
chicken and crumbled bleu cheese on top.

| Buffalo Chicken Wrap |
Apparently it was a night for buffalo chicken because my
husband ordered a Buffalo Chicken Wrap.
This wrap was made with buffalo chicken, bleu cheese dressing, lettuce
and tomato and came with a side of French fries and a pickle for $8.99. He substituted sweet potato fries for the
regular fries for an additional $1.00.

| Grilled Pub Filet |
I was in the mood for beef and was torn between the Steak
Tip Scampi ($14.99), the Steak and Cheese Quesadilla ($8.49) and the Grilled
Pub Filet ($15.49). While they all
sounded delicious, the Pub Filet won with its savory garlic butter and thinly
cut, crispy onion rings. I was able to pick from two side dishes and chose French
fries and onion rings. Other options
were cole slaw, rice pilaf, sweet potato fries, baked potato, sautéed vegetable
medley, or a loaded baked potato for an additional $.99.
It did not take very long for our food to arrive and we all enjoyed
what we had ordered. My steak was done
just as I had ordered (medium) and it was delicious with the garlic butter on
top. The crispy onions rings on top of
my filet were admittedly better than the side of regular onion rings that I chose
but both were good.
My son ate about half of his pizza and, as he was planning
to do, boxed the rest to take home for a mid-night snack!
Overall, my experience at The Back Nine Pub was pleasant and
we collectively decided that we would go back again. This place could definitely turn into a
regular “go to spot” when we are looking to stay local and have a decent
meal. The atmosphere is casual, with
lots of TV’s available for viewing throughout the restaurant and bar area. Even though it has a bar in the center of the
dining area, it was not too loud, which is what I also liked about it. There was nothing fancy about The Back NinePub but there was nothing bad about it, either.
