According to recent public records, The Backyard, a new, family-owned outdoor dining experience that aims to recreate the warmth and hospitality of a backyard gathering, is coming to Apopka in early 2025.

“Good things come to those who wait,” a recent post states. 

“We are getting things ready to have you over! The gate will swing open soon. Stay tuned for details!

“We have been hard at work for over three years to make this place a reality,” said owner Andrea Halperin per the Orange Observer. “We are thrilled to bring this experience to the residents of Ocoee, a place they can truly call their own.”

“We were inspired by visiting food parks and food halls around the country,” Andrea Halperin said in the press release. “We’re bringing our favorite elements from those experiences together, focusing on making our guests feel at home.” 

“It was a priority for us to create an experience where adults can enjoy themselves but also to ensure that kids feel entertained and have the space to run and play,” Joshua Halperin said. “Ultimately, our vision is to create a sense of community. A place where locals can relax and connect with each other.”

Per the Orange Observer, The Backyard will feature “lounge and table seating on a covered patio and will also have Adirondack chairs, a fire pit, hammocks, yard games and more on the lawn space. String lights will hang all over, bringing the place to life when the sun sets, making it perfect for live music or even movie night.”
