@gooochyeee I'd say Backyard Stuff, from what you've specified there. Vintage Glamour doesn't really add to family/kids life, except for the butler and I personally find that quite flawed and unreliable. I added it as a companion pack to Get Famous and found it blended well with the celebrity or upscale lifestyle and the Get Famous build items.
Backyard adds to family gameplay and surroundings with the different outdoor items you can add. It's much more family friendly I'd say. With Vintage Glamour you'd get some lovely evening wear and fancy furniture but I'd imagine the little Sims would much rather have a waterslide as opposed to an expensive coffee table they're not allowed to touch!

@gooochyeee I would say vintage glamour, I think its has some good furniture, and CAS is decent too. The butler is ok, hes not great. He doesn't do much, and even if you assign him a bed he rarely sleeps. But if you give him a task generally, he will do it, and he does help well in the garden. And The backyard stuff, I actually haven't played, so I guess my answer is one sided perhaps. If it was me, I would buy the glamour, over the backyard. But just know that the butler does not work like he should but doesn't suck either.

@gooochyeee By drinks table do you mean in Vintage Glamour? Because Vintage Glamour has a unique Globe Drinks bar which serves different drinks to the regular bars and the spa day bar. It has the Sims equivalent of kind of short drinks in lo ball glassware.

@gooochyeee Ah right, I get the one you mean, there's a tray with a jug isn't there. I just use that for kitchen decor so I'm not sure. I've used the Spa Day tray for drinks but I've never tried to do anything with the Backyard one. I just thought it looked nice in the kitchen lol.

@gooochyeee Do you know I've had that pack since it came out I think but I've never noticed that. I'll have to try it, thanks and happy New year!
Oh and the bird feeder works too...but be wary of using it in Sulani if you have Island Living lol...your Sim may not thank you for it! Enjoy your new pack.

It depends on whether your personal gameplay style tends more towards water slides or butlers. 😉
I use butlers a lot, especially for new vampire parents who can't cook! LOLOLOL okay, that probably says a lot about my playstyle... 😉
