Buddys Tavern - Bar in Bushnell - 5894 US-301, USA

On our way south, we were rerouted due to an accident. Everyone in our group was ready to be off the bikes for a bit for a break so we found Buddy's. I was excited because usually little bars like this welcome anyone. Not this time, it was mid day on a Friday afternoon. It was hot as hell outside and inside the bar was the same. I'm sure they had air but had to have doors open due to it being a smokers bar. Bartender wasn't friendly at all, the bathrooms were disgusting like they haven't been cleaned in months. We shot one game of pool and decided to find another more welcoming bar to spend our money at.

It's a decent place, good service and 2 pool tables. We enjoyed our visit. But it is a smoking bar, so it can get a bit smokey.

Chilli fries are good. I had fun shooting pool. Tables could use some work. Good drink @ a good price. Great people run the place and work there. We'll be back. Great Lil neighborhood bar.

I enjoy finding hole in the wall places full of character and charm. This is definitely that place. Everyone is friendly and it just like a country version of Cheers. Pool tables musice and inexpensive drinks. Definitely a place to go after work to unwind.

We were in Red Oaks RV Resort and looking for a local bar - we found buddy’s!!! As soon as the bar maid came over she said hi Ya’ll what can I get you??? We loved it - her name is Sara and she was new - Murph and I couldn’t get enough of her!!!! She was friendly, funny, had great stories, and on our last night she introduced us to her mom!!!! Her mom said “oh, your the Yankees Sara was telling me about!!!! We loved everyone there but especially SARA!!! We’ll be back!!!❤️

From the second we walked in we were treated like family even though it was our first time. The regulars couldn't have been friendlier, the alcohol is cheap and you can smoke inside! We'll definitely be back when we are in Bushnell!

Excellent place for a beer, cocktail, music or pool. The menu has quite the assortment of sandwiches. I had a corn beef, regular fries & poppers. All 3 we're excellent as was bartender Audrey. This was my first time here and everyone was extremely friendly and social. Highly recommend patronizing this bar.

Great atmosphere. Great people
