Buddy's Roadhouse

Overall, my partner and I like Buddy's. The establishment appears to be a favorite spot for locals. The food is decent and service is great My partner and I have been trying different restaurants in the neighborhood and we had to try Buddy's because it looked inviting and the parking lot indicates they always have customers. Although the interior is a little tired, the restaurant was clean and tidy. It appears to be a favorite local bar where "the guys" and families are regulars alike. We chatted up our server, Darleen, who told us she had been a server here for about 2 decades. On top of her great service, we thought Darleen was lovely and charming. We ordered the Mexican pizza, French onion soup and garlic bread. I was impressed by the quality of the pizza considering it's coming from a local bar/pub. The portion was equivalent to a large pizza from will known pizza chain, but the crust was much crispier. The soup was definitely photogenic with loads of cheese on top. The garlic bread looked unassuming, and it was better than it looked. I was a little disappointed that the beer on tap was all of the domestic brands you would expect, which I find a little uninteresting. Overall this seems like a good place to watch hockey, or enjoy live music on a Friday or Saturday evening. My partner and I are likely to return occasionally - the place and the people gave us good vibes.
