Bud's Rockin' Country Bar & Grill

I can't share a picture of my meal because, due to health reasons, I can't eat or drink. We started visiting this spot at the end of June 2025. Right from day one, everyone has been incredibly welcoming. From the main manager to the other managers and all the employee we have met, we've felt accepted.

We visit for one person in particular, Alicia. She stands out. Everyone knows and everyone understands why she’s special to us. Alicia excels at her job. She's the kindest, gentlest person I've ever met.

It’s unusual to find so many employees who are genuinely nice and kind, from the top down. That makes this place truly special.

I've never been in here, but as a rideshare driver I pick up and drop off more passengers at Bud's than any other bar/club in or around Evansville. KC'sTime Out and Marina Point are a close second.

Been here several times and have eaten many different items.
Never had a bad meal!

Always WAY too packed. Entry price is stupid and the drinks never have alcohol and the dj usually sucks.

Good is so good. It's nice for families during the day and going out at night. Good luck getting your food in under 45 minutes when its not busy to have them reheat it and leave it cold in the middle.

Amazing service, food, and atmosphere. Everytime we come in drinks are ALWAYS ice cold, service is fast (thanks to the amazing staff & our go-to server Josh), and the food is delicious! We're made to feel like family and I would recommend this place 10/10 times! Seriously best atmosphere and staff on Franklin!

This was my second time eating here, the restraunt was muggy, the food took over a hour to come out, and honestly it was not anything special. This is probably a great place to go if you drink, but its just typical bar food. I probably won't go out of my way to eat here again.

If you're looking for a quiet Thursday night…keep driving. Bud’s handed me a 3-inch stamp on my arm at 7:30pm like I was entering a music festival, not a bar off Green River. Just absolutely unhinged in the best way.

This place has grit, neon, and a “you might see a bachelorette party or a bar fight—or both” kind of charm. The drinks are strong, the music’s loud, and the energy is somewhere between honky-tonk and fever dream.

I’m not saying I’d get married here…but I wouldn’t not get married here.

Went there with a group of my friends about a month ago. Got charged $5 at the door. Seated ourselves at a dirty table. After several minutes they did finally clear the table. They were a little busy so I was not to bothered at first. Had to request a menu, then was only brought one for a group of five. Had to go up to bar to order drinks and I opened a tab. I have done this many times at other bars before with no problems. Food was not bad but not great. I closed out tab and in the following days I had multiple charges pending that were not mine. In the end I was charged an extra $121.and some change. Called several times, and many text exchanges with a manager. She has been super nice but I am still waiting for a refund for being overcharged almost a month later. This was my first and last visit.
