My wife found out about Buckets from a friend who said they went and thought it was a nice local bar so when we were in the area we decided to check it out. It's a bit off the beaten path and if you're not looking for it you'll miss it. It's a bit tricky parking because the front is a liquor store and Buckets is on the side in the back. When we arrived around 1230 there were a couple of groups and about 4 couples in the pub. We found a table and was greeted shortly. The waitress told us of the special and took our drink order, the menu is what I would expect in a pub bar but there were some nice choices not usually seen. I ordered the Ruben and my wife the Cuban panini both were good. Talking with the waitress I found out that this is not a new place but has changed owners over the years. The current chef does weekly specials to add to the daily menu. Cost was reasonable service was good and the atmosphere was friendly, we will visit again because we like and support local establishments versus the chain eateries. Try it I think you'll like it.

This place was old, dank and dirty with prices too high for the location. Buckets B&G need to be filled with a lot of soap and water, its filthy ???☹️

Best wings around, hands down! So glad we tried this place, we actually tried to go on a Saturday evening but it was completely packed! So we came back on Sunday for lunch and walked right in-inside isn't anything fancy but is clean, has a friendly atmosphere, good beer selection and the food was absolutely amazing. The staff was super nice and helpful. We ordered the mild wings with blue cheese and ranch. My husband said the blue cheese was delicious, the ranch was good too, both tasted homemade. The wings were very crispy and also had a char to them like they had been fried and then put on the grill-amazing flavor!! This will be our go-to wing place forever! Since we were trying out a new place, we wanted to try some of the other menu items, so we also ordered the buckets burger, which was so good-very flavorful and cooked perfectly. We also tried their pizza, it was pretty good. The crust was a little bland, but it was still a good slice of pizza. Lastly, we had to try the desserts we had heard about, we ordered the peanut butter pie and the smore's cheesecake. WOW, these were incredible. If you have room after dinner, order dessert, you won't regret it! We can't wait to come back to Buckets to try the other food on the menu, I wish I had remembered to take pics of what we ordered! We will be back soon.

Carry-out is definitely not something to try here. Over a month ago, this restaurant was great and made very few mistakes with the orders, the food before was delicious and exceeded expectations. As the restaurant became a bit more popular, it went severely downhill. The staff preparing one of the orders forgot to pack a key ingredient to one of the dishes I ordered, the bread that is normally used to scoop the dip out of the bowl. Another dish was just completely forgotten about, even though this item had been ordered numerous times before by me, all of those times before I had no problems at all.

we have been by this hole in the wall a couple of times, sits behind a gas and liquor store. Then pictures of the food and the Facebook page started to show in my feed. I told the hubby, let's try it. very friendly, drinks right away with menus served. regular patrons spoke to you, great atmosphere. the food for a bar is top notch. my hubs had the soft shell crab sandwich. came with 2 soft shells on a brioche bun with handmade salt and vinegar chips. Delish. I had the mushroom and Swiss burger with onion rings. We enjoyed ourselves so much I forgot to take pics of the plates. food plated very well. will def be returning for the carb cake sandwiches. the place stayed busy the entire time we were there. Great dive bar.

Buckets doesn't look like much on the outside, it's attached to a gas station, but it has some of the best food in SoMd. The first time we came here it was on a Friday around 4pm and it was so busy there wasn't any parking, so we decided to come back for lunch on a Friday. For an appetizer we had the loaded pierogies. I was super excited they had pierogies as I haven't seen them on any restaurant menus in the area. For mains, I had the dirty Hawaiian pizza. In addition to ham and pineapple it had jalapeños, bacon and hot honey. My husband had the crab cake sandwich. We've both eaten a ton of crab cakes and he said it was one of the best, if not the best he's had. My pizza was great as well. For drinks we each had a Bloody Mary. I'm pretty sure they used zing zang, which we have no complaints about because that's our favorite mix. We also each tried a speciality cocktail on their holiday menu. Both were very good. Our server was friendly and everything came out quickly. We will definitely be adding buckets on our regular rotation.
