“NKU Track team in town for Horizon League Outdoor Track Championships; doing a team bonding evening before the following days competition.
Bob and staff took excellent care of us!
Our group hit the buffet and we did have a period when the kitchen was struggling to keep up with the demand early on however no one went hungry for the evening. Hated to see full pizzas go to waste.
Team had alot of fun with darts, golf & axe throwing.
Fun concept, thanks for your hospitality.

“Service, food & environment“

“Great Atmosphere. Wait staff is always very friendly TV's everywhere great place to watch any event Good selection of tap and bottle drinks Ice cold beers Daily food specials big dining room & bar“

“I went here for the first time with some friends to watch the NCAA tournament. I want expecting much but they had a good beer selection and the wings were really good.... Way better than BW3's these days. The waitress was really nice and made sure we had everything we needed. If definitely go back for their wings.“

“Matt has done a good job at cleaning the place up, especially the restrooms. Open Mic night is a great way to see live performances and many different styles. I also like Friday Karaoke- the bar was 80% full and people were having a great time with their friends. If I was to have any complaint it would be parking, needs better lighting , repaving and expanding if at all possible. If that happened they would have to have add another floor“

“Love the fresh tacos and fish dinner,very good service, accurate services.“

“I've lived here for 10 years now, and the Boat Bar has been a great place to feel welcome, let loose with great music and great people. also a great job too. the family here treat you like family as well. even outside the bar. Thank you to the Hagar family and most wonderful staff. my nephew thanks you as well.“

“Best food I've had at a restaurant in a long time 💯. They actually put love into their food and you can tell by their creations they take pride in their work!!! so worth it!!“

“My family used the Game Room 2/23/25 for a Memorial Gathering for my brother, Andrew Clark. Though the reason for the occasion was a somber one, the Game Room was perfect in atmosphere, size, amenities, and decor! Food was top notch, service superior with our 2 bartenders who kept dishes clear and beverages flowing. Erin, the manager was a jewel to work with! She answered questions and offered suggestions and took every phone call with grace and sincerity. I would highly recommend Buck Shots Bar and Grill for any reason to get together with family and friends! Sheryl Greene, 2/25/25“

“We have been here a few times and it's always good. Service is decent, food is hot and decent. The place always seems to have a few tables, but never overly busy of the times we have been here. I ordered my burger medium rare, and it was well done, but it was hot and didnt sit in the window for a long time. It was seasoned well and was still nice and juicy. The girlfriend got a chicken quesadilla and really enjoyed it. The garnish was a little odd being rough chopped salad lettuce and diced tomatoes, but the quesadilla was really good. We got potato skins for an appetizer and it was decent, just basic sysco frozen potato skins tho. Nothing is over the top delicious, but nothing is horrible either. Just, decent bar food. Def check this place out, but dont expect a 5 star meal either.“

“$5.99 burger & fries, with a whiskey sour 👌😌🥃 I’ll definitely be back, and only wish I had stopped in years sooner!“

“Awesome food, great atmosphere. Dominic is the best bartender ever, he’s so friendly and seems like an all around great guy.“

“Stopped in recently and had a great experience. Service was attentive and professional, and the bartender stayed on top of things even when it got busy. Food was solid, and prices felt in line with similar spots around here. A really good place to grab a drink and hang out.“

“We’ve always had good food and service any time we’ve been here. It’s exactly what you’d expect. But today there was a server(not even ours) who went out of her way to make my young sons(2&4) feel special. With a random act of kindness. When I told my son that I didn’t have any cash for the duck claw machine, she overheard and had pulled a pair of singles out of her book for my sons to “win” a duck. I didn’t accept it, because we have too many toys as is, and my wife generally keeps a little cash(which my son begged from her). I didn’t her name, but I hope her manager sees this. She is a lovely young woman 5ft(ish) with medium brown hair in 2 long braids.“

“One of the greatest experiences I’ve had ! great atmosphere , friendly staff , tasty food .“

“I live in the middle of the lake Orion and lapeer bdubs this one is hands down better in every single way. Food is served considerably faster and is better the staff are much friendlier and the atmosphere is just better as well. I recommend this bdubs to anyone.“

“Went in for the first time last night with my roomate . Super friendly and prompt all around service . The food was awesome service was outstanding. I forgot my Togo and my sever actually ran out after me to me give it to me . Mind you it was like -2 . Talk about excellent customer service and overall experience. Will be back soon and will recommend forsure .“

“I come in regularly and service is always spot-on. I usually get Ryan as my server and he knows my order by heart at this point. He always makes sure I'm taken care of and never left waiting. And he makes sure I never run out of ranch. The asian zing cauliflower nugs are absolutely bomb, even better than the chicken version somehow. I've been to many many Bdubs locations over the years and this is the ONLY location that never screws up my order or gives me cold food.“
