Bobby Bakers is a classic neighborhood bar. Essentially, it's one long bar with a couple four tops at the end towards the restrooms and then a series of very small tight for tops on the backside of the bar seating. This bar is been open for a long time and I could see why you might not notice it or pass it without consideration. However, this is the fifth time I've been in over the last several years and I'm always bringing somebody new to show this place off. Although I suggest it's like a classic neighborhood bar, it doesn't have the neighborhood feel. Meaning when you walk in and everybody doesn't stop and look at you. It's an inclusive and welcoming environment that I would suggest you could add to your night out as a stop along the way or a fun place to meet some friends to laugh and have a beer.The walls are adorned with photos of those who came before you and it has had a "recent" refresh. The bartenders are engaging, friendly, and efficient. If I lived in Waldo, I would probably visit this location weekly.

I have nothing against this bar, great drinks, great service, great location in Waldo. But it is a small cramped long narrow bar space, and elbow room is never much in existence. You'll have a good time here, but you're also going to rub butts with many people ?

Always a fun, causal place. Bartenders are always nice and make really good drinks. Worth a visit if you've never been.
