First, this place reminded me of all the modern guys and gals whom I interact at work with. This review is from my perspective, okay? Good, Im glad we got that right. It is based on quite a few visits to Texas' own historical country bars and club visits like a tourist would see, i.e., Billy Bob's Texas in Ft. Worth, Gilley's OG Club in Pasadena, and Gruene Hall in New Braunfels. These three were legendary places on the Texas trail of Fame. Billy Bob's; Touted as the World's largest Honky Tonk, Gilley's, the actual setting for Hollywood's Urban Cowboy movie until tragically the suspected arson fire in 1980, to Gruene's Texas oldest dance hall, built in 1878. Buck wild doesn't boast much past a flyer inside it that I'm aware of other than the slight boast in one spot I found,... 20,000sqft - Longest Bar in Tx @125ft. I'll return to review their food menu another time when I am hungry, as I work in the catering industry professionally. And too, from an actual women's visiting viewpoint, as my date if I return there for a datenight. If she'll go there to a very strong twenty something, Bar vibe'. Country dance has evolved into open free style line or two steppin' to music videos played on overhanging large speakers blaring with no clarity. There's no acoustics at all in this room. Only echoing bass fuzz noise. She didn't want to attend tonight, and I'm glad because of the low attendance on a Saturday night. That is what makes this ones presentation. I suppose everyone spent all their money on HLSR tickets. You'll get to see how parents raise their sons and daughters to be in a public setting. And how sad our social gathering strength meter as a collective really is. Even though I don't drink alcohol, not once did a cocktail waitress stop to ask me if she could offer and mention to me anything food or drink wise. And she walked past me at least thirty times. That is a huge fail in my experience. If you are advertising publicly, for adult catering for the parties; food and beverages. The open free style parking lot was similar to Gilley's, with the growing pot holes. Three stars on a Saturday...
Read moreGreat place to hang out with friends, have a few, and dance. They have free popcorn too.
My wife and I have danced together in many bars all across Texas and even in a few other states for 19 years. This one is one of my favorite to dance in because their huge dance floor allows plenty of room to dance even when the bar is crowded. Can't dance at the one down the street; their dance floor is less than a quarter the size of Buck Wild's. The crowd is also a bit younger than the one down the street. Is that good or bad? I really don't think the average age of the crowd makes a difference when I go out to have a good time and dance.
Not only is there a huge dance floor, there is a smaller hang out bar in the back with its own dance floor. The music there is a little older and Texas Country. There are plenty of pool tables and a mechanical bull that's waiting to throw you off. The bouncers do their job and take it outside pretty quick. The buss boys do their job a little too well at times. There are three huge TVs projected on the wall. If there is a playoff sporting game, they will play it. Most the songs play the video on these screens. When neither, they will play either a slide show of pictures of the bar or various videos of monster trucks, dirt bike racing, etc. As always, ladies get in free before 10:00 pm.
I had a complaint once, and my wife and I talked to the owner and his wife for over 20 minutes. He apologized about my bad experience and offered us several things as a token to make it better: t-shirts, hat, pens, koozies, and more. That was a few years ago, and I still have the shirts and hat. All the bartenders will give you great service, but if you want outstanding service, see Sandy. She's the pretty blond bartender always in the middle of the long bar who is always happy to see me and my wife.
If you want to go out, you will most likely have a good time no matter the age of the crowd, the price of the beer, or the friends who go with you. If you want to do all that and actually dance, go...
