Half the price of the bars just a street away, not as loud and you can sit outside and still watch show / karaoke 5 bottles of beer for 5.25 Euros is cheaper than some of the supermarkets. Will definately pop in again before I go home 😀

Grand place to be if you like the entertainment and good music

Busy but staff were friendly and was a great service…Fantastic singer in there ❤️

Fantastic place, brilliant entertainment all day into night. If you want to go, make sure you're early cause it's packed out the door

Loved this place so much

Excellent entertainment and bar staff very polite. Very enjoyable night!

We visited while there was still restrictions but the bar was still busy with live cabaret. We really had a great night and the staff were so welcoming. When we return we will definitely return to this place.

Can't rate food as we didn't eat there but a small bar with a big atmosphere watched 2 acts both really good...

Karaoke bar! Slightly older crowd

Fantastic vibes and atmosphere

Great bar, excellent staff. Very welcoming and friendly. Been coming here for the past 5 years. Couldn't ask for a better pub.

Great bar live entertainment with different live acts all night and Karaoke to finish into the small hours of the morning all the staff friendly and welcoming, good prices for drinks compared to some other bars we look forward to making it our local next time we’re in Benidorm

Great bar, We spent many nights there during our stay. Would recommend for karaoke lovers

Typical benidorm boozer. Good sun during the morning and mid afternoon. Various acts on including Karaoke sessions. One standout are the toasties ( I know, typical brit abroad). After a disappointing aircraft tostie and a couple of others this one was spot on!

1st time in after the refurb and quite impressed. More open plan and plenty of seats. Great atmosphere 👌

Ideally placed Central to everything. 4 great Cabaret acts every night and Karaoke 1 - 3 pm.

Staff very friendly great entertainment and good atmosphere

Had a great night here seeing shawaddywaddy. Was sat at tge bar enjoying as many shots as i could get. Bar staff where great really attentive an pleasant would highly recomend

Nice friendly bar with good drinks prices, but more importantly great entertainment. DJ, karaoke and live music were all great and the staff are super friendly. More importantly, you can have a laugh with them. Will definitely return next time I'm in Benidorm.

Absolutely love this place, great bar to be in, karaoke for your sing alongs.. the bar staff are fantastic friendly and the prices of everything is reasonable

Excellent venue. Fantastic entertainment. Cheap drinks. Karaoke until late.

Great sun terrace, lovely friendly waitress, had a fab afternoon, we will be back often

Not eaten. This time away was the first time we found it. But i was in 3 times. Great bar is always busy. Staff great. Dance floor stage. Acts on. Once in, you find yourself staying longer than expected. Great find.

In our opinion, there is nothing not to like about the fantastic refurbishment of Buddies Bar. We went there most afternoons during our 13-day holiday to Benidorm from the 28th of April to the 11th of May 2024. My wife and I enjoy singing and listening to Karaoke. Julie, the afternoon Karaoke host is one of the best we have had the pleasure of meeting. Mel the manager and Emily behind the bar also looked after us exceptionally well. Mike & Liz Dear (Aberdeen).

Didn't have any food at buddies bar, but the staff are lovely the drinks well priced and the entertainment good.

Called in whilst in Benidorm, nice comfortable place and ideal for Karaoke enthusiasts. Great compere as well.

Lovely bar in the afternoons to have a bit of karaoke, and it isn't rowdy like others are. Then at night they have acts on. Prices are cheap, 2 vodkas with a mixer only 6 euros

Fabulous friendly bar. Under new ownership that brings a warm fun atmosphere. Staff are lovely and the acts are top notch. Reasonably priced drinks, great range including excellent coffee. Once visited you'll become a regular, whether on holiday or living here.

Great music bar. Good service comfortable seating.

Went in there on my first night in town. Went back every night after! Great place to meet 'Nice" people along with incredible bar service that nothing is too much. Not forgetting top artists every night before and after a karaoke which too is ran by Great professional women.

We were there Sunday between 6 & 8pm, friendly staff, good service and drink prices, Karaoke was great craic.

Nice little place, good acts on, friendly staff, clean.

Great atmosphere and some great acts. The food, although only snack bits I.e toasties were delicious. Always made to feel welcome and the staff were lovely as well. Would definitely recommend.

A great , friendly karoke bar. Bar ladies are lovely.

Popped a few times for drinks and to see the acts. Good prices and good service

Good karaoke bar professional evening entertainment cheap drinks, great atmosphere been a few times.

Great pub decent sized inside always plenty and friendly bar staff with good selection of drinks and good acts on each night always good to go in here

We just happened to go during happy hour, cheap bottles of estrella 2 for 3 euros, local malibu and diet coke were strong. Karaoke was entertaining and a singer on afterwards. It's more of an during the day bar which quietens down later on.

Great acts and good service

Great drinks prices & great acts on, we saw Showaddywaddy. We'd go back to this bar any time. I'd heard it was a friendly place & I was not disappointed.

Busy bar, great service and good prices. Known for karaoke afternoons, newly expanded terrace and a range of acts at night.

One off the best, drinks top notch and prices always friendly staff and good service we always pop in for some good times with the classic karaoke bringing back the memories great British feel in a decent pub

Great place with fun karaoke. Supposed to br place to meet solo travellers but more of a meeting place for bits who live in benidorm. Good atmosphere

Small venue but the entertainment was good.

Super pub on the Levante side of Benidorm. Staff welcoming and very friendly. Good music but the paid entertainment wasn't to my liking

Atmosphere was not great on one visit as a very drunk couple were fighting. To be fair the bar staff dealt with it quickly but we left as it had an ugly tense feeling

Reasonable prices. Great cocktails. We had a Mudslide and an After Eight. Mmmm, lovely.

April 2024. Nice live music and 2,50 euro local pints. Still going strong. Also has karaoke during the night. And 4 times live performance a night at 9, 10, 11 and 12 o'clock. Just been renovated. Unfortunately the price of the local pint went up and the new music installation doesn't show the singing voices well.

We had a great karaoke afternoon at Buddies Bar

Great place to drink day or night. Good entertainment in the 🌙

Loved it entertainment was grest Karaoke 🎤 too

Since changing owners bar needs redecorating. There is a good atmosphere When sun out great sitting outside. You have to be quick to get a seat. Artist good on a nite open tea time on the Mike. Worth a visit Rita

Good till the staff changeover from about 8pm, from then the staff seem to be too busy talking amongst themselves (earlier staff stayed for a drink) to serve customers, and then if you try to attract their attention accuse you of banging on the bar when you haven't. Crappyish end to what was a good night up till then, moved on to a better atmosphere. Shame as it had been a good evening till that point.

Me gustó mucho, el servicio , la comida y la atención. Muchas gracias

Such a shame this is now just a Brit karaoke bar. Used to be so good 10 years ago. Live entertainment,with talented musicians.

The pub itself is fine but the karaoke is been unfair singers should go up in order of putting slips in not putting singers up because they have not sang

Bar is fine and entertainment is OK but as for the barstaff....... overcharged for drinks and when I went up for second time and ordered less I was charged more. A bar is only as good as its staff, even after I tipped them generously the first time they still took advantage thinking I was drunk as it was late. This does happen in various places but isn't common so beware is all I can say about Buddies folks. Update April 2024, bar has had work done and is quite respectable now. Floors have been levelled and place has been decorated. Toilets have had a face-lift and the bar staff are certainly more pleasant. Entertainment is good with different acts on each night, attracts a slightly older crowd but still great for all ages.

Very poor service and awful drinks. Sorry to say we won't be returning!

Absolute distasteful staff that don’t appreciate you spending money in their business behind the bar that want your money and out that bar as quick as you pay, skipping alcohol in the cocktails u t their caught avoid this place at all costs

This was our first visit and our last. Buddies is located on a busy road with no views. Inside was a little dingy and too loud (screeching DJ on the karaoke). Outside it was difficult to get fresh air (too many smokers). 2 pints are cheaper on the Levante beach front

Pregunto desde fuera si puedo entrar con el perro señalandolo.. Uno me dice que si..entro y otro me corta el paso antes de entrar diciendo que con el perro solo fuera...digo ok. Aquí no sale nadie a ver que quiero porque es servicio en barra... Todo un absurdo. Sale uno.. No me pregunta nada...La mesa pegajosa como el suelo...pues que lo disfruten los guiris borrachos..😂 😂 gracias por tan amable servicio inexistente.
