I love Busters - a good local beach bar with just enough tourists to make it interesting. . But I REALLY LOVE the bar when Anna is working. She is is fantastic bartender. Introduces herself, calls you by name, comes from behind bar to make sure you are good, makes a lovely drink including a smoked old fashioned Buster's has a very friendly vibe with indoor and out door seating and great people watching. Good pricing and decent selection of draft beers (and bottles). It is also a liquor store .see ya' there.... read more

It's always interesting when you visit a local bar in a touristy area - honestly, it can be a different experience from day to day. The bartenders at Buster's are super friendly and want to help you have a good time! My only complaint is I can never figure out which buster's im in so my TouchTunes requests never seem to play in the right spot! read more

Not our normal type of bar, that being said, the bartender was very nice. The cocktail was $8, but I felt it was worth it, not a short pour by any means. They had live music, and J Cruz, the one man act, was really good. He talked with the audience and made you feel at home. Would definitely stop back. Plus, they had carryout beverages. read more

We had fun here but I'm pretty sure 2 beers and 2 shots of 1800 during happy hour don't total 25$, witch is what we paid today. Went back in for 2 beers and total was 7$! So do the math! Shady read more

Buster's is a fun bar and package store with live music and electronic trivia. It's mainly frequented by local East End Beach residents They have a jukebox, cheap "tall boy" beers, and the bartenders are beautiful and fun to be around. Shout-out (in alphabetical order) to Gisele, Holley, and Sydney! read more

Fun place! Cold beer and great customers and employees to talk to. I definitely highly recommend this bar.

Review from a Harley owner and biker bar enthusiast: I found this place very off putting. The bartender was rude and unwelcoming. Actually, so was the majority of people there. Got a lot of hateful stares for no reason at all. I love biker bars and have never felt so out of place in one as I did at Buster's. There were Natzi stickers all around, so I guess that explains a lot. Just avoid this place and go to Patches if you want great bartenders and a chill and local-friendly bar. read more

We being locals that we would try Buster's Brickhouse Pizza. One staff member the counter was not friendly, they had menus all over the counter, 1 menu I hand in my hand had specials on it, like a large Pizza for $20. We oder single slice of pizza and I asked about the special on that menu she grab the menu out of my hands and said this old. The Pizza had very little sauce if not sauce at all on it and the same with the cheese and the veggies were cold on slice. So if you want a dry piece of pizza then drive to the east end. Still looking for a good pizza in town. read more

Only reason I give 3 stars is because the owner was a great guy and super friendly. But the bartender needs to get fired ASAP, treated us awful because we're 22 years old and she didn't think we're of age. At the end of the night she called the cops on us and when we tried to reason with her she wouldn't give us the time of day. I will come back here 100% because the owner was so friendly but that bartender is awful. This place deserves 5 stars but that bartender ruins the place read more

We go to Busters, Beer and Bait almost every Thursday for music bingo. The gal who runs the game does an exceptional job! The drinks are good, and inexpensive and the pizza is terrific! We always have a great time and the staff are super accommodating. read more

Inappropriate and racist behavior from the staff. Bartender was sweet but definitely didn't expect that. Lost customers.

I waw kind enough to tell this establishment, that they were selling Jim Beam 5th for $10 less than their competitor Newbees. I was rewarded by them raising their price by $10!!! No good deed goes unpunished!!! read more

Pizza way over priced orders a large pizza minus 2 ingredients when I picked it up it was half done and sloppy made I paid that ridiculous price do not eat here read more

If you are not caucasian do not stop here to buy anything I went in with my sister today and the atmosphere gave "whites only" from the workers to the patrons I have never felt this uncomfortable my entire life. If I could give zero stars I would. read more

This became out hangout during our vacation because the Airbnb we were staying in was just a block away. There was a great large selection of craft beers on tap, many different beers you can purchase (liquor store), great music, live music sometimes and bait too. There are tables inside and out and really good people hanging out there. This is a local crowd. Veteran owned. read more

Walked in and was greeted by the owner, had some good expectations. Initially though we were hit with the smell of something burning...this should've been the first clue. Not only did we pay over $80 for 2 large pizzas and 2 appetizers after being told the appetizers were half off, we had to eat 40 minutes for it to even be ready. Now after we got the pizza it was incredibly soggy and burnt to a crisp on the underside. The entire pizza was burned on the bottom. Would not recommend this place, there is a dominos a block away. Do not waste your time or your money. read more

Visiting Busters is a must whenever we go to PCB. The staff is friendly and the pizza is a must. Great drinks at a great price.

The worst service I have experienced in my life. Waited at the bar for 20 minutes, never served. During my twenty minute wait the butter faced bartendress made 5 drinks, two of which inckuded one for her and another bartenderess which had been playing on her phone during this twenty minute span. Do not go here. Go to some place with real service such as Schooner's or Newby's. read more

Closed 40 minutes early. No explanation posted. Disappointed. There was a crowd out front but the place was locked down. If your hours changed you should post it on the door and on other sites! read more

My group of had a great time at this local hangout. People were very friendly. Give the place a try.

Busters is a hidden gem in Panama City Beach. Not only is it a liquor store and bait shop but they also have a full bar. It is a local hangout but out-of-towners are welcome. The owner, Buster is a super nice guy and very accommodating. The staff was really cool and we enjoyed hanging out. Buster is a veteran and at sunset he playes the national anthem outside. Everyone in the area will stop and remove their hats to show their support. On the outside of the building there is a tiki bar with astro turf with lawn chairs and cornhole. Overall it is a great place to just kick back and chill. read more

Stopped there last night. The bartender was a complete jerk to us. He just should have told us he didn't want us there. There were only a few people there but he was a total ass. After cutting one of the songs we played on the jukebox and putting our songs at the end of the queu we decided to leave. We like to walk there but will not return. I don't recommend this place to anyone ever. Quite a shame. read more

Great staff, cold drinks, & awesome company! Had a great band playing outside and a awesome patio that gave the bar a real beach feeling! Definite stop of your in the area! read more

This place is awesome. Buster (owner) is a well traveled connoisseur of beers and liquors from around the globe. He's truly put his heart and soul into making sure his customers have access to the best. It may look like a humble small business from the outside but it's nothing but quality on the inside. Definitely worth a stop, if nothing else just to meet the colorful character and great guy they call Buster. read more

Pretty much our favorite watering hole in PCB. I really wish Buster would expand and make this place bigger but then maybe it would lose it's appeal? It gets so busy people hang out in the parking lot here. Great crowd and always an entertaining time. read more

Hang out inside at the bar or there is lots of seating added outside with corn hole and live bands. Buster the owner hangs out here alot and is always fun to shoot the breeze with along with all the locals that hang out here. Cheap drinks that are made with a heavy hand, my favorite combo. Lots of Beers on Tap also. If you drink 69 different beers you get something... not sure what it was now.. i was about 4 drinks in when they explained it to me.. They just opened food that is attached to the outdoor seating and has a walk up ordering window. read more

Whether you're a local or vacationing in PCB, Busters is a fun place to hang out for drinks with friends and family. Indoor or outdoor seating. Always lots going on with live bands, karaoke, cornhole & more. Separated by an outdoor patio, next door is Busters Big Kahuna Café, offering some awesome fresh island food so you can get both your eat and drink on. read more

Great little business and very helpful people working there. It's the perfect place for your beverage and fishing needs. I was able to get a 3 day fishing license, bait and a nice adult beverage for my trip. The staff was a fun crowd and really make you feel welcome. I even went back the next morning to pick up some more bait. Highly recommend for your drink and fishing needs. read more

Love love love....the people here are amazing and very friendly.....great place to enjoy with friends and family...even the owner is amazing and he always has great bands play...by far one of my favorite places in Panama City beach... read more

Crazy awesome beer selection! That is the reason I keep going back. It gets a little crowded and the crowd isn't really my style. I always meet someone friendly with whom I end up chatting. Fair share of creepers on a busy night, but that's pretty much anywhere in PCB. I prefer to go to Buster's for an event or on a night that isn't Friday or Saturday, but I always have a good time. Almost everytime I go, the bartender is very knowledgeable of the beer on tap... super helpful! They even let you sample before you buy an entire pint. If you get a chance, check out their beer festival in the fall. Holy Moly! That's a lot of fun and it benefits Wounded Warriors, which is even COOLER! read more

We went there two nights in a row.tuesday and Wednesday night.They had a band outside in the parking lot both nights.Great beer selection.Wednesday was ladies night and i got 2 for 1 Magharita.Plenty of chairs oitside to enjoy your drink and the nice evening breeze read more
