Out for their summer party on June 21. Atmosphere was nice but the service was terrible. If you plan for a big event, you should prepare for one. plan on opening all bars and properly staff them. great planning, very poor execution. Overall experience a solid "C". read more

I visited this establishment tonight and left extremely disappointed--not just because of another customer's behavior, but because of how management handled it. While in the men's restroom, three of us were talking about how hot it was because the air conditioning wasn't working. One man joked that it "felt like we were slaves." Another customer responded by saying, "I wish we never bought those monkeys," and then repeatedly used the N-word and other racist language. I immediately called him out, but rather than continue arguing, I went to find security. I had to locate the security guard because he wasn't outside the restroom. When I found him, he was standing next to the man who had made the racist comments, so I reported exactly what had happened. The response I received was shocking. I was told there was nothing they could do because they didn't personally hear the comments. I was also told the customer was "entitled to free speech" and that if I didn't like it, I could throw my drink away and leave. I then asked to speak with the owner. The security guard responded, "I'm the fucking owner. If you don't like it, throw your drink away and leave." No one was asking anyone to violate someone's free speech rights. I was reporting a customer who was openly using racist slurs and creating a hostile environment inside a private business. Instead of addressing the behavior or even taking my complaint seriously, I was dismissed and treated like I was the problem. Whether you agree with someone's politics or not, openly using racist language--including the N-word--and comparing Black people to "monkeys" should not be brushed off by management. The fact that the owner's response was to curse at me and tell me to leave speaks volumes about the culture of this establishment. I won't be returning, and I hope others know how complaints about racist behavior are handled here before deciding to spend their money at this business. read more

What a terrible night at Waddells. I know you are closing soon but to totally give up makes me feel less empathy for your jobs. My wife and I arrived at 6:30 on a Friday night. Bar was full, restaurant was semi full. We sat at our table for over 10 minutes. Finally my wife stopped the waitress and she said the bartenders take care of our section. She said she would grab us menu's which she did not. We sat there another 15 minutes and not one person approached us. The bartenders were busy having personal conversations with the regulars. Such a shame because we like this place. We finally walked out after 30 Minutes total with no drinks or menus. Goodbye Waddell's. read more

I love stopping by Waddell's on the weekends. It's a no-nonsense, easygoing bar that delivers exactly what you want: cheap drinks, solid bar food, and an atmosphere that makes you want to hang out longer than you planned. Outside, the vibe is perfect for the more active crowd, with horseshoes and cornhole always ready to go. Inside, there's plenty of room to move around, plus billiards and dart boards to keep things lively. The service is consistently great, and the restrooms are impressively clean for how busy this place gets. I try to make it out here at least every other week--it's one of my favorite spots to catch a game, relax, or just enjoy some good old-fashioned people-watching. Highly recommend if you're looking for a laid-back local bar with personality. read more

Waddells Longhorn Corral - Classic sliders - Bars Near Me - Buckeye, Arizona

We love to visit Waddells for Saturday morning breakfast. Awesome breakfast burritos! They make a great Bloody Mary, I believe they are currently only $6. Service has been excellent. A fun little neighborhood spot that's neighboring some rural-ish communities (Waddell and Buckeye). Sadly, these neighborhoods are quickly disappearing with the gentrification of the far West Valley. We'd like to return to try the line dance lessons/nights. From what we've seen, they have a loyal local following, with the bar seats always occupied. Billiards tables and darts. Patio out back. read more

I enjoyed this Western themed bar. The Fish Friday specials were excellent! Highly recommend getting the basket or the Tacos very large portions for the price. Our server was great too (even though she was busy working the bar too, we never were left waiting.) Beer is cold and they have a full bar, pool tables, darts and music as well as TV's with my favorite thing on it the Rodeo! Looking forward to Trivia night and some bands playing for a two step. read more

Overall experience was very bad. Was visiting from out of town and staff acted like it was an inconvenience that we were there. I can see why this place is rated so poorly now. Save your money read more

If you are looking for a great breakfast spot that isn't a chain and the same ole same ole Waddell Longhorn Corral is the place for you. Don't let the Western Saloon ambience fool you- it isn't just a bar- the food was prepared with care. They reopened for Weekend breakfast mid July with a new menu. I forgot to get a photo of the NEW menu -but this picture will give you a clue. Great Food - Great Prices- and Totally Great Service. read more

Great people behind the bar and in front of bar. Down to Earth! Really had a great time!

Came to see Carvin Jones a few weeks ago when I heard he was playing here. I've lived in Buckeye 22 years and I always thought this was just a little dive bar with a couple pool tables. Much to my surprise it's actually very decent size with a couple inside bars and large Dance floor and stage for live music. I found out they mainly have country there and some cover bands. That part is heart breaking because there's so much potential here and we need a good west side venue for some Rock Bands. If ever waddels decided to expand their genre of music, I am available to help make that happen. Plus.. The Food here is EXCELLENT!! read more

Wish they would reopen! Best dancing/Karaoke in the west valley. Worth the drive. :)

Here's the deal - if you are a county line dancing dive bar kind of person - then this is your joint. I am neither of those things - well a good dive bar isn't something I would shy away from. The regulars are very territorial and make it a tad uncomfortable. The live music is great but it seems as though people know when to go so that they grab a table for the entire night. We have never been able to grab a table and watch the band. Food is ridiculously priced and the service is awful. Try getting someone to take your order #impossible I think they take pride and the place being sub par. This is now a go to for my husband and his guy friends - they don't care as much as I do. I hear they now take cards now which is helpful read more

I absolutely felt like family here! Courtney has been nothing but such an amazing bartender and her service was far from superior Thank you for such a warm welcome and great hospitality read more

One of the coolest bars I've ever been. 6 stars please. I was recommended to come here from some people in downtown Phoenix. It was far out and I was unerring so I decided not to at first. I had some friends come into town as well, so we bit the bullet and ubered. I'm glad we did. We walked into a normal bar with a few pool tables, games and wide open space. I could hear around a corner music. I walked over and found another bar with a live country band playing packed. Then I kept seeing people walk out what looked like a fire door, to find a tiki karaoke outside bar and patio. I had an awesome night. read more

Do not purhase tickets to any events at this establishment. I purchased two tickets to Midget Mania Wrestling back in February. only to be told they oversild the show and we no longer has seats. The individual at the door was drunk. They basically said dint bother trying to get a refund from Eventbrite because they won't refund the money. They blamed the establishment for being greedy. We attempted to go into the bar for a drink and was ignored by the bartender which by the way was not busy. If you enjoy being ripped off and ignored them this is the place for you!!! read more

Well to be fair I've never eaten here. So they get 1 star. The outside area is horrible. Service is bad, the karaoke dj is even worse. I used to love this place. Sadly, it is time to find a new place on the west side. read more

This place was cash money! Cash only (Wish I made money this way.)! Money because the drink prices were so good and the music and cornhole keep the vibe fun and laid back. The place is massive. Seems endless with multiple bars both inside and outside. Different music throughout, so if you're not liking one DJ, walk to another location and you will likely enjoy your next option. The food is much better than Yelp stars reflect. And the serving size is huge. Mushroom Swiss burger with tots and fries didn't disappoint. A must visit if you aren't from Buckeye. If you are, you already know about Waddell's. read more

I came here to hang out and have a couple of beers, but I decided to get a bucket instead... $20 for a bucket of beer in the middle of the day!! We're not in Scottsdale. Do something about your beer prices and food prices as well. I've been coming here for 20 years. I thought things would change with the new ownership, but it hasn't. Such a bummer. I have a lot of friends that were regulars here that now despise to come back. It's sad that everyone thought things would get better. Also, If you're gonna have pool tournaments, get good pool tables or get new felt and level them, and you would have huge tournaments here!! Also, Taylor, the waitress, was wonderful. The owner needs to do something about this place and fix some things and THE PRICES! read more

I've been coming here for the past year on weekends occasionally. I didn't have any problem until recently. I've been trying to call this establishment to no avail. Not coming back. I got charged 2 times for my bill. Scammers!!!! read more

Great place, great food, great service, portions are huge and they charge a service fee for credit/debit cards ($2 per transaction). Be sure to bring cash if you don't want to be charged that Service Fee. The establishment was clean, neat and accommodating. We will go back. read more

We tryed to get served there got ignored from the bartender acted like they didn't even want our business. Haven't been there in a while. Don't think I'll go back. We are there for about 20 minutes. No one took our order or acted like they wanted to. read more

One of my new found favorite bars! Great service ! Great music!! Awesome karaoke!! They have live music and karaoke every Friday and Saturday night and professional line dancing lessons before hand!! The atmosphere is so chill I love it read more

On a Saturday bar-crawl Waddells was second on our go-to list, the bar was fun yet slow paced, perfect for a group gathering or date night. Our server Ally was a doll! She was courteous, chatty and never let our drinks get low. We had ate breakfast before we arrived but couldn't resist ordering a plate or medium wings and fried zucchini. The wings were crispy, tangy and smothered in hot sauce, perfect combination! Fried Zucchini were crispy, and paired with cold ranch. To wash all the grub down we ordered Long Islands, Ally our server recommend the Juke Box and checked in regularly. If you're searching for a bar with yummy food, great music and atmosphere then Wadell's is your answer! read more

It a nice outing went on a Sunday food was hot and fresh little pricey but you had good options fun place lots of room and a dance floor they had a DJ that started at 9 pm wish it was more like 8 pm had a great time read more

PROS Most of the bartenders are friendly Mix of family area, pool, dancing, karaoke Live bands (when they have them) Seating Corn hole and horseshoes put back Karaoke on patio (although don't go on a Thursday) -- weekend DJ is WAY better Free dance lessons CONS poor selection of alcohol, especially for a bar Expensive drinks and expensive food Bathrooms leak a lot management drama seems to leak out and affect patrons --- not cool Poor ventilation inside the building -- hot smelly and stuffy Close at 1 (many nights it's earlier) Better training in bartending and positive team building management would go a LONG way read more

Wandered into this bomb ass place while djing a wedding in west phoenix area. We had a couple hrs to kill so we drove around to get a bite and luckily stumbled into this place! First off the vibe is cool as fuck. Straight up has that western feel, huge bar with dance area and outdoor with games and such. I'm sure they have some type of bull riding at night since I saw all the corrals out back. The bartender was super sweet and quick, I ordered the ribeye and it was literally one of the best I've had. I kinda got the feel like this is a regulars bar since I did get eyeballed by a few of the patrons when coming in. Even though, I minded my own and enjoyed my cold beer and steak. Def will go back if I ever find myself over on that side of town. read more

The place was WAY bigger than it looks outside and you can tell the locals that frequent here are all familiar with each other and the staff .. that being said, it's not very welcoming to outsiders. We are new to the area and thought we'd check it out. Our server was NOT friendly at all and seemed annoyed with our menu questions.. the food was good but kind of pricey for Bar Food. I was really hoping to find a fun neighborhood bar where we could enjoy good music and drinks not too far from home.. this place just really disappointed on too many levels. read more

New ownership has improved things. The food is still a bit more pricey but the drinks are affordable. We really enjoy the wings and they have great salads. Love to hear the bands that come through. Relaxed dive bar feel. Two bar style pool tables, two dart boards, a big dance floor, and a huge outside area with corn hole and horse shoes. Two outside bars as well. read more

Very very expensive for a dive atmosphere Food ok, not worth the price. Dark ambiance noisy .

Been there twice. Service was excellent. Our server never let us down. The food was great too. I don't normally like wings because they aren't cooked enough. I asked for mine to be extra crispy and they were perfect. It's not a fancy place but fun to go. read more

Just ordered a Doordash carry out from Waddell's and man was it good. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak with onion rings and my wife ordered the patty melt. Everything was packaged very well and it looked like the food was prepared with care. Very delicious. I will definitely order from them again. read more

Literally needs to get a new A/C system and a sprinkler system for outside. Food is decent but overpriced. You have to download an app to pay to play music or it's dead silence. read more

I was super excited to come back after the place having new management. As a long time customer there I decided to have a night cap and came in. It feels much more clean and for a Wednesday quite a few people. We got to the inside bar and waited to place a drink. We waited. We waited and was ignored and waited again. Their were three staff behind the bar working. We were never welcomed, we were never approached nor served. One bartender came by to grab her tip money and walked off and never even asked if we wanted a beverage. After waiting for 15 minutes and someone coming in after us getting served, we walked out disappointed. We were so ready to spend money and have fun. However, the staff was focused more on the apparent regulars than making sure all customers were served. read more

If you love dive bars with horrible customer service and decent food; this is the place. If you're looking for a little civility and good customer service; don't come here. read more

To expensive, $19 for a burger. Every time I have gone here it is as just mediocre. Plus a negative is it is cash only

This place was so fun and had the best service but now it's a joke and the servers are rude and slow. Never be back here again. We sat at the bar and never once was asked if we needed anything. Wasn't busy and the place was filthy. Waddells please do better. read more

This place is one of mine and my wife's go to spots for one of the best burgers you will ever eat and it to have some adult beverages. It has a really good vibe! read more

Great time, lots of fun when the dj gets there at 8:30. Usually a good crowd of people to hang out with.

New management seems to be making a difference. Had a party for about 50 people and everything was great. Food was served hot and as ordered. My guests had no complaints only compliments. Everybody was happy. read more
