My intention was to drive up the street to the local pizza shop but parking was scarce, except in front of Rudys Tavern known as a dive bar. I thought, "its 11:30am they wont mind if i park here" Sure enough one of the bartenders was pulling in just as i got out of the car. " Hey come on in!" " Uh Ok Do you make cheesesteaks?" I asked hoping she would say no. " we sure do come on in!" so i had no choice. the place was a dive , not that there was anything wrong with that , fine for a drink or two but lunch? The ladies running the place were incredibly nice and friendly . they made my cheesesteak and fries in under 10 min. I thanked them and left with my heavy sack feeling explosive diahrea was imminent. It was actually one of the best cheesesteaks ive ever had. The bread ( which as we know makes the sandwich) was perfect crispy yet not stale. The meat cheese onion ratio was also perfect . the taste was sublime. i went back a few more times to make sure it wasnt a fluke and it was just as good each time. of course there was the explosive diahrrea oh yes dear readers there was but was it worth it oh yes

The music played here is classic R&B. I was hoping to Detroit Urban Ballroom or Chicago Style Steppin here. I quickly found out that Philly is Bopping Country. (I don't Bop. But I think I can catch on quickly with a lesson or two). Needless to say, I did not get my dance on. I was there on a Friday night. The place was packed (wall to wall with dancers). The people there were very friendly, warm and inviting. I felt very comfortable. The food was great! I had pan seared Tilapia. There was so much food that I could not finish. The food and drinks are reasonably price. Can't beat it.

The bartenders are friendly, attentive, and always make sure everyone is having a great time. They know their regulars, make newcomers feel welcome, and create an atmosphere that's hard to find anywhere else. The crowd is just as great, everyone is down-to-earth, welcoming, and there to have a good time. Whether you're stopping in for a quick drink, watching a game, listening to music, or hanging out with friends, Busty's always delivers. If you're looking for a true neighborhood bar with amazing bartenders, great people, and an unbeatable atmosphere, Busty's Tavern is the place to be. Highly recommended! Thank you Joe and Maggie!

So many dive bars, so little time. This place has been around for over 75 years. 75 years! This…read moreplace was serving drinks before television. Unfortunately, unlike some wine, great age did not improve them. Yikes is this ever a smoker's bar. I walked in, peered through the carcinogenic haze, and saw a long bar in a narrow room. Of the fourteen stools, nine were occupied with patrons actively smoking. As they were so obvious I counted 10 ashtrays lining the bar. To complete the scene the bartender served my drink with one hand while holding a cigarette in the other. To be fair my drink was good and cheap. I noticed that there was a separate dining room with a separate outside entrance. Ah ha, this must be the non-smoking part of this place. Think again. There is a big sign on the dining room entrance door that says "Smoking Permitted." At least they don't need to worry about the quality of their food. Most of the patrons can't taste, smell, or see it. It's clear that Busty's has a following. I just won't be one of them.

They have a full calander of events, went for a show my fiancé was playing. I liked that they had the bar side and then another like "seating" area with the stage. The guy who I think owns it ?

I prefer tap over bottle and never switch out. ended up putting a few ice cubes in the beer to chill it up. this worked well enough for me. the bartender Chris made sure I had fresh ice with every draft. the wings were on special so I rolled with them. very tasty with a good amount of sauce, bleu cheese and celery. will definitely head back hoping the tap situation is addressed. give it a shot on a Wednesday and tell Chuck that Team ? sent you.

We chose this spot because we were looking for a Caribbean spot other than Ibis. We said we would run to an atm and be back and we were then informed that it would be $20...we tried to look this place up earlier ti find this info and saw noneee of that. Bouncer ended up honoring all of us but one to pay the 10, but it was you know, an annoying start. Once we got in there wasn't that many people here. So seemed crazy that you are charging 20 to get in...Scene picked up around 12-1, maybe then the price should change. Hookah costs 25. Coals are an additional charge of like three dollars- annoying, At least the first coal should be free. Especially when they aren't even the big hookahs... Drinks were about $7 which isn't bad. Shots were sufficient, no real issue with that. Maybe another bartender would help. The place is spacious, vibe is great. This night they played American Music and Caribbean music so great blend. I heard that on Fridays theres no cover and they have $5 fishbowls...thats my kind of party so I hope that it's true. There's one functional pool table. Enough tvs to watch a game and ultimately a nice little hangout spot. There is parking in the back as well. Overall, once the party picked up and we kept drinking the fun increased! Didn't want to leave! Limited chairs/seating. There was an event that night, someones birthday and food was served. Not sure if thats every night but either way totallyyyyy worth the cover
