About this place Buddies

Buddies is a gay-owned bar on the ground floor of the Yumbo Centre in Playa del Inglés, the open-air mall that holds most of Gran Canaria's gay nightlife. The crowd is mixed, and it works as a daytime café-bar as well as an evening stop. Food is served alongside a long list of beers, spirits and cocktails. Hours run from 10:00 to 2:30 every day. Afternoons are for a cheap meal and a terrace drink; after dark it's a place to warm up before Yumbo's upper-level bars and clubs fill around midnight.

I had been to Buddies before, but today I came and ate the Chicken & Mushroom pie with chips and peas and I must share with people that it is exceptional! Home made chips (not frozen) and a pie with delicious pastry, great chicken and mushroom inside. And Sarsons malt vinegar. I must also recommend Jonty who is a lovely waiter!!!

Lovely breakfast but really expensive for what you get I was still hungry after it. Full English is small for 9.95. most expensive English breakfast I have found in gran canaria and I live here. They also forgot the tomatoe so for the price one bacon two sausages one hash brown one toast and beans. Mad price! Not even a free tea or coffee 😂

Had a breakfast twice here on my trip and fell in love! Great recommendations on where to go at night. Great food. Great drinks. Supports local businesses and tourism. Make this a major stop on your journey through Gran Can
