Buoys On Hyco Lake

The BLT is to die for. I'm a BLT but like I am about tabasco sauce. The service is exceptional and fast. The music was just right for the beautiful night air. The atmosphere is really a local feel. Which I truly enjoy. I want to get to know the locals. Everyone is really friendly here at hyco lake.

Love the pizza and wings! They also have good sandwiches as well.. Highly recommend!!

After a very hot day at the lake, we went to Buoys for a late lunch. The service was friendly and helpful. The food was really good. We had the wings, a quesadilla, and very good fries. They give you a squeeze bottle of ranch which is always helpful.

Food is just ok but the service is awesome, place is clean and next to Hyco Lake. They make good drinks and is the best hangout in the neighborhood

Had lunch at Buoys this Tues. we are from NJ and were staying at the lake for a few days. Did not think much of the place prior to trying it out. The atmosphere was my cup of tea... sports on the TV and country music on the speakers. Food was surprisingly very good (much better then I expected). Our server was very attentive and welcoming as can be. Think I would be a regular if I lived near by but hope to revisit in the near future.

My wife and stopped in for lunch around 2pm on a Sunday with our dog and asked if we could sit on the porch facing the water. The waitress, who appeared to be the only one working greeted my wife and said we could take our dog on the patio. The patio though is fenced off and the only way you can get to it is by walking through the restaurant. I had to pick our dog up and lift her over 3.5 foot fence which I didn't mind but I know some people would.The service was surprising quick for how busy the restaurant was and the appearance of being short staffed. I had a couple draft beers for $3.75 a piece. We split the tator tots, which were not your normal tots. These were tots on steroids with bacon and cheese stuffed in them. A nice change from the traditional tots you can get. I had the banh mi sandwich with a side salad which they allowed me to substitute for their "McDonald's" described fries. The pork meat was tasty and the slaw topping was nice and crunchy on a ciabatta roll. My wife had a the the short rib sandwich on a pretzel bun. The horseradish sauce had a little kick which we liked.Other reviews complained about prices of food. You can tell the Bouys took that feedback because they crossed out their old prices and wrote in new, lower ones. I found the prices to be reasonable. Prior to leaving, the chef came out and checked to make sure everything was good which I found to be a very hospitable way to treat patrons.We definitely plan on stopping in in the future

Good atmosphere! There was live music the night we went. I got the nachos, which were pretty good. Wide variety on the menu.

Well if I have ate here once I've ate here 50 times in the last few years. All other 49 times were fantastic. This time they failed in every aspect a restaurant could. Came in to order take out, sat at the bar. The server literally had the look of disdain and would not make eye contact with me. After about 10 minutes finally the actual bartender came back. She takes two other orders from patrons that just literally sat down. Starting to become irritated, finally comes over no menu. Asked for a drink, made it wrong. In the past the staff had always been extremely friendly and accommodating, not these two women that had a defined upside down smile. Ordered takeout, came out in a reasonable time. The next part is probably on me. I left without checking my order. Since they couldn't get anything else right I should have checked. Get home, my wife's order was good and as ordered. Mine is- opps, they forgot to add the chicken. It's on the receipt clearly the cook decided I didn't need any. Also the portion size has been cut by 50%. Called but would not answer the phone. So let's recap- not welcomed, not acknowledged, screwed up my simple cocktail, forgot the main ingredient in my lunch, can't even get in touch to say hey it's on the receipt just not on the entree. Failure across every step. Capitalism is great I vote with my dollar, they will never see another dime. Save yourself some frustrations, just drive to Roxboro. It's as though the relatively new ownership 2-3 years ago is allowing the same fate as the failure before. Disappointing to spend $40 bucks on take out and you have to end up eating a bologna sandwich I could have ate in my PJ's never leaving home.

Dock and dine is fun and convenient but the food is below average. Bags of salad dressing, marinara in a premade cup and very little shade seating in a warm environment. The cocktails were weak but the service was fast.

10/10 the loaded tots are so good and the steak sandwich is also good And the customer service is wonderful
