Gary aka ‘Buckeye’ and Sandra Crothers are the owners of Buckeye’s Bar & Grill. A casual place to have a drink, grab a bite to eat, and play some games. They took ownership of the bar in 2023. It has a freshened look but the same great atmosphere.
Buckeye’s Bar & Grills goal is to have the best bar food and cold drinks in town. With drink specials available it’s easy to find something for everybody. They provide a casual atmosphere and layout to enjoy a fun night out. They have gaming machines and a pool table and darts all year round. Buckeye’s holds special events such as live bands, trivia nights, and holiday parties throughout the year. Gary and Sandra are avid bike riders so you can find “Bike Nights” are regular events for Buckeye’s.
Gary and Sandra both have full time jobs and work very hard each day, and decided one day that they wanted to start a business. They love to ride their motorcycle, spend time with their grandson Brantley, and assist every year with the Ronald McDonald House Thanksgiving Dinner with a group from Toyota. They also assist with a group called the Sons of Silence with an annual “Shop with a Biker” program to take children Christmas shopping.
Sandra and Gary love the fact that they can meet new people on a daily basis and interact with a small community. Both of them love to talk and socialize. They value working as a team and solve problems the same way. They encourage the community to provide input to help them make their business better and successful. In the future, Sandra and Gary hope to continue growing and be more successful.
