Bud & Alley's 20th Celebration this Friday the 20th!!

One cool, clear night on the 20th of January, 20 years ago we opened our doors. We will be celebrating our 20th anniversary this year in many ways but tomorrow night we will commemorate that day with a simple champagne toast (on the house) at sunset with good friends. Join us at 4:00 and into the twilight to toast an unforgettable past and a bright future in Seaside. Live Entertainment by Stix & Stones

.....the night before opening day my dear friend and partner, Scott Witcoski and I worked until 3:00 A.M. getting everything ready. We served 25 of our first customers for lunch and 28 for dinner; Robert and Daryl Davis, Louis Hyatt, and locals Tom Stein and James Foley were among our first diners. Seaside had 15 houses, a post office and an outdoor market. Then we had a huge parking lot and few customers. Now we have no parking lot and many thousands of customers; how times have changed. The formula was simple. Great food, simply prepared in a fun and casual setting.


Thank you all for 20 years of good food, good people and good times

Many happy times have been spent at B&A's. I remember our first visit...19 years ago this summer, when we waitied an hour to get a table! sara82 LOVED the lamb chops and they used to serve her half an order and save the rest for our last night there...so cute!!! Now, my fav spot is the Tarpon Club at sunset for drinks and dinner!

Thanks for all the good and FUNN memories, Dave and friends! Here's to the next 20!!!

Many, many good times and beautiful sunsets from the Tarpon Club! Here is a picture of our last sunset in October taken from there! What a great time that was.

We look forward to many more good times soon!

Congratulations on 20 years! We had friends and guests tell us about this great place called Bud and Alley's, so one night about 2 years ago we stopped in to give it a try ourselves. We had so much fun, and the food, drinks and atmosphere were absolutely awesome! This past summer I brought my sisters down to our condo and took them to your place. They still talk about the fun we had, and the great food and drinks!

Here's to the next 20 years.....and the 20 years after that! :clap_1:
