I've lived in Buderim now for nearly 15 years, walking distance from the tavern. My family and I have never had a good experience in the tavern since we've arrived. My expensive medium-rare steaks are always at least medium-well, drinks are expensive and apart from one visit, the dining room staff have been abysmal. But tonight would have to take the cake. I work all day tomorrow, as do a lot of people and can't get out to put on a bet for the cup.

At 8.30 I went to THE ONLY PLACE ON BUDERIM YOU CAN PUT ON A BET and it was closed - the night before the cup! As I was walking to my car shaking my head like so many times before, two more people walked towards the locked door - that's 3 people in 10 minutes. I wonder if TAB would be happy three people were turned away from one of their betting venues. Don't let the one star fool you, if I could give zero stars I would!
