What they should do is take down the wall that separates the Dixie Chicken and Dudleys. Â Looks like the exact same bar: Country dingy, taxidermy, cowpeople, and tables that have been obssesively carved into. Â SERIOUSLY, all the tables at both of these bars have some serious carving action going on.. I think Aggies might take out their frustrations on these tables. Â Might be time to switch over to marble countertops now that they're going to the SEC. Ohhhh!
Review Source:This was my go-to hangout many years ago, before, well, more go-to places appeared. That said I have a residual fondness for the place, and, as one poster noted, its fine and diverse collection of freaks and weirdos. Enjoyed many a game of pool in the back, and many many pitchers of your basic cold beer. I recall a halfway decent burger and fries basket, but again, this was years ago. Mostly I remember (and I rarely use this word) the spirit of gemutlichkeit that prevailed there as a meeting place for oddballs. I really should go back.
Review Source:I graduated from A&M in the 90's. My friends and I lived at Duddley's. Cheap pitchers of Shiner Bock and good affordable sandwiches. The back pool tables were our home away from home since student housing was so depressing.
During my four years, Duddley's stood out for being the place where anyone could hang out. All the freaks, intellectuals, punks, professors, hicks, etc partied together. LGBT friendly. Great diverse music played. An oasis in a small town full of Garth Brooks.
It was a dive bar that thrived on all the energy we brought to it.
This place is a staple on NG, so at least stop by and check it out. I'd probably give it 4 stars if it weren't for the god awful bathrooms, in all reality I should give it 1. Their saving grace is the wide assortment of bar games and the decent drink prices. I heard that sometimes they have food, but when I asked for some I got a weird look from the bartender, so I just wandered down the street and found some nearby.
Review Source:Duddley's can offer what I need: cheap pitchers of Shiner, enough seating, and that kind of silly, awesome Texas atmosphere that I crave during the Christmas holidays (living in Minnesota most of the time, I don't get to experience it much). Â My favorite place to reunite with high school friends during my yearly trips.
Review Source:The only reason we ended up in Duddley's draw was due to the fact that we thought we were entering the Dixie Chicken as they share a common back yard seating area.
Too much smoke. Â There were so many people smoking inside that we got out as fast as we came in. Â
Now one thing interesting is that while we saw no evidence of food or a kitchen (no one was eating, only drinking beer  and chain smoking) the College Station Student VIP card (from Sport Clips) has a special for a $4 lunch plate with soft drink.   We may actually stop in and try that, just hope that there are not some many smokers during lunch time. Â
If anyone knows anything about the food here, please do chime in.
Yelp must not be popular for the B/CS locals. Â I also can't believe not many reviews for Duddley's.
I lived at Duddley's Draw. Â Since it was right across campus, it was perfect to avoid that nasty thing known as DUI. Â
Duddley's was for the crowd that couldn't stomach the nearby Dixie Chicken and its atmposphere. Â I met many non-traditional Aggies at Duddley's and had so many great times here.
I was introduced to Shiner Bock here and wonder if they still sell $3 pitchers.
That is one of my fave memories of Duddley's. Â Friends buying pitcher after pitcher and just shooting the sh*t.
I lost count how many rings were dunked here.
I'm sure it is quite different now. Â But, I figured to give a glimpse of its past.
I'm the same exact age as this bar and it took me this year to realize it! Like a lot of you reading this review who went to TAMU, you have the place you'd hang out every weekend and for me and my crew it was Duddley's.
Heck seven years later having a cold one on the front porch I ran into an old boyfriend and a few other peeps from back in the day.
Today, it seems there are more hip places to hang out, but if you just want a nice cold pitcher of Shiner. Stop (or stumble) by.
I've never seen cowboys, bikers, grad students, professors, research scientists, government officials, hippies, geeks, freaks, hicks, pricks, frat daddies, sorority bitches, Joe T. Normal and Jane Q. Doe go to one place and get along so well. You can be anybody you want to be and fit into this bar just fine. Except for Ed Holcomb! If you dress really nice you will stand out... but still fit in. Great food, nothing fried, unique selection. Slot Pool, Video, Darts, Plasma TVs, Cold Beer, Â bottle, on-tap cheap. Full liquor bar as well. Sit on the Front Porch and watch the world pass you by. Longest continuously open establishment in the Brazos Valley, power outages, bad weather and holidays, this place has opened every day since August 25th, 1977. Gig 'em Aggies! Whoop!
