About This Place

Located in the heart of Welton, Iowa, Buzzy's stands out as a beloved local bar and taco restaurant that masterfully blends casual dining with authentic, satisfying flavors. Nestled at 414 Main St, this cozy spot has become a hometown favorite for those seeking hearty Mexican-inspired dishes alongside a friendly, welcoming atmosphere that feels like a genuine community gathering place.

Buzzy's menu offers an inviting selection of classic taco fare that’s both affordable and delicious. From the crisp, crunchy Hard Shell Tacos filled with seasoned meat, fresh lettuce, shredded cheese, and ripe tomatoes, to their tender Soft Shell Tacos wrapped in warm 10-inch tortillas, every bite carries the comfort of traditional flavors crafted with care. One standout is the Enchilada—a generously stuffed tortilla topped with rich nacho cheese sauce, black olives, and vibrant veggies—delivering a harmonious blend of textures that excite the palate. Don’t overlook the hearty Chili Beef Burrito, a perfect wrap that warms and satisfies with every mouthful.

To complement the food, Buzzy’s drink offerings include delightfully refreshing margaritas, whether blended or on the rocks, with the strawberry variety adding a sweet twist that pairs beautifully with the bold flavors of their menu. Reasonably priced, these drinks invite guests to relax and linger in the warm, inviting setting.

Beyond the menu, the true charm of Buzzy's comes alive in their atmosphere—a mix of rustic country charm and lively bar energy. Customers routinely praise the friendly bartenders and the convivial vibe that makes every visit feel like catching up with old friends. As Craig Lehman put it, "Great burgers, friendly bartenders, great prices. What more could you ask for?" The genuine hospitality and steady local patronage reflect how Buzzy’s is more than just a place to eat; it's a cornerstone of the community.

Longtime patrons like R Soto attest to Buzzy’s enduring appeal, celebrating its "awesome atmosphere and patrons" over two decades. Meanwhile, Harry Slaymaker highlights the spot as not just a bar but a versatile venue for celebrations and catering, noting the enjoyment found in their famous “Tuesday taco nights” and lively events featuring dining and dancing.

Whether you're stopping in for a quick, satisfying lunch or settling in for an evening of flavorful food and cold drinks, Buzzy’s delivers an experience that’s as memorable as its tasty dishes. It’s a place that invites you to savor both the food and the feeling of genuine Midwestern hospitality.

Calling ahead is easy at +1 563-659-5946, and once you’re here, be sure to try the Bacon Buzzy Burger, a favorite of families who appreciate the perfectly grilled flavors that linger long after your meal—just as Cynthia West and her granddaughter delighted in during their recent visit.

In every sense, Buzzy’s proves itself a true gem in Welton’s culinary landscape: approachable, authentic, and warmly inviting—a destination that beckons locals and travelers alike to sit back, savor, and celebrate good food and good company.

    Buzzy's is located near DeWitt, and immediately off four-lane Hwy 61 in the small town of Welton ( it is located on a small section of what was once the original two lane Hwy 61). We had a nice lunch here at about 2 PM on a Wednesday. We had heard a year or two ago (from friends that live in nearby DeWitt, Iowa) that the food was good, and we were not disappointed with our first visit. The business is large, well maintained, and clean. It is popular with the locals-- there were about 10 patrons when we visited. We chatted with an 82 yr old local man for over an hour and were told that he has never had a bad meal there. On his recommendation we tried a burger and a grilled tenderloin sandwich. The burger was large and juicy. The grilled tenderloin was twice as large as the bun, and the meat was served cut in half and then double stacked on the bun. It was tender, juicy, and very tasty. I like mine served with dark mustard, and they had it available. The sandwiches are served ale carte -- we ordered a side of onion rings to share, and they were also tasty ( not hand made, and the usual for a bar and grill). The prices were VERY reasonable ($4.00 for each sandwich). Our soda pops ( Pepsi products) were served in the can. Per the menu, they have a salad bar and daily specials at lunch time Monday thru Friday, and they also serve Mexican food items on Tuesdays. They do have salads available as menu items. Most sandwiches are in the $3.50 to $5.00 range. Pizza is also on the menu. We were very happy with our experience at Buzzy's and will return.

    Buzzy's is a well known local bar, celebration hall and catering provider. We have enjoyed "Tuesday taco nights", lunches and many celebrations that included "Buzzy's beef", dining and dancing. It is certainly worth a visit. Update: Still the same great place

    Cozy bar in Welton that was recommended to me for meeting up with the gals one evening. Nice place, friendly staff, yummy appetizers and Taco Tuesdays! You can sit at the bar or they also have tables. Play a game of pool or two while you're there if ya want! Definitely recommend and will continue to go back.

    Nice little place for stopping. Great for a bike trip. Also has a nice banquet facility. Well worth checking into if you are in the Dewitt area.
