About

On Gran Canaria, Buddies is a local business, a bar set in the Yumbo Centrum on Av. de Tirajana in Maspalomas, Las Palmas. The address sits at Planta baja Local 131-12/13 Yumbo Centrum, placing the bar on the ground floor of the shopping centre. The venue operates as a bar rather than a restaurant or hotel, so first-time visitors should expect a drinks-led spot in a busy commercial complex.

Buddies is known for its position within the Yumbo Centrum, a hub in Maspalomas where locals and holidaymakers pass through. Visitors rate the bar 4.3 out of 5 across 477 reviews, a solid signal of repeat custom at a venue of this kind. That review volume points to steady trade rather than a purely seasonal following. The bar maintains a Facebook page at facebook.com/Buddiesbar/ for anyone wanting to look it up before a visit. Nearby places such as Playa del Inglés, Meloneras and San Agustín sit within the wider southern resort area, so the bar fits naturally into an evening out in Maspalomas.

Opening hours are not part of the listing, so a quick check of the Facebook page before setting out is worthwhile. The address on the listing gives the exact reference point within the Yumbo Centrum for anyone navigating the complex. Buddies sits in Maspalomas, Las Palmas, on the southern side of Gran Canaria.

Across Gran Canaria the weather stays mild and subtropical for most of the year, with June to September the hottest and busiest stretch. Canarian cooking leans on fresh seafood, goat cheese and papas arrugadas with mojo sauce, and Spanish is the everyday language. Aeroplanes carry travellers between the Canaries and mainland Spain throughout the year, while boats and brief inter-island hops tie the archipelago together. With a 4.3 out of 5 score from 477 reviews, Buddies stands as a well-used bar in the Yumbo Centrum.
