These burgers come in different varieties, like bacon burger or a cheeseburger. The restaurant also offers steak sandwiches and chicken sandwiches, along with corn dogs for kids.

As locals and online reviews state, Bud’s is considered a local masterpiece, much like In-N-Out’s burgers are talked about by the West Coast diners.

Upon biting into one of these Holy Grails masquerading as a burger, you may experience a culinary journey that inevitably leads you to a better appreciation of the concept of food. Each ingredient has a level of quality that surpasses premium, and exists within tier of excellence.

Their fries are served in a Styrofoam cup, a choice that confuses the masses. However, the side dish possesses excellent flavor and a perfect balance between soggy and solid, with each bite adding to the flavor whirlwind created by their other food.

The place looks like a standard dine in restaurant. The floor is a stylish black and white checkered pattern, a classic. Several tables and chairs are available inside of the restaurant, each table is well kempt, and the chairs are of decent quality with good cushioning.

The price range of the menu is below $6, most people can expect to play slightly above or below $10 for a full meal that will satisfy the human palette.

All in all, this place represents what a true burger should taste like. Its design and food are reminiscent of a long gone era, reminding us of the time where places such as these were commonly littered around the country. If you are a person who has a high expectation for the food you eat, then Bud’s may very well not just meet your expectations, but introduce you into a realm of flavor that you would have never thought existed.
