Bud's Ice Cream, Coffee & Food

We were passing through the area looking for food and ended up here. It 's a nice atmosphere and staff were friendly. We ordered paninis and when we asked about the size, we were told they 're big, real big When our food came though there was nothing but disappointment. The sandwiches were small. Mine in particular looked like it was off the kids menu and was the joke of our table. I 've had lots of good paninis in my life but never one that wasn 't brushed in oil prior to grilling. That was the case here. They didn 't even look grilled and could best be described as lightly toasted. The toppings were sparse, and the flavor quite bland. We left disappointed and not full.

I gave one star because I cannot give zero and still post! First, the woman at the counter acknowledged me in a timely fashion, and I thought GREAT! But it all went down from there! Her rudeness overpowered her acknowledgement! She told me there was no way she could take my order, and that SOMEONE would try to get to me, sometime! I should have left then! I want these facilities to recognize that not every customer comes in every day, so some of us DON'T UNDERSTAND THE PROCEDURES and we are NOT there for your benefit! Once my order was finally taken by a gentleman, he vaguely gestured in the direction of the door... again, I should have left!!! Finally, I figured out how to find the simple coffee I actually came in for but once there, I was confused because the language of the writing on the pump canisters looked as if it was in Rhune or some other antiquated script!!! A local customer pointed out the regular coffee and I thanked her very much! Finally, the regular coffee had less than half a cup in it!!! I almost threw the contents of my cup on the floor along with the STALE pecan roll I ordered! I had no idea the roll would be stale, but after taking my less than half cup of coffee outside and going to the MI COFFEE vendor located north of buds, (to get a full cup of coffee) I tried the pecan roll and it was most definitely STALE!!! There was no best by date so I can only speculate on it being 2 days old... Will I return? NOT ON A BET! Would I recommend buds? NOT ON A BET!!! Bill Nelson

Very long wait. Rude staff. Will avoid in the future. Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $10–20

The food was hit and miss, the burger was great but otherwise the coffee cake was pretty rock hard, broke my fork a couple times lol. The atmosphere was very cool, it’s an order and it’s brought to you type of place. The service wasn’t the best at the time but that could be for any reason so I won’t hold it against the place. Just believe for the price it should have been a better experience/bigger food portions. The atmosphere is very cool however. If your interested in stopping in you should just to do it. The bacon cheese burger specifically is good!

Best restaurant in town for sure! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
