Buds uses the same recipes and still make everything from scratch. Matt Mayer makes the pies, he is the owner of the restaurant.
Yes the crust contains lard. Just like grandma used to make.
This is a cozy little place with about 10-12 tables. Food was amazing! The waitress was super nice and prices are good. Not a crazy amount of options available but most of it seems to be made in house! Will definitely be back!!
Love the old yet modern dining look to it. Staff was very nice and attentive. The food came out hot and was tasty. The men's bathroom was cramped in a small corner and not roomy at all.
Had the burger in a basket. Their hamburgers are the best! And the French fries are good too!
Buds is an awesome classic diner. Matt and the staff are awesome. This is where the locals go for breakfast & lunch. Bud’s is a warm and comfortable as the pies they make.
Super cheap, cute little diner with great pie! Check out their Facebook page for specials!
Great atmosphere great food great waitress would love to visit here again
Best pie anywhere - Great comfort food very tasty, friendly service. Can't say enough good things about the place.
The nicest people you will ever meet! Best pie, nice waitresses and waiters, and really good food! I eat here every time I'm in the mood for pie!😋😍🥧
This is the best restaurant in town
Absolutely great place with amazing service and food. Make sure to stop and get some pie you will not regret it.
Great food and prices. Very friendly people. Old time cafe experience. Don't change a thing. I love it. Just walk in a your hooked . The smell and the atmosphere is great.
I remember going as a kid and the food and pie is still the best around
The best lunch, the best pies, excellent service is what keeps me coming back!!
Good food great prices
A historical gem, passed down through family from generation to generation. Home cooked comfort food served in a diner setting. And the pie is the best you'll ever taste!
Best baked beans and pies.
Good food,old style diner
Best burger I've had in a while. Neat atmosphere. Was like time travel to a simpler era. Not sure when I'll be back to Defiance, but will eat at Bud's if I am anywhere close.
Excellent burgers and pies. Great music. Hamburgers were outstanding. I had the cherry cheese pie and my wife had the lemon meringue. Both were great. The crust was particularly good. Would definitely come here again.
Like a step back in time in a good way.
Excellent food,excellent service
You cannot find a better pie in NW Ohio. Great atmosphere and staff. The cheesesteak and peanut butter pie has always been a favorite.
Great food and service as always
Omg the coconut cream pie was the best I ever had. I will be back soon. The food was good too.
They've always got great pie!
Very good biscuits and gravy for breakfast. And, very friendly staff
Excellent food! What stands out most is how fresh the food is! Proportions are just right, cooked to perfection, and scrumptious pie! And a very nice personable staff! I'll be coming back lots more! Pictured is the Big Bud with tomato and a side order of fries.
Great family old school diner. Love this place. Great staff and food!!!
Good old fashioned Americana! Great prices. Even better pie!
Very good food was 👍
10 out of 5 stars because of the Coconut Cream Pie. Who cares about the food (even though it’s great)....GET THE PIE!!!
I absolutely loved the small town feel of this place. Great service, great diner food, great pies! Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I had a salad, chicken tenders, fries, cole slaw and a piece of blueberry cheese pie! All phenomenal. I will definitely be back.
We stopped in for fresh peach pie!
Amazing. What else can I say? The gravy on the B&G perfectly compliments the sausage Patty and links. It's like the meat is local grown. When that sausage is chewed into a fine Mush and slowly slides down your throat, it's like a unicorn granting you a wish. Eat here. You will love it. Actually, this place is disgusting.
Great family style foods, yum hamburger steak and gravy fries!
Very friendly service. Neat little small town restaurant. Pancakes were very good and they have flavored creamer which is awesome! Would definitely recommend.
Wasn't as good as I expected but it was decent food.
Takes you back to old days! Been here forever!! Best burgers fries and pies in town!! Everybody loves the pies!!
Awesome hometown food and the best pies ever!
We ate lunch at Bud's after driving 7+ hours from southern WV. I'd heard about their pies in a chatroom and just had to try a slice. Although I was disappointed that they didn't have my favorite lemon meringue that day the pineapple cream I got was good. I had a burger and hubby had the turkey Reuben with coconut cream pie. Everything was good. We much prefer supporting locally owned restaurants over chains. This was a good choice.
Always good food & service. Pie was great!
Hometown Dinner with amazing pies.
Nice place to eat at great service
3 egg veggie omelet and sourdough toast, very tasty, coffee was good and the cup stayed full. Enjoyed a little banter with the friendly wait staff as well.
My new favorite restaurant! Fast & friendly service; and homemade meals & pies like grandma used to make! I'll be back! In fact, love it so much, I think I'll move here 😀
Love the home town feel of this place. And the pie is amazing, as is all of their other food!
We love Bud's! Thankfully there is still a place that treats you like family, is friendly and has the BEST PIE EVER ON THE PLANET. It's no joke folks! GET THERE!
Bud's is a Defiance institution. They have a friendly staff, great food, and they will always have the coffee at the ready. While it may be crowded, particularly around lunchtime, the staff move with peak efficiency to serve everyone, and the wait for a table is never long. No trip to Bud's would be complete without a slice of one of their delicious pies. I make it a point to go whenever I am home. in many ways, a trip home couldn't be a trip home without visiting Bud's.
Good food. Excellent homemade pie, can't leave without a piece.
Good burgers at a great price
