paid $7.58 for a large pork sandwich, a small fry that had about 12 fries in it and a cook.when we opened the bad I had a biscuit sized sandwick? called the manager at the buddies on kingston pike, bearden high school, who said he would void the ticket but didn't .... We will never be back! Why cant we just get what we paid for? Never again will I let buddy's over charge me like this again, I'm DONE!

I had the chicken and it exceeded my expectations. The smoked chicken was seasoned beautifully and the meat was tender and juicy. Buddy’s has improved a lot.

Yummy everything!! 😋. I’ve loved Buddy’s since 1982 at the World’s Fair and even though I don’t live in east TN anymore, I try to stop in every trip home that I make!

$3.99 for a large bbq sandwich and it was all bun!! Its freaking ridiculous!! I asked if there was sauce on it, she says yes, and it was not an adequate amount of sauce. This was the North Broadway one by 640. I will NEVER go back!!!

Mother’s day dinner. We visited the Buddy’s Bearden location at 6:45 pm, after Aubrey’s did not honor our dinner reservation which was made at 11am this morning. We waited in line 45 minutes past our reservation time and decided against Aubrey’s. The employees and manager at Buddy’s were friendly and very accommodating to our party of 11. Fast service and good food. The employees at Aubrey’s were neither. We have eaten at both restaurants for many years. But, we can always count on Buddy’s. Thank you!!!
