Great place to order a pizza, many options to choose from. Order a salad to have with pizza. Have a hard cider on tap to enjoy the whole experience.

Celiac teen has had several great experiences with this location (as well as other locations). We are local to Lansing. Staff on the phone is knowledgeable and we always make sure to ask to take extra precautions in the kitchen. They do have a separate prep area and pizza always comes in a piece of foil and uncut. The box for take out is always labeled GF. Pizza texture is chewy and thick, as is typical of Detroit style. GF only comes in a 4-square size but you can order any kind you want as far as specialty or toppings. We are thankful to have a Buddy’s near us finally!

My absolute favorite gluten free Detroit pizza! It’s baked in tinfoil to prevent cross contamination and I have never felt sick after multiple visits. Servers are very kind as well!

AMAZING! This place was so good, knowledgeable and very aware of celiac and precautions. I will 100% visit this place again, and again, and again. It’s not thin crust pizza either, it is Detroit style gluten free. And the pizza is the only gluten free option on the menu.

Buddy’s was awesome! Staff were friendly & totally understood my needs. I was able to get the original Detroiter gluten free & had no issues. I feel so grateful that I could actually participate in a classic tradition despite having Celiac. Absolutely delicious & worth the trip!

Have always had a great experience here. We order it to go or for delivery. They take extra precautions for gluten free including putting the pizza on foil to prevent cross contamination.

The hostess and waiter were not knowledgeable about gluten free precautions but they gladly checked with the kitchen staff. Ordered a gluten free pizza and it came out on tinfoil with its own pizza cutter to limit cross contamination. Very reactive celiac and did not react at all. Pizza was good too. Would return.
