Overall Rating

Review


I had the best experience at Buddy’s today! I work nearby, have celiac disease, and I found out that one of the owners of Buddy’s has celiac disease, and has educated their staff extensively about safety with food allergies. I went and tried their November burger today, the Jammie, and it was made with a gluten free bun. Most items there can be modified to be gluten free!

The only thing is that they let me know their fries are not in a dedicated fryer, so watch out for that!

Truly the best burger I’ve had in forever at a restaurant, and I haven’t gotten even remotely sick. They use unique flavor combinations that I can’t find anywhere else in Florence, SC. They’re local, educated, and I’m very impressed.

After eating, I have had no celiac symptoms at all! Overall, I highly recommend Buddy’s if you’re looking for fantastic customer service, as well as an amazing food experience. The staff is incredible, and I dare say that their food is even better !
