    The pizza de jour of downtown Frankfort wasn't anything amazing, but it was satisfying. The place is named for a dog whose pictures grace the walls, and the thick crust is likely one that would be happily devoured as table scraps by an onlooking canine. The cheese was greasy, but filling, and the sauce thin but a good contrast to its sharpness. A lunch special was offered with a small salad which was crisp, and a fountain drink which included the option for unsweetened tea. It was as crowded as anything in this rather small town, and I could see why as it was exactly the quick and filling lunch I was looking for.

    Buddy's is a great spot for pizza, sandwiches, wings and beer. They have good selection of Beer and not just typical domestics. The pizza is good, crust on bottom is thin crispy. The wings were good, plenty of sauce. Also the prices are good, not over priced.

    Looking for an easy weeknight dinner while in downtown Frankfort and so glad to have found this treasure. Nice variety and selection of beers on tap and the independently owned & operated vibe that makes the place feel welcoming and inviting. Staff was so sweet and delivered everything to our table, periodically checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. What they delivered was a perfectly cooked thin crust pizza that made for a great meal. Sauce is rich and flavorful, crust has a great taste and texture. Their 16-inch pizza is plenty to feed 3-4 people. Would definitely come again.

    The absolute best cauliflower pizza in town! Crust is always perfectly cooked and the cheese is thick and delicious!

    Please go. Immediately. I loved the lady behind the counter and the food & beer were pretty good too! Plus, the walls are full of dog pictures! Woof woof!

    Great pizza after a day of bourbon trailing and a night of beer from Sig Luscher. Can't wait to come back next time I'm in Frankfort.

This is not only the best cauliflower crust pizza I've ever had, but this is one of the best pizzas I've ever had. I'm shocked at just how great this pizza is. I've always loved their regular flour crust, but I actually believe the cauliflower crust they offer is better than their regular crust. It's only available in the 10 inch size pizza, and cost a little more, but it sure is worth it. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for this review, because I really believe this cauliflower crust pizza is one of the best pizzas I've ever tasted. A+++++

We were in town for the bourbon trail, but I tend to rely on Yelp and Google reviews to help me find places to eat. Y'all did not let me down! The pizza was absolutely amazing, with fresh toppings, and just the perfect crust. Then on the bottom, with a little poof crust at the edges. I was greeted by Kayla, who is very friendly and easily recognized I had never been in before, lol! She walked me through how to order, and was just very kind. We tried the carnivore, because who doesn't love an all meat pizza? There's plenty of picnic tables for seating, and there's also a really pretty outdoor area where they have flowers and more tables. I will 100% return when back in the area in the fall, and I highly recommend you stop in and give them a try. We saw some people getting wings as we were finishing up, and those looked amazing too!
