Various different burgers. Servers are very polite Fries are excellent. No outdoor seating o drinks but its still good read more

Food is amazing but prices are Insane. a double cheeserburger the smallest fries and their smallest drink is $30!!!! I could get 2 burgers that come with fries and a drink for probably less at any local restaurant while actively being served by a server! On top of that it took 20 minutes for a burger and fries. i've literally came to my friends job hopes on the grill with no experience and cooked a burger and fries faster. They could probably lower there prices if they fire the 4/5 employees that don't do anything. brandy is the only one who does her job. read more

This was....FABULOUS. Quite a fun surprise -- we were literally only here because there are high speed EV chargers adjacent, and our meat-eater wanted a burger. So what the heck. It's unassuming and as original a menu as you can get within the burger genre. The vegheads in our party had to settle for grilled cheese and fries, because that's literally all they have without meat except for the three bean veg burger, but they were EXCELLENT. The meat-eater really liked his Yard Burger, which was a ton of stuff piled on top. But you can also get just a plain hamburger and a plain cheeseburger, nothing else added! The bread and buns were really fresh. The vibe here is industrial chic, but I think this is unaffectedly so and perhaps unintentional. This location is squirreled into a kind of shotgun-shack retail space, very narrow -- just enough room for one layer of seats opposite the counter and kitchen, so you can see all the action. No frills, but not shabby at all. This location has entrances front and back, which was good for us and allowed more light than you might expect to come in. Excellent restrooms. We quite enjoyed it and wished we'd had the appetite for shakes. Some unusual items: first off, they have a lambburger. Lamb is fabulous or at least it was before I was made into a veghead. It's really great they offer it. The other great unique item was Harney and Sons ICED TEA in a bottle, which I've never seen outside of Millerton NY (where Harney's is located.) One of us had the black tea, the other green tea. It was not overly sweetened, and was just really high quality. I'm not sure I've ever quite had an iced tea from a bottle quite this good. The staff were also wonderful. All in all such a pleasant experience we are now going to plan our travels up and down the Northway with this place in mind, as long as we have a carnivore in the party. read more

The Most RUDE Staff (all 3 ) Ive ever experienced. Stood for 10 minutes waiting to order (no one else but 4 of us standing there waiting) finally I asked CAN WE GET SOME HELP? One girl scooping ice cream in cups right in front of us barely turned and said "we're busy, you'll have to wait!".......like we were bothering her. I will guaranteed we won't trouble you again .... because... WE WILL N E V E R be Back !!!!! read more

The hamburger was raw. Could not eat...threw it away. It was undercooked and raw. Would not recommend. The frys were good

This is THE spot to grab a bite to eat in the area. Industrial and clean with limited seating inside. Everything is delish. We've had the burgers dozens of times. Always excellent- fresh meat, great bun sauce toppings. This time I had the dirty bird. It was excellent and huge. My family loves the milkshakes- but I never had enough appetite to have one of those too! read more

$22 for 2 burgers at a kiosk asking for a tip. Waited 20 minutes while waitress brought our food and left it with customers at a different table. One of them opened a burger and 5 minutes later, the waitress collected them and brought them to serve us. Nope. Not eating that and not waiting another 20 minutes. read more

Natural real tasty burgers fries chicken sandwiches. And the shakes are great. Good spot with ez parking

I didn't really know what to expect when going here. I ordered 2 small fries, chicken nuggets, and a dirty bird chicken sandwich. The amount of food I received was insane! I barely even ate half of it. The fries were delicious, though a bit greasy, and were even better when dipped in bbq sauce. The dirty bird had a tasty purple cabbage slaw and delicious cheese. The bun was super soft and flavorful. Though the nuggets looked like they would be overly crispy and mostly breading, they weren't at all. They were absolutely delicious! The restaurant is small, but has a good bit of seating. The staff member working the register was very patient with me as I took some time to look over the menu before ordering. Everything was served in a timely manner and was hot and fresh. I highly recommend checking them out, especially if you are someone who appreciates restaurants that support local farms. read more

Before I get to the food there is already a problem. I almost never knock a casual place for ambiance or slightly rude staff but in this case I'll make an exception. They were blasting really awful country music. Blaring to the point we couldn't carry on a conversation. And it was the old school country like "Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the Goalposts of Life" stuff. Ruins one's appetite. A recurring theme with me - really bland off-brand ketchup. Just tells me you are more interested in saving $1.89 on a bottle of ketchup than in a quality dining experience. The burger was under-seasoned but the meat was good and plenty juicy. The fresh cut fries were better than average. This is not a huge deal for me because I don't typically drink sodas but all they have is some kind of local drink. No name brand sodas. That is fine but I have found local sodas to be wildly erratic so it is a crapshoot there. So, the meal itself was pretty good. Under different circumstances I would have given it four stars. Just couldn't overcome the other problems. If it had been one problem they would have gotten away from it. So, if you are on the road and none of the things above bother you, by all means, stop by. read more

TLDR; Terrible burgers made to be health-conscious (grass-fed, gluten free, locally sourced, etc.); amazing fries tho! This was a stop by after hiking upstate. I appreciated the effort to provide top ingredients but the flavor about every dish was a complete letdown (except for their fries). Order at the countertop at the front and seat yourself at the table with your number. When ready the staff brought out the food. Original Bun (2/5): The original quarter pounder texture was off and had no taste had it not been accompanied with the Bun Sauce that provided some sort of flavor. Dirty Bird (2/5): The breading to the chicken was done well with a great flavor and crunch. However, the chicken itself was very stringy (woody breast). Thereby indicating the low quality of meat that was sourced. Fries (5/5): I asked for the fries well done and they delivered! The fries are very skinny and had a lovely saltiness and crunch to them. The bucket it plenty to share between 2.5 people. read more

I enjoy salty fries but what we encountered here was inedible. Returned them and asked them to be taken off. Refunded a single order instead of the larger size we had returned. Encountered rude staff at another location (Kingston) Will not visit this chain again. read more

We all (4) enjoyed our burgers and birds. One daughter and I had a Dirty Bird special and my other daughter and wife had a burger. One large fry was enough for the four of us! The special sauces were great and the pickles delicious. Both girls had an Adirondack Shake (one vanilla and one chocolate). And both enjoyed them. My wife and I didn't care much for the diet pop- which lacked flavor and was too fizzy. We'd come back and recommend friends and family! read more

I see where they get their name buns, all buns, no meat. Ordered yard bird-ger it had the Thinest piece of chicken I've ever seen. Wife and kids ordered cheeseburgers, I tried a bite. and it reminded me of cafeteria burgers when I was in grade school. French fries were just a pile of broken pieces of fries. Lady at the counter was not very pleasant. Safe to say we won't be returning. read more

We popped into Buns while upstate for a trip to Saugerties. It is very conveniently located - we drove right by it after picking up groceries. The service was good and the restaurant was clean. That said, I don't know that I'd want to eat inside. It seemed like more of a takeout spot, though they did have seating available, with an industrial vibe. The burgers were delicious as were the fries! I also loved that they had fountain soda from a small distributor - Boylan Bottling. The only thing I didn't like was the fry sauce that I paid an upcharge for - no one in my group liked it, do not recommend. read more

Would go again - Buns Burgers is in a small town so it will be difficult for anyone outside the area to find it yet alone go here. I found it while I was on a trip to Albany, NY. I was deciding between a 3 or 4 stars. Although the burger was quite tasty and was setup good, there wasn't anything special to it. It seems they source the meat from a local farm so that's what have it the 4 stars. It tastes like a quality normal burger. There are a few other options that look interesting but I was in the mood for a burger. The fries were tasty as well. One of the better side of fries from a burger place. Don't forget the bun sauce for something unique to this place. It tastes like a mix of ketchup, mayo, and horseradish? Regardless, it goes well with the fries. They have a small parking lot upfront, which should be enough for the visitors given the location. The interior is casual and has a bar and farm style. The design seems to go well with the local style. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! Driving through the area we stopped in for dinner. Our group ordered the buns burgers, dirty bird chicken sandwich, fries, sodas, and milkshakes. Everything was made perfectly and tasted amazing. Employees were friendly and got the food out fast. They sell bottles of their zesty mayo that we are bringing home as well. You can't go wrong coming here. read more

Excellent stop off the thruway. The veggie burger was so yummy. My family got the burgers and a chicken sandwich, all raved about each bite. The fries were perfect. Counter service was pleasant, service was prompt and the place has a rustic vibe. read more

I'm always glad to patronize independent burger joints and small chains (Buns Burgers is currently a chain of two). It's even better if they offer some items on the menu I find really interesting, and in this case there were a couple. One was milkshakes made with ice cream from local favorite Adirondack Creamery. I was hoping one of the flavors on their menu would be a Pumpkin Pie milkshake, not so, but vanilla was just as good. This is what a milkshake is supposed to be like - ice cream, milk, no frothy whipped cream, no toppings. Boom. Done. The other is that lamb burger. Oh my goodness is that good. It comes with lettuce, tomato, onion, and either a tzatziki sauce or a tzatziki-like sauce, but it certainly enhanced the taste. I try not to order burgers where the sauce is what makes it tasty, but for this one, I'll make an exception. A side salad costs the same as a small order of fries, $3, but it's only a bowl of greens with a dressing. It was still pretty good. The seasonal salad, at $8, looks to be a better deal, and they list the seasonal extras on a board at the counter. You can also add your favorite meat topping for a few dollars more, making it a meal without the bun. This would also be a convenient meal option if you're traveling on the Thruway, located right at the Saugerties exit. At least for me, I'd rather spend a little more for a better burger and meal than I might get at the plaza a few miles to the north. read more

The best kind of fast food! Buns may have a funny name and you can blink and miss it because of its location, however it offers pretty good food. The inside has a very slick, industrial look that doesn't match the sign outside even slightly. From the open kitchen to the tall ceilings, the space feels larger than it is. Service has always been friendly and fast every time I've visited. Prices are good as is, and when you get the food they appear even more favorable. The go-to burger is pretty much exactly what you want in a fast food burger. It is greasy, has a nice secret sauce, good lettuce/tomato/pickles, and the patty has good flavor. My only gripes are that the patties are a bit thin alone but too much when you make it a double, and the bun (ironically) doesn't always hold up to everything. Part of the reason for the latter is that it is toasted and buttery (sometimes too much so, which can backfire. My wife likes the fried chicken sandwich, and the grilled chicken sandwich gets ordered in my house to positive reviews as well (yes, 2 chicken sandwiches). Fries are nice and crisp with a huge portion (think 5 guys-style, put it in a bucket, put the bucket in a bag, then fill the bag). Salad was also stellar the one time I got it, with really fresh greens and great dressing. Only got a shake once, but I enjoyed it. Guys: please buy a new sign? Pretty please? I know nothing about design, but I would be happy to scribble something on a napkin for ya. Your food is really good and I don't mean to be rude, but it is needed so more people can try you out. Will keep an eye out. read more

It was ok, a regular burger though, cooked perfectly. Fries were too salty for my taste and I ended up throwing it. Good prices for what your getting and nice service too. read more

Bad customer service. Be kinder to customers when there is a mistake it goes a long way. As someone who has been a manager and owner of an establishment for years you get more flies with honey than vinegar, over cooked fries every-time!!!!! read more

Yum yum yum! The burgers were delicious- juicy, fresh, appropriate size, cooked to perfection. The Bun sauce adds beautifully to the overall flavor. All ingredients are fresh. The fries were super delicious- small cut, tasted like dipped in butter before frying. A bucket of fries was perfect for 4. And they even had Harney & Sons green iced tea! People working there were lovely and so helpful. Quiet atmosphere with real wood with iron tables, super clean. Just an overall outstanding experience! Please come open a location in eastern PA. read more

Burgers are good. Fries were amazing. The local draft beer made the meal even better.

Delicious burgers and yard birdger; tasty fries. Higher end burger joint that delivers on flavor and quality. Not inexpensive ($70 for 4 sandwiches, bucket of fries and bevs), but if you're looking for burgers that are not fast food, this is a worthy contender. read more

We came to buns absolutley starving after a hike and it was exactly what we needed. Fresh, delcious and so many options! They even had gluten free buns which is so hard to find and so amazing for someone with celiacs, i was able to enjoy a whole burger!! Also grab a milkshake, you'll thank me! Thanks Buns! read more

Edit: travel time was 7 minutes. Saugerties location. I'm sure the other locations are capable of producing a better product. Hopefully. I guess when you order two original buns, one with buns sauce and one without, they put the sauce from the one with out sauce on top of the one that already has sauce. Basically I pick up this food, drive home and open the package to buns sauce pouring all over the place. There is practically no bottom bun, just sauce. Maybe that's why they call it buns sauce??? read more

I had the chicken. Thin cut of dark meat. Tough & poorly cooked. The quality of the shoestring fries was fair at best. Ironically, McDonald's is next door and their fries are much better. If you are going to be absolutely objective- you will get better food next door at Mickey D's. read more

We had a burger plus a lamb burger. Shared fries. OHHHH! So delicious. I loved the sauce on my lamb burger. I would have enjoyed it with my fries. Good find! read more

This is much better than my local McDonald's, most likely due to the fact that they are in the NY Metro market and they do not have a play space. I cannot give a perfect review because no McDonald's is perfect anymore; burgers, fish filet, chicken; all are lukewarm at best. 6 piece nuggets warm, not hot. Mind you, they were free as part of their rewards program, but that is irregardless. Now more than ever I mobile order everything, especially when I'm out. Less hassle, wait times are acceptable. Yellow jackets were swarming when dining outside; a nice option, today was a beautiful day, almost ruined because of yellow jackets. Always busy due to Thruway access from NYC and points south. read more

Great local chain -- a little on the $$ side, but you get what you pay for. High quality ingredients, extremely consistent and flavorful. One of the best burgers around + excellent fries. Really good seasonal salad, too, if you're doing low carb (I like to add lamb to it). Boylan's soda on tap is a bonus. Can't go wrong here. read more
