We had a dinner meal at Friends 33 Buford Village Way. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. Although it was relaxed the service did not suffer. Our appetizers were on our table quickly. Our drinks were kept refilled. When our meals came out they smelled delicious and they tasted delicious. We shared some bites of others meals and everything tasted great. Our hostess,Lily checked on us to make sure everything was going well. I wish I could remember our servers name. Great family place and the sports are a great add on. We will be back read more

Bring back the voodoo juice! Thankfully whoever was working knew how to make it! Also, redo the menu with actual descriptions of the drinks. I don't want to order a drink that just says vodka but doesn't list the mixers! They have a new menu every time we come and seem to spend more money to change the menus than anything. The free birthday meal is a nice bonus! The Drinks were very slow coming out. The wings were good but barely any sauce on them. The pimento cheese wontons are amazing like always. read more

I was torn on this review because everyone there was very friendly. Nice location. The food was just OK. The menu is good with different choices but it was very greasy and heavily fried. Not very flavorful. Just mediocre really. I wouldn't go back. I did have a great time with my adult kids playing music bingo! Overall good experience but the food isn't good. Not horrible but a pass for me. read more

Wednesday night is BOGO wing night. We went with a group of 6. Didn't have to wait too long. Probably a dozen wing flavors. My favorite is the house and the honey siracha. They have $6 Long Island ice teas that are great. A regular go to in Buford. read more

We've been going to Friends in Buford for years now and I haven't Guly recommend it. I usually order their Cobb Salad and I get 3 meals out of it! Their wings are pretty good as well, and were from Buffalo. We've also had some large groups for lunch on the weekenda as well as playing Trivia, and never had any issues with service or food. Highly recommend them! read more

This is most definitely a bar not a restaurant. So if you want that then this would be the local Cheers for this area. Someone at the bar even had the bartender leave & go get food somewhere else to bring it back for him while I was in a hurry waiting for food. I got my food to go, once I had my 1st wing I realized they were so hard. After waiting for food to go for over 20 min i wasn't going back to argue about my 20$ meal for one person. My wings must have been forgotten about. Very disappointed because this was not my first visit and I wasn't very impressed the first couple of times I had been there with friends. Bar like atmosphere. read more

Love coming here! Food is always great and the staff are always friendly. Even when I want to add items to my order and make crazy concoctions, they go right along with it and make the food great! Thanks yall! read more

A very cozy place to have lunch with friends... especially if you're also going to watch a game! Friendly staff. Good food. Fun atmosphere. read more

I'm lucky that I live in Buford Village and have the opportunity to walk to Friends whenever I need to enjoy a great all around restaurant experience. From the wings to the burgers, Friends has wonderful food, great service and a friendly atmosphere to dine in. I would recommend Friends to all my friends and family. read more

First off our waitress (Lily) did an amazing job while we were there. Atmosphere was really good. Maybe the best hamburger I have ever eaten, and Lily made it a wonderful experience to eat at your RESTURANT! read more

Melia was a pleasure, love seeing her. The wings are great the environment is amazing!

I had a good experience at Friends. Avrianna made it amazing! Your customer service and delightful smile made my day! Thanks for being excellent at work! read more

This is now the favorite place to eat and watch a game. The food is perfect. Extremely good house chips and the best chicken caesar wrap in my life. The decor and vibe inside was also very cheerful, probably thanks to the excellent staff too. Thank you read more

Great Staff, Great Wings, and cold beer! Food is always served quickly and very consistent.

Friends- your management and policies have really declined. You're now charging your customers a service fee for using a card! The food, although usually consistently good, is overpriced already! The timing of food from the kitchen has been off. And the mystery manager is always hiding in the back. I had a simple request that I was willing to pay for and the manager said no, not our policy. This review should really be a 2 star but the wings are pretty good. read more

My food was ok , but there are lots of places that you can go eat and get the same kind of food with even better atmosphere. Our server Mallory was great very sweet the reason for the low score because this restaurant is cheap and when you're cheap I worry about you using cheap ingredients and cutting corners. They charge you a non-cash fee for using a credit card. honestly, what are they in the dinosaur ages? I don't like being nickeled and dime so I can go other places in this day and age 99% of the people pay in credit or debit who in the world walks around with a bunch of cash? I feel like this is just one more way of them adding a little bit more money. And when they're getting $.75 up on every check that comes through there that's quite a hefty little amount. Taking credit cards, it's just a way in the restaurant biz get with the times. read more

Friends Buford Grill - Seriously charging you to use a credit card? Just tacky. - Burgers Near Me - Buford, Georgia

The food was good, but my server Arden really made it special. They were very attentive and considerate. Will definitely be visiting again!

Kenny is the BEST chef ever. 10/10 recommend coming here for the chef. Also the bartender Noelany is a phenomenal bartender.

This is an amazing place with an amazing staff, my family, friends and I go here at least once a week. There are a very honest staff and treat you as family. read more

I work close by at NGPG building and order frequently from Friends. Today, so received my wontons with a solid frozen center. When I called to inform the restaurant they were so unconcerned and uncaring. We are allowed a 30 minute lunch break and work a 10 hour shift. She demanded I return the the frozen appetizer to prove it was frozen. Not interested.... Thanks for nothing. Will not support this business any longer. read more

This restaurant is amazing! the staff and owners are friendly and knowledgeable. Understanding this is a franchise, the franchise board should be ashamed of themselves! They should allow the owners of each individual business to run their business with restrictions but not as a dictatorship! I wanted food that is no longer available because of the "Dictators"... Boo on you. such a shame as their food is wonderful !! read more

I have been to and had good experience at Friends restaurant location in N GA for 10+ years. The new 3% charge for credit cards orders has changed that. Will not be going to Friends restaurant anytime soon. read more

Order was made to wrong location and we called w/in 3 mins to cancel the order. They refused. Horrible customer service! Waitress was nice and tried to correct order however the manager was VERY rude and could be heard yelling through the phone at his employee over the situation that was not her fault, she was just trying to figure out an option. read more

The best service around! Amanda at the bar is very friendly and welcoming! we were seated right away, we got our hot food even quicker than we expected. read more

We went in one night a few minutes before 9 and a last from the kitchen came in and told the hostess they turned the grill off and we can only have fried foods. We were like but you close at 11 right? As a owner I would not be happy to turn away a party of 10. Especially 2 hours before closing time on the weekend. read more

Friendly staff. Stopped in for a quick pint and had a nice chat. Looks like a fun place to watch college football. That's all I got.

I was there about 3 weeks ago with my family. It was after a funeral service, and we took over your patio. Your servers were amazing (and patient!) as trying to get us all "organized" was akin to herding a bunch of cats. That being said, I dream of your pimento cheese wontons. They were delicious. My wedge salad was really good, too. Everyone else seem to enjoy their food. read more

Visiting Georgia for a work event and we took our whole crew here. It was also trivia night. Everyone loved it! Ordered the pickle chips and the BBQ Pork nachos. read more

This is a great comfort food place, portions are gigantic, our food was fast and prompt, service was awesome as well, all plates were very good in taste and as mentioned very generous in portion size, there is plenty of parking outside, they have TV's all over the place so you can keep up with the world of sports as you have a beer and enjoy your food, the Polish hotdog I had had a pretzel bun and it was very good, the rest of the plates around the table looked as good and they all said they were delicious, will try them again soon. read more

I gave Friends grill another try because I'm a forgiving and optimistic person. Stupid me! Should have learned my 2 star lesson. Ordered 10 wings for $16 which was a little cray cray to begin with. They were the absolute worst wings I ever had. So over cooked you could hear from the other room when I bit into one. These wings were so dry you could see with your eyes ... didn't even have to taste them to know they were not going to be good. Disgusting and so over priced this should be a crime. I'm done with Buford Friends Grill ... officially unfriended! read more

Kool bar and grill in Buford. Lots of TVs to watch sports. I came here for lunch on a Friday. I ordered the Homecoming Bruger as a Beyond Burger But without the BBQ Brisket. They carry the Vegan patty, Beyond Burger. Let me tell you, this burger is legit. It rivals the other vegan burger, the Impossible Burger, that other local restaurants carry, but I believe this is the only restaurant that carries the Beyond Burger in the area so if you prefer that vegan burger then this a your spot! It had a yummy charbroiled meaty flavor, top shelf stuff. Also tried the Thai shrimp app...also very good, definitely recommend! I sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly and service was on point, definitely will be returning. Also, If your looking for vegan options on a menu that are not just salads and fries then this is the place for you! read more

Friendly people, great prices, better food! Staff and bartenders are absolutely amazing. Highly recommend! read more

We had a decent first experience. Went for lunch (2 kids, 2 adults) last Saturday and the crowd was pretty light. We enjoyed the Bada-Bing shrimp appetizer. Our sandwiches were pretty good and standard. Service was good. However, the place could use a little better cleaning, but we understand right now with staffing that's easier said than done. Overall, it was a pretty good experience and we'd likely go back to dine again. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this place. The name gave me "freezer food" vibes but the boneless wings I got were huge, full of flavor and handmade. I worked as a vendor at a festival across the street and my husband brought me lunch from here. I ate two meals out of it and can't wait to go again. read more

I ordered a veggie burger and got served a vision burger. Not much else to say. It took me a couple bites to figure out.

Food was great. Trivia was super fun. Drinks were super good and the service was amazing! Would definitely come back again!

A great place to get some food. Kids had Bacon Cheese Burgers and they both liked them a lot. Wife had the chicken wrap, "tasty". I had the Knickerbocker and it was great. Friend says the Trash Talk Nachos are to die for. Kids eat free Sundays which is always great. read more

Ask for Elyssa. I feel like one of my last posts was in Italy () but she is THE vibe and was key in making the experience the experience. If you're in the area - def stop by! Lastly, it's a Buckeye bar, O-H! read more

The best wings around ! Friendly service and a fun atmosphere . Would definitely recommend
