Bud's Food & Drink

So, we went back to Buds recently to give them 1 more chance. This time the food was delicious!  Their French onion soup was once again fantastic!  Everyone I was with enjoyed their food also!  I don't know what happened since our last visit but, welcome back Buds!! We'll be back! :)

So what do we compare Bud's to in Schoolcraft??  Wendy's?  Some diner up the street??  Nope...point is there's nothing really in the area to compare it to.  But since I'm willing to travel for good food, I'm also comparing it to Portage restaurants.  Verdict:

Food: Above average, seems to be mostly homemade.  
Price: Below Average.  For what you get, definitely will have me coming back.
Ambiance:  Dive bar / small town pub.  Makes you feel part of the community.  
Service: We went on Patty's day and it was slow, borderline annoying slow.  However, I was paying attention to the other tables and it appeared the problem was my server.
Kid Friendly: Absolutely, except after 8 or so.  There was a band or karaoke going one night which made it tough for a 2 year old.

As for Gayle's review, I really hate to ding Bud's on this.  Yeah it might be one of the only watering holes in Schoolcraft and yes, it's the bartenders job to kick people out in his condition, but I wouldn't be so easy to jump to conclusions about an establishment because of one Jack Ass.

Very annoyed! Ate dinner at Bud's Bar in Schoolcraft, and we were accosted by a belligerent, drunk "local" (as he loudly informed whomever was listening several times) So awkward and uncomfortable, and not a great way to spend your mealtime. It will be awhile before I want to go to Bud's again. :(
