This expansion marks the restaurant’s ongoing effort to diversify its offerings and appeal to a broader customer base.
The new menu additions will include a selection of smash burgers, featuring four double-patty options: classic, cheesy, BBQ, and spicy.

Alongside these savory options, Buddy’s Pizza is also introducing a limited-time beverage: the Faygo Rock & Rye Float. Set to launch in July, this sweet treat is made with Hudsonville vanilla ice cream paired with the popular Faygo Rock & Rye soda, providing a nostalgic nod to local flavors.
While these new items are being added, Buddy’s Pizza will continue to offer its existing burger selections, ensuring that fans of their traditional offerings still have options to choose from.
