🦒 Happy Wednesday, y’all!
We’ve been hearing Gracie the Giraffe has been making her way all over San Antonio… and sure enough, she stopped by Bud Jones today. 😂
We got her fitted with a Bud Jones hat, fed her a good meal, and sent her on her way before anyone came looking for her.
If you happen to spot her again, tell her we’re saving her a booth. 🦒❤️
In the meantime, come see us for lunch, dinner, and all your Bud Jones favorites!

What people say
American restaurants are known for their hearty portions, delicious comfort food, and friendly service. Bud Jones Restaurant on Sw Military Drive in San Antonio embodies all of these qualities and more.
Founded by Bud Jones over 54 years ago, this diner has become a staple in the community. Originally serving fish and chips out of an old grocery store, Bud's dedication to good food at a fair price quickly gained him a loyal following. Even during tough times, such as a devastating fire in 1978, the support of his customers helped him get back on his feet.
Today, Bud's daughter Kathy continues to carry on the family tradition with the same commitment to quality and service. The menu is filled with classic American dishes like burgers, fried chicken, and meatloaf - all made with fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection.
What sets Bud Jones Restaurant apart from other diners is their dedication to their employees. Many have been with them for over 40 years, which speaks volumes about the positive work environment they provide.
If you're looking for a taste of classic American cuisine served with a side of warm hospitality, look no further than Bud Jones Restaurant on Sw Military Drive in San Antonio.
