Celebrating 16 years serving the Best Pizza in Frankfort!

Welcome to Buddy’s Pizza. We’re a family restaurant, so feel free to bring the kids. We offer a wide variety of delicious choices for your dining pleasure. Next time you’re in town, stop by and see what we’re all about. Yes, we do serve the best pizza in Frankfort, but our other options are just as good!

Now serving Pasta and Lasagna every day. Check for our Daily Pasta Specials!

See our Menu!

We appreciate your business, and hope to see you soon. But we work really hard six days a week to make the best pizza in town, so we take Sundays off! We’re also closed weekdays from 2:30 to 4:30..

What’s New?

You can try our awesome calzone. If you’ve never had a calzone, you’re in for a real treat. It’s like a stuffed pizza sandwich. It’s big and it’s tasty! Calzones are especially popular up in Jersey, where Italian-Americans are plentiful and you can find authentic Italian food on almost every street corner.

Buddy’s is Frankfort’s best lunch value:

It’s 11:30 a.m. and you’re hungry. Stop by Buddy’s for a huge slice of the best pizza in Frankfort, a tossed salad and a bottomless soft drink for just $7.75. Amazing! Or try out our Wings & Pizza Special: One large slice, three wings and a fountain drink for $8.50. Still hungry or not that hungry? Get a single slice – either cheese only or meat, for just $3.25 plus tax.

Build your own 12″ or 16″ pizza with our selection of toppings, including pepperoni, Italian sausage, hamburger, bacon, ham, salami, red onions, green peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, green olives, black olives, pineapple, spinach, banana peppers and jalapenos. Or add your choice of specialty toppings for just $2 more – these are grilled chicken, meatballs, artichoke hearts, and feta cheese.

Having a party?

So, a few of your office mates have suggested that everyone go out to celebrate a special occasion. Well, come on over to Buddy’s, where our Great Dane is likely to feed the whole gang. Imagine this: A 22” pizza overflowing with melted Mozzarella and your choice of toppings. We assure you that the Great Dane can satisfy all of your pizza cravings. But you’ll have to eat it here, because the Great Dane will hardly fit through the door!

Do you have a birthday or an event coming up? Let us handle all of your party needs. Either have the party here or you can pick them up. Love hot wings? Try our new Kettle Wings as a great tasting meal, snack or party food!

About Buddy’s

Buddy’s is owned by Mike Hedden, a graduate of Santa Rosa Junior College in California. Although he’s been cooking for more than 25 years, Mike has been tossing the best pizza in Frankfort since 2006. Mike and his staff would be delighted to cook one up especially for you and your family. Every pizza is hand made with the freshest ingredients and great attention to detail. Our pizzas are the best in town, hands down!

So, if Mike’s the owner, who’s Buddy?

We’re glad you asked! The restaurant is named after Buddy, a dog owned by one of Mike’s college roommates at the University of Kentucky. Buddy’s opened its doors June 16, 2006, and we’re well known around Frankfort as being particularly friendly to dog lovers. We invite you to drop in and take a look at our wall full of framed pictures of our customers’ beloved K-9s. In fact, the next time you stop by, bring a framed picture of your own best four-legged friend and we will hang it on our K-9 Wall of Fame! Then enjoy a toast (and a pizza, of course) in your buddy’s honor!

The sweetheart that answered the phone tonight (8/23/2024 @7 ish pm) I didn’t catch her name but she was so so NICE! I know that sounds maybe silly but when the experience starts off with a warm, friendly, funny person in a good mood- that’s RARE and so so important in making a wonderful experience! So thank you happy, Ma’am. You made my night better!

I absolutely love Buddy’s Pizza. My wife and I went to Buddy’s last week for the first time not even knowing about it or how good the reviews are. We had our dog with us and they loved him. Gave him water and some treats! The pizza and the service was amazing! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a great Pizza place in the Frankfort area.

Pro: Highly recommended. Great pizza and the best calzones in the area. Great service, friendly atmosphere.

Con: Parking can be an issue especially if anything is going on downtown. Frustrating doing a carry out and having to park far away. Other than that, no complaints.

Prices not the cheapest but not the most expensive. Fantastic and very friendly staff/service… TRY the giant pepperoni pizza. Parking can be an issue and kind of hard to find for those from out of town, but the food is great. If you bring them a framed photo of your dog they’ll put it up on the wall too. 🙂
