Bud’s Jolly Kone

The best burger stand I personally have ever been too! Every time it is almost service with a smile, really short waiting time and good food!

Definitely a staple in Red Bluff! The milkshakes are yummy and the employees are always super nice!

This Bud’s Jolly Kone is the best soft serve burger stand I’ve ever been to! The service by the fun perky girls on staff here are just part of the reason to come here. If I was a guy, I would be coming here as often as I could! Nice service here is such a contrast to the awful grumpy service I got over in Chester CA at the cone place there. Fun and competent will make anyone come back. They make it seem like they actually enjoy their job and talking to customers here as opposed to whatever Ickky Cone place that was in Chester.
Service will only get you so far, and the food has to be as good as the service. Here the food IS as good as the service. The food comes out in a timely manner and you are asked if you would like any extras (no charge) like their special sauce or extra mayo or whatever. I got the #2 meal deal, a double burger, served with a large fries and a med drink (20 oz.). I decide to eat on the nice picnic tables provided out back. There is a super clean restroom to used as well! The fries were hot as crispy shoestring type, my double burger with everything was wrapped in a little burger baggie and nice and hot. You can get a free refill on your drink as well, so that’s nice. My burger was very tasty and hit the spot. It’s not a super huge monster burger like at a fancy brew pub, but it didn’t cost $ 14.00 either … just around $ 7.00 for everything! The picnic area is clean, and if it’s too hot to be outside, this being Red Bluff (110 F. in the summer), you can eat in the air conditioned restaurant.
This is a super convenient place to stop as it right on the south side of Highway 36 heading East towards Lassen out of Red Bluff. Come for the super friendly attractive service and stay for the food too!

Can’t say I understand the appeal here… nostalgia? Maybe I hv t/​b a local to truly appreciate wht there is to offer here. All in all, I opted for a strawberry malt and was pleased to get a burger for an additional 50cents. Not, WOWED, but, pleased I was able to try the food. Can’t say I’d ever do it again. Greeeasy, and regretted it later. YIKES!
As for everything else, I really didn’t see the appeal.

This is a place to go anytime of the year if you want a quick bite to eat. They have burgers that are a great price and so much better then any fast food burger in town. I LOVE there chili fries. And of course during the summer they have a great selection of milkshakes and great soft serve. It has a small dinning area inside but I prefer to order outside and sit outside because there is plenty of shade. They have a really great special sauce that tastes great with the tater tots. The staff is always friendly and seem happy to be working there. I love this place and always recommend it to anyone that thinks that IN n OUT is the best burger in California because I prefer Buds.
