After a long journey in the merchant marines and a master chef on a luxury cruise liner, Bud Jones came back to San Antonio and opened his Military Drive location. Taking direction from his fathers famous “Bob Jones Restaurant” on Roosevelt Avenue, he began his journey which has now lasted over 54 years. Once originally Walsh’s Grocery Store at the corner of Military and Commercial, Bud started s

erving fish and chips in October of 1958. The very day of the grand opening, he was so busy he excused himself from his customers, went out the back door and begged a lady hanging laundry to please come and help him. Bernice Housos continued to work here until she passed away in 2008. The building has gone through many changes and additions, including a devastating fire in 1978. With the generous help and understanding of customers through the years, Bud was up and running again in thirty days. In 1985, Bud’s daughter Kathy joined him and has committed to carry on the Bud Jones tradition. We base our success on good food for a fair price, the loyalty of our customers and the dedication of our employees, some of which have been with us for over 40 years.

🦒 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!
