The restaurant open to great excitement in Daventry in 2012, and at the time created some 25 jobs for the town.

The chain is well known its burgers and decorating its diners with New York and pop-culture inspired memorabilia.

Simpsons Catering began their ownership of Buddies USA in late 2018 by launching a new 'slimmer' version of its burger menu - before returning to a larger 'version two' menu after a mixed-response by customers.
