Buddy's Burgers To Open 2nd Location In Round Rock

ROUND ROCK, TX — One of Austin's newest popular burger joints will be opening a second location in Round Rock later this year.

Buddy's Burger, which offers all-natural and freshly made burgers every day, has officially signed a contract to open a second location on the corner of Sunrise and Old Settlers Boulevard.

The restaurant will be built from the ground-up and is slated to open in late 2022, officials said in a news release on Tuesday.

The original Buddy's Burger location at 9001 Cameron Road first opened in 2020 by twins and UT Austin Alumni, Zain and Isha Fidai, and their cousin, Saad.

When the three relatives opened the eatery, they wanted to share their family's recipe for the fresh, hand formed 100 percent angus beef burgers they've been sharing with their own family and friends since 1999.

The new locations will continue to serve the staple menu items, handspun milkshakes and everyone's favorite seasoned fries and Smack Sauce, officials said.

"We're so grateful for the support we've received from the community since opening during the pandemic. This is what has allowed us to successfully expand to a second location and share our family's fresh, handmade burger recipe with more people,"co-owner Isha Fidai said. "This second location is also a big step towards our overall goal to open multiple locations throughout Central Texas - and beyond!"
