Budley's

My girlfriend Caroline and I have eaten Budley’s takeout a few times but this was our first sit down meal in his restaurant at the Charlottetown Airport. Earl was very hospitable and easy to talk to, and we enjoyed the banter before placing an order for the evening. Caroline wanted an Aviator burger, and I was looking forward to the fish and chips. Caroline mentioned they offered a chocolate and banana milkshake, so we asked for that as well. Earl came back out to tell us that “Yes, we have no bananas, We have no bananas today!” Ah well, subbed in a strawberry shake in its place. I’ve had the fish as takeout, but getting it fresh and hot on my plate was fantastic, for the batter is a thin one, and perfectly done in my opinion. The review would lose a half star for bag fries, but Caroline’s Aviator burger was an incredible find that I am going to have to return for in the future that put that half star right back into the review. I ate my coleslaw and Caroline’s when she offered it up to me, and I would have easily have enjoyed twice as much as it’s that good. It was a lovely meal in a venue that Caroline and I never expected to find ourselves in, heading to the Airport for supper. Don’t forget to have your parking ticket validated before leaving the restaurant! Thanks for a great meal and chat! Best fish and chips in Charlottetown

Pleasant staff, however the kitchen must be terrible. We waiting 55 minutes for 4 breakfast orders from the time we ordered had been there 1 hr and 30 min total. Finally had to ask for it to go so we could get in security line. I had eggs Benedict with sauce on the side and it looked awful. Eggs over cooked, English muffin soggy and not buttered.

The only restaurant at the Charlottetown airport & is before going through security. There is another Budleys that is after security but is not a full service restaurant so the menu is limited. I opted for the bowl of lobster chowder & my husband had the Aviator burger. The chowder which came with a homemade biscuit was pretty good. It had a lot of lobster throughout. My husband said his burger was amazing. I didn't have any but it did look real good. I had some of his french fries and it was so crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Our food came out pretty quickly. We were a bit worried based on other reviews but had no issues.

Diner inside the Charlottetown airport. Service was friendly and fast, especially given how busy they were. Serving take out orders for coffee and baked goods, as well as sit down meals for breakfast lunch and dinner. All day breakfast option was great - 2 eggs, bacon, potatoes, toast, & coffee for 10.99. Would definitely return.

First time having breakfast here. It exceeded expectations. The food was awesome and a good value for money. The service was top notch and the coffee is quite good. Will definitely be back soon.Food: 5/5

In terms of the actual meal, Budley’s offers your standard casual small airport fare—nothing fancy. However, I was impressed by the generous portion size, and I thoroughly appreciated the staff’s willingness to modify my order to meet my several dietary restrictions. It was nice to have a salad with spinach instead of just lettuce, and the pan-fried PEI potatoes were a comfort food that hit the spot. The staff also kept me aware of changes to my flight as alI was eating, and didn’t roll their eyes when I double and triple-confirmed that my meal was allergen-free. Great service!

Food was a little pricey for the amount that was given. Also quality of food wasn’t the greatest my pancakes tasted like they were cooked on a dirty pan or flattop. Service was super slow, nobody had even realized we were there until about ten minutes later. Received the food and waited another ten minutes just to get drinks. Drinks also came in the smallest glass ever was about the size of two shot glasses.

Friendly staff and not just for air travellers. Great menu and tasty.

Service and food were fabulous. They also validate your parking. Had the lobster chowder and lobster roll. Everything was excellent

Great food at very fair prices with friendly service, first time there but will not be the last!! Everyone in my party enjoyed their meals
