Buddy’s Parfait: A Small-Town Favorite in the Heart of Moorhead

Tucked right off the corner of 20th Street by the train underpass in Moorhead, Buddy’s Parfait has quickly become a go-to spot for families, friends, and local teams looking for great food and even better company. Now in their second season as owners, the family behind Buddy’s Parfait has one simple mission: create a small-town experience in a growing city—not just through their food and ice cream, but through the welcoming atmosphere they’ve built for the community.

From the moment you walk up, it’s easy to see why people keep coming back. Buddy’s Parfait prides itself on homemade-style food, friendly service, and classic ice cream treats that bring a sense of nostalgia along with every order. Even the ingredients reflect their commitment to the community—all of their beef is purchased from local beef farmers, supporting the region while serving up fresh, quality burgers.

For the owners, the most rewarding part of running Buddy’s Parfait isn’t just the food—it’s the connections they’ve built. They love seeing families return week after week, local sports teams celebrating wins together, and neighboring businesses showing their support. Add in time spent working alongside family and a team of amazing employees, and Buddy’s Parfait has become more than just a place to eat—it’s a place where the community gathers.

What to Try

If you’re stopping by for the first time, there are a few favorites you won’t want to miss.

• Buddy Burger – A local favorite made with fresh, locally sourced beef

• Walking Taco – A fun, classic fair-style meal

• Fries – Perfectly crispy and great with their popular queso

• Taco Fries – A newer menu item already getting great reviews

• Boston Shake – A shake on the bottom with a sundae on top for the ultimate treat

And of course, you can’t visit Buddy’s without trying the banana split, which one customer described perfectly.

“Banana split so good, it’s going to make you fall in love! This dessert is next-level delicious. From the perfectly ripe bananas to the creamy scoops of ice cream, every bite feels like pure happiness. The toppings were just right—gooey chocolate sauce, fluffy whipped cream, and that classic cherry on top. It’s nostalgic, indulgent, and absolutely worth every calorie. I might be emotionally attached now.”
