Bug Description
I've installed Ubuntu Budgie on two separate machines now. The first time, it was a complete format reinstall. After everything installed, and I restarted, it asked me to remove teh usb drive and restart, and it was fine. But when I rebooted, it wouldn't get to grub. The fix was to copy the /boot/efi folder contents from the usb drive to the hard drive. After that, it worked fine.
The second install, seemed to go very well too. This time it was installed alongside an existing Windows. After removing the install media and restarting as instructed, it booted directly to Windows, with no Grub. I haven't solved this one yet.

Quick update. For the second machine, it was my Motherboard's Bios that was overriding the bootloader. I fixed that, and it works now.
So, only the first one failed to properly write the EFI files.
