what we bring to the table:
Best Value, Guaranteed!
You won't find a better all-you-can-eat deal anywhere. We stand head and shoulders above the quality of big chain competitors and cheaper Chinese buffets, and unlike them, we can guarantee a clean environment and genuine Southern hospitality.
We're here to make an honest living, not nickel and dime you. Water, iced tea, lemonade, coffee, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, Mug Root Beer, Mountain Dew, Orange Fanta, Fruit Punch, and Sobe Water are free with any buffet purchase.
Home Cooking. Really.
Our longtime cooks have been preparing some of the same crowd-pleasing recipes for over a decade. The Nelson family guarantees you that not one single vegetable will ever come from a can except for the potatoes in our Pot Roast and the tomatoes in our Okra & Tomatoes. The salad bars are fresh, never frozen. Our fried foods are hand-battered, and our steaks are carved in-house. We make our own puddings and bake our own cookies and cobblers. Ok, so the ice cream is soft serve, but it's 100% dairy, and nobody's ever seemed to mind much...
Weekend Breakfast Buffet
Every Saturday and Sunday starting at 8:00am, we have a seriously under-appreciated breakfast buffet. We have staples likes Scrambled Eggs, Sausage, and Bacon, but we also have homemade favorites like Biscuits & Gravy, Omelettes, French Toast, Pancakes, and some world-class Breakfast Potatoes. Not to mention one whole bar of Cereal, Pastries, and Doughnuts and another dedicated to Fresh-Cut Fruit. Featuring a selection of fruit juices. All for around 10 bucks.

Healthy Choices
- Despite our name, Barnyard is the perfect place for health-conscious eaters. We go light on the salt and let our guests season their food at the table so they can watch their sodium. We also offer sugar-free desserts.
- Baked Chicken and Baked Fish are offered alongside lots of green veggies and superfoods!
- At the Salad Bar, start off with a side caesar on chopped romaine and feta, or build the garden salad of your dreams! Start with a bed of fresh lettuce, then choose toppings like tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, mushrooms, onions, broccoli, black olives, pickled beets, banana peppers, pickled jalapeños, kosher pickle spears, ham, or egg. Dress your salad with Homemade Ranch, Blue Cheese, Italian, French, 1000 Island, Honey Mustard, Raspberry Vinagrette, or Oil & Vinegar. Finally, top it off with croutons, bacon bits, sunflower seeds, Craisins, cafe crackers, saltines, or wheat thins.
- We also feature cold treats like Watergate Salad, Carrot Raisin Salad, Pears, Peaches, Pineapples, Cottage Cheese, and Fresh-Cut Fruit Salad.
