Good food service and a nice clean restaurant I would recommend this place to everybody who loves to eat some good soul food
Amazing food. Settled in a little village type setting called Casey Jones Village. Cute little gift shop with lots of things to choose from. Something for everyone from the itty bitty to the old timers. Friendly employees. Similar to Cracker Barrel but better food, more room & all you can eat. Great atmosphere. Good service. Stopped on the way to our destination & on the way back.
Being a guy who often travels around for work and having to eat by myself, I tend to eat a lot of buffets. Guy eating by himself in a restaurant or a bar comes across as creepy. But a fat dude by himself at a buffet? It's not only commonplace, but maybe even becomes sympathetic. Anyways, all this actually means is I typically have to settle for eating trash every night. That's until today, at least. Everything was shot, fresh, and constantly rotating. Absolutely nothing felt frozen, instant, or from the can. You can probably just alternate full plates of Mac N Cheese with Mashed potatoes and gravy, and leave completely happy. Possibly the best buffet I've been to.
Stopped for dinner in early December '23 and it did not disappoint! Paid for the dinner and was seated in a wooden booth. Server quickly arrived - friendly and knowledgeable- took our drink order and told us to help ourselves to the buffet. Most items did not need name cards..... although it would be nice .... Everything hot and tasty. We will stop again and try breakfast buffet! Had ice cream in the ice cream shoppe with every kind of candy known with a number of them hard to find. Then strolled the store - which has many items as you can imagine from Card and keychains to t-shirts and winter hats ! Great experience and will return !
This is the original Old Country Store! It's the best buffet you're going to find in a 100 mile radius. Their breakfast buffet is always made fresh and it's as if your grandmother is in the kitchen cooking it all-- just the way you like it. The wait staff is extremely friendly and attentive. Unlike most buffets, this one is also priced just right. I'm happy to give them an A recommendation. If you haven't had the original Old Country Store, you're missing out.
This location is a tried and true. Food always delish and service just as good. We always stop by here when we are in the area or just coming on purpose. There is a train museum on site. And other little shops and stuff to explore. Inside you will find an old fashion candy store and ice cream shop. And the deli on the other side serves the same buffet food for the to-go crowd. I love the ambience of the old county style of days gone by.
