Im sorry to say, we thought you were going out of business because every aspect has seriously gone down hill recently. We use to go a couple times a week , but the last several times weve been there, it is filthy, greasy carpets, very little food available most of the time. We use to be able to count on staples like meatloaf, pot roast, steak. Now most of the time you only have weird stuff arrangements in little dishes. Ice cream machine broken half the time, Chocolate milk is always empty, and restaurant is filthy. We havent been there in 2 months now, and have started going to their cleaner competitor with tons more food options. It is a shame, we loved them before. everything is pointing to you going out of business, at least that is how we felt. We stuck to the floor while walking around the desert bar, and then also the carpet by the old front door squished with grease when we walked on it going to our table. We totally lost our appetite. Sorry to have to say these things, because we use to brag to everyone about you,NOW, weve just stopped going. Maybe you will fix these issues and get your regulars back. Sincerely!

Compared to before the "upgrade" we would be there a lot. Now, its maybe once every two months. OCB always has an offer every month if you sign up for their emails. Which if I go I always take advantage of. They have family nights on Thursdays which means kids up to 11yrs price at $1.99, offer cannot be combined with coupons though :(, and they use the event room for coloring and such. I find that the food choices are not as much as they used to be. However, they have chicken, fish, pork. A salad bar. Dessert section, including ice cream and frozen yogurt. They have the Coca Cola dispensing machine for multiple choices like Mello Yellow. Icee, Coffee and reg milk for kids. Seating are long booths or chairs. Now, Ive been to their breakfast and it was fair. The syrup was watered down. Thats what I mostly remember about breakfast but we had a lot of food before going to Dorney Park. :) Wish they would bring the steak back. We always leave full!

I love a bargain and quality service, Here I get both !. I even joined them via text and I love the deals and discounts I get. There food and service is excellent. I have always have a great time. I love introducing my friends and family to this restaurant. great atmosphere for kids and adults. Selections of food is great. All other buffet style restaurants dont compare. I go to a Chinese buffet im hungry in an hour and not fully satisfied. and sometimes cost more than OCB, while a trip to OCB is like every holiday in my house, Your full for hours and craving it for days. Love OCB and recommend to everybody !!

I used to go to the Old Country Buffet in Warrington, but that one closed way back in 2006 and became the lesser-known Easton Buffet. I had to travel to Whitehall to get my buffet fix. I think it was really worth it, considering how bad the food is at Easton Buffet. I love their self-service slushie machines, not to mention their salad bar. I drank nearly 4 slushies in one sitting, but hey, why not, its a buffet! I loved it here and hope to be able to return soon. The only thing I dont like is their seafood, but look, old country buffet is known for all-american food, anyway, so why am I to point fingers! :-)

Have Been Going For Lunch Weekly For @ Least 15 Years. Patti, Shelly, & Michelle Are Great & Give Good Service. FOOD IS NOT SO GOOD! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PULLED PORK, HAMBURGERS IN GRAVY, BEEF STEW POTS ???? I Am Not Able To Find Any Good Food To Eat. Dried Out Breaded Fish, Salty Shrimp, Baked Fish With Too Much Pepper, Burned Tasting Cowboy Potatoes, Horrible Tasting Sweet & Sour Sausage Patties, Baked Chicken Black Outside & Undone Inside, Meatloaf Swimming With Ketchup. Salad Bar, Dessert Bar, Soup & Taco Bar Are Good. Sorry, But I Felt I Had To Make My Feelings Known In Order For Things To Change.

This restaurant has a policy of keeping customer waiting as long as they can. First they want you to wait in the line to pay for the food, then they want you to wait in front of the "Please Wait To be Seated" sign for someone to show you the seat. You will then have to wait another 10-20 minutes for the staff to notice even though most of the time there are many empty table. The bigger your party is, the longer the wait. The cashier treats you like you are begging for food. The food is way below average to begin with. Help yourself, dont go there!

Well was impressed with the new make over, over course there was always a line getting drinks but the new cocacola machines are awesome! The selection of food was impressed with.. tried the country steak, potatoes first and everything was good temp and taste was good. Even fresh cut turkey which is a plus! The only complaint have it took the server awhile to come around to the table. we had to servers at one point, one was very pleasant while the other not even hello which if want a tip may not be line work.

We went to OCB after having a day at the water park. Selection was descent, and things seemed ok. But about a hour after leaving me, my girlfriend and one of our children became very ill. Contacting our neighbor who is a doctor and he came right over. He said with the symptoms and descriptions he feels its food poisoning. all three of us had salad bar and a couple other common things

Im giving two stars just first this review ONLY. Took my Ma for an afternoon lunch, gave the hostess a $4 coupon for two adults ( one being an senior). The hostess only took $2 off instead of the $4 that was suppose to be. Hostess stated it only applied to me, even though it stated for both senior and adult. She was already having a bad day, however, still do your job correctly.

I go here on a usual weekly basis for Breakfast and Dinner. The waitresses are very nice, and are usually taking empty dishes fairly quickly. The Food is pretty good. Ive been coming here since i was just a child, and with the remodel, it improved drastically. I do wish there was more food choices, and i do wish that theyd go back to making Omelettes in pans and not a flat-top

This isnt the best place to eat. They dont have much to choose from either. If they had a hoagie section, Id go more, maybe. I cant give it more than 1 star. Ive eaten here a few times and never got sick once. But last time I came here, I got food poisoning! Never experienced this before. Never eating here again. At least make sure the food clean of bacteria.....

Old country buffet is a decently priced restaurant. They have a wonderful selection of different types of food, A game room, and a self serve ice cream machine with a dessert table. It is a very cozy setting and also very clean. there is a one star deduction though, because some of the food sits for so long it begins to get cold. I would still highly recommend!
