Buffet Restaurants

Afternoon. Anyone know if buffet restaurants are currently open? Thinking of maybe going to 1900 Park Fare for breakfast...

Some are in Disney but have changed to family style where platters are bought to your table instead of going up to the buffet to serve yourself. Tusker House and Chef Mickey's are two examples that have changed. Not sure about Park Fare.

No I don’t think it is open at the moment, presume you are not going imminently so you can keep checking on Disneyworld. As per previous poster, I would expect buffets to change to family style for the time being too.

Disney ones aren't open as buffets but offsite ones are so there is nothing actually preventing Disney from opening them again.

Yes they have mostly all reopened.

Sweet Tomatoes have all closed permanently due to pre Covid financial reasons

Chinese etc ones like Hokkiado and Ichiban are open

Golden Corral branches have all gradually reopened as far as I know except the one on 192 near Old Lake Wilson. That one is being remodelled as a Boston Lobster Feast buffet.

Ponderosa near that location has reopened

Thanks for the info and typical that the one we usually go to on the 192 is closed
