A number of places have a time limit. It's all you can eat in 3 hours. There can be rules that you have to eat what you take, and when you take entire plates but barely touch them, the restaurant gets a bit annoyed.

I've been in a few as well After 30 minutes I'm usually full out staying a 3 hour time limit and still eating......

There's a buffet place my spouse's friends were all gaga over. It was a bit of a drive so it took me a few years to actually agree to go. It was like $25 or $30 a person (but free if it's your birthday!) 15 years ago, so it's not like it was cheap. The first thing that struck me is how absolutely cavernous the place was. Like a Walmart filled with tables and food islands. Signs saying where to find certain types of food. That kind of thing.

I might have eaten $10 worth of food. And I have been known to pig out from time to time. But between the mediocre at best food and the "atmosphere"... yeah I had no plans on sticking around to try and get my money's worth.

In the UK we have “JRC Global Buffet” which is almost exactly what you describe. It’s…not great. I went because, like you, some friends were particularly enamoured with the place for some reason.

I wasn’t a fan.

In the US we used to have one called Sizzler. I don’t think they were as expensive as what parent comment is talking about. They kind of made a comeback but not sure if they still do the buffet. It was great when I was a kid in the 80s. Not sure if I’d like it now though. Certainly not for $30, you can get a nice meal at a nice restaurant for that.

Also awesome username btw.

Smaller buffets are better maintained.

This note has a very "or else" vibe.

This note is a parody of an actual note that was about drinking in a bar.
