Michelle Humphries

21.38$ for 2 adult dinners before tip. Senior discount ends at 4. Great selection and pleasantly surprised. Passing through great comfort food. Extensive veggie selection, fresh main courses, good friend chicken, nice salad and dessert bar complete with cobbler and soft serve. Courteous staff too. A++

Foodie Traveler

It's not healthy fare, but it's good southern comfort food that fills a need once in awhile! Love their fried okra!

Sandra Vining

Delicious homestyle meals reasonably priced.

Ross Culpepper

Best of the buffet award. Really Really good. They need larger TO-GO cups. Come on guys.....so close to perfect. Why you gonna ruin it with those measly, puny to-go cups?

James Burr

Earline Bell

Wonderful food. Love this place.

Linda Chitwood

The fordhooks didn't have a good flavor,the corn was straight out of the can and at 11:15 there were 4 pieces of fried chicken on buffet. For the price of 11.99 per plate and 2.45 for tea I won't be back for such poor food! I can eat lunch at Golden Coral for half that.

george eng

Foods was awesome and the most friendliest people u every want to meet. The desert was yummy!

Terri Dash73

The chicken and desserts are excellent. But the vegetables could use some work. Mostly just not seasoned and over cooked.

Edward York

I can HARDLY Wait till I can get back to Tifton, to go & eat here again. The service, for what it is, in this style of Restaurant was SUPER. NEVER had to look down to a empty glass. The dessert selection and Quality were Superb! LOVED IT

Jaime Harvey

We loved it! You can tell the place cooks their food with love. Everything was wonderful and the staff were friendly. We have a new go to comfort food place!

Billie Horne

Never have we had a problem here or the other Ole Times in Warner Robins. The food is always fresh and on point! The staff super friendly and smiling constantly. If your ever in Tifton OR Warner Robins, stop in and have yourself some GREAT COMFORT FOOD!! Recommend 110%!

Linda Willingham

The food was very good. But the bathrooms were very,very,bad. Makes one wonder what the kitchen is like. onder what the kitchen what the kitchen

Vicky Childress

Always a great selection of meats and veggies to choose from, very clean, the waitress was wonderful. We went on seafood night, but was pleased to see that they had choices available for those-like the hubs- who don't eat seafood, such as baked and bbq chicken, and pulled pork. The array of desserts also included no sugar options which were surprisingly tasty. My ONLY complaint...should a person want to meet with a friend here but not eat, is not allowed. You are billed full price just to sit at a table.

Don Ward

Don't bother was set close to the register. Heard people being charged different prices for the same meal. Then we got some meat and gravy to take home to our Basset hounds.4.99 lb take out, we were charged 6.99 a pound! The scale showed.36 of a pound was ours! Will not go back!!

Kattie Dills

This place use to be one of my favorite places to eat. Not anymore....It is run down, the foods quality is very poor. No flavor....Some of the employees there look like they could use a rag and a bar of soap. No wonder the food scores there have reached an all time low of 43!

Sherry Cross

It is home county cooking at its best

Moniqueka Hundley

Food was not good at all and it took them so long to put out more Mac&cheese and chicken was fried in burnt grease. Valdosta location is much better.

Phil Walden

Good food at a good price

Swam

I traveled from Cincinnati and this was my first time trying it. I must say, I'm very disappointed that they don't have any other locations outside of GA! The food was very delicious and the staff was so friendly, it felt like I was at a family gathering eating grandma's recipes!

sherry mathis

Good country food buffet. The squash casserole was probably my favorite selection. The food was very fresh. I would eat here again.

SympleeAvette

The food was good. Dining experience was good.

Pamela Griffin

Had to look through 4 or 5 plates before I found one that looked clean enough to eat off of. Food tasted good. But lost my appetite right off the bat. Won't come back.

Julie Lalla

This place is AMAZING! If you ever want to relive Sunday dinner at Grandma's, this is your place. Makes Cracker Barrels food look sad.

Deborah NeeSmith

Home style cooking can't be any better than here. The variety is fabulous.

Kimberly Varnadoe

This is my husband's and mother's favorite place to eat! The food is great, the service is wonderful and those serving the food on the food bar are friendly, fun, and ready to help you in any way they can. They want the food they serve to look as good as it taste!

Susan Lamb

Nice buffet, reasonable price, but kept running out of dressing.

Jude Iz

Country & comfort foods combined. There are numerous options to choose from including soup & desserts. If you are in the area, do stop in, the staff was extremely nice.

Kim K

Great food and service.

Robbie Clements

Everything was fresh and good

Rhonda Tyson

Good food especially the okra that is cooked with bacon & black pepper

LindaS

We stop at Ole Times if we are near one. I think this was our first visit to the Tifton location although this one is smaller than others. Same quality and items as other locations - the best fried or baked chicken, creamed corn and more. They didn't have pork this evening which we've always had at other locations but maybe because it was Sunday. As someone else stated months ago, nothing was labeled but I knew what most were, I had to ask on a few items but any server was happy to help. Everything you want in a buffet - affordable, friendly servers, salads, desserts, breads, and good selection of dinner items. The bathroom needed some repairs (loose and missing floor tile) and tidying up (paper/tissue on the toilet tank and floor), but otherwise it looked and smelled pretty clean.

Renee Schoenberg

Amazing southern country food done the right way. Visit any chance you get!

Lets Affirm

Great food, friendly staff, and an excellent place to grab a bite to eat when you’re out on the road! A+

MB Mead

This was the best Southern Cooking! Great place to have supper!

Brandon Owens

Enjoyed my experience at the restaurant. It was quiet atmosphere and the food was delicious. The customer service was good also. Will definitely go back again when I come back through Tifton.

Phil Pecoraro

I thought the food was pretty good, and for only $11 per person, you can’t beat it! Really nice salad and dessert bars, lots of meat, chicken, pork, etc. The ribs were really good- wish they had a location near my area

Bertha Ruiz

Love it. Jhonny Cabañas is a great cashier at the Tifton location.

Angela Ansley

Food was good, always enjoy this buffet. Didn't have enough servers.

Pam Q

Food was great, from meats to veggies

Jennifer Weatherly

Clean good food

Josué Sánchez

Decent food for a buffet style of restaurant. I was just driving through Tifton Georgia,on way to Florida and stopped here for a late dinner. I usually hate buffet style restaurants but decided to go try this place out because it's near the interstate and we wanted a quick meal so that we could get back on the highway. I was pleasantly surprised at the decent quality of the food and the overall good selections of meats.

Lynn Sargent

My sister and I were traveling through and spotted this buffet. Never have even heard of it. Let me tell you, it was the very best place we have eaten at since we lived in the south and that has been since 1973. It was so good we wished they would open up one around Colorado. The best Southern food in our opinion since our Mother passed. It can not be beat. True Southern hospitality!!! I give it 100 stars if I could.

Jeff T.

Good food and service. Great selection of meats, vegetables, salad and desserts.

Sylvan Yoder

Take your money to golden corral! Food and service were terrible. Not much variety. "Steak night" is paper thin steaks way overcooked, sitting in a bunch of liquid. Only thing worth going back for was rice krispie treat. Waitress hardly came around and had to call her over and ask for everything.

Addalyn Brooks

Something for everyone. Meatloaf is awesome peach cobbler with ice cream alone is worth a trip. Best sweet tea in Georgia.

David Wiggins

I give them 4 stars because, our waitress was very attentive and the food was good. Appeared to clean. I would an will eat there again.

Adrian Whitaker

Still a great place to eat the food is still tasty and like home cook make you eat way more than you should it just taste so good and so much to choose from and the sweet tea and lemon aide is great as well the price just takes the cake just low for all the stuff to choose from might be going back later

Michael Hall

The food is well prepared, but the buffet lacks variety. Sadly there are absolutely no labels on the dishes that are out. The food is all southern comfort food, though there is a salad bar too. The servers are quick to refill a glass and friendly too. The trays are refilled quickly on the bars, but not always with the same food. The dining areas are very clean. The parking lot is spacious, has handicapped parking, and to-go parking.

B Peterson

Great food in Tifton! 45 minutes away from Albany. To get something decent to eat. Albany you gotta do better!

Gator Boo

Best buffet to be found anywhere. The blackberry cobbler will make you want to slap your momma.

katharine robinson

This place has the best fried chicken and greens, my husband and I stop in whenever we're in the area.. Give it a try you wil be happy you did...everything we've tasted was good....

Donna Maddox

Road trip back to Florida, this was our meal planned stop. So convenient to highway and exceptional. I'm not a huge fan of buffets but, this was on point. Clean restaurant and prompt friendly service

Denise Brown

The food was awesome! Fresh and hot food was on the buffet line. The only thing I didn't like were the filthy bathrooms. The sink look like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time the toilet seat was speckled with who knows what and there was a dirty dusty fan in the corner by the sink. Now mind you the crew that I went in with were the first to enter that morning. The guy was just unlocking the door when we walked up so the bathrooms should have been spotless

Charles Jurceka

Country cooking on a buffet? You bet! It made me wonder whose mama was in the kitchen. Needless to say, I LOVED IT!

Angela Black

Love it good food my sister in law work there

Diann Crawford

Some girl brought a dog in and the employees were petting it, none of them washed their hands afterwards. I'm allergic to dogs and this was not a service animal.

Shirley Thigpen

The food was great. I would definitely eat there again.

Cindy Fender

We went on Christmas day to meet up with family. The staff was very cordial, the food was fresh and appealing, and the atmosphere welcoming.

Rick Mitchell

Very good food also clean environment. Would definitely recommend.

Steven Young

Amazing variety of food and desserts!

Lewis Ward

Went on a Wednesday for lunch recently and was surprised to see fried shrimp on the buffet. Great variety and love the home cooking.

Tiffany Brady

Amazing home cooked food. Wasn't greasy or old. Everything was hot and fresh. I highly reccomemd it

Jean W

OMG! Best southern cooking. Can't wait to go back. Black eyed peas and okra. Couldn't believe it. I grew up on this dish. Food was pleasing to eye and fresh and hot. Couldn't get enough of the fruit salad--so good. This is the way southern cooking should taste. MANAGEMENT--give your cooks a pay raise!

John Lewis

Good food but little over priced

Richard Bonner

Love ole times. But only go when your real hungry

Carolyn Y Brown

best soulfood in Tipton, Georgia

Santana Davis

I would never eat here again my steak was raw that floor and tables were dirty and hair all over the place

Donald Pickett

Food here was marginal,the selection was quite poor for a buffet. Additionally, the cashier was more interested and dealing with somebody on the phone those asking 10 minutes of questions that she answered 5 times, and then track down a manager while I stood there and waited to pay my $12 to eat. FYI, if you have someone on the phone that's big ignorant and dragging out questions, You put them on hold, take care of the customer that's gonna take 30 seconds to collect the money and get them eating. And then you get back on the phone with dealing with the Knucklehead..

McKebia Bray

It's Old Time Buffet was pretty good usually wherever I'm staying doing revivals I usually find the Old Times buffet. It was food and rather feeling not the best that's a best of Old Time Buffet what it was very decent some food was hot and some food was warm but the place overall was clean very homey. The ambiance that's what you would expect somewhat in the Old Times buffet. I would definitely go back again.

William Peacock

Have great food and dessert !

Lynne Lucas

Delicious Buffet in Tifton Georgia. Food so good you would think your grandparents are in the kitchen cooking. Had some Salisbury steak so delicious. I'm so happy I don't live near this place I'm afraid I would be twice the size I am now if that were the case. But any chance I'm going through that I can stop I definitely will. Good old country cooking.

Dirtroad Country

Food tasted like I came from a can

David Debs

I have come to like this small chain of southern cuisine restaurants. Some of them (Macon, Statesboro, and Hinesville) are downright cooking up some incredible food. The Tifton restaurant is NOT. While the staff was remarkably polite and efficient the food quality was terrible. The fried fish was like cardboard, truly inedible. The only BBQ was very poorly executed pork butt. There were no ribs or any other non-deep fried protien on the buffet except cubed ham on the cold salad bar. Don't even try the collards- what southern restaurant can foul up collards? Stay clear of this Ole Times and try the others throughout south and southeast Georgia.

Donna Walker

Great service and great food

1st lady veronica Tillman

The food was delicious Me and my husband enjoyed it very much Looking forward to dining there again God Bless you

Stephanie Winters

Food & service was amazing!

Linda House

The best true southern cooking!

Kamilah Moore

The food was fresh. The staff was friendly. However, I would prefer more seasoning on my food.

Brandon Evans

We stop by every time we pass through Tifton, and it hasn't let us down. There's four buffets: entrees, specials, salads, and desserts. Our favorite special is the dry-rub ribs and the fried catfish. Plus, they sell some extra raw vegetables in a small farmers market style line. It's a wonderful place to visit all around!

marley mcclure

Delicious southern food!

C Norslay

Great selection, delicious food, clean restaurant

Bree Shine

Great food and even better pricing very affordable and the food is sees

Juanita Harris

Best southern buffet I've ever eaten at

Jeannine C Lester

Fresh made skins!

Luis Taboada

Service was great. Food was not at it's best. Granted I arrived 15 minutes prior to closing. Staff made it a point I got food i needed before putting away. Stopped in on my way back to GA. I may stopped in one more time for lunch. Again - great service!

Clay Watson

Compared to their Valdosta location, there is not much variety. All of the food tastes salty. Waitresses never refilled our drinks and ignored us the whole time. You pay before you sit down so you have the option to tip up front, so none of the waitresses care about earning a tip. Would not recommend.

Alice Williamson

Not a place I will eat again .The food was shorted no meat people had to stand and wait on some food to be put on the line they charge too much to be getting poor service. A 0 score

Montavious Wells

Great fast many seats great food that

Fannie English

The food and service was good but it was a bit pricey for me.

Richard Peterson

Good food , but a mouse was found in tea pitcher . Yes spout of tea container was slow running . And when all tea was served . Time to clean container a Morse was found stopping the flow of tea. When removed tea came out ok. This can happen any where.

Thomas Gilbert

Food was good I got full all I won't to do now is go to sleep now. Good people and good service.

Larry Peart

Very good food. Friendly service

Big Tim

My personal opinion I love it. facts : it's on the higher end of fairly priced . Some of the food can be greasy. Some of the food can be bland. For the most part the food is very good. The best nights to eat during dinner service is Friday and Saturday night. The rest of the week eat lunch service. The people are very nice. The waiters and waitresses are very hospitable. Overall about 7 out of 10 for me .

Jeff Mcduffie

Good food and friendly service.

Markiva Fleming

Pretty good depending on the time of day that you go.

Cathy Fluellen

This place was great from service to food, and cleaness

Warren Murray

I just have to say this is one of the best restaurants I've ever eaten. The food is just like I grew up on at home and families house. It has by far the best home cooked flavor I have ever had at a restaurant. Love the food and the desserts are to die for. The service is always great. Love Old Times.

Ceasar Phoenix

This buffet is awesome! I was from out of town looking for a bite to eat while on the road, and wow their facility was clean, staff was friendly, and the buffet line freshly stocked. The quality of the food was above an beyond in taste imo. The buffet featured such wonderful items as fried chicken, cornbread, fried okra, grits, polish sausage, quality mac and cheese, pulled pork with baked beans, pizza rice I could go on forever with the variety. Don't forget to try the awesome dessert bar as well. Price was around seven dollars per person, military,first responders and senior discounts were available.
