Pizza Inn adds all-day buffet

Pizza Inn is now offering its buffet all day.

Previously, the buffet was only available at certain times of the day. Pizza Inn says the switch to an all-day version was based on feedback from consumers who requested the buffet be open more often.

“Our buffet has always been a huge success,” Denise Pedini, executive vice president of marketing, said in a statement. “We really value the opinions of our guests and after receiving suggestions that we should offer our buffet all day from some of our customers, we decided to pursue the idea further. So we conducted research and came to the conclusion that expanding our buffet would be the best move. This provides a mealtime solution for moms who need to feed hungry kids right after school, college students that want to eat between classes and teams that need to be fed in between tournament games. It’s a win-win for our guests and our restaurants and we are thrilled to have completed the conversion process.”

Along with enjoying the all-day buffet, consumers can grab a slice of the chain's new pumpkin spice dessert pizza.
