A lost "all-you-can-eat buffet bonanza" that was a few miles from Liverpool would see customers "queue around the block" to eat there.
Many across Merseyside will remember venturing to Taybarns in Wigan for a slice or rather a huge helping of buffet heaven. The first Taybarns branch opened in Swansea in December 2007 and from there other restaurants in Barnsley, Coventry, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Gateshead, South Shields and Wigan followed.
The Taybarns logo was bright orange and green and the Wigan branch on Warrington Road was one of the first buildings visitors would see as they left the M6. Taybarns customers paid for their food on arrival and ate as much as they could.
