The lost Greater Manchester Taybarns buffet off the M6 where a 'Teletubbies' paint job caused a row

It's passed into memory now, but Greater Manchester's Taybarns once had customers queuing around the block to eat there. Many will remember one of the biggest attractions of Taybarns' food - that there was lots of it.

Giving families a slice, or rather a huge helping of buffet heaven, the first Taybarns branch opened in Swansea in December 2007. Other restaurants soon followed in Barnsley, Coventry, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Gateshead, South Shields - and in Wigan.

Customers would be greeted by the Taybarns bright orange and green logo before heading inside to sit at one of the many tables and booths.
