Good Food. Good Folks. Good Times.
At Johnboy’s, we believe in the simple joys of a home-cooked meal—fried up crispy, served up hot, and always all-you-can-eat! Since 2001, we’ve been serving up our famous fried chicken, slow-cooked Southern favorites, and sweet slices of homemade dessert, ensuring there’s always something on the buffet to satisfy every appetite.
We’re proud to be a local go-to for hearty, homestyle cooking served with a smile. So grab a plate, pull up a chair, and enjoy a taste of the South, just like Mama used to make!

Nothing brings people together like good food, and at Johnboy’s, we make sure no one leaves hungry. Our buffet is packed with homestyle favorites, from golden fried chicken to country-style meats, fresh vegetables, and warm, buttery cornbread. Every dish is made with care, just like Grandma used to make. And don’t forget to save room for dessert—whether it’s a slice of cobbler or a bowl of banana pudding, there’s always something sweet waiting for you.
